Critic Reviews
-
Stefan Birgir Stefansson, sbs.is
Perhaps the worst movie ever made.
-
Steve Crum, Video-Reviewmaster.com
Truly bad film with Lugosi hamming it up, yet marginally entertaining.
-
Phil Hall, Film Threat
Although it carries a horrid reputation, it is actually one of the greatest comedy films ever made.
-
Ken Hanke, Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Wow! Mesmerizingly bad with a nice late in the day turn from Lugosi
