Necropolis

A few moments of creativity in an otherwise terrible film.

First and foremost, this is a bad movie.

However, there were a couple nice moments like cutting between the Christian wedding and the Satanic ceremony. There is also a fun special effects moment where the witch feeds the undead ectoplasm.

But the acting is terrible. The cinematography is terrible. The "action sequences" are so, so, very bad.

At the end of the day, you should skip this one.

Necropolis (1986) is a movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a witch from the 1600s that has been resurrected into a present day tall, gorgeous, sensual blond. She lures people into dark dingy corners, sucks the lifeforce out of them 😉, allowing the souls of her cult members from the past to return in her victims bodies. Can anyone resist her temptations?

This movie is directed by Bruce Hickey (The Hot Mess) and stars LeeAnne Baker (Breeders), Michael Conte (Panama Red), Adriane Lee (Mutant Hunt), Nadine Hartstein (Robot Holocaust) and Christina Sisinni (Mutant Hunt).

The storyline for this had a lot of potential but unfortunately was executed poorly. I will say the opening dance sequence was solid and there was plenty of nudity throughout the film; but the acting was bad, the cinematography was mediocre, the script was terrible and the horror elements were lacking. There's really no gore in this. There were some fun cult meetings and elements.

Overall this film has little going for it and is only worth seeing for the main character. I would score this a 3.5/10 and recommend skipping it.

This movie is about a witch that comes back 300 years later and dominates people by using mind control ideas into making people commit murder and suicide. This movie is awful, cheezy dance moves that aren't even fit for the oldest disco club in the world, cheap makeup that makes even the 80's version of Barbie look more attractive and fake rubber looking boobs. Need I say more, this movie is just plain terrible.

Yes, we know it's a bad movie. It's a film called Necropolis that doesn't focus on a graveyard!

However, how many films have a six-breasted witch wet-nursing zombies with ectoplasm? This mid-range b-movie clunker's good for providing a mild chuckle or two, particularly for the "satanic" interpretive dance numbers.

This is nowhere near as painful as TROLL 2 or MANOS, not that that should be a recommendation. Once upon a time, people - read teenagers - used to rent low-grade horror for the t&a and softcore sex.

As cheese it's quite piquant, but I wouldn't call it the stinkiest of cheese, we're talking mediocre awful at best. For film masochists like myself, it's just barely a diversion that you'll probably forget most of after the second beer.

It's a bad day for movies at my place. First I have to stop watching "Funeral Home" due to boredom. Then I put in this movie. Good thing I had my horror magazines to read during the slow parts. One scene with 3 pairs of dripping breasts (on one witch) cannot carry a whole movie.

It begins in the 1600's, yet the witch is wearing 80's make-up and underwear. Also she is doing a none-too-cool 80's dance. I go to 80's dance clubs and have seen nothing so goofy looking as these ridiculous steps. Not as bad as "Ghoulies IV", but quite bad.
