super psycho fun!
13 August 2000 | by (usa) – See all my reviews

A silly, sick, hilarious movie! We had so much fun--saw it on a rainy night in NYC; the theater was packed and a rollicking good campy time was had by all!

You'll remember many gems of dialogue--especially a line from Nicholas Brendon that rivals fellow "Buffy" cast member Allyson Hannigan's shocker in "American Pie"!

Anyone with the slightest affection for those AIP beach movies will love this one. Terrific soundtrack too--why no album???
