A female night school student is brutally murdered by a black leather figure wearing a motorcycle helmet. Judd Austin (Leonard Mann) is the Boston police detective leading the investigation. She attended Professor Millett's anthropology class and Eleanor (Rachel Ward) is his assistant.
This is a B-movie. The most noticeable aspect seems to be a sense of the grotesque. First, there is that turtle eating the decapitated head. I couldn't figure out the long takes of the stew at first. It's like an amateur art film trying to spice up the gross body violence. As a horror, it's not scary other than a few women-in-danger scenes. The acting ranges from poor B-movie to passable professionalism. The filmmaking is generally weak. There is the motorcycle helmet big mystery although there are a couple of obvious suspects. I do question the ending. All in all, it's an interesting B-horror which never gets up enough steam.
