Featured review
Delivers for what it is
This movie didn't pull any punches. You have two psychotic killers, who are surrounded by police in a raid, and it is all out mayhem. A textbook example of how to foul everything up. They escape, and team up with one of their buddies, a clown. And the sheriff shows he can be as psychotic as they are in trying to capture them. So one has three on the run, and they have no problem in taking delight in killing others. This is a movie one either will appreciate for the campy slasher movie that it is, or one is offended by the characters. If the latter, why are they still watching? Excessive violence, but by both sides. The characters are truly original.
