Horror Scenes That I Love: Lynda Day George Goes To Pieces


This scene comes from the 1982 film, Pieces.  It’s not easy find an appropriate scene to share from Pieces, or at least a scene that I can share without this site getting in trouble.  Just about every scene in the movie features either nudity or really bloody violence.  It’s probably nothing that would shock our wonderfully jaded readers but still….

But then there’s this scene right here.  Now, in order to understand what’s happening here, you should keep in mind that Lynda Day George is playing an undercover cop who also happens to be a tennis pro.  She’s been assigned to the local college.  Her job is to figure out who is using a chainsaw to kill all of the students.  Unfortunately, she sucks at her job so she has to get this kinda nerdy college student to help her out.

Anyway, after a fun-filled morning of playing tennis and not looking for the killer, they’ve just discovered a dead body in the showers.  Yes, the killer has struck again and …. well, it was really messy.  Speaking as someone who appreciates a clean house and a carefully organized day, I can relate to the reaction below.

  1. I own this movie. It’s not good in any way but it is indeed great – because it single-mindedly told the story it wanted to tell…and a hilarious bit of advertising helped it break through the horror clutter to live forever!
