    Fun Fact: The ONLY reason why Jess Franco agreed to direct ths movie was the producers claimed they were going to get Pink Floyd to do the music.

      Sure, but is Jess Franco also an idiot? On what possible grounds would he think the producers of low-budget Euro slashers would have the juice to get Pink Floyd? In 1981, they had released The Wall and were working on the acclaimed film that eventually accompanied it.

    As someone who recently got a PhD... Yeah, they're a load of crap more often than not. It's not about being knowledgeable or intelligent or analytical so much as it is showing off that you can stick with a single project longer than two years and then tell your committee what they want to hear. Which goes a long way towards explaining why the doctor just kinda...let's the murderer go.

    This movie could have been so much better if Miguel was depicted as being legitimately sane after those five years (they could have changed the opening scene somehow to depict him having an isolated psychotic episode). More emphasis on the gaslighting/blaming of Miguel could have been really effective, especially considering how much he loves his sister.

    Also, the "Wop wop wop wop" sound effect in the soundtrack officially occupies the space formerly occupied by Cowbell, seeing someone in a studio with a sheet of metal, waving it back and forth in time to the music, like a robotic maid hanging her sheets...

      The movie was a West German co-production. Even though Franco was Spanish, he had difficulty working in his homeland for many years, because he kept running afoul of local censors and the Francoist government. He was enough of a pariah that they put him on a blacklist alongside Luis Buñuel for a while.

Did he disown any other one of his besides this one?

    I realize its diffrent physical actors but its werid hearing the same voice actors as Torso, doing kinda of the same character.

    I think Castle of Fu Manchu was considered one of the worst movies MST3K ever did.

      What's really scary is that it's far from Franco's worst.

    German title is "Saw of Death". I dont see a saw. But I sure hear it. And yes that killing tool at 15:53 looks like such because its a medival torture device. Do your research, you're a self proclaimed reviewer!
