A quiet Los Angeles suburb is being terrorized by a crossbow-wielding killer who haunts the rooftops. The optimistic Lauren (Melanie Lynskey, HEAVENLY CREATURES) invites her whole department to her house for a weekend party, but only two intrepid guests show up. Grace (Mary Lynn Rajskub, 24) is the shy, awkward girl who nobody really likes, while the outspoken Gina (Sheeri Rappaport, LITTLE WITCHES) is unhappy at being stuck with the others for the weekend. While early suspicion grows into the certainly that there is a stalker lurking about, the girls' terror mounts as the murderer moves in for the kill, and their surroundings close in around them. Shot mostly in the daylight, this low-budget thriller makes good use of sound and light to increase the sensation of claustrophobia--which was the original title of the film--and the talented actesses play off each other well, making this a truly suspenseful, terrifying ride. Also featured in a cameo role is Judith O'Dea from NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

European cult cinema shlockmeister Jess Franco subjects the much-retold tale of Frankenstein to a fantastic update in this gleefully perverse horror film. One of three films the director shot in Portugal between 1971-72, THE RITES OF FRANKENSTEIN (AKA THE EROTIC NIGHTS OF FRANKENSTEIN) features British character actor Dennis Price, who appears here as the titular character in one of his final roles, before his death in 1973. The quietly brilliant doctor has discovered a way to resurrect the dead, but he is cut down in his laboratory and his monster stolen by the ghastly bird-woman, Melissa (Anne Libert). Melissa is under the spell of Frankenstein`s nemesis, Dr. Cagliostro (Howard Vernon, THE AWFUL DR. ORLOFF), who wants to use the monster to create a master race. The nefarious Cagliostro, however, didn`t count on having to battle Frankenstein`s daughter (Beatriz Savsn), who sets out to extract revenge for her father`s death. Quintessential Franco and shot on a miniscule budget, the intense performances from all the actors make this a compelling, lively, and occasionally genuinely creepy film.
