    An Eye Candy classic

    This indie film by the auteur DeCoteau is the single greatest influence for the creation of the Eye Candy Hall of Fame. The cast boasts of three members of the All-Century team: the ever-so-lovely Brinke Stevens, the majestic beauty of Michelle Bauer, and the sultry Linnea Quigley. Each of our extremely fabulous leading ladies give such a high-caliber performance that it sets the standards by how we at the academy judge our potential members. As actors, they strip down to the basics and bare their natural talents unlike any other ensemble in the history of cinema. Memorable performances are the seance-transformation scene, the kitchen scene, and the bathtub scene. The auteur DeCoteau has created a masterpiece that will simply blow you away.

    Why not just rent a porno movie?

    OK, this is a harmless enough movie I guess, but it was one that really helped do in the horror genre by initiating the whole "scream queen" phenomenon where actresses of very dubious talent (Quigley, Stevens, and Bauer) and directors of extremely limited skill (Decouteau, Jim Wynorski, and Fred Olen Ray) started churning out no-budget "horror" movies that were little more than Playboy videos of attractive woman cavorting around in the nude for most of the running time. Of course, sex and nudity have long been an ingredient in horror movies, but they are not the ONLY ingredient. It's pretty cynical to paper over a total lack of talent and production values by cramming in as much T and A as possible and then try to sell it to supposedly maladjusted horror fans who, of course, can't get a date with real women so are going to spend Friday nights renting this crap.

    And after doing their part to bring down the horror genre, these same filmmakers apparently decided (perhaps rightly so)that sci-fi fans were even more pathetic, and thus they came up "sci-fi erotica" like "Femalien" and "Emmanuelle in Space" (which even Jaqueline Lovell and Krista Allen couldn't make suck any less). Then there are the "erotic thrillers", but the less said about them the better. All of which begs the question--if the only thing you're really looking for in a movie is sex and nudity, why not just rent an actual porno?

    So great.....my only comment ever!!!!!!!!!

    I have never gotten the desire to comment about a movie on these boards. If you are reading this, then behold you are indeed a part of a small piece of history. This will be the only comment about a movie I will ever make in my lifetime, on IMDb. If you are looking for a serious movie, keep moving! If you are looking for a movie that will lift your spirits...and have a wonderful time over and over again, look no further. Nightmare Sisters is the ultimate BMovie classic that captures teen antics, cheesy demons, and that 80's feel to perfection. I saw this movie when I was in my early teens, and had never forgotten about it. So much that I paid a great deal online just to have it on VHS. Thank god the movie is now on DVD. Seriously if you made it this far....take my word...this is the movie you've been looking for. Bmovie fans....don't miss out....and I bid you farewell.....

    Sleazy fun.

    Melody,Marci and Mickey are three geeky and unpopular college girls who can't get a date.One night,they invite three geeky college guys over and have a seance that results in the girls becoming possessed by a succubus and turning into sex starved vamps.The madness ensues...The plot of "Nightmare Sisters" is mainly an excuse to show tons of nudity provided by three American Scream Queens Linnea Quigley,Michelle Bauer and Brinke Stevens.This film is impossible to take seriously as it's loaded with corny dialogs and cheap special effects.The acting is rather atrocious,but you'll laugh until it hurts with this one.So invite some friends,drink tons of beer and enjoy this amusing little horror flick.7 out of 10.

    Amusing If Somewhat Inept

    Ditzy sorority nerds have a seance with some college boys and end up getting possessed by a succubus who turns them into sex-loving sirens hungry for men and possibly souls.There's not a lot of meat to this story or the characters that inhabit it, but it gets to the point quickly and doesn't overstay its welcome for too long. It's shot in a very bland, workmanlike way, but the script has some amusing moments and the actors appear to be having a good time.

    • Trivia
      Brinke Stevens provided her own dominatrix outfit.
    • Goofs
      During the exorcism scene, the drawing on the floor is not a pentagram, but instead a star of David.
    • Alternate versions
      There is a alternate television version that is shown on The USA Network that is edited for language with all nude scenes cut. It also adds additional scenes shot for television that replace the deleted nude scenes including:
      • An alternate transformation sequence of the three girls wearing lingerié replacing the nude transformation scene.
      • An alternate pie eating sequence with the girls in lingerié.
      • A completely new scene of the three girls in lingerié jumping up and down on a bed in the bedroom. They are playing with balloons and blowing bubbles (to match up with the audio soundtrack). This replaces the nude bubble bath sequence.
      • A less explicit demon sex scene with Michele Bauer in her jungle outfit.
      • Also has a completely re-shot sequence when Linnea Quigley sings Hollywood Boulevard Boys, replaces the original which has some nudity.
