FROZEN the original!

Warning: Spoilers
Surfing the limited channels I fell upon this super cheezer of a picture. Vivacious , lonely Arlene (Jean Christopher) the poor little RICH girl flaunts her wears around everyone including homely Bob her Brother-In-Law. Is that who I think it is? Damn It's songwriter Neil Sadaka? Things must have been slow at the Brill building in Manhattan that week. Arlene lives in a huge home with all the modern conveniences including a walk in freezer which will be used as an art studio. Overly frustrated mentally disturbed artist Bill (William Kerwin) can't get his models to stay still. Bill is haunted by a weird dream. In a heavenly setting he sees 4 or 5 beautiful woman in certain positions. Bill just happens to stumble upon Arlene's mansion and Arlene hires him as a maintenance man. For convenience sake Arlene lives alone by this time. Bill discovers the basement walk in box and a sick twisted idea came into his head. Now the artists I know use paints, pastels, clay and in-adamant objects to produce the final result calling it art. Here our psychotic Bill has his first victim, I mean subject Arlene. Sadly Arlene was the reason I was drawn into watching this sub-par production to this point.Into the cooler for her as our Artist goes to work putting her in the proper pose to complete the image he had with that dream.Soon other woman would show up and Bill the lone man of the house, would eventually lure them with a fatal cocktail and put each lady in the box. Piece by piece Bill would position each woman to his specifications making for a quite interesting finished piece of art.Our hero in all of this is the Electric Company. This creates a comical ending to a demented idea which makes this a memorable film and a great laugh out loud ending.
