This is not a super good movie by any means; however, it was very entertaining as we get a strange movie that has lots of gore, chainsaws, nudity and also an ending that made absolutely no sense. Not talking about the killer's reveal, that is obvious from nearly the start, no, the very ending where something more supernatural occurs in a film that has had nothing remotely supernatural going on!
The story, a boy is putting together a puzzle of a naked woman which, of course, outrages the boys mother. Nothing more evil than the human body (rolls eyes that we still take such issue with it here in America). Well, this makes the boy upset and he axes his mother. Said boy is also able to convince everyone he is just a scared boy. Well, flash years later and we see a woman get her head lopped off at a college. Seems the boy is now at this college and has gone off his rocker again as coeds begin being chainsawed left and right. But never fear, the cops send in one of theirs as a tennis instructor and recruit a plucky student to help find the killer. Chances are, you will figure it out as they really do not add many suspects to the mix, but once they close in on the killer, you will really get no explanation as to why he started up again...
Christopher George and his wife Linda are both fairly good in this film. The rest of the cast are overdubbed by the same team that dubs everything in Italy as I recognized nearly every freaking voice. The plucky kid was kind of annoying to me as he was bedding everyone he could and though the ending made no sense, at least the oversexed moron got hurt....granted, I would have been satisfied with a bloody nose.
Once again, it is not the best film out there, but it was a fun watch. I kept hoping for a reveal as to the killer's reasons for doing what he did. I know his end game, but why start up 40 years after you axed your mother? I guess I am thinking too much about it, probably more than the filmmakers did when they added a scene of Linda Day being attacked by a karate guy for no reason whatsoever...
