Something Weird (1968)

A man is brutally scarred and gains ESP after being electrocuted, then seeks the help of a witch to restore his looks in exchange for his loyalty and sexual devotion. He then uses his new powers to secure fame and fortune while doing the witch's evil bidding. The title couldnt be more appropriate, since the film is an LSD-induced nightmare. It makes little sense, and what does make sense is both boring and stupid. None of the defining HG Lewis blood or gore are anywhere to be found, just a bumbling psychic and even stupider policemen. I would say the worst acting is easily performed by the witch, but when the scale goes from terrible to terribler, its hard to rate the cast in terms of terriblest. This is a big pass, nothing interesting going on the entire film.

Rating: 4/10.
