    Not Exactly What We'd Call Horror....

    Despite the fact that when we watched this we had to watch it completely in polish, without any subtitles, and had no idea what they were saying the whole time, we actually really enjoyed this title.

    However I think labeling it as a 'Horror' is a little bit strong. There isn't exactly anything Horrific in this film. OK so the robotic grannies are a little bit scary, but beyond that there isn't really a lot in this film that we would say would constitute to using the word horror. In fact, there were parts of this film that were quite comic.

    In fact, We actually found ourselves rooting for the granny in the end of the film.

    The acting wasn't terrible and the story-line was actually pretty good, not original, but then again, most horror films are just the same story-lines that are recycled and presented in a different way anyway, and would have probably been a lot better if we actually understood what was being said.

    Overall we quite enjoyed this film, not necessarily a film we'd watch again, but it was still enjoyable, just don't expect it to scare the pants off you.

    The clash of two robotic grandmas.

    Two robotic grandmas made by Biotex company fight with each other in "Babicky dobíjejte presne!".One of them Carmen(older model)was purchased by the family of three.Another one Rose(newer model)was purchased by their neighbors.Before final clash robotic grandmas kill two pets:the cat and the dog."Grandmothers Recharge Well!" is an amusing black comedy with a bit of horror thrown in.Actually it was shown on Polish television in 1984 or 1985.The robotic grandmas look quite funny and there is no gore or profanity.The acting is quite good and there are some amusing moments.If you liked Juraj Herz's "Vampire Ferat" or "Terminator" with Arnold Schwarzenegger give this one a look as soon as possible.8 hanged cats out of 10.

    My childhood nightmare.

    I really dreamt about one scene when I was 6. I probably shouldn't have watched it then 😂

    • Trivia
      The film is officially an adaptation of the newspaper short story 'Cerná a bílá' ('Black and White') by Zdenek Hrebík. However, the idea of a cybernetic grandmother was developed several decades earlier by Jan Werich in another short story and shortly after him by animator Jirí Trnka in his short film La grand-mère cybernétique (1962).
