Sometimes Aunt Martha Does Dreadful Things
Stanley and Paul, a pair of friends on the run from the law, rent a house in the suburbs, where they decide the best way to lay low is for Paul to dress as a woman and pretend to be Stanley's Aunt Martha. Not too long after the pair move into their new home, Paul suddenly murders a young woman Stanley brings home with him. Paul's violent tendencies continue to spin out of control, and soon nobody who comes near is safe from him. (imdb)

Out of the sunshine and cocaine of South Florida, comes this interesting early 70's crime/horror "queer" exploitation film. The odd combination of mild slasher/thriller violence, with a bit of commentary/satire{?} on the hippie/counterculture in America, and some abusive-relationship drama with a homoerotic slant, altogether made this a kind of low-budget cult classic of sorts.

The comparisons to Norman Bates are obvious and apt, but it goes further because it has basically both of his personalities split into two people with an added implied homosexual relationship and tension. Could've used some better kills to really push it to the upper echelon of horror, but it's more of a thriller than a slasher like the title and poster imply (the title is one of the best). Any fans of John Waters have to see this movie.
