    A bit lame
    A bit of a disappointment, this one. It didn't have a lot of effects and wasn't really all that funny. Sure, the acting was bad, but bad acting alone is not enough. More effects, blood, cardboard sets, please!

    If you like these old B-flicks, go see Baron del Terror (aka the Brainiac), it's much better.
