Hell Is Empty

I watched this film in the summer of 69 whilst on holiday in the seaside town of Bournmouth.

It was the support feature to Carry On Camping and, in fact, my companions and I found it a good deal funnier. But, alas, not for the "right" reasons.

Rarely has such a talented cast been put to such poor use. Quite simply this is the corniest, most clichéd, wooden ly directed, direly scripted piece of tosh you are ever likely to encounter.

I urge you to see it.

Anthony Steel plays a gang leader with no redeeming qualities ;James Robinson Justice is the avuncular moral compass ;Shirley Ann Field is (as ever) great to look at, but given a role so shallow and lines so weak that one wonders what the film producers "had over" her, in order to get to participate in this rubbish.

Then Jess Conrad turns up as "good kid" who just got in with the "wrong crowd".

The court room scene in particular is worth enduring the rest of the drudgery.

An absolute scream and a must for all lovers cult tosh.
