Castle Freak (1995)
Directed by Stuart Gordon
An American family inherits an Italian castle which houses a bloodthirsty monster in Stuart Gordon's 1995 creature feature loosely based - of course - on an H.P. Lovecraft story. Gordon's favorite lead actor Jeffrey Combs (RE-ANIMATOR) stars as John, a man involved in an accident that claimed his son's life. Grieving and troubled, the family's unprepared for another blast of horror when the deformed beast starts prowling the halls. Gordon's underrated film is anchored by a dark, serious tone that's unlike his more tongue-in-cheek efforts, but still just as scary.

Has a castle. Has a freak.
seen worse, Combs is always fun even playing it straight. Bit rapey though
Stuart Gordon does not hold back in Castle Freak, which is probably his most disturbing film.
Balls out for a pretty dece movie... took a whole new meaning to "pepperoni nips" she was no pizza bruv.
Love full moon movies. When i was younger around the time this movie came out i remember staying the night at my grandma's house, and i switched on the syfy channel to see there was a horror movie on. Well back then i was terrified of horror films, but i remembered scenes form this movie, but never knew the title. Now i know it was this movie, and glad i was able to finally see it from start to finish. I do feel bad for Giorgio given his past.
