Synopsis:

This ultra-bizarre, ultra-low-budget cult flick for adults (written by underground maverick George Kuchar) is most definitely not for all tastes. While it starts out as an atmospheric gothic horror tale, it quickly turns into a raunchy, graphic, blackly comedic sex-fest, as polymorphically perverse Gertie (Eaton) gets off by watching her houseguests explore a room full of naughty toys. Sexual encounters then continue in full force, as various partners of both genders hook up. If none of this sounds appealing (chances are it won't to most viewers), you'll find that Eaton, with her hopelessly skewed eyebrows, is by far the best aspect of the film - her performance is so sincerely melodramatic that one almost begins to root for her, despite her clear mental imbalance. There's an entire website devoted to the (supposedly) imminent 'special edition' DVD release of this film, which until now has only been available as a bootleg;

Take a cliched Horror-story beginning, a remote Gothic mansion, an insane hostess, a group of strangers (four men, three women and a gorilla) and you pretty much begin to see that this is not meant to be a serious film, but rather a parody of several other (older and better) ones. Social and sexual confusion & misunderstanding guarantees that this odd cast of characters will come together and entertain & amuse for 120 minutes.
