About

If you enjoy trashy, over-the-top Euro slashers with lots of blood and sleaze, this could be a fun ride, especially if you’ve seen Count Dracula; Not for you if you want tight pacing, believable characters, or subtle horror.

Pros: gnarly gore set-pieces; campy, bonkers energy; sleazy Euro vibe | Cons: slow first half; bad dubbing and dialogue; thin, silly plot
