This film essentially involves a socially awkward young man by the name of "Carl" (Ron Max) who works as a mechanic at a gas station. Because he was abused as a child, he harbors an extreme hatred for women which manifests itself at certain times that results in his raping and them killing them whenever he gets the chance. There is, however, one woman he doesn't hate by the name of "Nancy Ulman" (Tanya Roberts) who he wants to possess more than anybody. Unfortunately for her, not only does she hardly know Carl, but she also isn't aware that she is soon to become one of his victims. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that, from what I understand, this was a remake of an X-rated movie by the title of "Forced Entry" a few years earlier only toned down for general theaters. Since I haven't seen the other movie in question, I cannot compare the two, but as far as this particular film is concerned, I didn't really find it that enjoyable as the pace was agonizingly slow and the ending needed considerable improvement as well. In any case, although I thought Tanya Roberts performed quite adequately, I thought her talents were more or less wasted and, because of the other faults just mentioned, I have rated this picture accordingly. Below average.
