- According to Steven Scheuer's guide, Bloodsucking Freaks was directed
- by Joel Reed. The reviewer (who obviously hated the flick) lists an
- alternate title, namely The Incredible Torture Show.
-
- I rented a video version during the summer. It features some delightfully
- campy bad acting and dialogue. The gore reminds me of some of the
- better passages in Juliette (by the Marquis De Sade). Pleasantly
- tasteless and outrageous. This is a film to be avoided by the truly
- prudish, but prurient hypocrites and fans of the Grande Guignol (sp?)
- should enjoy. People who don't care for the tongue in cheek stuff won't
- find it as attractive. (It also has lots of female nudity which is
- probably why they didn't bother to send it to the MPAA to be rated.:)
-
- Another tacky tongue in cheek gorefest is Psychos In Love. Also a must
- for people who like Psycho-style shower scenes. (Three of 'em if I
- remember correctly!) Again, lots of female nudity so it would be
- un-American to let the kiddies see this.
-
- To fake blood and excessive nudity,
- Eric
