Title: "Blood Sisters"
Post by: FearlessFreep on January 23, 2004, 10:37:02 PM
This week, I wastde some time with "Blood Sisters" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092673/) a fairly cliched 1987 slasher movie about a little boy who kills a bunch of prostitutes in the whore house where he lives and decades later a group of sorority pledges have to spend the night there.  Yes, the little boy has grown up, and yes he's a psychotic killer (did you have to ask?)

Anyway, this movie is fairly strightforward.  While I'm not really a fan or followe of the slasher genre, this seemed to follow the common cliches I've heard.

The only things that came to mind:
The lighting is pretty effective at making you feel trapped
There was no 'final girl'. There was one girl whom you think will fill that role but, suprisingly, she dies early .   Problem with the movie is that she was the only one with even a vague personality.   The rest of the cast never gets enough screen time to make any impression and in the end you erally don't care about who dies because they're all some bland
I guess in an attempt to wink at the audience, there are a few lines that were kinda cute:

 "And like any horror movie, the van won't start"
 "The van won't start!"

and:

"The hero is not going to rescue us"


Other than that, nothing memorable about the movie

OH OH! One of dear old Roberta Findlay's later schlock fests...Never seen it myself but from all accounts all her later solo films were pretty dire.
 
If you want some real vintage Roberta Findlay (of course her  late decapitated Husband Mike Findlay is in the actual Director's chair) then check our their wonderfully trashy "Flesh Trilogy" on a triple bill 'SWV' DVD.....The last of which ("Kiss of her Flesh") is amazingly deranged.

Yeah, I found that movie in my basement and watched it. I couldn't finish it cause I just couldn't sit through it. Don't know much to say about it.
