Castle of the Creeping Flesh
A garish, yet moody European horror chiller. After his daughter is brutally murdered, a crazed surgeon vows to resurrect her from the dead. He begins killing innocent victims and purging their bodies of vital organs in his mad attempt to bring his daughter back to life. This is definitely not for the squeamish as there is beaucoup amounts of nudity, violence, and actual footage of open-heart surgery. There is also a rape scene. Almost over the line for us, so please, keep this one away from the kids. A must for Euro-horror fans, though.
