Let me first of all say that I liked this flick. People may be surprised to hear that coming from my mouth but I'm not a fan of all Troma flicks. Some are really ridiculous but some are good, even as they still have that typical weird Troma look. And let me file this one under the better stuff coming from Troma. But I really had to search hard to lay my hands on this DVD. I never wanted the Blu Ray because I know that Troma mostly go back to the exploitation look and this one surely has that look so no HD transfer so no Blu Ray for me. But back to the hard search. It's banned in a few countries and while shopping in Germany I finally found a copy. But even then you had to proof you are older than 18. So no probs there.
What starts off as a real exploitation flick and even opens with some nasty moments turns slowly into a weird flick with stop motion and a lot of blue key shots. And don't ask me to tell you something about the story because I can't. Not that it's complicated but it's just a weird trip.
Some geeks out there will hate this flick anyhow because outside the gore and female nudity it also contains a lot of male full frontal and even has a gay overtone here and there. But if you can stand that then you are in for a real gory ride. Up to the gay part but wait a moment because they go to a strip bar and you can enjoy and sit back to see a lot of fake and real tits jumping around in all sizes pierced and not pierced. And it even moves toward gratuitous nudity when one stripper is taking a chainsaw to go for the kill. The last 20 minutes this flick moves away from the f*ckman killer into a weird flick that is so typical Troma but also a moment that some will turn it off. But wait until the end because there's still some gore to pick up.
Just watch it for the gore, nudity and the saucy sex between brother and sister and take the story for what it is, it's Troma remember, and yes, Lloyd Kaufman is doing a cameo. Maybe it's me but I did recognize some shots referring to the classics. Just see the killer smell ones face, pure Alien reference. A throwback to the seventies, overall look and score. And yes, with a commercial break halfway into the flick.
