Synopsis: Elderly proprietor of the Mountaintop Motel Evelyn has spent some time in the Looney Bin and when she sees her daughter performing some sort of black magic she accidentally nearly beheads her with a sickle in a fit of rage. Distraught she somehow gets away with her daughter's murder, claiming it to be a gardening accident, and reopens the motel. Guests come in droves because the cost for a room is only $7 and there is a harsh storm that has washed out the road. That $7 price tag may actually cost the guests their lives as Evelyn's first attempt at a MOUNTAINTOP MOTEL MASSACRE is with members of the animal kingdom but when the critters fail she goes back to her trusty sickle to finish the job.
Review: Unfortunately the best part about the movie is its name and the title card. Some okay makeup and a higher body count sort of make this tolerable but it's pretty bad with a very bizarre ending. When your sort of hero is a guy who's trying to con his way into a couple of young ladies' underwear you may have an issue with sympathy.
Carnage Count 2/5
Sleaze Score 2/5

Very ordinary slasher from the 80's. Might be fun to view with a group. . . but I watched it alone.

This motel is definitely not the sort of place you'd want to stay, but when you have to, from the outside it looks to be as good a place as any. A large tree blocks the folks from getting too far, and they have no choice but to check into this quaint little place. The motel has a rather charming aesthetic with some child’s drawings (Lorri) adorning every wall in every room and gosh, they’re just fascinating. She must have been a rather bright child and the hotel manager, Evelyn is obviously a proud mother. Sadly for her (good for us) Evelyn decides that she’s going to kill all her guests because why the heck not? I won’t spoil how she does it, because it’s quite the process that looks to have been in the planning stages for years. I dug this film quite a bit, plus the fact it comes with not just 1 reversible cover, but 2 is just so darn delightful.
