Plot

A small-town doctor is stoned to death by the citizens of a city in 1959 after they discovered he had killed seven of the townspeople. His seven year old son is placed in an asylum. Forty two years later, he escapes and seeks revenge on the city that killed his dad.

Pros

Lots of creative deaths and fake blood wrapped around a simply told story. There are plenty of cringe-worthy moments.

Cons

Yes, the doctor giggles and it gets annoying. The plot has tons of holes and you don't have to watch very hard to see them. It could have used more gore, what film couldn't, and where are the naked ladies?

Extras

  • None

Recommendation

It doesn't take a genius to know what you're getting when you pick up a DVD by this name for $2.99. This is really a film for horror fans to watch together late at night after a few cold ones to have fun with.
