In this wild psychological thriller, Millie Perkins [The Diary of Anne Frank, TV's Elvis] stars as Molly, whose obsession with television personalities and myths about the sea masks a tragic history of childhood sexual abuse. Fond of regaling nephews Tadd and Tripoli with tales of a sea-captain grandfather lost at sea ("but he still may return"), Molly drinks to ward off her own dark fantasies of castrating god-like NFL stars and Muscle Beach athletes -- or are these only fantasies?
Her psychosis takes a quantum leap when she encounters Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus" at a party, which TV actor Billy Batt [Combat's Rick Jason] describes to her as the legend of a witch who rose from the depths when the jealous wife of Zeus castrated the god and heaved his stones into the sea. Molly girds herself for the ultimate showdown with her demons by going to Jack Dracula's Tattoo Shop and turning herself into a Mermaid before embarking on a date with new acquaintance McPeak [Stafford Morgan], whose popular TV commercials for razor blades have encouraged her cruelest fantasies.

Blood Bath When the cast and crew of a horror film sit down at dinner, they begin to tell stories of their real-life experiences with the occult. What follows is a parade of dark but amusing tales including a marriage to the devil’s daughter, one very unlucky hit-man, a hen-pecked husband with delusions of war heroism, a miser haunted by the ghost of a man he ruined, and a less-than-epic martial arts master looking for the "Tenth Secret of Shao-Lin".
This low-budget epic offers gruesome deaths, amputations, doors flying off hinges, demons, martial arts, and roasted rats—what’s not to love?
