Viewing Notes

A groundbreaking SFX sci-fi horror movie with some shocking gore for its time, Fiend Without A Face seems tame and B-movie-ish now. Of course that didn’t stop me from loving the hell out of it.

It’s a really fun movie and seems ripe for a good remake. This was the Criterion disc from Netflix.
