Movie Quote(s):
  • Dean: Professor Brown... you see... is a homosexual.
  • Mary Riggs: BASTARD! BASTARD! BASTARD!
  • Female Student 1: Have you ever been laid on a waterbed? Female Student 2: The most beautiful thing in the world is... smoking pot and fucking on a waterbed, at the same time.
  • Sgt. Holden: Who knows? Right now we're just buying clothes without labels and trying them on for size.
  • Sgt. Holden: I'll send you a box of lollipops.
Movie Trivia:
  • Because producer Dick Randall was simultaneously making kung-fu films in Rome, a cameo for a Bruce Lee imitator was written into this film, even though this scene makes no sense in the context of the rest of the film.
  • The "look" of the killer was based on the comic book character "The Shadow", not as is often thought Italian 'giallo' cinema.
  • A pig carcass was used for the close-up of the chain saw cutting through the tennis player.
