The Monster Of Piedras Blancas director Irv Berwick helmed this tawdry tale from 1964 about a med student (Solomon Sturges) whose rampant voyeurism threatens to derail his future as a physician. Sturges, the son of Hollywood legend Preston Sturges (Sullivan's Travels), offers a credible performance as the pervert peeper that helps elevate Strange Compulsion above the usual dross while also giving voyeurs in the audience an eyeful of his ovoidal obsessions. With Jason Johnson (The Cape Canaveral Monsters) as the vexed voyeur's shrink and Annabelle (Don't Look In The Basement) Weenick as the source of his mommy issues. "Tex"-ploitation mainstay Dale Berry of Hot Blooded Woman infamy also appears, as does Beverly Oliver, the star of Berwick's clammy Christian clunker Suddenly The Light (1978).
