Just This Side of a Gore-Fest
24 August 2012
There is something here that subversively attracts and repels concurrently. That's its edge of persuasive power to compel the viewer to take part in its revenge, self-defense operandi.

Some stylish atmosphere and splatter effects paint the picture just this side of a gore-fest. It moves along at a low-budget, jerky, jump-around pace that makes the ride a bit bumpy, but there is enough gratification to allow the shortcomings to pass as a production restriction rather than a flaw in the design.

Tightened up a bit, and yes, just a bit more of the outrageous, this might have gone to that place of cult status reserved for the Psychotronic intelligentsia. Still it has its place in what used to be called "drive-in" movies and grind-house flicks.
