three on a meathook (1973)

aka 3 on a Meathook!
"Recon you could stay with me and Pa."
Farm boy, Billy (James Carroll Pickett) has a protective father (Charles Kissinger) who doesn't like him mixing with women, intimating that Billy has issues around girls. And sure enough when four women are stranded and offered a bed for the night, they end up dead. But Billy remembers nothing of the attacks. Then Billy meets Sherry (Sherry Steiner), and against his fathers wishes brings her back to stay...
Another Ed Gein based film; one that skipped under the radar of most. It tries to establish character which affects the pacing of an otherwise interesting thriller.
