The Haunted World Of El Superbeasto Film Review

When you think of writer , producer , musician and director Rob Zombie you don't usually think of comic book movies. Instead you think of bottom of the barrel horror movies with him only making a very few select handful of good horror movies throughout the years and yet in 2009 he went and gave us not only his first ever animated movie but also his first ever comic book movie that whilst it's not as good as The Spine Of Night or even Mad God for that matter is still a pretty decent adult animated comedy and so then join me as I review the film that could technically be considered apart of the same world as House Of 1000 Corpses , The Devil's Rejects and 3 From Hell with the film in question being called simply just "The Haunted World Of El Superbeasto" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when an exotic dancer is kidnapped by a gorilla and is forced into marrying his boss it's up Superbeasto and his sister to rescue her before he takes over the world. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that' actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad however tho this films plot really isn't all that good as outside of that basic premise the film really does have next to nothing going for it when it comes to it's plot with it seeming like that the characters are just doing things for random reasons alot of the time but to be fair to this film tho this is the kind of film that really doesn't require much of a plot to being with as the film lets you know right away what kind of a film that your in for and therefor you can just leave your brain at the door because of it with this movies plot being dumb but enjoyably dumb like the makers of this film knew fully well just what kind of film that they were making and so they just went all out with just how dumb that this films plot could be and that is something that does work really well for his film as this is a film that really doesn't need a deep and though provoking plot in order for it to work as it just needs the bare bones of a plot and that's really and to be fair that's exactly what this films plot really is and while yes it would have been nice if this film did have much a more stronger plot to it it's not something that's not only not needed it's also something that really hasn't been Rob Zombie's strongest suit either with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is this films co-writer Tom Papa as El Superbeasto and Sheri Moon Zombie as Suzi-X. Also starring in this film is Paul Giamatti as Dr. Satan / Steve Wachowski , Rosario Dawson as Velvet Von Black , Tom Kenny as Otto , Rover , Old Man and Herbie , Brian Posehn as Murray The Robot , Dee Wallace as Trixie , Ken Foree as Luke St. Luke , Geoffrey Lewis as Lenny Crumpski and Roy Sullivan , Lew Temple as Adam Banjo , Rob Paulsen as Michael , Bobby Hyde , Commandant Hess , El Gato , Grossburger and Creature Preacher , Daniel Roebuck as Morris Green , Danny Trejo as Boss Rico , Cassandra Peterson as Amber , Debra Wilson as Cigarette Girl , Bride Frankenstein , Female Patron , Stripper in Hall , Telephone Victim and Old Woman , Clint Howard as Joe Cthulhu , Kevin Michael Richardson as Santa Baby , April Winchell as Dame Grace Appleton , Liza , Babs , Dolly , Joan , Gloria , Scripty and Helga Strudel , John DiMaggio as Burt The Spurt , Laraine Newman as Lefty , Kate , Courtney , Smelga Strudel and Betty Sue Lou , Jess Harnell as Soundy , Cameraman , Astronaut , Willey The Worm and Uncle Carl , Charlie Adler as Krongar , Mooney McMoon and Albino Singer , Joe Alaskey as Van Sloan , Jack and Erik The Newscaster , Harland Williams as Gerard The Exterminator , Carlos Alazraqui as Bennie Rodriguez , Sid Haig as Captain Spaulding , Bill Moseley as Otis Driftwood and Tura Satana as Varla.

Now the  interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. With this films shockingly turning in some really good performances in this film something which both is and isn't all that surprising it is surprising in the sense that alot of the regular Rob Zombie actors especially his wife are in this movie and there all actually decent in this film and it's not all that shocking in the sense that alot of this films actors are a bunch of a really good actors in their own right with even three maybe even four of them reprising theirs roles not only from other movies but from other Rob Zombie movies as well with even Sheri Moon Zombie who at best is just OK in other films here is actually quite decent and while she's not a good voice actor by any stretch of the imagination the fact that she is willing to try it out and she still manages to turn in a good performance is something that makes her performance in this film really fun to watch as it's clear as day that she's having a blast starring in this film with the films best actor being Rosario Dawson as she just has all of these fun lines to say and she makes them count by giving us a performance that is quite easily the best one in the whole film just due to the fact that she's quite clearly having a fun time in making this film with the acting that's in this film not really being helped by this films script as the script for this film is just so bad as it gives none of this films actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does hurt the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Doing the animation for this films is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Carbunkle Cartoons and Big Star Enterprise. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad as while this is still a direct to DVD movie the films animation actually looks to be really good with it being made clear as day that the makers of this film did put alot of thought and effort into the animation of this films this is despite the fact that this film still does look cheap as there are only a handful of main sets and only a handful of characters used in the film and while the film does hide it's cheapness really well it is something that you can't help but notice alot of the time and yet at the same time tho this films animation does look a lot more better then alot of the animated films that came out from around that same time period while granted this film doesn't look as good a PIXAR or a Disney film it does look alot more better then the animated films that Dreamworks were putting out from around this time period as this film isn't afraid to have these more zany moments in it's animation and yet also i've the characters these really nice fluid movements to them which was something that they really didn't have to do and yet the fact that they did do it does show that the makers of this film wanted to give this film some really high quality animation and while the films backgrounds look pretty generic they do still have alot of detail in them with the fact that this was also a treaitional 2D hand drawn animated film also being something to praise whenever it's seen as you just don't get to see these types of animated films anymore.

