Deine Schönheit ist dein Verderben

I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be serious or not - it was too bad to be serious and not amusing enough to be funny - but I still sat down one Saturday afternoon and watched it. The worst part of all is if it came on telly again I would probably watch it.

This movie was really good. Yasmine Bleeth played a beauty pagent contestant who always came 2nd to another contestant. Suddenly, things start to happen to the other contestant that makes Danielle( Yasmine Bleeth) become the 1st place winner, since she was 1st runner up. Then something permanent happens to the other contestent, leaving Danielle as the main suspect, along with a jealous mother and her ex-boyfriend, who was the father of her unborn child. If you want to know what happened in this movie, please watch it. It is a very good movie, i give Yasmine 10 stars for looking gorgeous in the movie. The movie is worthy of praise and gives new meaning to the words "Beauty Pagent"

So I found myself home watching Unsolved Mysteries this morning, vegetating on the couch, and this movie comes on afterward. It as terrible!

I mean... my God. Completely awful.

If you want a funny beauty pageant movie, check out Drop Dead Gorgeous, not this second rate mediocre rip off.

This pageant movie definitely lives up to it's title. It is one of the premiere of campy and catty pageant movies.....and a whole lot of fun too!! It definitely is successful in it's pursuit as the tongue in cheek/drama that it is attempting to be. Yasmine Bleeth and Cassidy Rae play their roles to the hilt as catty, feuding pageant contestants. Jill Clayburg is also great as Yasmine's nutty pageant stage mother. George Eads from the TV show CSI plays the man they are feuding over. I enjoyed this film much more than a similar film entitled Beauty's Revenge which stars Cortney Thorne-Smith. With the silly Dairy Queen premise Beauty's Revenge left me "udderly" bored.

A `Wacky Chick' flick. A beauty contestant winds up dead and the Usual Suspects are rounded up. Another entry in the vein of the Texas Cheerleader, this is an average example of its type.

Yasmine Bleeth turns in her usual wholesome girl performance, and Jill Clayburgh does a good job as her stressed-out slightly obsessed mom.

Some mildly funny moments listening to the vapid self-serving PR coming out of contestants' mouths. (`I'd like to own a restaurant so I can give left-over food to the homeless.')

You have to ask yourself what people are using for brains when they think a cheerleader spot or beauty crown is worth killing for!
