15 Bloody Disgusting Horror Films You Must See Before You Die

4. Pieces (1982)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1cnjEAZOjk On a New England campus, nobody notices a co-ed being hacked up with a chainsaw on the front lawn in broad daylight, so the Dean brings in Keystone Kops Christopher George and Frank Brana, who spend the rest of the movie wondering what use a heavy breathing maniac could have for the limbs he steals from his victims. A movie that thinks €˜subtlety€™ and €˜nuance€™ are towns in the Midwest, Pieces throws in everything for the sake of an entertaining show and lets nothing €“ not the bad dubbing, the horrific acting or the outrageous plot €“ stand in its way. In a film with no shortage of unintentional laughs, special mention must be made of the sequence where a co-ed gets into a lift with a black-garbed, heavy breathing psychopath, who she doesn€™t realize is carrying a chainsaw until he revs it up.
