Summary |
"Seeking a gothic background for a horror photo shoot, five sexy cover girls and a handful of photographers break into what they assume is an uninhabited castle and are soon taking a series of macabre stills in its dungeon." Unbeknownst to them, there in the castle resides a demented actor who thinks he's the reincarnation of the Crimson Executioner, who will soon subject these trespassers to a number of bizarre and elaborately-conceived tortures. |
