Cheap and nasty - in fact, it's possible the producers intended for it to be a borderline comedy. More famous for being the original in the series which gave James Cameron his directorial debut, otherwise just one of the vanguard of 1970s bloodfests copying classics of the genre on the smell of an oily rag.
