Dull, meandering softporn "horror
Probably written in less than five minutes...
Basically a backwoods guy with a raccoon hat shoots down a plane with four passengers, and kills two of them, and then gets shot in the face with a flare gun. No back stories at all. Dialogue consisting largely of imaginative lines like, "Where are you going?" "I'm going to sit under that tree over there." The highlights include the Bushwhacker supposedly striking Sherry very hard, but rather than using sound effects, the director keeps the music going at full blast, and we see the BW gingerly touch her, as she writhes in pain. Then the BW picks up a flimsy piece of a shrub, and whip her with it. This is the equivalent of whipping someone with a flower! He then leads her away with a rope with a red hair cloth over her mouth so she won't scream, but he doesn't tie up her hands, so she could take the hair cloth off anytime she wants to, but for some reason, doesn't...
For those who like such things, the only redeeming factors are a decent jazz group basically playing a few original tunes and improvising, and watching Sherry being carried around nude and "touched" to death. Even the legendary lesbian necrophilia scene is quite a letdown.
