Motel des Sacrifices (1986)

Mountaintop Motel Massacre (also known as Mountaintop Motel) is a 1986 American horror film written and directed by Jim McCullough Sr. and starring Anna Chappell, Bill Thurman, and Amy Hill. The plot concerns a psychotic elderly woman who, after being freed from incarceration, returns to the motel she ran and begins murdering the guests.

Filmed in 1983, Mountaintop Motel Massacre was not released theatrically until 1986 when it was bought for distribution by Roger Corman's film company, New World Pictures. Although the film received negative critical reception upon its theatrical release, it has, in later years, been noted for its offbeat atmosphere, and has been referred to as an "early 1980s drive-in gem." It was later released on DVD by Anchor Bay Entertainment in 2001.
