William Girdler's "Three on a Meathook" is obviously inspired by the Ed Gein case.It's a very bizarre tale of a twisted murder and cannibalism in the tradition of Tobe Hooper's "Texas Chain Saw Massacre".There's plenty of nudity and cheesy gore,however the film is not as gory as the title suggests.Still there are some good kill scenes,a good amount of blood plus a nice plot twist at the end.The film is quite slow at times,but its low-budget gives it a raw look.Highly recommended and a good companion piece to "Daddy's Deadly Darling"(1972)-another grainy horror masterpiece from early 70's.
