deranged (dict)

DerangedDeranged is an American movie made in 1974 and directed by Alan Ormsby. Obviously influnced by the true case of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein, the movie stars Roberts Blossom as Ezra Cobb, a seriously disturbed man in his fifties who is dominated by his bed-ridden mother. Cobb, who is evidently a psychopath, begins digging up bodies of women from a local cemetary before progressing to murder. Although the tone of the film is disturbing, just like the subject matter, there are occasional glimpses of black comedy. At various points, a narrator delivers an update on what's going on and suggesting to the viewers what horrors will lay ahead, all delivered in an appropriately creepy tone of voice. It is a low-budget movie that has since become something of a cult film. Also See Ed Gein Deranged at the Internet Movie Database
