Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesAccording to the film's producer, director, writer and star Marc Lawrence, at its theatrical premiere in Detroit, Michigan on May 23, 1973 the distributor offered free bacon to the audience as part of a promotion for it, most of which was quietly and cautiously returned after the viewing of it was finished.
- PatzerThere is a camera shadow behind Lynn Webster when she kills Jess Winter in Zambrini's diner.
- Zitate
Zambrini: [absent-mindedly talking to a corpse that he has stolen from the morgue and that he is using to feed his sounder of 12 pigs] Yeah, you know, always on a full moon the pigs get hungry. Yeah. I gotta do it. They got used to eating human flesh. I gotta do it. I'm sorry. You know, the first time it happened was an accident. They got loose in the field. There was a drunk. He was asleep. Yeah, he was asleep.
- Alternative VersionenIn addition to this film's producer, director, writer and star Marc Lawrence's original director's cut of it, which was titled "The 13th Pig" and which was officially released on DVD and Blu-ray by Vinegar Syndrome on March 29, 2016, two other alternate versions of it also exist. The first alternate version of the film featured a three-minute all-new introduction that shows its co-star Toni Lawrence's character of Lynn Webster (portrayed by an uncredited and different (but similar-looking) actress) being possessed by a demon and then being the subject of an exorcism, ending with her running out of the room in terror. This version was released under various titles, including "Lynn Hart, The Strange Love Exorcist", "The Strange Exorcism of Lynn Hart", The Secret of Lynn Hart", "Love Exorcist", "Roadside Torture Chamber" and "Blood Pen", among others. The second alternate version of it featured another longer all-new introduction that shows Lynn's childhood experiences with her incestuous father, ending with her stabbing him to death with a knife over and over again in a fit of rage after he had raped her in her bedroom and then being committed to an insane asylum because she irrationally believes that her father is still alive. She soon escapes when a nurse undresses to have sex with a doctor, leaving behind her uniform and her car keys. There is also a new ending in this version which shows Lynn supposedly faking her own death by seemingly going into the pigpen willingly and allowing the sounder of 12 pigs in it to apparently overpower her and eat her alive (leaving behind only her Egyptian ankh necklace (which she had been wearing around her neck throughout the entire film) hanging on one of the wooden posts of the pigpen where it is found later), then being picked up on the side of the road by a middle-aged man in his car who asks her how a girl like her can trust a complete stranger like him, after which Lynn tells him that she is not afraid because he reminds her of her "Daddy". The car is then seen driving on the road from a bird's eye view while the song "Somewhere Down the Road" is playing, followed by the closing credits (such as they are) running. Lynn is portrayed in these additional scenes by several uncredited actresses who are wearing wigs and are filmed from obscure angles. This version was originally titled "Daddy's Girl" and was also the one that was released to home video for several years by various minor (at best) and bargain basement (at worst) video companies and again under various titles, including "Pigs", "Daddy's Deadly Darling", "The Killers" and "Horror Farm", among others.

Ausgewählte Rezension
Pigs (1972)
*** (out of 4)
Lynn Hart (Toni Lawrence) gets a new job working for the rather strange Zambrini (Marc Lawrence) and before long she's luring men to their deaths and feeding them to the employer's pigs. Pretty soon Sheriff Cole (Jesse Vint) begins to think that there's something in Lynn's past that might have a connection to the current events.
I had never heard of this film until Vinegar Syndrome released it to Blu-ray so that tells you how obscure this film was at one point. It was released under various titles including DADDY'S DEADLY DARLING and THE 13TH PIG, which is the title available on the print I watched. I'm giving this film three stars simply because it's really unlike any other movie out there and not only does it have an interesting and at times deranged atmosphere but it also deserves some credit for coming before so many other popular horror movies set in rural towns.
I guess if I had to compare this to a more popular movie then I'd say THE Texas CHAIN SAW MASSACRE. Both films take place in small locations and both films have a rather warped atmosphere that make them so memorable. I really liked the look and feel that director Marc Lawrence brought to the picture and I thought he perfectly captured that small town mood where everyone knows one another and everyone talks about one another. The two older ladies who are always suspecting something. The town Romeo who tries to sexually assault Lynn.
The film really doesn't contain any graphic gore or violence but it still has some unsettling images that once again should have us giving credit to the director. I thought his daughter, Toni, in the lead was also extremely good and believable in the part. I also liked the performance from Lawrence as the crazed diner owner. Father and daughter certainly did a nice job here and the end result is a pretty entertaining slice of 70's horror.
