SlasherReviewer I enjoyed this movie and you have to give it credit as well as it was made in the mid 70's. Black Christmas is a way better movie but that was from a movie genius Bob Clark. SPOILERS AHEAD...This movie revolves around a stalker who has hid himself in a house and makes obscene phone calls from inside the house. One obscene call I liked was "I wish those breasts were pushed up against me". No it's doesn't have the harsh language that Black Christmas did like "Little pink pus%@". If it wasn't for this movie Scream and the Ghostface killer in the late 90's would of never been thought of. Slasher reviewer gives this one a thumbs up and says if you a true slasher fan you will check this original flick out. Some minor gore as well to satisfy gorehounds but tame. Worthwhile 70's slash and hack!!!
kita117 I am surprised I did not fall asleep on this movie at all. This movie is very very very very boring, and it does not make sense that you are able to see the obscene phone caller so so soon. Please don't buy this movie, and don't rent it either. You would think since these were the makers of Don't Look in the Basement that it would be good. Please take my advice.
ehoshaw I admit it. I love this film. True, it has it's drawbacks...like how in many scenes you hear a lot of camera noise and see the boom mike popping up here and there. Also, this thing is real low-budget. However, the acting is retty good (especially from Susan Bracken) and there are some scenes that are really chilling. The plot deals with a curvaceous blonde named Amanda returning to her hometown to care for her sick grandmother. Years ago her mother was stabbed to death there by an unknown slasher. Once she is back at the house, a freaked out transvestite starts axing random folks and calling Amanda, seducing her and whispering perverse lines over the phone. The music is cheesy but good and there are some really creepy scenes involving dolls and a lot of twisted little touches. The gore is low and the ending is somewhat disappointing, but overall this movie is quite watchable.
Clayton Talk about dull: this southern-made "horror film" seems to reach >its highest peak of unintentional humor when the camera repeatedly zooms in on the killer's hidden face making a phone call to his next victim. Film looks as if it was shot on a $100 budget. Shame, shame, shame.
