Wet Wilderness (1976)

"Wet Wilderness" is an expectedly schlocky XXX-'roughie' that I got quite a kick out of, regardless. Of course, there's nothing remarkable (or existent, really) about the plot of this one, though there are a few qualities that made it stand out a bit.

A family (mother, son, daughter, daughter's lesbian lover...) are on a camping trip when a guy in a homemade Spiderman mask and armed with a machete goes on a rape frenzy with the women, as well as forcing them into incestuous acts with each other.

Right off the bat, the movie blatantly lifts the score from Hitchcock's "Psycho" and continues to use it throughout. And that's not the only example of audio-based genius that "Wet Wilderness" offers up; the dubbing is fucking hilarious! Namely, that of the rapist/killer whose sexual commands and comments are pure gold - particularly when the a random black guy is introduced and he keeps screaming at them to "suck that black cock". Aside from how ridiculous and funny the voice-over shit is and how they used obviously unlicensed music from a very well known classic, the editing is beyond terrible. It looks like entire scenes are missing - including what ever becomes of the son and any kind of ending. One girl sneakily grabs the killer's machete when her mom is going down on him (for the second or third time), then there's just a grainy smash-cut to a banner reading, "THE END". What?? Fans of violent porn from this era need to check this one out. Obviously, it's bad but its nasty and hilariously mean spirited enough to warrant a viewing.
