Lizzie Borden's Revenge

Ah, yes. Dennis Devine.

To paraphrase Withnail, I watched this movie by mistake on YouTube, on a tablet, while waiting for a delayed flight.

As someone else asked: why?

As in: why are such movies made? Who bankrolls 'em? Do they make any money? What is the unseen, unknown part of the equation here? I do not see it, I certainly do not know it...

To me, this movie seems like something a bunch of (probably drunk) friends could have come together to make using an iPhone camera - as a joke. You know, as something they'd later show to other friends - as a joke.

But it ain't that. It's an actual movie production (such as it is). And I don't get it. Is it - specifically - made for people who watch movies whilst drunk or stoned? Is there a whole, separate market (demography) for such movies that I'm not aware of? But - if so - er...WHY (again)? Wouldn't it be cheaper and more sustainable for everyone involved if that demography just watched random YouTube clips of - I don't know - fat dudes on trampolines, cats slapping unaware dogs, soccer players accidentally getting kicked in the nuts, and so on?

How are movies like this a part of the movie industry in the post-Internet era? (I guess that's what I'm asking).

Fascinating phenomenon.

No more words are needed. I've added this sentence as my review was too short.

This is a good nudity film with some live tits and ass. The girls look good, and the soft core scenes are nice. The acting is decent, what you would expect from a low budget soft core movie. The suspense is good, I was surprised quite a few times. The Lizzie Borden relative part of the plot is new, and added an interesting twist to the movie. Also, the half insane sister was cryptic and cute. There was a bit of gore, but nothing too stomach turning. All in all this was a nice film with good looking naked girls having fun with a bit of supernatural horror and suspense added in to make it an interesting plot. Not grade A block buster, but a fun movie to watch for some laughs, scares, and hot chick watching.

Unless it's softcore porn, excessive nudity of beautiful young women for no reason really doesn't have any business being in a movie categorized as horror. The difference with movies like Friday the 13th or Halloween is that the sex and nudity is symbolic to breaking sexual abstinence, the killer is the punishment for that. This movie was just replete with shameless nudity in a non-porn genre to the point that it almost could be classified as porn. On top of that, the movie looks cheap, the gore effects are terrible, and the acting is god awful. It's as if the director just rounded up the most attractive women who were willing to get naked for him on camera. What a hunk of crap.

Lizzie Bordon's revenge is a B-slasher-movie that stars Veronica Ricci, Marlene Mc'Cohen, and Jenny Allford as the real-life titular character. It revolves around a group of sorority women. One of which, Leslie, just so happens to be the descendant of the Borden family. As such, the group, as an intentional joke, summon the spirit of Miss Borden. But all hell soon breaks loose as each of the young women are brutally murdered one by one.

Let me start off by saying that I am quite appalled by all the negative reviews the IMDB page is littered with; not only that, there is not one other positive review besides mine. That being said, I may very well be the only person on the page who legitimately finds this low-budget movie entertaining. Sure, it does contain some graphic nudity, but I should also mention that it does have an actual plot, and the acting itself is not half-bad.

Now the direction does leave much to be desired. But again, this is a low-budget slasher, so what do you expect? I really can't help but wonder if the makers of this running over all the audiences dogs is the reason for all the low ratings. Oh well, ignorance is bliss.
