Any fans of this one? It's a riot and deserving of DL fandom—ridiculously gory and with a high camp factor. There are chainsaw murders galore, laughable dialogue and performances, a red herring gay professor, and a random scene in the first five minutes where an anonymous female coed crashes through a mirror while rollerskating through Boston.

This was one of my go-to VHS rentals at the video store when I was a teen. It's on Peacock and Roku for free, with ads.

A great, terrible b-movie you can rewatch over and over again. I also appreciated the lead actor's full frontal nude scene when I was a kid discovering this on VHS for the first time. You didn't see that very often and still don't.

Rough trade Greek Chris George at his most down and out. I imagine he got paid for this with a bottle of Jack and a carton of unfiltered Camels.
It's hilarious.

Doesn't this have an ending where a Franken-woman suddenly rips somebody's dick off?

No, that's another movie which I won't name because it's the ultimate spoiler.

"The most beautiful thing in the world is smoking pot and fucking on a waterbed at the same time." One of the best lines in a movie.

Was Chris Reeves in this? God he was so sexy before the wheelchair.

The cute Brazilian is the one that went full frontal, not Christopher George.
A lot of the actors were Brazilian, so it overdubbed. And very badly at that. It adds to the charm of the movie.
The BASTARD! scene was my favorite scene in the movie. Lynda Day George seemingly forgot everything she learned in acting class in this movie.
I imagine the killer's mom is like most DLers mom, except the DLers puzzle would be a nude male instead. A good example of the bad overdubbing in this scene.

There are some great stalking sequences in this movie (the scene where the dancer is killed in the elevator with the chainsaw is fantastic), though much of the gore effects are pretty hokey. When the girl gets stabbed through the back of the head on the waterbed, for example, you can very clearly see the flimsy prop knife bending in half as it touches her head, especially because it's played in slow motion. The whole movie has a very weird atmosphere (it's set in Boston but was shot in Madrid with a mixture of Spanish and American actors) and is at times marginally creepy, but it's mostly pure camp. It is a fantastic slasher movie, similarly trashy like "Sleepaway Camp" is. I have always really enjoyed it.
