Dangerous Minds pal Jesse Merlin (currently appearing in Stuart Gordon’s hit musical adaptation of Re-Animator at the Steve Allen Theater in Hollywood) sent me this wonderfully weird film trailer for Mad Doctor of Blood Island, a cheesy, low budget—and incredibly bloody—Filipino horror movie from the 1960s. What makes this particular trailer of interest is the hilariously over-the-top voice-over courtesy of my late friend, Theodore Gottlieb, better known as philosopher, metaphysician and podiatrist, Brother Theodore.
“A barbaric experience in the most grotesque sense!”
I’m 100% certain that Theodore wrote the copy for this, too.
Watch the entire movie—if you dare!—on YouTube.
