The Brides of Blood Island (released internationally as Brides of Blood, as well as Brides of the Beast, Danger on Tiki Island and Grave Desires) is a 1966 Filipino horror film directed by Eddie Romero and Gerardo de Leon from a screenplay by Cesar J. Amigo, and starring John Ashley, Kent Taylor, Beverly Hills, Eva Darren and Mario Montenegro. It was the first movie that Ashley made in the Philippines, beginning a long association between Ashley and that country. The Brides of Blood Island was the second in a series of four horror films produced by Romero and Kane W.

Brides of Blood was later released to television syndication in some areas as Island of Living Horror.
