This is a classic example of a B film. Theatres back then had double features where you got two films for the price of one and the second movie was usually low budget stuff, and often relied on being a bit edgier than the usual fare to make up for the cheaper production. Video tapes only started to become a thing a decade after this, and didn't get really big until the 1980s.
Interesting. I Wonder why did 2 movies in the first place.
Probably more opportunity to sell concessions.
Movies also weren't 4 hours long with no intermission like they are now.
