2/10
Two stars simply for the audacity.

Warning: Spoilers
It's obvious from the very beginning of this horror-comedy that it's just plain bad because when a blonde bombshell opens the door to someone knocking, she doesn't even scream when a helmutted figure tries to get in. Then when she sees two men with huge knives coming through her window, she doesn't even scream then! the next thing you know, her bloody legs are being taken out of the window, and that's within the first two minutes!

"She looks lovely lying there", The undertaker says, forgetting to add "with or without legs". Ironically, her last name was Lamb, as we learn from the identification of the hideous non-actress playing her grieving mother. So it's no surprise when she ends up on a menu as, well, you guessed it, leg of lamb.

This "Sweeney Todd" rip-off is one of those wretched slasher films that has to be seen to be believed, and the genuinely wretched acting makes it all the more watchable. Looking like rejects from "A Clockwork Orange", the killers seem to hypnotize all of their victims into not screaming. One corpse is definitely a wax dummy, and there's no sound effects to suggest mutilation. Tge only name I recognized was B actor James Westmoreland. Something tells me that the others were simply pulled out of some film student's other college classes. I also feel certain to say that they cast real undertakers.
