Well, that title caught your attention, didn't it? I am going to copy over most of what I said about it in the "Toxie's Top Ten" thread and then add some more info. Spoilers do follow.
A woman and her fiancee get lost on their way to Vegas to get married. The girl, who has an identical twin who can feel what she feels, is soon very worried. After getting directions at a little town that is not on their map, the pair try to continue but run out of gas because their tank was punctured. Soon, black-clad satanists assemble around the two travelers. The guy is set on fire, but the girl is raped, then stabbed.
The surviving twin wakes up from a nightmare at the moment of her sibling's death. She immediately sets out to look for her missing twin. Eventually, she tracks down the satanists (well, they come after her) and is captured. The high priest (Robert Tessier - Thor from "Starcrash") saves the movie from being a complete waste by screaming out some evil prayers and then drinking toad's blood, sanctified by Satan. Apparently, toad's blood makes men really potent. The high priest calls out something along the lines of, "Let's this toad's blood give me the power to impregnate this slut!" and tries to go to town. Unfortunately, the girl gets away and a chase through the desert ensues.
It is one heck of a boring flick. You know the MST3K episode of "The Lost Continent" that turns into a running rock climbing joke? This one would be driving/walking in the desert. That happens a lot and even the chase scenes get boring mighty fast. If you took out the driving/walking in the desert parts of the movie, I think it would be 15 minutes long.
The movie appears to have used a lot of poorly done "night for night" shots and I think that the DVD authors tried to brighten up the print the best that they could. Daylight scenes look decent, though they remind me of the quality of a 70's TV flick.
Yeah, they set people on fire four or five times. I think that every time the director realized the movie might be putting the audience to sleep, he resorted to immolating a stuntman. "This is a boring scene. Let's set Burt on fire again!"
This is a very boring film. It is a skull.