As was stated at the start of this review this film could very well take in the world of House Of 1000 Corpses and it's two sequels. AS not only does Captain Spaulding , Baby and Otis all make appearances in this film with even both Otis and Captain Spaulding getting lines of dialog in the film but so does the character of Dr. Satan a character that was first mentioned in House Of 1000 Corpses which does make it seem like that this film is firmly connected to that film but in saying that tho given the fact that this films has a lot of cameos from other horror characters it could just be that Rob Zombie was merely including the Firefly Family because he had the rights to them as for Dr. Satan being a character in both this film and House Of 1000 Corpses it very well could be a very different take on the character but it is kind of fun to think that these two films that do seem to be disconnected films could be set in the same world as it's just two much of a coincidence that three technically four characters from one film would then show up in another film by the same director but what was odd was that even tho the actor for Baby is in this film they don't have Sheri Moon Zombie reprise her role with the character instead being left silent all throughout the film which just seems weird as half the fun with those three characters is seeing them interact with each other and it would have been fun to see Baby talk with either Susie-X or Velvet just because you could have the Baby character have talks with anyone and nine times out of ten you'd get gold from it or heck even having the three of them having a chat with this films take on Dr. Satan would have been a pretty funny thing to see and would have been a much more better use of the characters then what we ultimately got with them in the finished cut of the film.

Whilst this film isn't a musical film by any means it does have songs by the comedy band Hard 'n Phirm. With alot of the films songs being pretty bad to be frank as all they are are songs that are just commenting on what's being shown to us on screen which does have the adverse effect of making all of this films songs sound very similar to one another that's not to say that there not all sung really well as they are it's just that there's not much a verity in the types of songs that we get in this film and with there not even being a tracklist for this film out here that does make it hard to name all of the films songs as well with perhaps the films best song being the one that plays when Susie-X and Murray and being chased by Naz* Zombies and the song takes on this kind of Scooby-Doo chase song vibe where instead of it just being a generic pop song that plays over the scene it's instead just commenting on however the top the action in the scene which is perfect for that type of the scene but then you get to the scene with the Zombies looking at Susie-X and Murray from over a wall and the same type of song plays again and that's when you realise that that's all this films songs are with there being nothing new added to them even during the intro song for Susie-X could have been alot more better as the visuals hint at it being kind of a James Bond spoof and yet the song doesn't match those visuals at all where as if the makers of the film went all in on spoofing James Bond for that scene including having a James Bond-esqe title song then it would have made that scene all the more better then what it already is and it would have given us some verity in the types of songs that we get in this film.

Whereas other adult animated films like both Mad God and The Spine Of Night of alot more mature in there themes and characters. This film feels like that it was never going to be that kind of adult animated film as it's one just has alot of blood and other mature aspects to it and that's really it and while that's fine for the comic book that this film is based off of as there you have alot of other adult comic books also doing the exact same thing when the book was being adapted to the film then there should have been more of an effort to make this film have more mature themes as audiences to expect more from adult animated films then what they do an adult comic book but given that this was Rob Zombie's first and to date only comic book movie it could be forgiven that he would want to stick to the book as closely as possible as he did also write the original book but this is something that does excuse the fact that this films villain Dr. Satan doesn't really get alot of chances to show us the audience why we should be scared of him as he spends alot of the time in telling bad jokes that oddly make the film feel more childish then it does adult with this having the adverse affect of making the character seem both less scary and less threatening as well as we're not given alot of time with him being threatening and heck we don't even get to see him interact with both Superbeasto and Susie-X before the films third act when it would have made him more of a creepy villain if we got to see him terrorize the duo before the films third act as that then would make us the audience feel more scared for those characters because of the fact that we've had the chance to see him be threatening.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and seventeen minuets and thirty two seconds. Which to be fait to this film is pretty much the exact grand total running time that you'd expect a film like this one to have with the film even having the right amount of plot there to cover that amount of running time as this is a film that doesn't really require a long running time in order to tell it's plot as the film is short on plot to begin with but at the same time tho this film really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely either as the film doesn't really take the time that it really does need to fully develop it's plot as it's plot does feel like that it's very all over the place with the films plot being so underdeveloped that it does at times make it hard to tell just what the main plot of the film is even meant to be with even the films characters not being that well developed as none of this films characters have anything about them personality wise that make them not only likeable but also feel separate from one another as any of this films characters could be swapped around and nothing would be changed plot wise as that's how little that the films characters are developed with even the familial bond between Susie-X and Superbeasto not even being developed either this is despite the fact that it forms a vital part of who those characters are as people and yet it feels like that was tacked on at the last minuet when it's something that should have gotten alot more development and attention then what it ultimately ended up getting in the first place but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 

