The likes of Robert Englund and Sid Haig look bemused for the most part (Until Englund fights himself) at the illogical goings on but the pace is so fast i just didn't care about any misgivings other than the seemingly metaphysical ending which was just nonsense.
For once the great poster art doesn't lie. Remember that un-PC attack i mentioned earlier? |
Ha ha, always so much fun and gets better with every viewing. I reckon the psychedelic ending makes it though, and the maggot attack is actually sleazier than the poster! I'd be tempted to dig out its equally freaky sister movie 'Forbidden World' this afternoon if I didn't already have 'The Feast' and 'Blood Delirium' lined up and ready to go.
