7/10
excellent horror comedy from the master
24 September 2002
Very bizarre and somewhat effective horror film w/ Price as the mad doctor out for revenge. Cotten is pretty dull (but so is his role), but Price is campy fun. Some of the killing is pretty gruesome, and definately different (a pilot killed in his cockpit by rats, a brass unicorn spears through the heart, etc.). I like the opening very much, with the robot orchestra. There are also many odd film compositions here. Humor is a spice for this film, which is not essentially a comedy, and much ofit is levelled at the cops (Mr. Trout).
