The most disgusting horror films #2

Blood Sucking Freaks



The thing about Bloodsucking Freaks that makes it so hard to watch isn't that the effects are so good - in fact, it's quite the opposite. The gore in this notorious 1976 cheapie looks horrible. The dismemberments, skull-drilling, and other tortures depicted in the movie are utterly unbelievable, but it's the balls-out sadism with which it's presented that puts it over the top. The cast of Bloodsucking Freaks - including the degenerate midget Ralphus, (Louie de Jesus)—look like they were just plucked from a Times Square torture dungeon and told to act naturally. It could almost be a documentary, but with spawning some of our best 80's catch phrases like, "chainsaw's for ankles", and "fingers for backgammon", how could it not appear near the top of the list.