So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. With the films comedy being alot more better then what you'd expect from a film by Rob Zombie and yet at the same time tho the films comedy can be seen as being quite childish despite the fact that it's an adult film as alot of this films jokes are just badly done adult jokes that would feel more at home in a bad episode of South Park then they would in a feature length film but with that being said tho when this film does decide to tell a good joke it really can be a solid joke lie for the example the best joke in the film which is when Superbeasto is trying to find Velvet he goes to a Mexican neighborhood to reconnect with some old friends only since he hasn't seen them in a while they no longer trust him and so in order to proof that he is still one of them all he has to do is win a game of Twister and that's it which is such a simple premise for a joke and yet it's one that oddly works in this films favor as the film i just about dumb enough to make the joke the work with these kinds of jokes being where the film shines best as it allows the characters to be there dumb selves with that being more then enough to make those kinds of jokes work but where this film does fall flat from a comedy point of view is when it forces cameos from other horror characters down your throat as all that does is remind you that could be watching a much more better film but when this film tells a good joke it is something that really does work in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall while this isn't the worst film that Rob Zombie has ever made as that honor very easily goes to The Munsters it's also not his best work either as it's a film that's at best OK which for a Rob Zombie film does make this film out to be a masterpiece but it is something that really makes you wonder why he didn't make more animated films as he really clearly knows what he's doing when it comes to making animated films in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then  i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the im ages that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all pf the i ages that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . UK , Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama 2 Film Review

Horror sequels are a dime a dozen with dozens of them being made each and every year with the same thing even being true for this film. With this film even being the latest long line on legacy sequels with the film even bringing back a few of the original films stars with one of them even being this films director and so then join me as I review the film that takes us to another Bowl-O-Rama with the film in question being called simply just "Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama 2" enjoy.

The plot of this film three some girls and guys are tasked with stealing anything from a random bowling alley with them accidentally unleashing The Imp and now they have to find a way to defeat him once and for all. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad however tho this films plot wasn't all that good as all it was was just a complete and total carbon copy of the first films plot which even then wasn't that good of a plot in the first place which makes you wonder why the makers of this film just chose to straight up copy that films plot beat for beat when surely they could have come up with something that's alot more creative then what we ended up getting as if you've seen the first film then you've good as well seen this film as well as that's just how similar the two plots are with this films plot not even being that strong of a plot in the first place as the plot of this film does keep on disappearing alot of the time so much so that it really does make it harder to tell just what the main plot of the film was even meant to be in the first place and while the makers of this film do get some credit for at least trying to do a sequel to Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama the fact is that all of the charm that that films plot had is gone in this film due to how predictable that this films plot really is in the first place with the plot of this film not even being really rather entertaining and nor is it really rather engaging either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Kelli Maroney as Auntie Snake , Michelle Bauer as Lisa and this film director and The Slumber Party Massacre star Brinke Stevens as Taffy. Also tarring in this film is Jessie Gill as Sarah , Audrey Neal as Ginger , Justin Lupo as Dinger , Glory Rodriguez as Bitsy , Nate Blair as Turkey , Katie O'Neill as Tiffany , Hannah Tullett as Devon , Luka Parente as Bart and Derek Jeremiah Reid as the voice of The Imp.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty just OK at best. As while the acting in the first film was really nothing to write home about either the first film had at least some actors in it who you knew could act where as in this film while yes we do have some actor returning from the previous film the film is instead mostly made up of actors who have no idea of what kind of a movie that there starring in and so they play everything straight which ironically makes there performances in this film all the more boring to watch as this is a film that really does require some really over the top acting in order to make the film work in the first place with this being something that the actors of the first movie understood really well and yet it's something that does seem to be lost on the actors in this film and while yes we do get some solid performances in this film with the best example being Kelli Maroney as Auntie Snake and Glory Rodriguez as Bitsy sadly tho alot of the acting in this film just isn't that good and while both Michelle Bauer and Brinke Stevens are good in this film they were better in the previous film with the films best actor being Glory Rodriguez as Bitsy as even tho her character is quite literally just the same as Spider from the first movie she does have alot of charm to her and her performance is solid enough to make it work in the first place with the acting that's in this film not really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of this film actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in he first place which is something that really does harm the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

