With the alluring Vanessa Howard dressed as a school girl and directed by cinematography great Freddie Francis this looks like a must see. Unfortunately it's a big disappointment.
The film starts off strong with a great cast of adults talking, playing and acting like little children in a secluded English mansion which makes the Biltmore look like a shack.
The sexy Girly and her pretend brother Sonny spend all day playing childish games.
As their playmates they pick up vagrants willing to play along with their fantasy world just to get 3 hots and a cot but when the inevitably try and leave the family "sends them to the angels." Unfortunately there is NO sex or violence in this film at all. Only one of the killings is briefly shown and there's not interesting method of murder.
When a character is decapitated and the head stuffed in a boiling dinner pot it's never actually shown. Neither the killing or the head.
There is also absolutely no explanation as to the origin of this madness. Who these characters are, where they come from, or why they do what they do. Or who pays for and maintains this opulent house. The "kids" have no chores and the one maid isn't enough. It would require a staff of dozens to maintain this place.
So all and all, NOTHING really happens! Once you've seen the first ten minutes and been entertained by this psycho family the rest of the film is just an endless repeat of the opening scene. If you're hoping for sex and violence or even just romance, lust, passion, or any emotion for that matter this movie is completely devoid of it.
It's an interesting premise that just doesn't realize itself.
