#Pieces 1982 uncut pro
Secondly, seasoned cop and star tennis pro Mary Riggs (Lynda Day) will go undercover as one of the faculty. This BMOC knows all the angles – and the ladies. First, he will elicit the help of student Kendall James ( Pod People‘s Ian Sera) to snoop among the student body. Bracken (a nicely cheesy Christopher George) hopes to crack the case with a two fold approach. Using a chainsaw to carve up the bodies, the police are baffled by the murders. On a small college campus, young girls are being viciously vivisected by an unseen killer. After a particularly gruesome showdown, we flash forward forty years.

Others actual deliver the goods the studio staged ballyhoo promises. Some horror movies can live solely on their carefully crafted hype.
