A gang of inner-city punks go on a killing spree inside a run down tenement building, intent on making the building their own. Some extremely brutal scenes of torture and death make this among the ugliest films of the 1980s.
Possibly Roberta Findlay's most technically proficient effort(with a few unusually competent performances), still it's grade Z trash all the way.
Recommended to those who enjoy an edgy, disturbing movie experience, but sensitive types need not apply.
5/10
