Pieces(1982)
While playing with a puzzle, a teenager is repressed by his mother, and he kills her and severs her body with an ax. Forty years later, in an university campus in Boston, a serial killer kills young women and severs their bodies in parts, stealing body pieces from each student. Lt. Bracken (Christopher George) makes a deal with the dean of the campus, and infiltrates the agent Mary Riggs (Lynda Day George) as if she were a tennis teacher and together with the student Kendall (Ian Sera), they try to find the identity of the killer.
Pieces is not a very good movie by any means. Is it watchable? Well possibly once or twice but its far from a masterpieces. The actings is very weak, the film is dubbed over so it seems that the acting is even cheesier than it is in the native language. Everything seems over acted and people don’t really seem to worried about the grizzly chainsaw murders that have been happing.
As for the gore, did this shock and disgust people in the 80’s? The gore is really weak in this film, nothing really too special about it. There is not a whole bunch of it either.
You think possibly there could be a whole bunch of T&A(tits and asses) to save the movie well, there is some mild T&A not a ton, but it is extremely hard to see due to the film looking like complete shit.
Wait after the all of this the dvd release must be decent, right? No, this film is not easy on the eyes; the picture is really blurry and has a lot of scratches on the film. Mainly because it was just a copy of the VHS, yet when it says on the back of the DVD case that it was re-mastered, ha.
