What happens

Patrick Still Lives (Italian: Patrick vive ancora, also known as Patrick Is Still Alive) is a 1980 Italian horror film directed by Mario Landi, and his last film. It is a low-budget unauthorized sequel of the Australian horror Patrick from two years earlier. It is known primarily for its graphic scenes of sex and gore, notably an extremely graphic scene of rape, which ended with the victim disembowelled with a poker. The film was shot in the same house later used as main set in Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
