This got re-released in 1985 in my area when the first wave of "X" rated horror films (like Re-Animator and Day Of The Dead) swept the theaters.
However, unlike some drek (I'm looking at you "Mutilator.") THIS was worth finding.
It's a thriller with horror scenes in it. And David Hess just EATS the scenery with his role. I always enjoy watching him play his style of utter creep. It made the film.
The payoff at the end was the only wrong point. They knew all along he was the one who raped that one guy's sister? So they set this up? Allowed the humiliation and pain? Just to get him in the end? Bullcaca! Just have them kill him and his pet geek. No need for the rape angle at all.
The pet geek by the way was Giovanni Lombardo "John Morghen" Radice. The same guy that got his head drilled in "Gates Of Hell" and got his wanger lopped in "Cannibal Ferox/Make Them Die Slowly." He has a knack for scene making himself.
And Lorraine De Selle, another CF/MTDS veteran was also there. She's better than you think.
But Hess owned the film. Thumbs up to him.
