Grew up seeing this more than once on our old black and white TV set back in the day. Had I viewed it in color I might have enjoyed it more. As it was I remember feeling cheated, thinking, "This is a horror movie?"
Thanks for posting. I don't remember picking up on the fact that Jerry killed both dancers, but I think that was omitted from the MST3K version. Now it makes more sense. And even though it is the freakiest movie I've ever seen, this one scene is pretty cool. It does not, however, make Ray Dennis Steckler any more appealing.
They did cut out that part, although they left in the radio blurb later on where the announcer says Marge's partner was fatally wounded "trying to apprehend" Jerry (even though here all he does is stand there).
Steckler deserves a bigger cult than he has. Maybe his films are not as entertaining as Ed Wood's products, but they should get more attention especially by Cult/Grade B Film fans!
And I thought David Lynch came up with all that stuff in his films on his own....imagine that, he learned it all from the "Incredible Creatures Feature!"...and who knew Nicolas Cage popped up in this flick as well ! ...(check out time - 4:43 thru 5:00 )...Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I cant hep but laugh at the words "Ray Dennis Steckler's masterpiece." The best thing that can be said about this film is that it gave MST3K really good material.

This dream sequence is probably the best part of the film. It's actually pretty trippy. Unfortunately, the rest of the film sucks.

It's considered to be one of the worse movies ever.

I know. But a lot of my favorite things are widely considered terrible. Favorite musician = Daniel Johnston. For me, sincerity trumps acclaim.

Ray Dennis Steckler, 1939-2009. A very important filmmaker, influential and ahead of his time. 'Kill ... Kill!'

That's not Cage (was he born yet?), that's Cash Flagg or the Incomparable Ray Dennis Steckler.
Pure Genius!
He should be listed as the A Number One No-Budget Filmmaker - or at least revered as the best of the old school no budget filmmakers.
