{"product_id":"bloodbath-in-the-house-of-knives","title":"Bloodbath in the House of Knives","description":"Regional horror films are the sort of thing every film maven lives for. I remember well the days of noting strange titles on drive-in marquees and wondering about their origin. Every one of us knew at least somebody who caught The Night Daniel Died on a one-week run or discovered the original Night of the Living Dead at the bottom third of a week-end bill. And once in a great while we too might have found something special at 2:30 AM on a local TV station. Because having access to this sort of experience is what made you cool among other film geeks.\u003cp\u003eSo I was delighted that Mr. Ted Moehring would elect to send me his giallo, \u003ci\u003eBloodbath in the House of Knives\u003c\/i\u003e. Made in the isolated town of Boyertown, Pennsylvania (and surrounding environs), \u003ci\u003eBloodbath\u003c\/i\u003e is a neat little film that shows how people with limited means can still create something to hold the attention. Using a cast of unknowns, it manages to capture the spirit of \u003ci\u003eBird With The Crystal Plumage\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSuspiria\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plot is complex: a nightclub hypnotist puts a man in a trance. Suddenly, the trancee goes on a rampage, killing a member of the audience before he is felled by a bullet from an unknown shooter. Meanwhile a sinister figure in black wearing a Greek theatrical mask is randomly killing people. And a woman named Ivy keeps getting threatening phone messages from a stalker. Are the killings related? And when is the intrepid police detective going to put it all together?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are a number of effect-laden murders, none accomplished with CGI as well as good use of lighting, color, and a surprise ending. - Timothy Mayer\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha Video","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":45802861199510,"sku":"089218106391","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/9621\/5446\/files\/089218106391.jpg?v=1762206418","url":"https:\/\/moviezyng.com\/products\/bloodbath-in-the-house-of-knives","provider":"Movie Zyng","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
