I saw the movie and taped it on VHS video tape.
It waa OK. I thought "Roda" was going to get a spanking in a couple scenes but she didn't.
The final scene was when Rhoda was at the dock with a net on a metal pole trying to retrieve a medal she had taken from a boy whom she killed to get it. As she lowered the net into the water, a bolt of lightning struck the pole and she was eletricuted..

There was a curtain call introducing the cast one by one. Patti McCormick (Rhoda) was introduced and the last couple remaining cast members were presented. The last was the mother who looked over at her and said, "and as for you," and walking over to the couch where Patti was sitting and pulled her over her knee and began spanking her with Patti yelling and after about the 5th blow the scene fades out.
I remember that very well!
