Description: THE LOVE BUTCHER (BLU-RAY 1975 -2021) BRAND NEW - HORROR - THRILLER - SLASHER - DRAMA PRODUCT INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW ~ Product Description A string of murders in a posh neighborhood has the police department stumped and the local press is breathing down their necks. Strangely, nobody notices that several victims share the same gardener, a bent, elderly man with a crippled arm named Caleb (Erik Stern, Assassination). Even though all of the murder weapons are lawn care tools, Caleb remains above suspicion. Of course, it isn't Caleb doing the killing, but rather his second personality, a confident, handsome younger brother named Lester (also played by Erik Stern) who Caleb turns into when he dons a toupee. That's when he seduces and then slashes his employers, most of whom heap insults and derision upon Caleb as he works. Lester dons a variety of disguises to "gain entry," employing false accents and charming patter to bed down his victims. The two personalities battle when alone, though, and one of them will eventually have to overcome the other. Richard Kennedy (Candy Tangerine Men), Robin Sherwood (Tourist Trap) co-star. Directed by Mikel Angel and Don Jones (The Forest). The Love Butcher From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Love Butcher is a 1975 American slasher film directed by Mikel Angel and Don Jones, and starring James Lemp, Kay Neer, Richard Kennedy, and Robin Sherwood. Its plot follows a series of violent murders being committed in an affluent neighborhood by a demented middle-aged gardener. Plot Caleb is a lonely, physically crippled middle-aged gardener who works and resides in an affluent neighborhood in Los Angeles. Caleb is tormented by a delusion that his deceased brother, Lester, who was always more successful and attractive, lives in his house. Caleb is taunted by his delusional visions of Lester, who continually insults him and derides his appearance. Caleb begins dissociating and embodying Lester, removing his glasses and gardening outfit, wearing a wig, and dressing and acting as his suave deceased brother. Under this guise, Caleb begins committing a series of brutal murders in the neighborhood which puzzle the police and a local reporter, Russell. Sheila, a young woman in the neighborhood, informs Caleb she will be alone for two weeks as her older husband, Carl, will be gone on a business trip. The two end up in an argument, and Sheila fires Caleb. Later that night, Caleb impersonates a Mexican record salesman and manages to infiltrate Sheila's house, appealing to her love of rock music. He later drowns Sheila in her swimming pool by shoving a running hose down her throat. Caleb is driven increasingly insane. Meanwhile, Russell's girlfriend, Flo, is attacked by Caleb (posed as Lester) in her home. Russell, having been investigating the murders, comes to the realization that Caleb is the killer, and rushes to Flo's house, only to be butchered by Caleb. Caleb torments Flo until she eventually begs him to kill her, leading him to bludgeon her to death with a bed rake. Caleb flees the house and evades police, but is eventually caught the next day, while he recalls a childhood memory of his brother Lester's funeral, during which their mother told Caleb she wished he had died instead. StorylineA series of bizarre murders have completely baffled the police to a point where fear grips the entire neighbourhood. Kaleb, a crippled gardener with thick lensed glasses performs his daily routine chores for some of the local residents returning to his dingy, filthy hovel and greets his brother Les. But Les is not quite what he appears, and neither for that matter is Kaleb. What follows is a frenzy of shock after shock as a quiet neighbourhood is turned into a slaughterhouse. LOVE BUTCHER is a profoundly disturbing film depicting senseless and psychotic violence.

But producers told her that though she would be nude during filming, they wouldn't show her body onscreen. Being young and naive, she trusted them. Day of shooting, she was terrified when she first stripped off her bikini in front of actor James Lemp and the male crew. It was the first time she'd been nude in front of that many men. She spent all day stark naked in a pool being grabbed by Lemp during her assault scene. She said Lemp was great to work with and tried his best to watch his hands, but during the very physical scene, he couldn't help getting a handful of her breasts at points as she struggled. The pool was bad enough, but at least her body was obscured by water except for the cameraman who shot underwater. But then Lemp had to carry her "unconscious" out of the pool and toward the house. She was totally exposed at that point and her bare butt was facing the director and production crew the entire time so she knew they had a clear view. She said the director had them film that part several times for some reason. Weeks later, when she saw the final film, she was furious because her breasts and butt were visible on screen throughout. She confronted the director who said he decided to show the nudity because it made the scene stronger. Sherwood panicked thinking it would damage her new acting career. She was also a model and just shot a campaign for Levi's. She was afraid they'd fire her. Thankfully, the film wasn't released because it was so bad they couldn't get any distribution. But, producers finally released it in 1982 when Death Wish 2, co-starring Sherwood, was a big hit. Ironically, Sherwood had an extensive nude assault scene in it too. But at that point she didn't care because she had decided to give up acting.
