Roger Corman explains in his autobiography that he handed this "spec" project to the up-and-coming Bogdanovich primarily because he could basically pay the kid peanuts. Bogdanovich understood Corman's economic sensibilities well, and cut as many corners as he could. He uses Cormans regular bit-players as well as plenty of Jack Nicholson footage from 1963's "The Terror" - another Corman B-movie. Corman's specifications for the film were simple: make a cheap film referring to the recent Charles Whitman shootings at the University of Texas, and make it fast. The script draws heavily from the real-life Whitman story; the all-American boy gone bad kills his wife and mother, and then proceeds on a killing spree, shooting anyone in his sights from a snipers nest. This story is intertwined with that of Byron Orlocks ageing horror legend nearing retirement; here Boris Karloff plays himself, for all intents and purposes. Bogdanovich plays a major role in the film himself, and there is obvious affection between the young director and Karloff in the scenes they share. (IMDB  cpetro1)

Director: Fred Olen Ray (as Peter Daniels) 

Entrepreneur Madison Dane is running a very successful VIP call-girl service behind a massage-parlor front. Things are going well until one of her girls overhears her client, a high-ranking senator with connections to some ruthless organizations, discussing the people he's had killed in order to claw his way to the top. To keep his secret, the senator and his associates will stop at nothing to eliminate or destroy anyone who could expose them, leaving Madison with no choice but to use every means at her disposal to bring the politician to justice and keep her girls safe.
