1970's "Carnival of Blood" is a maddeningly repetitive, low-budget shocker from director Leonard Kirtman. The helmer has access to select areas of a carnival and a loose idea for a horror movie, trying to present a ghoulish study of mental illness and male rage. However, if there's an idea here for genre entertainment, it's buried under pure padding, with Kirtman working especially hard to get "Carnival of Blood" to 90 minutes, offering viewers the tedium of various real time events.
