Night of the Bloody Apes / Feast of Flesh (Special Edition)
Night of the Bloody Apes (1972, 84 min.) - It's a sex-crazed monkey man looking for love! Informed that son Julio will die of heart disease, Dr. Krellman does what any good mad doctor would do: give Julio the heart of a gorilla. Oops. Somehow the frail young man turns into a "horrible half beast, half man" with a muscleman's body and a monkey's face (sort of), embarking on a hilarious frenzy of over-the-top gore and gratuitous nudity as he attacks women and mutilates men. Daddy then surgically swaps Julio's simian heart with one taken from, yes, a female wrestler. Double oops. With eye-popping footage of an open-heart surgery and periodic wallowing in women's wrestling, "Night of the Bloody Apes" is a cockamamie cult fave so berserk it's brilliant. "Feast of Flesh" (1967, 70 min.) - A crackpot sadist with a monster mask and claws stabs people with syringes and transforms women into zonked-out love slaves, making the swingers of a South American beach resort into his very own Feast of Flesh. Also known as "The Deadly Organ," it's more twisted madness from the director of "The Curious Dr. Humpp!"
