Imagine if you will a movie that relies heavily on prostheitic make up. A facial prosthetic that is right in the main view of the camera from virtually the first shot of the movie.
Now imagine that the prosthetic looks like a 3 year old made it out of modelling clay and applied it by throwing it at the cast member from the other side of a dark room.
Add the acting ability of a dead squirrel. Mix in the script work of someone who has never had a conversation with a human of any kind.
Now throw in a mix of "anyone that's willing to be in front of a camera" despite how they look or sound. Add to this a set that is clearly filled with less people than the situation calls for.
Right has all that soaked in? 6 minutes. That all happens in the first 6 minutes of this disaster of a movie. From then on it just gets worse.
Horrible camera work, horrible sound management, horrible cast, everyone involved in this wreck should be ashamed of this.
Dismissed.

This is clearly a B-Movie, and for people who love a certain kind of bad horror film, this is really great. The actors clearly had fun with their roles too, which I think added to the fun and the charm this film had. The acting wasn't the best, but nothing felt stiff or awkward.
Like the humour is obviously dark, but honestly it was a fun horror comedy that didn't take itself too seriously.
The plot was basic, but honestly satisfying, like you really rooted for the lead character, and her murder spree. So it's not going to be the best film you will see, but if its the kind of thing you'd go for. I think you'd have a lot of fun with.

What in the world did I just watch. Elizabeth Chamberlain is Midred, a young lady with a long nose which might be the worst make-up job that I have ever seen. It seems to be made out of a piece of rubber glued onto the face of the actress.
Mildred is mocked at work and at a local bar by patrons and her self esteem is brought to a breaking point which drives her to take revenge on everyone who has wronged her.
Axes, scissors, knives, pool cues and whatever object is available are used to maim and kill her enemies for the length of the film.
The acting is at a porn movie level and only a few of the funny lines work. At least Ms. Chamberlain is likeable but as for the rest of the cast, forget it.

There exists a metaphorical circle, and contained within said circle are all things orderly and right. The circle is known as control. This movie is so far outside of that circle. From the first absolutely cringe worthy scenes, until final credit scrolls past the screen it is utter chaos. This film knows what it is and leans all the way into it, embracing every bit of insanity along the way. I was mildly entertained watching this, but mostly I'm questioning my mental stability for having sat through the entirety of it. That probably qualifies as a pre-existing condition. My health insurance is definitely going to drop me, smh. I guess that's all for this review. I have to go now. My planet needs me.
This is a pretty forgettable movie from the start, really. The movie tries to make them threatening through their brutality, but it just didn't really work for me. I'm not exactly sure why, but it might have something to do with the performances.
The movie has a surprising amount of plot to it, and the story continues beyond the point where you might expect it to end. Again, it doesn't really work for me. It's just not all that interesting.
This movie is definitely watchable, but it is very forgettable. Its attempts at becoming sort of a legal thriller really don't work. And the actual ending is embarrassing; there's no way around that.
