The Pit and the Pendulum (1991)

Set during the height of Spanish Inquisition. The beautiful and kind-hearted Maria is arrested as a witch when she inadvertently cries out in horror at the public whipping of a child. As Maria's husband Antonio tries to save her, Torquemada, the Grand Inquisitor, determines to punish Maria with torture for the desire she inflames in him. Loosely based on Edgar Allen Poe's classic short story.

Nobody Expects the Spanish Inquisition! And I never expected this film to be so bad. The only redeeming things in this film are Jeffrey Combs as a hilariously anachronistic inquisitor and Lance Henriksen the wonderfully creepy grand inquisitor with the bad Barnet.

Really, Mr. Gordon? This film never really decides if it wants to be a serious condemnation of the atrocities committed in God's name or if it wants to be over-the-top camp a la "Re-Animator." The plot is simple: a beautiful woman is arrested on charges of being a witch, but it turns out Torquemada just has the hots for her. Her intrepid husband tries to break her out of jail but ends up getting arrested himself. They are both tortured until Maria uses her newly-found gift to exact revenge. No, it doesn't make sense. The inclusion of bits of "The Cask of Amontillado" and "Fall of the House of Usher" was nice, but it ultimately didn't work for me. Lance Henriksen was fine as the Grand Inquisitor but he is absolutely wasted, as is Jeffrey Combs in a stupid wig.

Gordon, Combs, Bay and of course Henriksen makes for a good time no matter what. Some dark humor and graphic scenes make for an entertaining watch, though the whole thing doesn't ever really come together in a mood as it's rather all over the place. Still, warrants a watch for the avid horror fans.

Lots of big names in this movie if you can spot them. What makes it creepy is it went on back in the day. Gotta love those wacky inquisitionists.
