I've only seen CASTLE FREAK once, way back when it first hit VHS. I was disappointed in it at the time, maybe because I was expecting something more like RE-ANIMATOR or FROM BEYOND instead of the angry, sad film I got, so subsequently I don't remember much of it. But I've never forgotten the bit with the nipple. I'd also like to point you towards a review written by my good friend Kent Beeson, a mixed-positive review that I think is just beautiful: http://murielcommunity.blogspot.com/2012/04/john-dies-at-end-castle-freak.html?m=0 Last: oh my God, I had no idea the FX guy for CASTLE FREAK also did ANTHROPOPHAGUS and ABSURD. Hooooooly shit. Do a double on those, but don't read anything about them beforehand.
