372 Silent Night, Bloody Night ( 1974 )
This film is notable for the number of former Warhol acolytes in the cast. It starts promisingly enough with the first killings a very effective shock but then loses its way with a plot that becomes progressively more ludicrous.
Lawyer John Carter ( Patrick O'Neal ) comes to a small town in Massachusetts to sell a house on behalf of Jeffrey Butler ( James Patterson ) to a quartet of town luminaries. While waiting to meet up with Butler he decides to spend a night at the house with his mistress. Big mistake.
Mary Woronov ( as Diane Adams )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Mary has the lead female role here but it's a poorly written part.
Astrid Heeren ( as Ingrid )
Sex : Ingrid has sex with Carter
Death : Axed to death in bed
Astrid was a German actress who made just four films in a ten year career. She is now 78.
Donelda Dunne ( as Marianne )
Sex : Marianne is raped by her father ( offscreen )
Death : Murdered by the inmates of an asylum
This was Donelda's only film.
