Saying that it's not really a horror movie doesn't really make much difference. It's not. I think the two movies Peter Carpenter made back to back in 1970/1971 are really interesting to watch for the beautiful locations and people. That they're bad movies, or that Carpenter was a third-rate Tom Jones wannabee, or that they weren't horror movies is irrelevant. I enjoyed them.Rockfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00896460122706448592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149411832127844385.post-70241194994017835102009-10-28T00:20:20.587-04:002009-10-28T00:20:20.587-04:00db, I read that review and I recommend it to the r...db, I read that review and I recommend it to the rest of you as a hilarious second opinion. But I've just seen <i>Satan's Slave</i> (don't know if I'll review it, though), and I can see those two in the same collection.

I put this on at random with no expectations and liked it quite a bit, but the totally confusing title and the weird intro (which is misleading in the same way as the intro to Messiah of Evil) could definitely throw that off. There's no question Boobs Are Awesome is a much more fitting title, hands down.dbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610914455757359201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149411832127844385.post-1937837601417949332009-10-20T14:26:02.575-04:002009-10-20T14:26:02.575-04:00Excellent entertaining write-up!

BTW, you probably know this, but Luis de Jesus--aka Ralphus from BLOODSUCKING FREAKS, the second-most-evil dwarf in all dwarfsploitation for my money--played an Ewok in RETURN OF THE JEDI.<br /><br />COINCIDENCE? :)<br /><br />I figured there might be very little actual blood mania in this one, but I'll still check it out at some point--if only for the boobs. :)<br /><br />I like boobs.

What a bargain, right? In any case, BLOOD MANIA is indeed a title to lurid & good to be true, & I'll still watch it, but thanks for the heads up on this one. I kinda glossed over the review 'cuz I don't want too many details goin' in, but I get the gist of it. I might put this one off until after my more "serious" Halloween viewing is wrapped up.J.
