What is this movie? It certainly isn't a horror movie. This was made back in the 60's and is called Maxie (if I read the credits right). Some idiot changed the name, played up the fact that the cook from Alice and the bride from the Godfather were in this. Just plain boring and stupid. What on earth is this movie about and where is it going. Don't rent this, complete waste of time.

Pretty boring low budget flick about a Butcher and his not-so-normal helper that seem to get a dead body or two delivered to the shop. What happens with the bodies? You never really find out. A deaf girl is suspect of knowing about the deliveries and so the shopkeep and his apprentice intend to ensure she never spills the beans. No real gore, except the but butchering of a chicken, and a mild demise of one of our actors in the end. I fell asleep a few times during this.

Probably the worse movie I have sen in the last 5 years. Vic[Mel from Alice] Tayback is horrible. He had to dye his hair in this movie. He looked younger here then he did in Alice. Where is the horror ? Where is their any gore? Thalia Shire from the Rocky movies is like an invisble lady in this garbage. 0 stars I can't believe this was made into a movie.
