Aside cheesy gore, YOU GOTTA LOVE CAMPY!!!!!


Question- Was anyone reminded of the 1960's comedy style of Adam West's "Batman"? I mean c'mon, look at those crazy costumes and funny as heck action/terror scenes. Yes, there was a lot of slapstick gore to make it a quote "horror" movie but all of those brightly colored sets and wonderful actors showing such "realistic" senses of mystery,terrifying fear & heroic bravery! Holy Cow Batman! All they needed were the "BIFFS & POWS!" & music.....just imao though.

I agree! The spider and broken skeleton had me absolutely howling with laughter!

Yeah, it's not a good movie (honest folks), but the camp value is off the chart. A better movie with a similar look is Danger: Diabolik.
