\n\u2018Love comes in all sizes. But the bonds of love extract a terrible price to be paid in flesh. A vow weighs heavily on the heart. Sylvia makes a promise but can she keep it ?\u2019 (George Kuchar)<\/em><\/p>\n

\nDonna Kerness and Bob Cowan, whose torrid off-screen romance caused a sensation in the steam room of the St. George Hotel, are teamed for the first time in this poignant film of shriveled beauty and bloodless vengeance. Mr. Cowan is a striking performer resembling a vulture with shoestrings on its head. He and the buxom Miss Kerness battle front and center in the biggest clash of the hams since Godzilla and King Kong, and it\u2019s one of the mysteries of gravity that Kerness doesn\u2019t flop on her face, she being so top-heavy.
\n\u2018A tender and realistic story of a scientist who falls in love with a mummy he has restored to life … 2,000 years as a mummy couldn\u2019t quench her thirst for love!\u2019 (George Kuchar)

\nThree years to complete … It dares to lay bare the naked carcass of a generation gone mad with moral decay. Starring Tony Reynolds and Candy Newman in the film that got them married!
\n\u2018An early film, depicting today\u2019s youth … raw and brutal.\u2019 (George Kuchar)<\/em><\/p>\n

\nRarely has the cinema equaled such spectacle! Seldom have movies probed so deeply in the rotten core of hypocrisy and weakness! Only the talents of Larry Leibowitz and Zelda Kaiser, his cousin from Hawaii, could make this tale of hatred and fanaticism come alive from the screen and hit you in the face with truth.
\n\u2018What happened that afternoon that left a town in shambles, its people in search of God?\u2019 (George Kuchar)<\/em><\/p>\n
