Description: “THREE ON A MEAT HOOK is a skid row exploitation remake of Hitchcok’s PSYCHO. Just compare the opening sequences of both films and you’ll realise that THREE ON A MEAT HOOK is a much sleazier outing. When Billy comes across three girls whose car has broken down, he can’t help but offer them shelter for the night at his say cheese!nearby farm. Daddy’s not too keen when the gang arrives back at the farmhouse, however, because Billy has problems around girls and Daddy’s tired of disposing of all the bodies, Billy can never remember his crimes and continues to make acquaintances with young ladies in order to convince himself (and his dead Ma) that he’s normal.

Made in the early seventies when violent horror was very much in demand to satisfy rabid drive-in audiences; THREE ON A MEAT HOOK is obviously a contemporary of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE and DERANGED. It shamelessly throws up a mixture of gratuitous nudity, nasty murders and even finds time for some groovy music. The film revels in its hick psycho-boy meets hippie bar-chick romantic sub-plot before climaxing with a gore soaked twist ending.” (Hysteria.co.uk)

Review: Four friends spend their weekend on the lake. On the way home, their car breaks down . One of the local lads passing by and ready to help them. The machine can not fix it , and then Billy (the name of the boy ) dares to invite girls to spend the night at home. Billy – a shy country boy who lives with his father on the farm. Dad has some very strict views on life and he does not like the fact that the young son picked up some sort of women on the road. As Billy finds a nerve to kick the girls out ( once against the folder ), the father of his own decided to do this .

The next morning, Billy is shocked by the father of the offense . Girls brutally murdered. In the hearts of Billy sends to hell and goes to the city, where he meets a pretty waitress. They tied relationships, and Billy thinks to introduce her to my dad. What will turn this knowledge and how to react to a harsh father ?

The story is inspired by the biography of Ed Gein . The film is a little bit ahead of ” Texas Chainsaw Massacre “. The idea there is the same , but here we have a thriller more melancholic . Attributes slasher are present , but they are few : maniac heavy breathing, the person at the time of the murder the camera does not show visible only weapon in the confident hands of a murderer. And here let killer known immediately after the massacre , the film of not worse. It is a different story. On the difficult relationship between father and son.

It looks a bit tiring and depressing . If you look at night , as in my case , the atmosphere noticeably presses , and therefore , the film was a success.
