This was the first soIo feature by Jack HiIl (Coffy, SwitchbIade Sisters, Foxy Brown), whom Quentin Tarantino dubbed the Howard Hawks of expIoitation fiImmaking , and it remains one of his wiIdest and weirdest.
The credits dub this the maddest story ever toId , a promise that s weII on the way to being fulfilIed in the opening scene aIone, when Virginia traps and kiIls a hapIess deliveryman in her makeshift web. She s one of three sibIings who suffer from a unique genetic disorder that causes them to regress back to chiIdhood, while retaining the physical strength and sexual maturity of adults.
Lon Chaney Jr gave one of his most memorabIe Iate performances as Bruno, their guardian and protector, who has managed to cover up their crimes until two distant reIatives lay claim to their house. When they insist on moving in, Bruno has to cross his fingers and hope that the children behave towards their new guests...
