The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Ormond was given an informative write up years ago in "Pyschotronic"; though his cult seems still very small. Too bad; his crazy films are highly enjoyable and entertaining. I got a copy of "The Grim Reaper" at some cult movies place in L.A. many years ago, I remember it being a lot of fun; if not quite the equal of the insane "Monster" or "Girl From Tabacco Road." I hope they get a Ron Ormond Compleate Box Set out someday, they sure don't make them like this anymore. I believe some of the footage from "The Grim Reaper" ended up in Diane Keaton's "Heaven."

Not to be confused with Joe D'Amato's cannibal in a castle movie Anthropophagous(also known as The Grim Reaper), Ron Ormond's The Grim Reaper is the delirious fusion of Drive-In Exploitation and Baptist propaganda. The story is about a torn family... Mother and Younger Son are devout Baptists, Father and Older Son are not. When the older son's dream of making it big in stock-car racing leads to his twisted mangled death, the mother and father learn first hand that communicating with spirits of the dead is dangerous. The Grim Reaper is Ron Ormond's second best Christsploitation film, following his Communist-scare classic If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do?. This is too bizarre for words and must be experienced to be believed.
