This film is laughable bad. It seriously is crap. It contains a Duke who is actually some other guy who has taken on the body and mind of teh duke. In my mind that pretty much makes him the duke. What else is left. There's nothing horrifying about despite the name. Ha God it's crap. I bought it for 99p and it's not worth any more than that. It's just so unbelievably stupid. This mightn't be the most articulate review ever but if you see this film you'll understand. It's also full of historical inaccuracies to name a few
1) Jack plays a napoleonic soldier who has got lost from his battalion after the battle of Auswitch. Well he has got seriously seriously lost as Auswitch was in Austria and he ends up beside the sea.
2) This Napolenic soldier dspite being really bad at orientation does eem to be quite clever as he has invented the revolver and given it to the onset of the 19th century
3) The Baron/duke who is apparently austrian but could be Italian if the geography worked out abit better prefers to adorn his castle in French and English standards rather than those of his own nation.
But the greatest shock is Francis Ford Coppolla made this film!!! Well I suppose we all have to satrt somewhere
