A violent gang of teenage miscreants terrorize their city with a rash of cruel practical jokes, vicious assaults, and random vandalism. When one of the hoods threatens an upstanding young man named Doug (Rodney Bedell), the gang's leader Dexter (Ray Sager) nixes the fight. Some time before, Doug came to Dexter's aid during a street brawl, so he feels that he owes him a break, but only one. Doug isn't intimidated by the gang and doesn't shrink from a confrontation when he catches them bullying a group of children. With Dexter's obligation met, the gang begins a campaign of harassment that targets Doug's girlfriend Jeanie (Agi Gyenes), and the violence quickly escalates beyond control. ~ Fred Beldin, Rovi

This minor gore-comedy from cult director Herschell Gordon Lewis stars Elizabeth Davis as an elderly wigmaker. Her son murders women and scalps them to provide hair for the wigs, choosing victims from the college students who rent rooms in their home. The humor is of the slapstick, vaudeville nature, and Lewis' gore effects had become no more convincing in the four years since his first horror outing, Blood Feast (1963). Nevertheless, a great deal of red paint is spilled and that is what made Lewis his name. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi
