ANTHOLOGY FEATURE
SECOND HALF WRITTEN, DIRECTED, EDITED BY JAY WOELFEL
2 1/2 BONES. Things finds an abusive husband and his mistress plotting to kill his mousey wife. Only the murder victim comes back to haunt the deadly duo--at least parts of her do. Technically well made. Nicely grotesque make up effects.

*** ½ stars
Highlight is the story of a marriage gone bad. The hubby and secret lover successfully carry out a plot to kill the wife. Following the murder, the now deceased wife’s remains (a slimy, icky looking creature) extract a bloody revenge.

A HORRIFIC AND SEXY ROMP IN THE DARK.

Woelfel's E.C. Comic's fashion story takes the jilted lover theme a step farther. All and all, this really isn't a bad effort…surprisingly watchable and competently acted and photographed. Give it a chance. It's a good boredom killer! Director Jay Woelfel definitely earns brownie points with me.

Have you ever seen a living creature made from a woman’s hands, eyes and teeth which were dissolved in acid? Here’s your chance! The film is inspired and kept good looking by effects that are worth seeing and the quality is consistently high. The two stories are well held together by a nice framing device.
(HAIKO’S FILM ENCYCLOPEDIA)
A battered, betrayed and murdered wife (or rather what is left of her!) slithers out of the grave to exact her brutal retribution. If you like a good fry-up for breakfast you’re in for a treat!
