Cult horror from Herschell Gordon Lewis. Montag the Magnificent (Ray Sager) is a travelling magician whose stomach-churning illusion act culminates in the public killing and disembowelling of young women in front of a seemingly bloodthirsty audience before magically returning them to their seats unharmed. However, when the women in question start to turn up dead, apparently victims of some random violent crime, questions start to be asked of Montag, who must try ever harder to maintain the illusion.
