I Dismember Mama (also known as Poor Albert and Little Annie and released in the UK as Crazed), is a 1972 American horror film written by William Norton and directed by Paul Leder. The film centers on a violent sex criminal who goes on a killing spree while watching over the daughter of one of his victims. During its original theatrical release, patrons were given free paper "Up Chuck Cups" with the purchase of a ticket. There is a well-known US trailer advertising a double feature of this film paired with the 1972 horror film The Blood Spattered Bride which was filmed in the style of a news report covering the "story" of an audience member who had gone insane while watching the films.[2] The title is a pun on the famous play I Remember Mama; however, the film is not comedic in tone.
