“Janie is a fetching blonde schoolgirl who thinks people are u0026quot;stupid and disgustingu0026quot;. We hear her psychotic conscience directing her to do terrible things…first, she sets up a sexual encounter between two acquaintances…as they are making love, she runs over them with a car. Getting a big thrill out of this, she masturbates wildly while looking at their bloody corpses. Next, Janie takes a dip in a filthy pool…the owner of the pool comes out of his house, and follows Janie to the beach. There, she sticks a knife in him and pushes him into the water from a pier. More masturbation. Next Janie thumbs a ride from a lesbian who recommends that Janie come to her home and freshen up with a nice bubble bath. Janie agrees, and the lesbian ends up with her throat slit. As Janieu0026#39;s conscience rambles on and on, we come to understand that the only one who can keep her sexually satisfied is her father(Eeew!). She gives Daddy a call and arranges to meet him. She takes a quick breather to watch her drunk stepfather beat her mother to death. More masturbation. She then proceeds to Daddyu0026#39;s house. Once there, she is greeted by a woman who presumably is Daddyu0026#39;s mistress. She and Janie exchange hostile words and Janie strangles the bitch with her belt, dragging the corpse into a bathtub. Daddy returns home, and he and Janie make passionate love while Janie tells him about her eventful day. He laughs this off, until he goes into the bathroom and sees his mistress dead. Janie is committed to a padded cell in a nuthouse. The End.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a late-entry roughie, and it has the usual substandard lighting and sound quality expected in this subgenre. A pretty sick and strange affair this is, with terrible, disorienting acid rock throughout. Worth a look for the onscreen presence of Michael and Roberta Findlay, the royal couple of vintage sleaze.”
