"Scalps" is a bloody Native American slasher with a nice supernatural angle. Six archeology students head to the desert to search for Native American artifacts. Despite the warnings of DJ, the students disturb the ancient Indian burial ground and unleash the vengeful spirit of Black Claw. After possessing Randy, Black Claw hunts down the others with an arsenal of stone-age weapons.
Despite its crude cinematography and editing "Scalps" is an overlooked slasher with some nasty bits of gore. The throat slashing and scalping sequence truly made me squirm in my seat. A combination of desert landscapes and sinister soundtrack gives "Scalps" a raw and nihilistic atmosphere of fear and despair.
