A really bad movie

First off I only wanted to see this movie because of Tiny Tim's participation. Actually he is one of the better actors in the cast and that is saying something. There is so much wrong with this film that I can't begin to list everything. First, the female lead character is supposed to be a Wisconsin farm girl yet you can tell that English is not her first language. This calls for a huge suspension of disbelief right from the start. The movie uses the same gore effect-slicing the throat-over and over again. The appliance used is quite noticeable. The female lead spends 80% of her time in her boyfriend's shirt and a thong-even when people stop by to visit. There seems to be an abundance of peeping in windows-everybody including the sheriff does it. And even tho she fears for her life and is receiving threatening phone calls she never locks a door. Friends, sheriffs, murderers continually stroll in unannounced and it hardly phases her. She is a comely woman with legs that go all the way up and a nice rack. Her ample bosom is on display an inordinate amount of time even for an 80's era hack film like this. Every plot device is telegraphed and you've seen this a hundred times before and done much better. The identity of the killer isn't even hidden well-a stocking over the head-please give me a break. If you love Tiny you'll enjoy his performance but keep the fast forward button handy.I gave this film a extra point only because of the level of nudity, frequent and full frontal.
