Kastle's only film in the director's chair is an eerie and quite brilliant based-on-fact account of an overweight nurse and a gigolo who scheme to swindle and murder wealthy older women. With a limited budget and expert use of music by Mahler, the film is bleak and unsentimental and doesn't flinch at all from showing the brutality of the horrific murders. A neglected cult classic that deserves to be better known.....

This started off being very stage-y to me but after a few more minutes I was hooked! It really picks up on the suspense later on!

Maybe the only possible situation where I am GLAD that Martin Scorsese would be fired from a movie.

A true tabloid movie. Martin Scorsese shot a few days on it, but left because Kastle (who wrote and produced) had his own ideas of how it should be directed and Mary saw no reason to stand in his way.A uniquely creepy thriller.

A haunting film about the disturbing things people will do to survive and thinking about using love as some drive in your life. Hard to watch and even harder to belive this really happened. The horrors of the frayed human mind. Amazing side notes being that Scorsese was fired from the picture and the eventual director- screenwriter would go on to direct only this film.
