HORROR HOSPITAL

Antony Balch, UK, 1973, Shout! Factory, Horror

A trashier take on THE ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES, with all sorts of weird stuff happening in every scene. Legendary British actor Michael Gough (Alfred in Tim Burton’s BATMAN) stars as the depraved proprietor of a “health hotel” in the English countryside. When a burned-out rocker (Robin Askwith from the wacky CONFESSIONS film series) and his sexy new girlfriend arrive for a relaxing vacation, they're instead trapped in a nightmare of psycho bikers, cheeky dwarves, rampant decapitations, gratuitous nudity, lethal luxury sedans and a diabolical plan to create a slave army of lobotomized zombies. Skip Martin (VAMPIRE CIRCUS) and Dennis Price (THEATER OF BLOOD) co-star in this campy cult favorite from writer/director Antony Balch, who’s more commonly known for his film collaborations with William S. Burroughs!
