Bruce M @BruceMc May 30 An odd little movie, tonally all over the place. You've seen it all before in much better movies. Gets an extra point for Karen Black and Paul Bartel, though. At least one former Playmate appears. See more Steve D 02/27/2023 It has a really odd tone that sinks this mess of a film. See more 01/31/2019 Soooo bad that it’s good! You get tricked with who the killer is! See more 04/05/2014 This was a wild hair purchase in a bulk lot of Warner MOD discs, and I have to say, I had no idea what I was getting into. It's not bad, but it's more of a thriller than the slasher I mightve expected, but I have to say I really loved the setting of the phone sex call center, which feels like such a dated reference nowadays. Rental? See more 10/25/2013 Am I actually the first to write a review of this movie on Flixster? (hah!) Bud Cort of Harold and Maude is in this and it is Divine's last film. Karen Black is in this too, I have recently watched a lot of her movies. If you read the synopsis it is about how you would imagine. It feels like a cop drama/investigation show. It basically is. We see the crimes. We see the cops investigating the crimes and we get an inside view of the people affected by the crimes. I watched this on free ondemand. Certainly hadn't heard of the movie before, but after looking at the cast I figured I'd give it a shot. It was okay. See more 10/27/2012 A man dresses up as a clown and calls himself Bobo as he kills girls from a phone fantasy line. No need to clown around with this one, its not worth watching.