While the first film could get away with having bad acting due to having some decent characters this film barely has that going for it. As while this films characters aren't bad persay it's just that there's really nothing to any of these characters which yes is also true for the characters in the original film as well but in that film they had at least some good actors to make you forget about the lack of good characters in the film where as here because of the fact that this film is more focused on reminding you about that first film it forgets to give you characters that aren't even so bad that there good as all of the films characters are just very one dimensional characters that are at best very wooden characters as they have nothing interms of a personality trait with all of the girls just being poor copies of the girls from the first film and all of the guys just being the stereotypical dumb one of the group and even Itsy who is by far the best character in the whole entire as it does feel like that there was some actual effort put into her character doesn't really get much time to fully develop her characters personality and as such she just comes of as being a poor man's Spider something which is not helped by both her name and the fact that it's more then hinted at in the film that Spider is her mother as for the guys none of them are that interesting as characters which again could also be argued is true for the guys in the first film but at least there there was the excuse of the fact that it was the directors second film and was writer Sergei Haseneczs only writing credit ever where as with this film writer Kent Roudebush is an experienced writer and therefor should have known to further develop the characters alot more to make them alot better then the characters in the first film.  

This film does follow the trend that did technically start with Halloween H20 by being a legacy sequel as the film does bring back both Taffy and Lisa from the first film. With the idea of this film being a legacy sequel of sorts doesn't really work all that well for this film just due to the fact that the first film not only wasn't that well known in the first place but also didn't spawn any other sequels and so there's not really much of a fanbase there for this film to begin with whereas with films even as recent as this years dreadful I Know What You Did Last Summer they at the very least had several sequels and enough of a fanbase to really warrant revisiting the original films characters in the first place where as here because of the fact that the first one was just a one and done movie there's really no need to bring back characters from the first movie as we really hadn't had the chance to see how the world of these films reacts to these events and the legends that could come from it that's not to say that making this film a legacy sequel is a bad idea because it's really not in fact it's oddly wise of them to do that as then they could bring back some horror heavyweights which would be sure to get fans of the genre interested in checking out this movie but at the same time to alot of people who love horror might not have watched the first movie in the first place as the film wasn't that big of hit at the box office and instead went to become the cult hit that it was destined to become and therefor it really didn't make sense to make this film a legacy sequel whereas it would have made alot more sense to go the standalone route with this film and have a completely new set of characters and not feature any of the original actors in the film at all.

Unlike the first film this film does put alot more emphasis on the fact that this is a comedy horror film by having alot more jokes then what the first film had. As in the first film what made it funny was how over the top everything eventually became where as here the film does have jokes in it and sadly not only all of the films jokes work as they alot of them just make the female characters look dumb and in one case is just so stupid but with that being said tho when the film does want to tell a good joke it can be pretty decent with it being revealed that Lisa and Taffy have been trapped with The Imp for almost thirty years and have been talking none stop for that amount of time something which was very slowly driving him crazy which was a goo idea as it is something that does feel true to their characters even tho we didn't get to see them talking all that much to each other in the first film however the one joke that is just stupid is the fact that they reveal that Spider's actual lawful first name is Spider with Auntie Snake also being called Snake which is just so stupid as they both sound more like nicknames then actual first names at least with Itsy her name does kind of go with having a spider like name so it does kind of come across as being funny but it a cute kind of way where as revealing someone's lawful name is Spider is just stupid and while yes they do explain it away by having Snake say that there parents where big into animals it doesn't make that joke reveal any less stupid as anyone called Spider or having any dumb lawful first name like that would change it to literally anything else due to the fact that they would have been getting bullied as a kid for having a dumb first name.

