A remake — a loose one — of The Ghastly Ones, this movie has three sisters and their husbands arrive at a remote inn to attend the reading of their uncle’s will. One by one, they are dispatched by an unknown killer. It sounds simple, but this is Andy Milligan. It’s going to get strange.

“Think of your worst nightmare… It’s about to happen again!” That’s what brought people in for this movie and it’s a pretty good tagline. As for the movie, it’s set in the 1800s but obviously shot in modern day Staten Island. And who cares? By this point, if you’re watching this, you’ve given into the world of Andy Milligan.

Margaret (Elaine Boies) and Mary Lennox (Marilee Troncone) work in the Hanley Mansion, which is also home to their mentally challenged brother Carl (Chris Broderick). The master of the house is long gone, but now his daughetrshave finally come to claim their pieces of the estate. There’s Regina (Dale Hansen) and her husband Joe (Joe Downing); Jennifer (Louise Gallandra) and Robert (Peter Schwartz); and Louise and John (Peter Barcia), all of whom must spend three days together to get their inheritance. Well, that is if any of them survive, as the psychic Baba (Bob Elia) predicts at least one will die.

This was also edited into a TV cut, Legacy of Horror, that is a little longer but is missing the gore. That’s so much of the fun, as someone gets their guts sawed into, there’s a decapitation, a hand chopped off and an accidental hatchet to the head.

Legacy of Blood may be the most technically well-made of Andy Milligan’s films, but do we even come to his work for that?
