fun with bad horror
19 January 2019
Billy Lynch loses his parents in a suspicious car accident. His Aunt Cheryl (Susan Tyrrell) raises him for the next 14 years. He's trying to get a college scholarship but Cheryl is not happy that he's leaving her. She wants him all to herself. Julia (Julia Duffy) is his high school girlfriend. He witnesses Cheryl killing the TV repairman who she claims to be raping her. Police detective Joe Carlson (Bo Svenson) doesn't believe her and suspects Billy as his homosexual lover who killed in a jealous rage.

This is kinda bad but it's funny bad. Bo is playing it so broadly that I can't help but laugh at his performance. He is so bad that it's good. All the bad old fashion takes are so very campy. This is not a good movie but it is good at its badness. Psycho Cheryl has a bit too much Misery. It's fun at first but she's one of the leads and it gets a bit tiring. She seems to enjoy it as well as everybody else. It's fun to have fun with a bad horror.
