By 1986, many fear-fans were probably under the impression that the slasher genre had run out of surprises. However, 'Mountaintop Motel Massacre' indicates that nothing could be further from the truth. Unlike so many of its contemporaries, this positively sleazy, and sanguine-stained, sickie features an older antagonist in the seriously psychotic Evelyn (Anna Chappell) - an elderly and absolutely insane off-road hotel owner that might well give Norman Bates some sleepless nights. When Evelyn is not taking a sickle to the faces of those stupid enough to rent a room at her one-star establishment, she is planting poisonous snakes under their beds or hiding in an underground bunker that gives her plenty of time to plan her next bout of shockingly brutal slaughter. - Director:
- Jim McCullough Sr.
