Viewing Notes

Due to time constraints, we skipped Human Centipede in favor of Iglesia’s Balada triste de trompeta, aka The Last Circus, for our third film in our Halloween Movie Night.

This movie isn’t a typical “horror” film (none of our Halloween Movie Night movies this year were classic horrors); it’s more about the horrors of a fascist society, as it’s set during the Marco years in Spain.

I can’t begin to describe all the craziness takes place, other than to say it involves some seriously deranged clowns and veers off in directions you don’t expect.

I’d love to do a double-feature of this and Santa Sangre.
