The Comeback (1978)
7/10
Suitably gruesome British shocker.
22 July 2007
"The Comeback" stars singer Jack Jones as a faded singer Nick Cooper,returning to Britain from the States to record a comeback album.Meanwhile,a transvestite maniac in a wig,fright mask and granny-dress has killed his ex-wife and starts knocking off everyone close to him.Typically gruesome Pete Walker's shocker filled with suspense and bloody murders.There is also an air of self-parody here plus a good deal of humour,still fans of Grand Guignol horror shouldn't be disappointed.I have only seen two other horror films made by Pete Walker "Schizo" and "Flesh and the Blood Show" and I'm highly impressed.So if you are a fan of British horror or slasher flicks in general give this one a look.
