Sinthia: The Devil's Doll (1970)

Review by Witchfinder-General-666

Sinthia: The Devil's Doll

3/10

Cute Lil' Oedipal Devil Girl in Crap County

Another 'masterpiece' by the infamous Ray Dennis Steckler, who also was the man behind the incredibly crappy but highly amusing film with the greatest title ever, "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies!!?" (1964), "Sinthia, the Devil's Doll" (1970) is an abysmally bad and virtually plot-less Trash gem that is highly recommendable to fans of 'so-bad-it's-good', but should be avoided by anyone else. The eponymous Sinthia (kudos for the clever wordplay) is a girl with certain... err... issues, who is so madly in love with her daddy that she kills both of her parents when she catches them having intercourse. Years later, Sinthia, who has blossomed into a beautiful young woman, is still tormented by guilt (the poor thing). Her psychiatrist gives her a somewhat unusual advice to make her guilt go away... Or something; the plot really is way too confused to even call it that. There are three reasons to watch "Sinthia", one being the film's extreme weirdness, another the absolute lack of logic or coherence, which, in such a uniquely outrageous extent makes it worth watching. The most convincing reason to watch "Sinthia" is the lovely Shula Roan in the eponymous role. Roan, who never appeared in any other film, is sexy and very cute, and while she certainly isn't the best actress ever, I still wish we could admire her 'talents' in a few other films. The film furthermore includes several (unintentionally?) hilarious sequences, and breasts are shown every other minute. In spite of that, it is overall very boring, and only recommendable to my fellow Trash-fans who are willing to endure periods of pure boredom for some bits of enjoyable weirdness.
