Flesh For the Beast
(Terry M. West; 2003)
(Media Blasters / Shriek Show)
-Overview-
At the turn of the century, a notorious occultist named Alfred Fischer conjures up a brothel full of ravenous demons in a bizarre ritual. Taking the form of beautiful women, the beasts demand a steady diet of fresh prey that only a human servant can provide. Almost a century after Fischer meets his mysterious end, a team of parapsychologists investigated his manor for signs of restless spirits. In no time they are besieged by sexy demons, a madman with a secret past, and a horde of slaughtering zombies.
Never in my life have I seen a film with so much gore and gratuitous graphic nudity and been so bored senseless. Flesh For the Beast clearly wants to shock the viewer, and tries way too hard. A lame plot, horrible acting, and pathetic gore plague this production. The gore is so bad in fact that it looks like they are using cooked spaghetti dipped in red paint among other things that don’t even vaguely resemble anything that resides within human anatomy for “guts”. Don’t bother.
