Ruth Roman, once major Hollywood lead and survivor of the ANDREA DORIA disaster, pulls all the stops in the role of Mrs. Wadsworth, a hardened menopausal bitch who has characteristically stultified her adult son into perpetual infancy through cruel behavioral modification practices(with significant help from her two insane, but very foxy, daughters). A young social worker enters the scene, convinced that "Baby" is not the childlike imbecile his family insists that he is, and that there may be an unsettling explanation for his behavior. The Wadsworths, however, are not about to give up their precious "baby" without a fight.
This one's a minor classic of its kind, and with far better performances and production values than anyone would ever expect of such niggling material. Drive-in hyperweirdness with an appropriately bizarre final curtain that must be seen to be believed.
6/10. Recommended.
