I first saw this when I was about 10, the bloke in video city rental shop didnt give a shit if you were underage as long as you paid up and this sordid, bloody affair warped my fragile little mind! Its fairly brainless but quality entertainment.

The guy who played Summer in this film was from my home town and I saw him in many local theatrical productions. He was quite the most renowned actor in town at the time. He never really lived up to his potential in Hollywood, mostly getting bit parts like a motorcycle cop in Annie Hall, a deranged killer in several episodes of St. Elsewhere and such. His role in this film is one of his largest.
