I watched the two "Stripped to Kill" films back-to-back, and here are a few thoughts on them in case anyone (?) is interested:
1. The original is a piece of almost unbelievably sleazy gutter trash. There is no other way to describe it. If this description attracts you, see it, otherwise, AVOID IT. To be fair, though, the revelation of the killer's identity IS a surprise, and Kay Lenz is pretty good under the circumstances.
2. The second film is a slightly more polished production (though it still seems rushed), and has a few less strip numbers (though still too many). Again, the finale is kind of unexpected, but other aspects (like dialogue and sets) are very bad.
Conclusion: Rent these two films only if you need a voyeuristic fix. "Stripped" is the key word here.
