Genetic Force

I recently purchased this film off ebay recently and i figured to buy it and see if its any good? The fighting within the film is not as what you call first rate, i've seen better, but the scenes were good. Also you get outtakes from the film, e.g. making line mistakes etc. Shannon Tweed does a good job of playing a innocent mum to mistress to the evil "roach", what a name. I've seen quite a few of Shannon Tweed's films, some of which i have on DVD, Body Chemistry 4 to name one, Overall i rated this 3 stars as its OK in some places, but her other films have done a lot better. If you've got a collection of her films like I have, add this one to spice it up slightly.

While cruising the cable movie channels before bed, I saw "Electra" coming up. I saw that the film was dated 1995 and so assumed it was an earlier, not-talked about version of the story of the Marvel comics character. Not being too familiar with the story, it took some time for me to clue into the fact that this film was something entirely different. Something quite shocking, frankly.

The expression "train wreck", where you can't pull your eyes away from something so terrible because of a perverted sort of pleasure, this movie lured me in and kept me watching. I was laughing at several points in this movie, and was even slightly disgusted at other times. However, I continued, watching the twisted metal as it piled up and began to buckle.

It is a fairly interesting psychological exercise to watch this film and try to imagine the thought processes behind the ideas in the film. If psychology is not your cup of tea, an equally enjoyable time can likely be had from watching this movie after a few beers. The thought processes are simply bizarre and the film jumps from one scenario to the next at a lively pace. Nothing about the film is formulaic or predictable.

I cannot in good conscience give this movie a 9, even though for me the experience was magical, simply because I expect some people would be unable to keep watching. If you are ready to see a ridiculous flick (think "Killer Tomatoes" but with the humour strictly unintentional), and can stand the raunch, this film delivers high train wreck value.

Electra is an awful erotic comedy concerning a widowed woman, played by the absolutely gorgeous Shannon Tweed, who is desperate to get it on with her stepson who just happens to possess superhuman powers. This is totally awful film which consists of busty women in fetish gear performing in terribly tacky fight scenes. One fleeting glimpse of Shannon Tweeds bare breasts is all you see, although you do see her in leather bondage gear, which is the highlight of this terrible, terrible, terrible film. However if I could spend a night with any woman on the planet i'd still choose Shannon Tweed every time. Shannon Tweed is beyond dispute the sexiest "older woman" in movie history. If only she'd get her panties off more in genuinely sexy films instead of putting her name to rubbish like this.

Where does one begin in trying to describe this movie? Even as over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek movies go, this is an experience that is particularly hard to describe. First off, this film is not for everybody, as I'm sure many people would have a problem with the major sexual tension between stepmom and son. For those of you who are not offended, prepare for a ridiculous plot, hilariously bad fighting scenes, and some truly abysmal out-takes that were rescued from the chopping room floor for our...um...pleasure. This film is SO bad, in fact, that it's almost worthwhile. If you thought that only Ed Wood could make films so bad that they're funny, then this film proves you wrong. I saw this film alone, and found it to be funny at times. Watch this film with a group of friends, and you'll probably enjoy a laugh riot.

My housemate and I watched this movie out of sheer lack of anything better to do one day - oh how glad we are that we did! This is quite possibly the funniest film in the "unintentionally so" category. Complete with mid-air cat fights, bizarre "torture" scenes and actors who skillfully skate past the whole incest issue, this film is a must for an evening in with a bunch of friends. Crank your willing suspension of disbelief to the maximum setting and enjoy!
