        They got the Gore part right! Even with the bad special effects, the scenes where Montag is ripping open the stomachs of his volunteers & especially the scene where he's poking the eyes had me squirmng.It's a cheezy gory horror flick with horribly bad acting that's so bad sometime you can't help but laugh.I'm not into gory horror flicks at all but if you are, You might like Wizard Of Gore

        Herschell Gordon Lewis really was an innovator and is the true Godfather of Gore and this film is just a damn good time. The blood, gore and violence is gratuitous (albeit not realistic at all so if your one of those types that needs gore to look as realistic as possible you'll probably be dissappointed.) Montag is probably among the coolest horror villainss ever and his between trick banter is classical (probably even more so than this movie itself.) The soundtrack is awesome, the acting is appropriate for what this movie is,and the ending didn't disappoint. Must see for fans of trashy, low budget horror awesomeness. If your false don't entry.

        If you've seen a lot of horror movies form before 1970 you can see how Lewis ushers horror into a new gorier era with this film. Not only that, the story is great, especially the weird ending, it's awesome. I love this movie, and if you're a horror fan you should see it.
