I Tre volti della paura or Black Sabbath (1963) was an Italian gothic horror movie directed by Mario Bava. Boris Karloff, in addition to starring in the wraparound segments, has a role in the third and final story. The film comprises three horror stories: "The Drop of Water", "The Telephone", and "The Wurdalak" (based on a story by Alexei Tolstoy).

In 1969, a heavy blues-rock band named Earth decided to change their name and agreed that the title of this movie would be a nice fit for their burgeoning heavy metal sound. This band, Black Sabbath, later rose to much acclaim.