It's not all doom and gloom for this film tho as there some very small hints of a good or even perhaps watchable film to be found in this film. Like the fact that right from the title you know right away just what kind of a film that your in for and so you know not to go into this film with super high expectations and the fact that the both the make up effects and the animation on The Imp do look really good with it actually looking like that both the actors and The Imp were actually in the same scene in this film however tho this film is sadly filled with far two much bad things tho as the film is way more focused on recreating elements from the first film that it forgets just what it was that made those elements work so well in the first place with the film also being very of the time as the writing for the female characters is very much the kind of writing that you saw in the post covid and post Metoo era were it was all about making sure that you knew that the female characters were strong characters without actually giving us the audience a reason to like them in the first place and with this film kind of being a throw back to eighties cult hit films where the writing for the female characters was never that good in the first place it makes it odd that in this film they would do something like that when that's not something that works in any kind of film whatsoever as all it does is date your film right away and while the film does have some really good looking make up effects that doesn't make up for the fact that the makers of this film don't really give us the audience a reason to actually care about the characters and want to see them make it out of the film alive and well.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and two minuets and twenty five seconds. Which is pretty much the exact grand total running time for any Full Moon Features film these day but at the same time tho this is a film that really could have been at the very least ten or twenty minuets longer as while the film has the right amount of plot there to cover it's current running time it also can't use it's running time all that wisely as the plot of the film isn't that well developed and can't be that well developed due to the fact that it has to rush along to it's next plot point whereas if the film did have a slightly longer running time then it would allot for the film to take the time that it really did need in order to further develop it's plot with the fact that this film has a short running im even effecting it's characters as the film can't develop it's characters either whereas if the film was longer then it would allow for the characters to get some actual character develop since as things stand none of that can happen as the film has to rush along to it's next plot point and that does come at the expense of having a well developed plot and well developed characters when it would have made more sense for the makers of this film to put just as much effort into developing the plot of the film and the films characters then into giving us jokes that just aren't funny as if the film did have a well developed plot and well developed characters then they could get some positive word of mouth from people which would then result in more people buying the film in the first place but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a horror film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally tought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really bad. As there really aren't that many creative kills in this film this is despite the fact that the premise of the film really does allow for some really creative kills to happen and yet outside of one kill where a guys gets turned into a giant wrapper and then eaten by The Imp but that's really it as the rest of the films kills are either just repeats of kills from the previous film or are just badly done kills with the only decent kill and therefor the films best kill being the one where a guy gets turned into a giant wrapper and then eaten by The Imp as while yes it's a cheesy effect to see in the film it's also a kill that does show that the makers of this film know that they have permission to do these really creative kills and yet for some odd reason it's only in this one kill where they get the chance to be creative with a character getting killed by being hit over the head with a bowling pin and another character getting killed by the man of her dreams both of which are just really uninspired kills and while this might be due to the fact that the film might not have had a big budget in the first place which if that was the case then it is understandable why the film doesn't have that many actually good kills in the first place but it still would have been nice if the film did have alot more really creative kills in it in the first place in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Overall it really doesn't need saying but yeah this film really is a bad film as it fails to recapture the spirit and tone of the original this is despite the fact that this film does have two of the stars from the original film in this one with this film not even being a film that's so bad that it's good as it's just a really bad film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least, Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this film really does earn itself a gran old score of exactly a 3 out of 10 from me.

