Humanity as the worst horror.

This movie reminds me of classic Hammer horror, but it starts movement away from the stereotypes of classic monsters. A surgeon is running from the authorities from using controversial procedures that caused permanent damage, finding refuge in a failing circus. The rest of the film depicts this doctor's fixation and obsession with beauty and the length that he will go for this. Circus of Horrors relies more on psychological tension to depict the monstrosity of human kind when there are not parties willing to keep us in check.

Good lurid fun

In the early sixties Anglo-Amalgamated became the alternative to Hammer for cheap horror thrills but in a more contemporary setting and "Circus of Horrors" was one of their better enteries, (the use of a real-life circus, in this case Billy Smart's, certainly helped). Anton Diffring is the psychopathic surgeon who takes over a circus as a front for his activities but who still can't keep death from his door. There's a greater emphasis on sex than in the Hammer films and director Sidney Hayers serves up a bevvy of European beauties as actual and potential victims. Hardly ground-breaking but fun nevertheless.
