Poor
Pretty Eddie/Heartbreak Motel
This amazing little southern fried gem is
one of the classic exploitation films of
the 1970’s! A black female singer's
car breaks down in the middle of a small
southern town where she meets a pseudo Elvis
impersonator who rapes her and holds her
hostage, all while the towns folk don’t
seem to notice or care. Mixing amazing racial
stereotypes that would never make it in
a movie these days and offensive behavior
from all ends of the spectrum, this movie
takes an all out misanthropic view of the
world it depicts making it a true exploitation
film that makes you want to take a long
shower after viewing. Plus it has a cast
to just die for! Shelly Winters, Slim Pickens,
Ted Cassidy, Dub Taylor and Leslie Uggams!
Also included on this disc is the alternate
version of the film Heartbreak Motel,
complete with a very alternate ending and
a creepy love scene between Eddie and Shelly
Winters!