Now ten as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

The Toxic Avenger 2025 Film SPOILER FILLED Film Review

These days it seems like the only way to truly get the movie that you want made out is to release it unrated. Which  is a huge gamble on any studio to make and yet not only have we had two unrated films come out in the past few years one of them was even a massive hit movie and well the other one has just been released and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the film that really does need to be seen to be believed with the film in question being called simply just "The Toxic Avenger" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when an employee gets dropped into some toxic waste he becomes heavily mutated and sets out to get revenge on those that wronged him included his evil and corrupt boss. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with this films plot being so much more better then what it really had any right to be as by all rights this films plot should have been really bad but because of the fact that the film has this kind of over the top and campy tone to it that does make it feel alot more like a dark gritty cartoon then the actual cartoon show that the first film spawned it does kind of get away with it as this is a plot that's not to be taken seriously and is meant to be a whole lot of fun and that's exactly what it ends up being with the plot of this film being a throwback to films like Class Of Nuke 'Em High where they don't really take themselves that seriously but yet at the same time you do kind of by into them with this being a case where being released unrated does help the plot of the film as while the films plot wouldn't be that much effected if this film was rated the fact that it's not however does mean that the plot can go to those more weird and wacky places that it might not have been ale to go to if this film did have a rating with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty shockingly good. With all of this films actors turning in some surprisingly good performances in this film which is something that both is and yet also isn't shocking it isn't shocking in the way that alot of this films actors are a bunch of really good actors in their own right but at the same time tho this is also a film that you really don't expect good acting from in the first place as it's premise is so ludacris that you'd be forgiven for thinking that this film had some really bad acting in it and yet all we got in this film was some really good acting with it being clear as day that all of this films actors understood just what kind of a film that they were in and what kind of tone that the film had and therefor just really hammed up all of their performances and while it would have been very easy to say that Peter Dinklage is the films best actor the fact is he's not as that honor goes to so someone who had exactly no lines of dialog in the film that being Luisa Guerreiro who physically played The Toxic Avenger as all Peter Dinklage did when his character got mutated was voice him with Luisa adding so much character and personality to the character all of which was done without uttering a single word of dialog and given that she had to wear all that make up that is something that would have been a hard task to achieve at the best of times with the acting that's in this very film really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out pf them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Doing the CGI for this film is Fangs FX , Fourth Seal Studios , Millennium FX , Mr. X. , Tippett Studio and Worldwide FX. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with this being quite shocking as you don't usually think that films that have a small budget like this one has would have good looking CGI to it and yet that's exactly what this film does have as while yes granted this film does mostly use practical effects they also mix to with CGI which is something that does make it harder to tell what was real and what was done in a computer and while the film does have some really obvious back replacements alot of the time it could also be argued that that does add to the overall charm of the film as it does give this film a look that makes it look like the cheap direct to VHS horror films of the eighties but with that being said tho this isn't the eighties and therefor there should have been more time devoted to making sure that the films effects look as good as they possibly could have done and while this might not have been possible as it's not been revealed just what the films budget is in the first place given the fact that it's a remake of a cult horror film with the same production company behind the original film it's not hard to assume that this film had a small budget to begin with and therefor had a small effects budget and with that in mind the makers of the film did do the best with what little effects budget that they might have had to begin with.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to give you all an idea of how big of a deal that this film could be it was filmed and fully completed all the way back in 2023. With it only just seeing the day of light this year because of the fact that big Hollywood studios deemed the film to be "unreleasable" this is despite the fact that Terrifier 3 another unrated film with lots of gore and violence came out a year prior and proved that films with lots of gore and violence can be hit films so it's odd that they passed on this film which by the way is tamer then Terrifier 3 is all due to concerns about the violence shown in the film which does go to show you that Hollywood right now is scared of taking chances on these smaller films when Hollywood itself was built on taking chances and was built on leading the pack when it comes to the entertainment industry but somewhere down the line they lost there courage and stopped taking chances on unrated films because they very easily could have released this film unrated and it still would have worked why because of the fact that this is still a good film and that's not due to it's violent nature altho that is a big part of it but it's also due to the fact that it has likable characters and that it has a really strong plot it got all of the basics down so it would have made any studio that chose to release this film some small amount of money but because of the fact that they got scared of releasing an unrated film it now means that Cineverse the company that actually had the courage to pick the film up is now going to make all of the money that they could have been making and with this film already making $2.2 million American dollars at the box office this should hopefully prove to big studios that there is money to be made in releasing these unrated films on the big screen.

With this film being a horror action comedy that does mean that it does have to split it focus three ways and focus on each one of those elements equally. This is something that this film does fail to do sadly as while the action and the comedy aspects are really good the film is lacking in anything that's even close to horror as the only thing that's even remotely close to being scary in this film is the look of The Toxic Avenger himself and that's really it as there's not even kind of jump scare in this film altho in saying that it could also be argued that what makes the film is the amount of gore that's on show which would be a fair enough argument to make but at the same time tho for a film that's billed as being a horror film as well as an action film and a comedy film you do want some genuinely good scares in there for good measure as that would mean that the people that love horror films will be happy but in saying that tho the film does have alot of painfully funny moments in it be it from the title cards that pop up on screen for all of the different locations to even alot of the characters names all of which feel right at home in cult type of film bottom line there's going to be something funny in this film for every one with there being one or two good jokes every few minuets and the few that don't land don't matter because of the fact that the film throws so many jokes at you anyway that it's already telling one or two good jokes the second that that bad one has been told with it being clear as day that this films writer and director Macon Blair really does know how to tell a good joke as alot of the films jokes are just that painfully funny in the final cut of the film.

