DERANGED/MOTEL HELL


DERANGED is a peripheral re-telling of the Ed Gein legend. Roberts Blossom turns in a memorable performance as Ezra (Ed, really).

MOTEL HELL is the crown jewel of the set here. Rory Calhoun and the wonder Nancy Parsons are terrific as Farmer Vincent and his unpleasant sister. You may remember Ms. Parsons as “Coach Balbricker” from the PORKY’S films.

Anyway, this is more of a bloody comedy than anything else. The plot is really summed up well by the tagline on the poster: It takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent’s Fritters.

Best line in MOTEL HELL is given to Vincent: “Another spotcheck there, Bob?”

Both movies well worth having – glad they came together as a set.
