Brides of Blood is a horror movie released in 1968 directed by Gerardo de Leon and Eddie Romero. The movie begins with a group of scientists venturing to an island in the South Pacific to test the effects of atomic radiation on plant life. Upon arriving on the island, they discover that the native villagers are living in fear due to attacks from mutated creatures that are the result of the radiation experiments. The scientists soon realize that they are not the only ones on the island, as they come across a mysterious compound run by a Dr. Paul Henderson (Kent Taylor).

Dr. Henderson introduces the scientists to his wife Annabelle (Beverly Hills) who is suffering from a strange illness that causes her to have seizures. Despite being warned about the dangers of the island, the scientists decide to stay and help Dr. Henderson with his experiments. It is not long before the scientists begin to realize that something sinister is going on at the compound.

As the story unfolds, the scientists learn that Dr. Henderson has been experimenting with radioactive materials in an effort to create a new strain of rice that is resistant to disease. However, his experiments have had unintended consequences as they have caused the island's native creatures to mutate and become dangerous.

In addition to Dr. Henderson's experiments, the scientists discover that the island is also home to a group of beautiful women who have been mutated by the radiation. These women are under the control of the island's tribal leader (Mario Montenegro) who has convinced them that they must sacrifice themselves to appease the gods.

As the movie progresses, the scientists must work together to escape the island and stop Dr. Henderson's dangerous experiments. Meanwhile, they must also contend with the mutated creatures and the brainwashed young women.
