The Mad Doctor of Blood Island is a 1969 Filipino horror film, co-directed by Eddie Romero and Gerardo de Leon, and starring John Ashley, Angelique Pettyjohn, Eddie Garcia and Ronald Remy.[1]: 83 

It was the third in a series of four Filipino horror films produced by Romero and Kane W. Lynn known as the "Blood Island" series, which also included Terror Is a Man, Brides of Blood and Beast of Blood. Beverly Miller was associate producer on this film, and later went on to co-produce several other Filipino horror films. This film dared to go a step further than Brides of Blood in the nudity and gore department.[1]: 72 

The plot involves a man traveling to an island where a mad scientist named Dr. Lorca is creating human/ plant mutants with chlorophyll blood out of the local natives. The film was later syndicated to television as Tomb of the Living Dead.[2] It was also briefly known in certain states as The Mad Doctor of Crimson Island.
