Hilarous and entertaining

When people say exploitation it seems to downgrade a movie but this movie was great. The acting in this is very good which helps catapult this movie into more than a simple 70's T and A slasher flick. The dialogue with Caleb and Lester is hilarious.It reminded me of Norman Bates. Of course the women in here are simply for show and tell but that wasn't really the point. Seeing this guy's madness develop is something to be seen.

This movie was good TBH. Erik Stern was good in his role as Caleb/Lester. Talk about a nutcase. I remember one screw up in it though. The scene when he jumps in the pool with the garden hose and "drowns" the woman by ramming it down her throat. Before they start struggling she's wearing a bikini. In the next scene she's completely nude. I can't recall if it came off during the struggle or if he removed it. That or it's one big flub by the editors.

Long live the 70s!
