| User ReviewLee ?I'm watching this fucking movie again... "The Mad Butcher" always makes me smile. |
| User ReviewSimon TDespite the no-budget sets, the pedestrian direction, the clunky dubbing... ...there is something rather endearing about Victor Buono channelling Sweeney Todd as he turns those who cross him into delicious sausages. It's a comic riff on his earlier - and superior - The Strangler. |
| User ReviewOrlok WVictor Buono excels in this amusingly lurid horror black comedy hoot--Meat is Murder!! |
| User ReviewGretchen BQuite slow moving, but fun to watch for those who can appreciate the sleazy and cleverly dark humor. Similar in some ways to 'The Green Butchers'. |
