4/10
Fascinating
28 January 2023
I couldn't take my eyes off this glorious disaster. I suspect the writers started out as working on multiple separate films, and later they were combined into one screenplay. Perhaps they originally thought that they were going to make more of these. So entire chunks of this appear to be going in one direction each(!), only for a half hearted resolution, if any.

I especially thought that the trace amounts of feminism must have originally been supposed to be much more prominent, and lead to something. Every so often, especially with the hilariously over-the-top villain Helen, a point will be raised(men are shown to not respect women, sex appeal is presented as a way to control straight dudes, etc.), and even when it isn't undermined with some ridiculous male gaze(with the director engaging in some "look at my hot wife"), it never ends up feeling fully formed.

This features bloody, gory, disturbing violence. I recommend it to fans of watchable bad movies. 4/10.
