Flesh Feast - 1970 - 3/10

Grade-D nonsense, that I knew beforehand was atrocious, but I was coaxed.
Veronica Lake (final film role) as the mad Dr. Frederick, who experiments with maggots.
The goal? Restore youthful appearance, if not youth, to the subjects.
How’s that grab ya? Let maggots crawl around your face.
Cheap by every imaginable standard. Film seems to be shot in one house, with one camera.
Characters deliver lines in monotone, with zero interplay. Amateur hour all the way.
Final five minutes sizzle, unless you have glanced at 99% of reviews, in turgid twaddle.
