Blood Sisters

You know something? Brian Damage Films has put out a lot of good movies in the past. But lately I've noticed that they are just not cutting it anymore. And with this release, it just hammers the company further into the ground. This was even worse than the Witchcraft movies and that's pretty bad. The plot really didn't make a damn bit of sense, the sound was horrible. This movie was just plain bad. Although, Phoebe Dollar did a pretty good job and was the one who kept the movie alive. She just has that evil look that we all love. Another thing that irritated me about this video was the gore effects. They were unconvincing! Gosh, I can do better with the gore effects and I don't even have any money. Oh wait, they didn't either. I give this a 1. That's it. It sucked!

I did enjoy this movie. It is a low budget vampire flick with a very attractive female cast doing a good job with the material, especially Kelly Marie. The effects are not all that bad and there is more of a story than in most "A" Hollywood movies. A sorority of hot mysterious girls may be involved in the disappearance of several people on campus. Meanwhile a pretty journalist major starts her first semester at campus. She is of course aggressive an interested in this mystery on campus. Will she be able to find out what is going on without getting into harms way? That's more or less the premise here. And the movie-makers do a good job at working the story out. There's some enjoyable and erotic nudity, too. It is true that the sound could be much better, but for a few bucks this movie is a good deal.

Throw in seedy nudity, throw in endless blood and that's all it has going for it. I guess non-stop parading isn't a bad thing. I guess. 'Blood Sisters' is a no-budget straight-to-video modern vampire effort that's lost within its repetitive actions, uninteresting story and bare looking production. The cheapness reeks off the screen. Limited sets, terribly cheesy background music and lousily crude effects. No you didn't hit the replay button, the director liked to show the neck feeding (that's all we get) in bloody glory over and over again for every possible victim. Before that occurred you might be lucky enough for one of the female vampires or victims to go about stripping and flaunting about… but directly to the camera. This could go for about a couple minutes and it pretty much opens up that way. The attacks are vicious, but are lifelessly staged.

The performances are implausibly low-end in quite a self-aware and exploitative style. The interactions between Erica Howards and Kerry Lui were rib-tickling. Deborah Huber leads the way as head vampire of a small sorority group. Who snarl a lot and bare their fangs at nearly opportunity. For a society trying to stay secret, they certainly bring a glaring amount of attention to themselves. What did catch my eye though was in one scene there has got to be one fashionable tie I've ever seen.

Tracy has just started at her new college, where she learns from her roommate that students have been disappearing. She then gains the attention of an exclusive sorority group when she starts poking her nose in their business.

It felt like it was trying to head back to those sensually erotic vampire flicks of the 70s, but with its lack of style and visual creativity it came off low-brow, mundane and lacking atmosphere. The pacing is really sluggish and confused script is awkwardly blunt. Some old vampire folklore (stake to heart) is mixed with new (vampire can't go in the sun after feeding).

Mainly unexciting, saved by a few pleasurable inclusions.
