Private Parts
In the sleaziest corner of Los Angeles, the King Edward Hotel has a new arrival in the form of Cheryl, a runaway teen. She's hoping to put her life back together but somewhere in the musty halls of the King Edward lurks another guest — who just loves to chop people apart!
Why it matters
A grimy, grindhouse-flavored slasher that trades subtlety for raw, unsettling atmosphere in a decaying urban nightmare.
- Early ’70s slasher before the subgenre codified, blending exploitation grit with proto-slasher tension.
- The King Edward Hotel itself is a character—claustrophobic, claustrophobic, and soaked in neon-soaked decay.
- Practical gore effects lean into visceral, unpolished brutality, a welcome antidote to glossy modern slasher fare.
- Not for the faint of heart or those expecting narrative polish—this one’s a slow-burn descent into seedy dread.
