- DirectorCurtis HansonStarsTab HunterCherie LatimerNadyne TurneyHorror and suspense in the story of a psychotic maniac who literally "loves" women to death.This movie should have done for Tab Hunter what "Carnal Knowledge" did for Ann-Margret. What started out as a character study of one man's descent into madness got butchered by Roger Corman into a run-of-the-mill gore flick, only without much gore or the necessary character development to make it compelling.
- DirectorJack StarrettStarsJody McCreaMarie GahvaDan KempGang of sadistic cowboys let nothing stand in their way in their search for gold.A low-rent quasi-Spaghetti Western that was a sad postscript to Joel McRae's career.
- DirectorMichael ArmstrongStarsFrankie AvalonJill HaworthDennis PriceTeenagers gathered in an old mansion are being murdered one by one. The survivors must discover who among them is the killer before he finishes off everybody.Frankie Avalon was cast in this proto-slasher for marquee appeal, as well as Jill Haworth, fresh from her originating the roll of Sally Bowles in "Cabaret".
