Bad Karma

This is bad. If you look at it like a comedy then maybe it's ok. The acting is atrocious just across the board. The sad thing is the story is interesting and could have been a good movie in the right hands. And different actors. I kept asking my husband why does Patsy Kensit keep talking like a hob goblin. Turns out she was doing an accent. But isn't that her real accent? Isn't she British? OMG the southern accent of both of them was just so bad. All southerners should be offended lol. The whole thing was just so bad. And at first I thought the the doctor/Jack's wife was his daughter too! The casting was so off too.

This movie is completely uninteresting. The story is transparent right from the start, the gore effects are poor, the flashbacks are unconvincing (those shiny clean 1888 London streets look exactly like the studio sets they are). Patsy Kensit fails to impress as a psycho killer; the other actors are forgettable. There is simply nothing good to be said about "Bad Karma". It represents the kind of by-the-numbers filmmaking that makes you feel depressed about the current state of low-budget horror films in general. (*)

Movie starts with a good nude scene and its all downhill after that. Gore was not convincing at all and the story line was VERY farfetched. Can't recommend this flick except maybe for the first 10 minutes then turn it off and watch sports!!

This film starts very well for a B movie with a beautiful blondie nude scene. After she strips in the bathroom of a gas station she's kidnapped and tortured by a maniac. Then the movie jumps in time and shows Patsy Kensit playing the same character as the unknown blondie in the beginning (they explain that she made a plastic surgery, but most probably she didn't want to show her body off). She's a psycho woman in a mental institution who manages to escape with some nice kill shots. In the first 15 minutes we get nudity and some gory death scenes. After that the film becomes predictable and finally boring, very boring. The plot about Jack the ripper reincarnation is ridiculous. I suggest you watch the movie until the psycho girl escapes and then turn off the TV.

This was great except for the plot, characters, believability, and acting. It's not the worst movie I've ever seen, but it is on the list. I'm really not sure why I didn't shut it off. Probably because the actresses were hot.
