At first, I didn't like this one - especially back in my younger days. I just couldn't get into it. Maybe it was the shoddy camera look, but I've since ruled this out because I like such forgotten culters at Cannibal Campout and 'Lunchmeat' - No, not myself, the movie.
Anyway, this one has a mean streak a mile long. There's no emotional resistance whatsoever - There's no qualms about doing away with everybody, the more off the wall, the better - baseball bats with barbed wire around them, bashing an old mans skull. A slithery killer sneaks in the back seat of a car and strangled Mom to death with a wire. Daughter see's the carnage, faints, and the killer backs over top her. There's someone getting stuffed in a hot Groen presure cooker, the kinds used in school cafeiterias. Drills to the head. False intentions. You name it.
While it sounds like I'm overglamourizing it a bit, and I may very well be, I respect its accomplishments despite its obvious low budget.
Was this shot on video? Anyone?
