A serial killer who practices necrophilia and cuts the bodies of his victims into pieces? Jeff doesn\u2019t really care as long as it has Rory Calhoun in the cast. The Grue-Crew are divided on this one, especially Chad (actually, Chad is pretty certain), but they all agree the strength of the movie is its cast. Susan Tyrrell and Dick Shawn steal every scene they\u2019re in, and Rory plays an actor from B-movie westerns like the actor from B-movie westerns he is. Cliff Gorman is the earnest and compassionate detective who completes the caring group of friends acting as Molly\/Angel\u2019s (Donna Wilkes) family. Angel is a quirky one, but three-fourths of the Grue-Crew enjoyed the film. However, the three sequels might be a different story. At the time of this writing, Angel (1983) is available to stream from PlutoTV, Plex, Vudu\/Fandango, Night Flight, and Troma Now. It\u2019s also available on physical media as a Blu-ray formatted disc from Vinegar Syndrome,  Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine\u2019s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s.
