“Lust, betrayal, and dismemberment...”

Vicki Kent (Samantha Fox) has just been released from a mental hospital five years after supposedly stabbing two neighborhood boys to death. Her sister Mary (Diane Cummins) and brother Billy (Bill Szarka) think Vicki should still be locked up, and the two soon begin tormenting her in the hopes of triggering another psychotic episode. But when various members of Vicki’s extended family begin turning up dead, is she actually the one responsible for the carnage?

The first all-out horror film by legendary filmmaker Doris Wishman, A Night to Dismember famously had to be salvaged after a majority of its original camera negative was destroyed in a lab fire during post-production. The final film, constructed a combination of old and new material plus copious outtakes and stock footage, is singularly strange headscratcher and a masterpiece of accidental avant-garde.
