The Flesh And Blood Show - 1972 - 5/10
Too early to fall into the Slasher genre, this is the timeless concept of knocking off characters one by one.
Cat And The Canary (1927) and And The There Were None (1945) are examples.
Assorted actors answer the audition call at a long shuttered Brighten playhouse.
Soon enough, they realize something is amiss.
Almost a decent thriller this. The location is underutilized, however, and the characters are sketches.
As with the earlier The Big Switch (1968) producers load up the skin to spark lulls.
This is a better film than that one. Acting, photography, script invention.
As with the earlier film, the tempo drags, though flashback and whodunit angle were slick.
