THIS IS CHARTER ENTERTAINMENTS R RATED VERSION RELEASED ART THE SAME TIME AS THE PG RATED VERSION.

It is likely that a psychotic surgeon murdered his wife, and he did murder his daughter's boyfriend. The surgeon is unhappy when he finds out that he has been totally cut out of his father-in-law's will and that the man's large estate is to go to his own daughter, who has run away. So the surgeon devises a plan to re-create his daughter's face from the damaged face of a go-go dancer. And with this woman's help, he begins cheating the estate and gets more demented as he continues with his plot.

A deranged plastic surgeon, who has probably murdered his wife and who definitely has murdered his daughter's boyfriend, is distressed when he learns of his father-in-law's will. Rather than leave any money to the transparently awful son-in-law, the man leaves his entire (very large) estate to the surgeon's daughter. The only problem is, the girl has run away. He hits on the scheme of re-creating his daughter face from the ruined features of a go-go dancer, and with her cooperation bilks the estate of several disbursements, growing increasingly deranged as time goes on
