'When Cheryl moves into her estranged aunt Martha's rundown King Edward Hotel, one of its offbeat residents, disturbed photographer George, takes special interest in her. Everyone there seems to be a pervert in one way or another, and when murders start occurring, Cheryl realizes that she is in over her head.'
Directed by Paul Bartel and produced by Gene Corman, brother of Roger Corman, the 1972 psychological thriller Private Parts successfully hits the creep-o-metre with it's collection of colorful characters. The movie routinely plays TCM, usually late at night on the weekends. It was after reading a synopsis on-line earlier this year that had me setting my PVR.
I was surprised at that brief, but memorable nude scene from actor Len Travis which opens the horror flick. There is something incredibly hot about Len's 1970's hunky look, especially the sexy tan lines which highlight his gorgeous ass. There's also a 'don't blink or you'll miss it' frontal when Len's gets up from the bed.
I couldn't really find out anything about Len when researching, Private Parts was just one of three film appearances he made in 1971 and 1972. Good for us, but sad for Len, he had sex in the film and although not right after, (Spoiler Alert) he meets a bloody end shortly thereafter. If you're into the dark, odd and creepy in your horror, find a copy of Private Parts, you may not enjoy it, but it has a certain something that's hard to shake off.
