70s Slasher Fans Should Check It Out, 10 September 2012
Author: rabiddog67 from Woodsfield, Ohio

A low budget slasher film that is well-done despite its low budget and some uneven acting. The gore is handled well and the direction is pretty good. A disturbed young man hears voices (or does her?) telling him to kill women who are not pure and deserving of punishment. One unlucky jogger resists his advances and she and her boyfriend get a visit from the psycho. Another woman ignores his hello and pays the price. A prostitute, of course, is going to have to pay for her lifestyle. Meanwhile, a New York cop investigates as the killer leaves parts of his unfortunate victims scattered throughout the turnpike. The killer meets a "nice girl" and he believes she might be "The One", chosen for a purpose I will not disclose here. Pays homage to 70s slasher films lime Maniac, and definitely has its share of nudity and violence.
