Mountaintop Motel Massacre

Dir: Jim McCullough
Star: Anna Chappell, James Bradford, Bill Thurman, Major Brock

[3] Fractionally above average slasher that rehashes Psycho, with the mother being the murderer [2007 note: that might seem like a bit of a spoiler...except for the cover (right), which makes even less attempt to hide the fact!]. A couple of messyish murders and a sub-plot involving singing bimbos are the nice features, which just about compensate for the sheer predictability of it all. The best thing about it is the Reform School Girls trailer at the start.

5/10
