Plot:
One of the goriest, most offensive, funniest and WORST slasher films ever made. You won't believe it's happening while watching it. It's THAT bad.
This unintentionally-hilarious nugget of badly-dubbed exploitation serves the best opening scene I've ever witnessed for explaining why kids grow up to become heavy-breathing, fedora-and-trenchcoat-wearing, chainsaw-wielding psychos. Child abuse, you immediately ask? Nah, that's so American. This 8-year old Spaniard falls off his rocker when Mommy discovers his stash of porn mags hidden inside his toybox and burns them...right in front of him! (I are not making this up.) In a sweat-inducing situation like that, how would you react? Well, this young 'un serves cold justice by sticking an axe in her head because...that's what sexually-repressed 8 year-old Eurotrash do. And away we go, kiddies. Flashforward to 1983 and a typical college campus where someone's chain-sawing the curvy co-eds, taking certain pieces and leaving the rest for the cops to trip over. Yes, Pieces definitively proves no amount of artsy mise-en-scene can overshadow the adrenaline rush of a good chainsaw killing. It's got tons of nudity, very graphic violence and gore. And best of all, absolutely no socially redeeming value whatsoever. Be forewarned, this movie also has the most deranged use of the word bastard in film history as undercover cop (and tennis champ!) Linda Day-George pulls out ALL her acting skills and screams the word 4 times in frustration because she was too busy turning down loud music to hear the nut-bag carving a victim in the very next room! Oh, and I loved the scene where the killer follows a half-naked coed onto an elevator while hiding a two-foot, 60-pound chainsaw...behind his back. And the scene involving a skateboarding disco bunny. And the gratuitous disco aerobics workout. And the school's crazy Kung-Fu instructor who kicks the gun from Linda's hand, knocks her to the ground, and then admits he had no reason for attacking her except...he ate some bad Chop Suey. (Again, I am not making this up, really.) Boys and Girls, ask anyone, you cannot put a price tag on this kind of entertainment. As the film's tagline once screamed, `You Don't Have To Go To Texas For A Chainsaw Massacre! It's Exactly What You Think!' Director Juan Piquer Simon, I ask you, `Where is your Thalberg Award?!'
A slasher film from the early 1980s. It's so bad that it's good. A maniac kills women on a college campus with a chainsaw for their body parts so he can use them to "complete a puzzle."
This movie has it all. Terrible acting. Bad dubbing. The late Christopher George. Decent yet cheesy gore. Early 1980s charm. Hilarious dialogue. Gratuitous nudity. A handful of memorable scenes. And a random kung fun guy scene.
Grindhouse Releasing is working on a better DVD release for Pieces. I have the Diamond version, which is absolute shit but viewing Pieces in this shitty manner adds to the rawness & grittiness of the movie.
A stoopid slasher film. So stoopidly executed to make it ENJOYABLE!!! And where the hell did the kung fu guy come from? You gotta see this one!
A movie titled "Pieces", with a picture of a chainsaw on the cover above a tag line that reads "it's exactly what it sounds like"?! Sadly my torrent has been stuck at 97.7% for the last month, and I'm poor. :-(
