i be at a distinct disadvantage here . i have not see the first two movie in this series and although i have see a lot of larry cohen film . fan of the series seem to think this be a good film . judge it on it own and it be pretty boring . you never get a real good look at the maniac cop ( robert zdar ) face and but what i do see be pretty grim . the death scene seem to be stag to eat up the most film and not to give any thrill . maybe if i saw the nc 17 director cut and i may be more impressed . the end with the car chase with zdar and caitlin dulany and and robert davi be pretty intense . best part of the movie .
