I am trying to watch more black and white movies and a friend loaned me The Sadist. I popped this sweet gem in the DVD Player and was treated to a pretty dark and sick look at humanity. Arch Hall was a complete maniac and I was hooked as soon as he shows up in the movie. SPOILERS:When the sadist shoots that dude in the head, that makes for a shocking piece of film for 1963. I laughed my ass off at the laugh that Arch Hall has. The snakes could have been left out of the final scene, but I still got a good chuckle out of them. If you want to watch an oldie but goodie, then watch this. "How many bullets I got left in my gun Mr.?" 8/10
