      Steve Dread Central Even after over thirty years The Centerfold Girls holds its own. It's a classic whose intentions are still very clear and -- for what it is -- very effective.

      Audience Member This wasn't set up in the manner that I was expecting, in that it just follows our killer as he hunts a series of centerfold girls, with no real through-line except the crazy bastard stalking these women, but honestly that was surprisingly fresh in the approach and I really dug the film, probably much more than I would have had it had the 'normal' approach to the story. Well worth a look if you can track it down. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Episodic slasher film is oftentimes unintentionally funny. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member After watching The Centerfold Girls I went on the IMDB to do some reading on it & I was surprised to find how many people actually liked this movie even calling it a gem. All I have to say is that many people have little demand out of their Drive-In/Grindhouse fare. Cut into three parts a killer makes phone calls to some women that pose in girly magazines, murders them w/ a razor & takes their shoes. It's all done on the cheap w/ this flix even being shot on 16mm. The best thing about it is the ample display of sugar boobies even though the women weren't exceptional attractive. Trust me there a better exploitation movies of this ink out there Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Despite being American, The Centerfold Girls feels like an Italian Giallo but with a major structural difference. Instead of being a single storythread, The Centerfold Girls plays like an omnibus flim with a single serial killer uniting all of the individual narrative strands. This in itself makes it an original entry in the 70s psychological thriller genre, but even more than this it is a fun and wicked little piece of exploitation cinema. Filed with almost absurd amounts of nudity and featuring some genuinely brutal surprises, The Centerfold Girls is an original in the genre that will delight fans of horror and exploitation cinema from the 1970s. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Det måste varit den mesiga svenska titeln "Skönhet intill Döden" som gjorde att den här aldrig förbjöds, Sleeazigt och grisigt, Alla män är mördare/våldtäktsmän/as i största allmänhet, kvinnorna i filmen är endera döda eller nakna, om du uppskattar filmer som New York Ripper,Giallo a Venezia eller vilken jävla skadad film som helst så är det här något för dig, I Spit on your Grave är både långtråkig och tjatig i jämförelse.Mördaren påminner om Breaking Points Billing blandat med en frireligös Howling Pelle.
