"Stuart Gordon's best since Re-Animator/From Beyond"

" Lance Henriksen plays one of the best roles of his entire career as Torquemada. He decides whether "witches" are guilty or not and when they'll be burned for the eyes of God."

"I'd like to bring forward Jeffrey Combs...my favorite B-movie actor and frequently cast by Stuart Gordon. His role is pretty limited but very well acted. "

" Oliver Reed has less than 10 minutes of screen time as a heavy-drinking Cardinal who comes to visit Torquemada and try to get him to ease up on the mass killing a little, but trust me, you'll remember his scene long after the movie is over. "

" I had high expectations, and it turns out that they were solidly met, but in a manner that I never could have anticipated. For all the oddness of what this is and represents, I can most certainly understand that this won't appeal to all comers. For those who are open to all the wide, weird flavors that cinema has to offer, however, the result is honestly nothing less than exceptional. Think well on what it is one looks for in their viewing experiences, but if you're open to the strangest of kaleidoscopic cornucopias, 'The pit and the pendulum' is a rich, striking, outrageous modern classic that deserves much more recognition!
