Description: A machete killer attacks a picnic party, but can the mother stop his rampage?
Review:
One of the cheapest, nastiest, creepiest, most disreputable little grindhouse flicks ever to make its way onto film reels. Sexist, racist, moronically simple yet weirdly entertaining, it is probably one of the most disturbing slasher prototypes of the pre-Halloween era, a potent blend of bad taste, sadistic violence, and sex. Three hippie chicks and a dude are hiking in the woods. Two of the chicks pair off and wander into a clearing. A lesbian encounter ensues, but the dykes find themselves confronted by a cackling nut-job sporting a yellow ski mask and brandishing a two-foot machete. Barking out orders in a Southern accent, he soon has the four hikers performing his sexual bidding with the threat of his machete looming.
The opening credits of this VERY low-budget sleazefest feature the theme from PSYCHO. (I'm sure the producers paid handsomely for the right to use Bernard Herrmann's theme). I don't think I'll summarize the plot even though this technically is a Review I'm writing. Suffice it to say this is not a movie to watch if you're offended by incest, r@pe, racial epithets and some nice scenes of humiliation thrown in for good measure. Here is the cast: A man wearing a ski mask who possesses a big machete + mother, brother, sister, hairy girlfriend of sister -- all of whom just want to take an innocent trip into the forest . . . but Mr. Ski Mask has other ideas. Oh yes, and there's a black man tied to a tree as well. The sister runs into him while trying to escape from Mr. Ski Mask. But Mr. Ski Mask With The Big Machete catches up. Uh-oh. Somehow I doubt VCX will be re-releasing this anytime soon, esp. with the PSYCHO theme played in its entirety. A peachy movie to watch with a group of people you really hate.
