Plot Summary:
This uses the barely released Dr. Shagetz (1975), which involved a mad doctor helping to keep a town of elderly people alive, as its backbone. Around 1983/84 the original film was edited down considerably and many new exploitative scenes were shot (by Mardi Rustam) and added to the works.

This mishmash of footage shot a decade apart was then delivered to video stores in 1987 under the new title Evil Town.
