Haiku Review of a Bad Movie

By Dana CrandellPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Not much budget here.

"Slasher" with a long, straight sword

Classic bad horror

***

My first entry for Matthew Fromm's fun challenge, which you'll find here:

I'm something of a bad horror movie geek, and this is one of my favorites, circa 1971. Rumor is, it was produced with a budget of $50o, and if you watch it, that's believable.

If you have an hour and a half or to waste, you can see the entire thing here, with a little commentary at the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckbCtrPYorA
