TAKE A DETOUR TO "MALATESTA'S CARNIVAL OF BLOOD" AND YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF HORRIFIED




If you've ever thought of movies as art, then this one's right up your alley. Lovers of B-flicks should definitely dig this one as it is almost impossible to describe. Suffice it to say the main components are an old carnival, a manager that turns out to be a vampire and some ghastly ghouls in residence...The Sheer Horror!! Gotta go full award on this one - Two & 3/4 Pinewoods - great footage inside old amusement park.
