This was Tobe Hooper's second film. While not even close to as good as the film that made him famous I must say I enjoyed it.
It's definitely low budget and trippy. But it's a fun idea for a horror film. With an amazing performance by Neville Brand as "Judd". He played insane very convincingly. His character was a kind of amalgam of Drayton Sawyer and Leatherface.
It also has Robert Englund's first appearance in a horror film. As Buck, a pretty memorable hick with a fetish.
BTW this film makes up for the lack of gore in TCM. With a pretty damn cool kill with a scythe.
I give it a 3 and a half out of five. Not his best work, but not his worst either. It's definitely worth watching.
