Review :
Corny but fantastic entertainment!
'Circus Of Horrors' is one of the most entertaining movies it has ever been my pleasure to see! It is corny and melodramatic, and the plot is totally ludicrous (which is one of the things that make it so special), but you can't help but get caught up in it. Anton Diffring is wonderful as a brilliant plastic surgeon who flees England in disgrace and ends up running a French circus which he stocks with criminals and prostitutes that he has operated on. He wants it to be known as "the Circus Of Beauty", but it gains notoriety as "the Jinx Circus" after several mysterious deaths, all performers who intended leaving him. You get the picture. Diffring really makes the most of his role and it is impossible to keep your eyes off him. The supporting cast includes several fine British character actors, including 'Halloween's Donald Pleasence (who is in the most unintentionally hilarious scene of the movie, I'll say no more...) and Kenneth Griffith (a familiar face from countless movies and someone who fans of 'The Prisoner' will recognize as a #2). There are also a handful stunning beauties on screen, particularly Yvonne Monlaur (Hammer's 'The Brides Of Dracula'), who plays Diffring's adopted "niece", and Erika Remberg, who went on to appear in the erotic classic 'The Lickerish Quartet'. This movie is fantastic fun for 60s horror/suspense buffs. Highly recommended!
