　　A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
　　What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.

　　哥伦比亚新浪潮导演Carlos Mayolo的长片处女作，一部哥特风格的幻想片，获葡萄牙幻想电影节最佳女主角和最佳影片提名。是导演向Roman Polanski的《Rosemary's Baby》致敬的作品。
　　"Flesh of your flesh" is a political allegory trhough a love story, framed into the magical colombian universe. In 1955, in the middle of a military dictatorship, a teenage girl seduces her brother and due to their incestous relationship the lovers are possessed by the ghosts of their ancestors. The two youngsters become vampirical and criminal creatures like those created by the colombian "violencia", mingling with the mythological beings of the countryside like "drafts" and other ghost sowing fear into the heart of men.
　　Directed by Carlos Mayolo. Centers on a wealthy family fighting over the last testament of a just-deceased matriarch. From there, the family members are shown to have an incestuous relationship, and eventually vampires come into the picture, as well as unbridled slaughter.
　　Tropical Gothic Baroque. An extremely interesting film about La Violencia in Colombia which captures the strange social and political heterogeneity of this dark set of events. Mayolo developed his own aesthetic - partly in collaboration with filmmaker Luis Ospina and the late Andrés Caicedo - 'el gótico tropical' in order to convey this strangeness. The film combines local Colombian myths - caspi, la madremonte, el hojarasquin del monte - with themes of vampirism and incest to convey the place of La Violencia within a repetitive and cyclical history characterised by interpartisan conflicts that benefit the empowerment of the Colombian aristocracy.

　　1936年，纳粹军队咱领了莱因兰，一炮未发；1938年3月，占领了奥地利，一炮未发；1939年占领了整个捷克斯洛伐克，还是一炮未发。欧洲处于二次世界大战的前夕，但波兰的布朗斯基剧院却忘记了他们的处境，仍然歌舞升平。在演员们感觉到战争的威胁的时候，剧院的老板兼主演的布朗斯基关心的只是他的戏剧和生意。而老板娘，也是整个城市最耀眼的女明星安娜也忙着和他的情人飞行员安德烈约会。
　　但好景不长，在那不久，剧团接到了演出的禁令，因为他们的演出节目有反希特勒的内容。而飞行员安德烈也飞往英国继续展开对纳粹的战斗，但因为军人们的疏忽，一份印有他们亲人朋友名字的名单落到了间谍萨兰斯基教授的手里。这封可能会摧毁波兰抵抗运动组织的密信事关重大，安德烈受命回国处理此事。但因为安娜的名字在名单上，剧院也被牵扯进来。
　　于是一群舞台剧演员在布朗斯基和他的妻子安娜的带领下，同纳粹展开了一场别开生面的斗争，并且通过他们的演出有力地支持着抵抗运动。为了妻子，布朗斯基冒着生命危险假扮成欧哈德上校，将间谍萨兰斯基教授诓骗到盖世太保办公室(其实是他的剧院)，想诱使他交出那份波兰地下组织名单。教授起初不辨真伪，糊里糊涂将名单献给了“他的德国朋友”。
　　然而，不明就里的教授谈起了布朗斯基与那名飞行员的“风流韵事”，布朗斯基妒火中烧，结果露出了马脚。教授这才恍然大悟，但为时已晚，演员们处决了这个卖国贼。虽然事情由些许漏洞，但演员们还是十分卖力的扮演各自的角色。甚至假扮希特勒蒙骗过当地的纳粹，最终，所有人乘坐飞机逃离了这个人间地狱。
　　精彩视点：
　　《生死大逃亡》改编自德国导演大师刘别谦曾经执导的著名黑色喜剧，开场戏乃公认的银幕经典。本片讲述第二次世界大战波兰沦陷期间，一群舞台演员和纳粹斗智斗勇，防止一个间谍把有关波兰的重要情报送到德国，保护了华沙地下抵抗组织，并且从纳粹眼皮底下成功地逃脱。剧中情节紧凑，笑料恒声，虽然年代已久，但看起来依然乐趣十足，宛如一出《虎口脱险》。片名出自《哈姆雷特》著名台词，是男主角梦寐以求表演的内容，影片表达了导演对二战的控诉。

　　这部描写海盗生活的滑稽音乐剧是使后来在电影界大为有名、并获得奥斯卡奖的凯文·克莱恩成名的音乐剧。其实，这部音乐剧的历史远比大多数人以为的1981 年要早得多。事实上，它最早出现在百老汇上是1879年。但是1981年的重新制作无疑使这部剧获得重生。这部剧在于1981年1月8日在百老汇的俄瑞斯剧院（Uris Theatre）公演，一共演出了772场。在当年的托尼奖（Tony Awards）上拿到了三个奖项。而后，1983年由原班人马出演的电影也十分受到好评，而扮演海盗王的凯文·克莱恩由此登上电影之路，一发而不可收拾。因为《潘赞斯的海盗》剧情诙谐幽默，歌曲轻松流畅，（再有可能是作者已去世，版权的问题简单），很多地方都有小型或大型的表演。专为电视拍摄的录像也有几个。
