 External Reviews
external linkThis cult classic soon become Troma's flagship title and it's easy to see why. Totally politically incorrect, filled with dopey sound effects, campy and loaded with juvenile humour this is exploitation Heaven for fans of irreverent, gory and just plain silly low-budgeters. 3/4
