Wes Craven drops a bomb with this classic rape & revenge flick. We've all seen it & love it! The poor teeny girls get abused by a group of junkie degenerates and are killed. Then, by a twist of fate, the fuck -ups get what's coming to them in the coolest ways! The mom's revenge bit is the coolest (i love that scene, but it kinda hurts! oooch!) Just goes to show how underage chicks lead to trouble. David Hess plays the lead nutcase (a role he played many times in his career with the same perfection each time) & keeps this movie afloat. Over the years, I think many have either dismissed or forgotten this movie. If it were released today, the shit would hit the the fuckin' fan & Wes Craven would be bumped out of the film industry. Back then, you could do quality work with no fears! This movie still has retained it's cult status & infamy and hopefully will do so in the future. A coolass digitally remastered rerelease would be nice. One of the great american exploitation classics. Gotta have it!
