Movie Review: Pieces (Two-Disc Grindhouse Edition)

As much as I enjoy watching genre flicks, there are few that I can say that I've watched more than ten times. Juan Piquer Simon's amazingly stupid but infinitely enjoyable splatter epic known simply as Pieces is one of those select few that I can revisit a ridiculous amount of times. Grindhouse Releasing has put out some of the coolest cult classics over the past decade (Cannibal Holocaust, I Drink Your Blood and Cannibal Ferox) so seeing that the company has gone all out with a two disc special edition with all the fixins is no surprise.

Pieces begins in 1942 (or is it 1982), where we see a young man putting together a puzzle of a naked woman only to be interrupted by his angry mother. The little fellow does what any disturbed child would do - plant an axe between his mother's cranium and continuing on with his puzzle. Fast-forward to the present day where a killer is on the loose - complete with a trench coat and chainsaw - mainly targeting the women at a college. His goal : To put together the perfect women, piece by piece.
