Castle Freak
Jeffrey Combs plays John Reilly who visits Italy with his wife Susan (Barbara Crampton) and blind daughter to visit a 12th century castle they've inherited. Unfortunately the castle comes with a resident freak in the basement and he's not best pleased to be house-sharing...
There's not much I can really say about this film. It's generally crap I think. The acting is alright but the characters are fairly annoying and I found myself rooting for the freak. To be frank, I watched this a couple of days ago and can barely bring myself to remember it. We started watching it on fast forward towards the end because we were getting bored. It has some moments tho - a highlight being when the Freak rips off his thumbs to get out of a pair of handcuffs. Gross!
Generally, tho - this film's just really not very good. I wouldn't bother, like. There are better films with similar plots...
