| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIf you love bad films, this one is irresistible. |
| User ReviewBill BThis one was just ok. I liked the Party Beach one better. Not the worst B but not the best either. Oh and Roy Scheider was in it. LOL! He's so famous for being in Jaws. Sometimes you see great actors in these old second rate movies. |
| User ReviewChris TNot bad, not bad at all. Very creepy elements and a pretty great premise. A slasher film before slasher films exsisted. Could have done without the bumbling cops though. Who knew such a horror film staple exsisted in the 1960's. |
| User ReviewDaniel FThis was supposed to be the Big film in the twin bill with the "Horror of Party Beach". Wrong, it was the girls in bikinis, monsters and bikers that brought them in droves to the Drive In theaters. My mother was a Production Assistant (Ruth Freedman) and was very proud of finding a horse drawn hearse for Del Tenney. She picked out Roy Schider as being an up and comer. |
| User ReviewRichard HPredictable, and silly at times, but not without a few good moments. Roy Sneider does a fine job. Unfortunately, the film does not manage to lift itself off the ground or gain audience interest. It remains stagnant and easily forgotten. |
