Synopsis:
Teenager Bill Whitney (Billy Warlock) has always felt like the odd one out in his wealthy, upper-class Beverly Hills family. For some reason, he just doesn't seem to fit in. But his sense of alienation takes a sinister turn when he hears an audio recording of his sister's coming-out party, which seems to implicate his family and others in a bizarre, ritualistic orgy. And then there are the strange things he's been seeing - glimpses of people with their bodies contorted impossibly out of shape... Is Bill going mad or is there something seriously amiss in his neighbourhood?

Gory and hilarious - Society review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert

The cover gave me the idea this was going to be scary, but it was mainly hilarious.

Somewhere between They Live and Bad Taste... but with more boobs
