Final Women

Blood Theater The oldest movie reviewed here today is 1984's Blood Theatre, which involves a former theatre where a mass murder occurred being revamped years later into a cheap-o cinema. Quite frankly, I really should have reviewed this film right after I watched it, because just a few days on, I've already forgotten most of it. I could honestly tell you very little about the main plot at this point; I'm even kinda vague on how it ended. I do clearly remember one sub plot of the film though, as it involved Mary Woronov (Terrorvision), genre goddess and Andy Warhol Factory member. She plays the assistant to the owner of the movie theater chain that the titular "Blood Theater" is being added to. She's also the only competent actor in the entire movie. Her scenes are a delight to watch, and she provides the film with its few intentionally hilarious moments. If you like low-budget trash from the 80's (like-me), go ahead and check this one out in full. Otherw

I'd actually seen this one before.  Filmed in 2006, but tangled up in distribution hell in the U.S. until 2013, I was lucky enough to come across this in a video store in 2009 while living in England. I was incredibly excited to get my hands on it back then, as it had already developed a reputation as a bit of a rare treasure among horror film fans. I remember walking away from my first viewing satisfied, but admittedly could only vaguely recall the film's events by the time I noticed it was on Netflix streaming recently and decided to give it another go. Amber Heard is superb as the beautiful, virginal Mandy Lane, whom all of the boys want a shot with. Formerly unpopular, Mandy apparently blossomed over the summer before her junior year of high school. Having attracted the attention of the popular crowd, by the end of the year Mandy seems to have distanced herself from her nerdy former best friend after his prank resulted in the death of one of her admirers months before.