Sadly tho it's not all good news for this film as this film does have a few bad things about it like for example the stepfather and son able between Winston an Wade which is not only very badly done in the first place as the film makes a big deal about Wade calling Winston dad near the end of the film when he also does it earlier on in the film as well with that part of the film feeling not only rushed but also unneeded as well. With the film even having a weak villain in Bob Garbinger as we get to find out next to nothing about this character other then the fact that he's cruel to his brother and that's really it as we don't even know why he is the way that he is in the first place which just makes him come across as being evil for the sake of being evil as really you could have had literally any other character about from Toxie play Bob's role in the movie and nothing would change as that's how little that we the audience get to find out about him as a character when it would have helped the film out quite alot if we did get some background information on him and while there is chance that we might be getting that in the graphic novel version of the of the film it is still something that should have been in this film as that would have made it easier for us the audience to decide on if we like or if we hate him as a character and while yes we do get to find out what his end goal is which is basically to use Toxies mutation as a way to make money by selling to the people of the greatly names St. Roma's Village that's not enough to make him a memorable character in his ow right rather all it does is make you wish that there was more effort put into him as a character.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty minuets and twenty four seconds. While this might be seen as being a bad thing for alot of superhero type films given just how much alot of them would have to set up first and still tell a good story given that this film really isn't a superhero film it dos kind of work with that more shorter running time with the film even having the right amount of plot there to really cover that amount of running time with this film even using it's running time wisely in one respect with that being the fact that the plot of the film is really well developed as alot of the films plot is really well developed with things being set up all throughout the film in the background which then turn out to play a slightly bigger role in the films climax with the best example of this being a concert that gets mentioned in one scene near the start of the film but then it turns out that the band that are playing the show are also these guards that are hired by Bob's brother to take out Toxie and J.J. with Toxie taking them out during the concert sadly tho this isn't something that extends to the films characters as they aren't that well developed at all with characters like J.J. Bob , Fritz , Wade and Kissy not really being given much time to get across just what it is that there personalities are meant to be in the first place which is something that does make them come across as being really forgettable characters which is something that does make sense as the film does mostly focus on Winston but at the same time tho there should have been some effort to make the side characters just as memorable as what the main character of the film is but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is ana action film that really does mean that I have to actually talking about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With this films action being where we get to see alot of the over the top gore that scared alot of the big Hollywood studios of releasing this film in the first place and while the gore that does help to make the actin all the more crazy and entertaining then what it already is this films action is also really creative with this being due to the fact that the hero of the film is not only a small person but also uses a mop as his main weapon which is something that does keep all of the films actions scenes from getting dull and boring as you never really know just what it is that the film is going to do next with the best action scene in the whole entire film being he films third act as while the gore isn't as over the top in that sequence it is still a really over the top sequence in it's own right as Winston and a now fully mutated Bob duke it out all over Bob's estate with it going on for so long that it does become comical as both characters survive things that really should have killed them which could be seen as being over kill but at the same time tho it is also something that does feel true to the films more cartoonish nature and tone something which is also true for the rest of the films action as well as this films action is filled to the brim with over the top things in all of them as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall out of this film an the new Red Sonja film which got released on the exact same day as this film did this film is quite easily the better of the two films as this film is nothing more then pure fun to watch with this film hopefully proving to big hollywood studios that people actually want to see unrated film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama Film Review

Horror films come in all shapes and sizes with alot of them being big screen releases that become mainstream. However the film that i'm going to be talking to you all about today is the exact opposite as this is a film that really is pretty much a direct to VHS movie and really is the very definition of a cult film and so then join me as in review the film that ring three iconic horror actors together in one film with the film in question being called simply just "Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when a group of teen break into a bowling ally to try and steal a trophy they find themselves in for the fight for their lives they accidentally unleash and evil imp from one of the trophies. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad which is something that's to be expected as this film was made on a really small budget and is basically a direct to VHS movie and those typically don't have good plots to them with this films plot being as good as it was ever going to be given the fact that the script was written in just ten days and only had one draft written which is something that might explain why this films plot is a bit all over the place and isn't that well focused as the plot of the film does disappear for large portions of the film which does make it hard to tell just what the plot of the film is meant to be alot of the time with this not really being helped by the fact that this plot isn't that strong of a plot both of which are things that could have been fixed if there were more rewrites to the script as that would then allow for the plot of the film to be alot more focused and for it to be alot more stronger of a plot but on the flip side of that is this films plot is wonderfully cheesy and campy and over the top which is something that does add to the overall cult like nature of the film with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is horror legend Linnea Quigley as Spider , Andras Jones as Calvin and Robin Rochelle as Barbara "Babs" Peterson. Also starring in this film is Carla Baron as Frankie , Kathi O'Brecht as Rhonda , John Stuart Wildman as Keith , Hal Havins as Jimmie , Brinke Stevens as Taffy , Michelle Bauer as Lisa , Dukey Flyswatter as the voice of Uncle Impie and George "Buck" Flower as The Janitor.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. With this films acting being as good as it was ever going to be as nobody would have expected this film to have good or even great acting in it due to it's title alone but that's exactly what we get in this film with this films actors turning in the best possible performance that they could have done given the plot of the film and he fact that this film was filmed in a whopping twelve days which means that there's pretty much to time to do a take two and that is something that does really show through in the film as alot of the acting in this film does feel like the kind of acting that you'd see in the first take of any movie and while this films actors do the best job that they could have done with the material that was handed to them this films acting would have been greatly improved if they were given the time to do a take two as then the actors would be able to turn in some more better performances with the best actor in this film being Linnea Quigley as while all of the films actors know full well that there in a bad film she seems to be one of the few actors in the film that are actually trying to turn in a better then OK performance whilst also quite clearly having the time of her life being in this film with the acing that's in this film not really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of this films actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does effect the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

