kevin w Do you want to see nubile babes tied up, stripped nearly naked, terrorised by a maniac, and squirming in fear? Welcome home, you poor deviant kid. And Mickey Hargitay is superb as your doppelganging nutjob ranting about purity and sacrifice to beat the band, alone in a castle and simply waiting for victims. Yes, there's the obligatory snoozefest that's merely the set-up for what's coming, but hang tight because once the action gets going, it'll be worth the wait. They should remake this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Almost so bad it's entertaining, but i was sober with not one else to socialize about the movie with while viewing, so it didn't leave anything but a negative impression. The Excecutioner himself is fucking hillarious with his over the top un-trained acting the girls were there for the sleaze of it and there could have been abit more gore considering this was a time when drive in blood bucket films were being established. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Does exactly what it says on the tin. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member An intriguing premise that could have made a great film is muddled by sadism, a paper thin plot and characterization and is completely devoid of chills or scares. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member There is a ton of padding to make this 87 minutes. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member 76% "My vengeance needs blood!"-Travis "The Crimson Executioner" Anderson (Mickey Hargitay) Due to its cult status, I thought it was going to be weirder and a tad more kinky. It wasn't the case. Still, needs to be seen by those looking for bad movies. Filmed in Psychovision! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
