*Walter Paisley, nerdish waiter at a Bohemian cafe, is jealous of the talent (and popularity) of its various artistic regulars. But after accidentally killing his landlady's cat and covering the body in plaster to hide the evidence, he is acclaimed as a brilliant sculptor - but his new-found friends want to see more of his work. Lacking any artistic talent whatsoever, Walter has to resort to similar methods to produce new work, and soon people start mysteriously disappearing...*
I saw this for the first time back in the early 90's.I was going through a bit of a horror drought and one day while I was looking through the TV Guide,I came across it.I read the little synopsis for it and it sounded ok so I put a tape in and taped it.When I went to watch it,I wasn't expecting too much but by the time it was over,I knew I had just watched a classic.This movie is in the same vein as The Little Shop of Horrors but I believe A Bucket of Blood is actually the better movie of the two.I was able to find to find a copy of the Bucket of Blood/Attack of the Giant Leeches DVD today and Bucket of Blood is still a cool flick.Dick Miller is perfect as Walter Paisley and its great seeing Walter loose it more and more with each statue he makes.
