A film about some mentally deficient man who likes to mangle and scalp pretty girls so that his mother can sell them as wigs.

In the beginning of the film, you'll be greeted with two talking mannequin heads followed by a knife shoved into the temple of one of the factitious heads with gore pouring out. Also what to expect is tedious dialogue scenes, hot girls who don't get naked (BOOOOOO!), and a few gory death scenes.

Probably the worst film ever conceived, but my complexity takes its toll and somehow I found myself infatuated with this film. Not recommended to serious film lovers.

Not Herschell Gordon Lewis' best effort, it definitely lags behind his more infamous works like "Blood Feast", "Wizard of Gore", and "Two Thousand Maniacs". The idea is pretty solid: a good-girl Nancy Drew type investigates why all her friends are mysteriously disappearing and who is making such excellent wigs. I do like the rather twisted idea of scalping women for wigs because it is just so wrong, it's like Sweeney Todd but only in '60s Florida. The gore is there, and frankly if you are going to watch one of Herschell Gordon Lewis' movies, that is what you are there for; but aside from the gore the rest of the movie struggles with poor pacing. Definitely not the movie you want to start your Herschell Gordon Lewis ride on, but if you've seen his better works and are still hungry for some more low budget splatter, this will satisfy.
