Made circa 1986 on Super-8 by Ben McGill. I resisted the temptation to fix this up digitally, leaving it rough as it was through the projector, except for the titles. Made when we were all about 15 when film-making meant you edited the original footage and had one chance to get it right. I was Into blood and gore movies but saw it as a kind of overlooked high art.
@eraserhead8646 wow thanks! I was a big fan of David Lynch back then especially Eraserhead, I saw Eraserhead, Polanksi's Repulsion and Dali and Bunuel's surrealist films all around the same time. Totally blew my teenage mind.

Great film! Perverse, Bizarre, Repulsive, Gritty, Nauseating, Extremely creative! I really loved it! The grit of the 8mm ads to the fucked-upness of the film! A great practice in the diabolical mind! :)
