**UPDATED 09/07/2023** Going through the aforementioned _20 Best Horror Movies Ever Made, According to Redditt_ (and let me again emphasize this is a list I pulled off of another movie site I subscribe to; the list should **NOT** be interpeted as my own personal preferences) this film stands at the #10 position (counting down from #20). Why, I have no idea and won't waste time watching it. The first 20 minutes that I _did_ watch were painfully awful, unless you just really like the quality (or should I say "lack of") and stupidity of 80's movies. I've heard all about that one particular scene in the film, and never even made it that far: the acting, the story, the dialogue was all just too awful to sit through. So, although I haven't watched this in its entirety, the fact that I could **only** sit through 20 minutes before turning it off should tell you all you need to know. I love a good movie. This wasn't good.

After missing this one during its heyday back in the 80's, I found it on Tubi and decided to watch it. I made it through the first 20 minutes but found it just too dull, plodding, poorly-acted, etc. I learned about the - what I guess was "THE" scene - years ago (although I never saw it myself): [spoiler] something about the guy using his own decapitated head to give head to a female victim or whatever. [/spoiler] While there's a part of me that just wanted to watch the movie for that one scene, at this point in my life and going by the standards of quality movies available today, I just couldn't sit through everything else. I know what happens (in that one scene, mind you; nothing else) and I just can't get into the 80's easy-cheesy horror anymore. Watching this movie simply for the sake of that one scene would be [spoiler]the equivalent of sitting through _The Human Centipede_ simply for the _"Feed her! Feed her!"_ scene (that you knew would eventually happen at some point because of dialogue/situations early in the film.) [/spoiler] I turned this off around the 20-minute mark and have no intention of ever finishing it. Life is too short to waste it on bad coffee or bad movies.
