Movie Info

The owner of a haunted Italian castle cannot imagine what possessed him to drag the voluptuous models, who have come to his digs to shoot book jackets for a horror writer's latest novel, into his medieval dungeon and torture them. Perhaps it was the sadistic spirit of the castle's former owner, the dreaded Crimson Executioner.

Audience Reviews for Il Boia scarlatto (Bloody Pit of Horror)(The Scarlet Hangman)(A Tale of Torture)

Do you want to see nubile babes tied up, stripped nearly naked, terrorised by a maniac, and squirming in fear? Welcome home, you poor deviant kid. And Mickey Hargitay is superb as your doppelganging nutjob ranting about purity and sacrifice to beat the band, alone in a castle and simply waiting for victims. Yes, there's the obligatory snoozefest that's merely the set-up for what's coming, but hang tight because once the action gets going, it'll be worth the wait. They should remake this.
