Blood? You're bathing in it!

"BRENTWOOD's BLOOD BATH 2 is self-explanatory.
Four exercises in gore for gore's sake, all on a single DVD.
CONTENTS:
JACK THE RIPPER GOES WEST-- What in the world is western character actor "One-eyed" Jack Elam doing in this stinkeroo? Elam's the mean, grungy, drunken sheriff of Mescal, who teams up with a big-city private eye to solve a string of prostitute murders, all in less than an hour!
LEGACY OF SATAN-- A devil-worshipping cult chooses a nubile babe as their new queen.
THE BRIDE-- Woman takes revenge on her cheating husband and his ex-girlfriend by turning their love nest into a toture chamber.
BLOOD SONG-- A really sick flick. An escaped mental patient's murderous spree ends in the pursuit of a handicapped girl. Yuck. Frankie Avalon as the killer (call this one: "Blood Blanket Bingo").
BRENTWOOD's 4-fers are nicely priced movie bundles. Video and sound quality of these digitally unrestored public domain films is generally fine. Discs are dual-side recorded.
If you liked this collection, don't miss the original BLOOD BATH 4 Movie Pack.
