Warning: Spoilers
Yes Spoiler Alert down the road. Unexpected, to be sure, An off screen narrator fills in the blanks connecting this phantasmagoria of possible situations, running through the mind of a young lady coming of age. I was expecting, (and hoping for exploitation) and got a touch of it. and more. It had the feel of the early seventies; A certain "Russ Meyer" brand of spontaneity, as evident in his 1975 movie, "Supervixens", a story that could lead anywhere. This movie Directed by John Hayes who also wrote it. was fun viewing as it shifted narrative directions. It was made with care, It was well shot and edited. The ever beautiful Brooke Mills is easy on the eyes. Edmond O'Brien provides a strong male lead, in an otherwise quirky cast. It is, after all, in the dream world of a disturbed young lady. It is the blending of reality and dream world that makes this one more intriguing as it progresses. The blood never looks like blood. a welcome imaginative touch. A fun waste of time for the home bound viewer. Seven out of Ten "Let Daddy take care of it" Stars.
