"The mad Count De Sade lives in his families' (sic) castle located on a remote island. Count De Sade keeps his wife locked up in a dungeon below the castle and his insanity strike (sic) fear into the staff. After a terrible storm, a ship's captain and the son of the ship's owner find themselves washed ashore on this lonely isle, not knowing the danger they face from the evil Count De Sade," according to the DVD sleeve's synopsis.
This hilariously awful spoof of "The Most Dangerous Game" could obviously be better, with a bigger budget and more directorial flourish. But the script, by Pat Boyette and Henry Garcia, is quite wittily written; and, the performances are delivered with appropriate tongues-in-cheek. Although its satirical intent serves to negate it as a "so-bad-it's-good" movie, "The Dungeon of Harrow" should appeal to followers of that genre.
