Anecdotes
Tom Savini once said in an interview that the corpses in the film were made using human skull plastic model kits which were glued to bodies made of chicken wire and painted cotton. The corpses' faces were created by taking plaster casts of various relatives of the crew members, including producer Tom Karr's wife.

Gaffes
When Ezra is feeding Ma Cobb, she begins spewing blood from her mouth and nose. She turns her head slightly, and the tube that the blood is coming out of can be seen.

Citations
Ma Cobb: Remember what I've always told you: the wages of sin is gonorrhea, syphilis, and death.

Versions alternatives
The UK theatrical version of the film was heavily cut by the BBFC for gore and violence and the 1998 Exploited Video DVD release of it was cut by 18 seconds by the BBFC to remove shots of bloodstained breasts from the gutting of a woman's body during its ending. The 2013 UK Arrow Video Blu-ray release of it is the complete and uncut version, with all of the previous cuts that were made by the BBFC waived.

A true bone-chiller.

Over the years there have been a number of films, both horror and thriller, that have been inspired by the real-life crimes of the infamous Ed Gein. Yet, this was the first film to be closely based on the real Ed Gein.

Reclusive old man loses his mind after the death of his mother and starts to rob graves. But that's just the beginning of terrors to come.

While In the Light of the Moon (2000) may be the more accurate film for the true story of Gein, Deranged is the most effectively frightening. Deranged is an example of low-budget film making at it's best. It sports a believably dark atmosphere and the feeling of chilling realism. In fact some sequences from this film (especially the midnight 'dinner' scene) are simply unforgettable.

The cast of the film is good, but the real highlight of it all is in it's star Robert Blossoms. Blossoms brings such a genuine believability to his crazed character and at times makes him quite sympathetic! That achievement alone is impressive.

Also of note, this was one of the early films for makeup FX artist Tom Savini and his creations for the film are well-done. Adding even more to the sheer spookiness of this film is it's musical score, which is comprised of religious songs.

While Deranged may not have the fame of other low-budgeters of it's day, it is none the less a masterful horror picture that deserves a place in the history of low-budget horror.

*** 1/2 out of ****
