Well shit... another re-make. But still with the names attached you expect a little more. Montague The Magnificent (Played by Crispen Glover) is a "Magician" killing people on stage and then after the "illusion" is over everyone witnesses them get up and leave the club all fine and dandy. Only to be found dead later exactly like they were killed on stage.
Crispen Glover was not as awesome as I had hoped. He can be so creepy when he wants. He shows up on stage as a bad televangelist type. Jeffrey Combs is unrecognizable. Every scene with Brad Dourif is awesome. He just kicks so much ass you can't turn away.
But still all the kick-ass actors and the awesome amounts of nudity don't really help. The movie is kinda cool and has it's moments but will never compare to the artistry of the H.G Lewis original.
Plus side though it has a shit-ton of special features. Commentary with the director, writer producer and ass. editor. A Making of featurette, Effects featurette, Suicide Girls featurette, deleted scenes, outtakes and more.
