i first saw this movie on a local station on the sunday afternoon horror show back around 1969 or 1970. uncut . i be just a little kid at the time and but i love it and wasn not really that scar by it . i think it have such a cool and highly original storyline . think back and i be still surprise that it be show during the day on t. v. uncut in those year . i have seek out this film ever since and see it over and over again and and always love it . one would think john water would have idolize this film . it get to be not only a scary film and but one of the sleazy and trashy film ever make at that time . and surprisingly and you do not hear about this one a have the cult follow that a movie such a blood feast or the hill have eye have acquire over the year . it have a cult follow and but it should have really become a cult classic and in my opinion . as far a i know and this come out a little before blood feast come out and make this probably one of the first true gore film . in fact and this movie have element of hershell gordon lewis and a little rus meyer throw in for good measure . anyway and i recommend this for anyone who like trashy and sleazy and black and white horror film from the early 60 ( i think the date at the end of it read 1960 ) .
