Childish and slightly unhinged Rosalie imprisons hapless jewelry salesman Virgil in her dusty farm.Poor guy is strapped to an iron bed after Rosalie has broken his leg with the back end of an axe.Suddenly a demented biker appears and they both find themselves dominated and tormented by him...I am fairly sure that after watching "The Strange Vengeance of Rosalie" Stephen King took the main idea to write his bestselling novel "Misery".Bonnie Bedelia is excellent as the uneducated,naive and aggressive captor.The final twist is rather silly,but I liked dry and utterly remote desert setting.The film was cut by the studio to achieve the desired PG rating.Thankfully I managed to see all the nude scenes censored from American release.8 out of 10.Very rare 70's film from director Jack Starrett of "Race with the Devil" fame.
