This ridiculous low-budget horror comedy is surprisingly effective, mostly because it's done with a tongue-in-cheek 1950s style. The clueless thugs are stereotypically stupid and sociopathic by turns, your average "world's dumbest criminals" greaser gang straight out of some public service film that crime just doesn't pay, folks, which was much more common 20-25 years prior to Meatcleaver Massacre. I understand why this movie gets so many low ratings but I honestly feel it's a solid hidden gem that can be enjoyed a couple of generations later. I bet this was wonderful at a drive-in back in 1976 or 1977.
