User Reviews

Routine and trite.

Hackneyed "did he kill those girls or didn't he" film, with naive barfly Linda Blair becoming suddenly obsessed with a drifter she meets. After having (steamy) sex with him a few times, she doesn't know how to feel after she begins to suspect him of the murders of several young women he's been hanging around.

The curious may warrant a view due to film's obscurity and Linda Blair's shower scene, of little interest otherwise.
