Master Sardu, a theater owner, has a show in which he tortures and kills women. He is able to convince the crowd it is all a trick, and is waiting for a good review from a local critic named Creasy. When Creasy refuses to give him a good review, Sardu and his midget assistant Ralphus kidnaps Creasy and tortures him in an attempt to get a review that will make his show a hit. When that fails, Sardu kidnaps ballerina Natasha, whose boyfriend is a star football player, so that she can provide recognition and class to his show.
Oddly enough there the only blood sucking that is done is by an insane doctor, who is promptly dispatched by the cage full of naked women who eat human flesh that Sardu keeps in his basement.
The acting is laughable and Sardu reminds me of an Eric Idle character. The torturing women theme is disturbing. While watching the film, I thought the director must hate women but then I learned that his funding came from an S&M theater group interested in making this type of film. Ick.
