I've been wondering where this came from. Now I know.

A very nice (possibly pre) review.

Always great to see Kurt Plissken in a movie.
I like this line from the preReview: "It’s called PLANET OF TERROR, and it’s about a planet (which looks a lot like Earth) that’s made of pure terror."

That review is hilarious, joester.

And from John Waters' "Why I Like Violence" in his 1981 autobiography, Shock Value (thanks to Kate Wilson for pointing this out):

"When I entered junior high, I received the thrill of my life. Actual girl juvenile delinquents were in my class, and, to my astonishment, they got into catfights. I immediately lost interest in the school's curriculum and concentrated completely on every move of these cheap girls. I had never seen anything like it. Dressed in black, straight skirts, white "angel blouses," and pointy-toed "fruit boots," they hung in packs, combing their Debra Paget bangs and discoloring their lips with pimple medicine."
[...]
"On the day of the school election, Debbie Sue was in a sour mood. She waited outside the student government association office, and when the goody-goody girl candidate emerged victorious, Debbie Sue sprang into action. Screaming like a banshee, she lunged at the new class president, slapped her across the face, stabbed her with her rattail comb, and hit her over the head with her pocketbook. Soon after, Debbie Sue was expelled...I think Debbie Sue was my real first heroine."
