BLOODY PIT OF HORROR

Welcome to the most outrageous psychosexual classic in Italian horror history. When the crew of a saucy photoshoot breaks into an abandoned castle, they unleash the wrath of the Crimson Executioner (Mickey Hargitay, Jayne Mansfield's former hubby). Dressed in a bright red costume and possessed by the spirit of a 16th century madman, the Executioner gleefully subjects the trespassers to a variety of bizarre and elaborately conceived tortures. With special effects by Carlo Rambaldi (ET) and a script from the screenwriters of Mario Bava's KILL, BABY . . . KILL!, BLOODY PIT OF HORROR is a beloved camp classic that features cheerful sadism, an abundance of near-nudity, and a wonderfully over-the-top performance from Hargitay.
