Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Leofwine_draca ANGEL OF DEATH is one of those cheapo Eurocine productions made to cash in on the rage for Italian action/war films in the late 1980s. It was made by the unholy pairing of the infamous Jess Franco with Andrea Bianchi, the man who bought us BURIAL GROUND, and impressively enough it was filmed in Uruguay so it has visual authenticity. The plot is nothing special, involving a commando squad sent into the jungle to track down and kill the infamous Nazi doctor Mengele, and it's mostly an excuse for regular shoot-'em-up scenes of henchmen being shot with arrows or blown up. The film also has an impressive cast of low-rent appearances, chief of whom is Chris Mitchum in a sweaty turn. Howard Vernon is well cast as the sinister doctor, and Jack Taylor plays a good guy for a change. Fernando Rey has also been roped into taking part in the mayhem. With Franco's influence, expect plenty of scenes of young women in distress and wearing very little, and not much in the way of quality.

andreygrachev Weird and funny action in South America film. It is the result of collaboration between two rather bright European b movies masters. And it looks more like Franco's film, than Bianchi's. It is one of those banana super actions, with jungle locations, naked women, senseless story. But it has absurd and drive indeed. It looks like comics in some parts and have lo fi special effects amusement. The characters including Howard Vernon are nice and they make that real-time two-weeks made drive. The fans of Commander Strike, Oasis of the zombies will probably love this super-improvised hallucination etc.www.myspace.com/neizvest

Flixer1957 Name-brand actors co-star with clowns who often worked for Jess Franco in this Dr. Mengele story; the end result gives THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL no competition whatsoever. Fernando Rey and Jack Taylor are Nazi hunters while Christopher Mitchum is a crippled American mercenary employed by Mengele (Howard Vernon.) The pretty young agent who infiltrates Mengele's stronghold is played by an actress named Dora Doll–I kid you not! She gets to see the pathetic results of Mengele's genetic experiments before being beaten and thrown in a cage. The only mutant we get to see is a chimp-man who probably could have made a better movie. Taylor and friends attack the compound in an assault that tries, without success, to match the finale of THE WILD BUNCH. Director Andrea Bianchi apparently had a surplus of blood-squibs; the bullet holes are big and bloody and the red stuff sprays through the air by the gallon, literally painting the screen crimson. However, guns are aimed at soldiers' chests and they suffer head wounds, and Taylor walks out of an exploding building without a scratch. Too bad the real Josef Mengele didn't live long enough to sit through this howler—such torture would have been partial payback for his crimes against humanity.

theslowwizard This movie is horrible, awful, ridiculous, and stupid. I advise everyone to watch it immediately. It has anti-climactic kung-fu slow motion sequences, outraged Jewish circus performers, and evil monkey/human nazi experiments. Watch this and I promise you will be dumber after having seen it. You will probably drop out of college or high school once you behold the magic that is Angel Of Death (aka Commando Mengele). Oh yeah, it was written by Jess Franco and directed by Andre Bianci (Burial Ground: Nights Of Terror).
