Summary: Low budget, silly, but fun...
Review: My expectations weren't too high for this film, and perhaps that's why I enjoyed it. "Citizen Kane", "The Searchers", "Lawrence of Arabia", the list of films that this movie doesn't even come close to goes on and on. But taken for what it is, it's got some laughs and scares. The acting is a collection of good and bad. Amy Shelton-White as the put-upon girlfriend is quite good and I wish there was more of her. The same goes for Tara Killian as the spoiled actress "Portia". I could have used much less of Lorissa MacComas. Actually, SHE could use less of herself.

As the last film made at Roger Corman's Venice Beach studio, this will earn a place in film history books, so it's a shame it's not better. Oh well. If you like nudity and slasher-type murders, this is a film for you. I'm giving it three stars on a decidedly different scale than I use for the films mentioned at the start of this review. :-)

And by the way, the director's commentary is all "me me me me me." It's not very informative or interesting.

Summary: Dashed are the dreams of the righteous
Review: Slaughter Studios is more than a movie. It is more than an event. It is life itself. There is no one that can place themselves right alongside a character in this film and not yell 'Oh my God! That's me!!!'

First we have our 'Director'. A man with a dream, a camcorder, a two page script, and an array of misfit actors. See him try to get everything together for 'the ultimate movie', yet see his dream smashed on the rocks of a stormy beach. The cast won't cooperate, the night watchman is lurking about, there's a ghost, and a horndog Arab boy. Who can win with this much against them? Alas our hero dies miserably, film unmade.

Next is our 'Horndog'. What 12 year old boy didn't act like this? What 20 year old man? What 30 year old man? Yes the story and character are as old as mankind itself. Guys like big breasts and think of sex 23 hours a day (when they're not eating).

Next is our 'Starlet'. She is beautiful, spoiled, a pain in the arse, and drugged up. She reminded me of my prom date in everyway. She won't take her top off until she's drugged, she can't be raped until she's willing. She dies without knowing what's going on. How many lovely bimbos do we know who are just like this? God bless them all.

Now for our 'Goth'. She's smart, she hot, she wears black lipstick. Not nude as often as I'd like, but an able bodied chum you can depend on. Like all Goths.

On to our 'Super-Chested Fantasy Girl'. Ah, now here's a woman! Stacked in front and back. Her downfall is her love for the dead actor. Her scrapbook and devotion reminds me of my Marilyn Monroe collection. Though I never met her, I've been in love with her all my life. I can only hope she doesn't kill me someday.

How about the 'Demure sex kitten'? She's quiet, you can walk all over her, and she'll take all your abuse. To boot she has a great body and looks swell with her hair down. She's like the cousin in your own family that you wish you weren't related to. You might as well forget about what you're thinking everytime you see her. Believe me, I gave in to temptation. Family reunions were never the same. She doesn't like my wife and my old lady won't let us out of her sight for a second. It's a good thing I married a cousin through marriage. Of course there's always the lesbian fantasy, but we get that in our film here.

Finally we have our 'I'm just a dude in a bug costume guy'. The common man, the good man, the man of virtue and truth. Oh how well known you are my friend, though unappreciated. I salute you sir. For the common good of society, you are the corner stone.

Good Night.
