Description: This gritty character study chronicles the ruthless exploits of an ambitious, cold-blooded rock singer who will do anything to make it to the top, even if it means sleeping with an older woman and robbing her while she sleeps. Following the theft, he heads for Hollywood and engages a top agent; he soon begins an affair with the agent’s wife. At the same time, he also impregnates a teenager who he takes to a veterinarian for an abortion. He dumps her when he begins to get popular.
A psychotic folk-rocker takes a trip to oblivion
There just aren’t many films about psychotic folk-rockers, but this long thought-lost 1965 psychodrama blazes that trail. Schuyler Hayden portrays a mentally disturbed young musician who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. The film is a low-budget affair, but director James “THE SADIST” Landis and the soon-to-be-famous cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond have crafted an edgy portrait of narcissism run rampant.
Aside from the expressionistic B&W cinematography, Ronald Stein’s pulsating rock ‘n’ roll score contributes nervous energy to the events on screen. The music is somewhat reminiscent of the great “orchestral rockabilly” score that accompanied the car chases in Robert Mitchum’s THUNDER ROAD.
Like 1960’s PRIVATE PROPERTY (which also disappeared from the marketplace in the mid-1960’s), RAT FINK has been unearthed more than 50 years after its final drive-in theater engagement. It’s great to have these long-unseen films resurface in Eroti.ga and SleazeMovies.com
