A cult classic with Anton Diffring, outrageous Donald Pleasance, and a weirdly sexy Kenneth Griffith. Oh, and a gaggle of scantily clad babes.
It's surprisingly lurid for 1959/60 -- and yet in a sanguine manner only a '60s films could achieve.
Diffring plays an excruciatingly unethical plastic surgeon on the run throughout Europe, hiding behind his traveling carnival of death as a front.
Oh, and that song! The movie is everything Joan Crawford's later BERSERK should have been. In fact, I tend to combine both movies in my head into one magnificently rococo, downmarket picture. Which totally works for me.
