Bay of Blood 1971 R, 82 min. Genre: Horror / Thriller / Mystery aka: Last House on the Left, Part II Carnage Twitch of the Death Nerve

Director Mario Bava is at his gruesome "best" as killings are accomplished in every manner possible, and the film may still hold the record for body count. It also inspired many slasher movies to follow, including the "Halloween" and "Friday the 13th" series. Oh, there is a plot of sorts: a fight for the inheritance of land on the bay.

This comedy/spaghetti Western begins with Hiram Coburn (Bud Spencer) seducing Mary (Dany Saval). But Hiram doesn't know that Mary is the sister of feared gunslinger Sonny (Jack Palance), and now Sonny has vengeance on his mind as he pursues Hiram. Some good laughs in this otherwise so-so film.
