I usually enjoy the cult movies from Al Adamson but brain of blood was positively one of his worst,the movie poster makes it look like a pretty good movie.Adamson brings most of the cast from Dracula vs Frankenstein like Zandor Vorkov,Regina Carroll,Angelo Rosito and john bloom and the results are embarrassing.its a brain transplant ala Frankenstein.Kent Taylor plays a mad surgeon who pits the brain of the kindly ruler of another country into the head of a big drooling idiot played by John Bloom who plays the part like he did in the 1971 classic the incredible 2 headed transplant,which is way better then this film.Grant Williams (incredible shrinking man)plays another Dr who is the friend of the ruler.the plot thickens there's murders galore,one man is scorched by battery acid,there's explosions,a car chase and a monster that resembles the monster from the brain that would'nt die.i was really expecting a better movie but really i was disappointed.a bad movie thats so bad,its bad.

This is a cheap-o movie made by Al Adamson--a man who was perhaps the worst film maker ever--even possibly worse than Ed Wood, Jr.. Adamson specialized in extremely low budget horror and skin films during the 60s, 70s and 80s and with such titles as FIVE BLOODY GRAVES, HELL'S BLOODY DEVILS, SATAN'S SADISTS and LASH OF LUST it's obvious he wasn't making Shakespeare!! His movies all had rotten production values, sensations, gore and amateur acting.Here in BRAIN OF BLOOD, several stock Adamson actors (such as his wife, Regina Carrol, Zandor Vorkov and Angelo Rossitto are along for the ride and had appeared in Adamson's previous film, Dracula VERSUS FRANKENSTEIN. This is fortunate because the prior movie was so terrible and so poorly executed on every level that BRAIN OF BLOOD can't help but look good! Sure, the makeup is laughable, the plot dumb (it involves the ubiquitous brain transplant scheme) and acting is level Z, but it's STILL better than their last film! About the only positive things about this film are that aging supporting actor, midget Angelo Rossitto actually had a better than usual part--with more dialog and a more important role in the plot--and there is actually some sense of danger and tension at times. As for Ms. Carrol, she STILL looks like a stripper and the rest of the cast limp through this silly flick. However, it's bad enough that it makes for good watching by bad movie fans--you've just gotta see makeup on the guy with acid burns as well as the ray gun that appears to be made out of an old tail light!

I'm not sure I've ever seen a film as bad as this. Awful acting, All over the place plot, terrible special effects. There are some 'so bad its good' moments in here but not really enough to maintain interest. The woman who plays Tracey looks hideous. There are some fairly worrying scenes with a dwarf which leave you feeling ever so slightly violated. On the plus side the operation scenes are fairly amusing for the special effects as is the car chase where one car is "trying to force us off the road" without actually making contact. Guess the budget didn't stretch to trashing cars. Oh and what looks like a Postcard of the Taj Mahal is shown every time they cut to the fictional foreign country.

A bit of a disappointment, this one. It didn't have a lot of effects and wasn't really all that funny. Sure, the acting was bad, but bad acting alone is not enough. More effects, blood, cardboard sets, please!If you like these old B-flicks, go see Baron del Terror (aka the Brainiac), it's much better.
