Preceding the "psycho killer on a rampage on a holiday" era of horror films by a few years, this film manages to wring a fair amount of suspense and some well-directed murder scenes out of its miniscule budget. An eerie musical score, Andy Warhol veterans Ondine & Candy Darling in cameo roles, & the presence of Mary Woronov aid in the film's success. One complaint: It is VERY poorly produced resulting in most of the film being overly dark.
