OK, let's see... why do we rent a film entitled "CASTLE FREAK" with a stupid looking monster on cover? 1st reason might be we did this by luck, searching through the horror section of the local video store. 2nd reason is we like the GORDON/COMBS combination and NEED to check this out.
I personally HAD to check it out, expecting at least few gore/splatter/bloody scenes and of course I dig Jeffrey Combs. As I read in a fan site of his "... some act bad in good movies...he acts good in bad ones!".
There is gore, don't expect anything too much, 2 or 3 scenes, there is nudity and there's Jeffrey Combs who manages to raise interest in his sad role. So, I don't think it is worth it for the gore, as the monster thing & monster plot is a big joke, but I recommend this to Combs fans.
