8/10

Decent British mystery/slasher.

Performers auditioning for a British "Grand Guignol" show are murdered in mysterious ways in this deranged horror directed by Pete Walker("Frightmare","Schizo","House of Whipcord").The film is pretty creepy and offers a nice amount of sleaze.There are decapitations,drownings,psychotic elderly tramps,naked women and some gruesome killings.The cinematography is pretty gloomy and the location sets are suitably eerie.A must-see if you're a fan of British horror!

Trivia
When Jenny Hanley refused to appear naked on screen, director Pete Walker inserted full-frontal nudity using a body double (reportedly one of her co-stars), resulting in a formal complaint from Hanley's agent. To make it even worse, the double had much larger breasts than Hanley.

Goofs
As Luan Peters investigates the prop room below the stage she makes a big deal of brushing away cobwebs, but there aren't any.

Alternate versions
Has had two different releases in the UK, the early eighties 'Vampix video' release presented the flashback scene in 3-d, while the more recent 'Satanica video' release has the flashback sequence in black and white.
