Review By Xmortis
This film is about a gas station worker, also a vet of the Vietnam War, who is having a hard time being normal in his homeland. A young rich woman stops at the station to get gas and pays via credit card. Our craven worker gets her address and decides to invade her home. He forces her to pleasure him orally at knifepoint all the while he screams horrible things about death and the war. After she is finished, he slits her throat and leaves her dead. The next morning he is at work and is fine with the horrible act he did the previous night when another attractive young woman looking for directions shows up at his station.
He tells her the way to the place she is staying, and he follows her home and attacks her in the shower. This time the crazed vet forces the woman to do all types of depraved sexual acts by gunpoint before he decides to stab her to death. The following morning, a young hippie woman picks up another hippie woman, and they make the mistake of stopping at the gas station. The vet is annoyed at the sight of the two drugged out girls and asks for the driver’s address. That night he goes to kill the two girls. He watches from the window as the girls take drugs and make love to each other. This sets him off, and he enters with gun in hand. However, something’s not right. The girls are not scared, and they giggle and taunt the Vet, who has a final flashback and takes his own life.
This is a sick and twisted horror film mixed with a porno. The film is filled with flashbacks to the Vietnam War, which are mixed with modern times. The crazed gas station war Vet is played by Harry Reems, who pulls off a crazed killer to a T. The actresses who play the victims do an outstanding job as well, and when viewing the film, you feel uncomfortable witnessing the deeds. Great grindhouse style film.
The DVD and the extras are nothing special, handful of old porn loops and trailers. The print is very grainy and filled with age marks (which adds to the film). The DVD artwork is amazing with a great design that adds to the uneasiness of the film itself. Overall this film is worth a watch for fans of such horror classics I Spit on Your Grave, Last House on The Left or even Choas. And classic porn fans will also want to buy this nice piece of cinema sleaze.
