Yes, it's dreadful but then you seriously didn't think it would be anything else? "Berserk" was Joan Crawford's penultimate cinema release and at least she gets her name above the credits. She's the owner of a circus where the performers are dropping like flies and she made the film in the UK so the cast includes the likes of Diana Dors, Michael Gough, Robert Hardy and Judy Geeson. The male lead is a mostly shirtless Ty Hardin who probably needed the money to pay for his alimony. Indeed, this may well be a camp classic; it's certainly impossible to watch it with anything like a straight face and while Joan may be stiffer than a poker, at least you can't take your eyes off her.
