WOW! This is absolutely the weirdest movie ever made...and a fun time to watch! The Godfather of Gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis made this movie very quickly to be used as a double bill with the abysmal "Something Weird" which at the time was not doing well on it's own at the theaters. This was his first "gore" film after making the infamous "Blood Trilogy" with producer David Freidman. Even though this film was a "rushed" work, it still holds it's own with some of the most outrageous scenes ever filmed including the opening segment (a conversation between 2 mannequin heads complete with construction paper faces that seems to last an eternity)a strange "film within a film" segment at a drive-in movie theater and a beach scene that boasts what is probably the worst performance by a band ever recorded on film! No Herschell Gordon Lewis classic would be complete without the gore and this film is LOADED with it...you'll see girls being scalped, decapitations, livers torn from abdomens and eyes gouged out. The trailer for this film brags that it is "The wildest motion picture ever made" that is the understatement of the twentieth century!
