Loved Strait Jacket. It even has an awesome, creepy children's rhyme!

"Lucy Harbin took an axe, gave her husband forty whacks, when she saw what she had done, she gave his girlfriend forty one."

Or is it just my phobia of small children that causes that to strike me as both awesome and creepy?

Hell yeah, Strait Jacket. Ax murder has rarely been so awesome.

I reviewed this movie on my blog a short while back. LOVED IT! William Castle's classic, no doubt.

Yes, perchingpath, clearly this is the American version of "Onibaba"

What I like about this still is the leathery skin on Crawford's upper chest. I said it.