This film does fair a little bit better when it comes to there characters as the films characters are somewhat memorable but not for the right reasons tho. As while the characters are decently well done there still one dimensional characters only now it's pushed to the extreme which does make these characters laughable like take for example Spider all we really know about her as a character is that she's the films touch girl character and that's it and it's something that the film takes great pride in showing us every single time that she's on screen to the point where that becomes her sole personality and it's the same thing for all of the films characters where they all get one personality trait which the film then pushes so far to the extreme that it makes these characters feel more like cartoon characters due to the fact that we get to find out literally nothing else about of this films characters which to be does make these characters somewhat memorable but it's not in the way that you'd want them to be as while yes granted you do find yourselves routing for the characters that your supposed to like and hating the characters that your supposed to hate you do also find yourself laughing at the characters alot more then you cheering for them which is something that does add to this films more cult like nature and it is something that does make what could have been seen as being a really bad film now come across as being a film that's still bad but it's also pretty enjoyable due to how bad that pretty much everything in the film as there is clear effort gone into making this film and it is something that does shine through in the final cut of the film but at the same time tho none of that effort went into making this films characters memorable in the way that you'd want them to be memorable.

As was mentioned at the very start of this review this film did become a cult hit and it's not that hard to see why. As everything about this film from the choice of it's main actors to even it's title does scream cult film and to this films credit it does fully know that it's not going to be a hit film and therefor does have alot more fun with itself because of it with even the characters as one dimensional as they are in the film are still some pretty characters that have some pretty fun and more often then not funny scenes and while you can quite tell that the actors in this film are never in the same shot as The Imp despite them being in the exact same scene it is something that whilst it does make the film look cheap it does also add to the overall cult like nature of the film with this film even being such a cult hit that it spawned a knock off film in 1991 called Sorority Babes In The Dance-A-Thon of Death and just a few shorts years ago spawned a sequel called Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama 2 which is something that the film might not have been able to do if it was the more traditional hit film but due to the fact that this film is nothing more then a campy film with a title that does make it clear as day that this was never going to be a hit film the film was able to find it's own audience with it being that audience that helped to make it the cult film that it is today with this being something that does go to show you that you don't need to be a good film to be remembered as sometimes all you need is a stupid title and a stupid plot and that's something that this film does have with the title of the film even making it standout among all of the other direct to VHS horror movies out there just due to how eye catching that the title alone really is.

Out of this film and Nightmare Sisters it's fair to say that whilst Nightmare Sisters was the better overall film this one was the one that was most fun film to watch. As you can tell right from the very start of this movie that this films writer and director David DeCoteau knew that he was making a film that was going to be fun and therefor he just went nuts with the film with him making a film that whilst it's not as good as Nightmare Sisters is this one is still that's fun to watch due to the fact that it does look like that everybody else is on the joke with that being something that does make the film all the more  fun to watch with everyone who was making this film quite clearly having a blast with it so much so that all three leading ladies returned for the sequel with really the only thing that's really letting this film down being the fact that it doesn't take fully advantage of it's bowling alley setting as we barely get to see much of the bowling alley itself and when we do get to see it it's usually just the stuff that you'd usually see and nothing behind the scenes which makes having a horror film be set mostly in a bowling alley all the more pointless as that does limit the kind of creative kills that you could do with these characters given it's unique setup and villain but at the same time tho given that they could only afford to film at the bowling alley at night and that's really it that might have been the reason as to why we only really saw the bowling lanes and not much else as the rest of it might have been locked up but it is something that does make you wonder what the makers of this film would have done if they did get back to wear the pins are loaded for example or if they did go behind the scenes of the bowling alley instead of them going behind the scenes of the mall that the bowling alley is housed in which is still a great idea but at the same time you do still want to see more of the titular bowl-o-rama and not the building that's being housed in.

Given the title of this film this film is of a course a horror comedy with the makers of this film actually putting just as much effort into the horror aspect of the film then they did the comedy aspect of the film. It's just a shame then that the films comedy isn't that good with the film having jokes that you can see coming a mile away with the only somewhat decent joke being the slight running gag that the film has early on where these three girls just keep on knocking this poor Janitor into the same room all without each of them seeing the other which is a good little running joke and was one that could have carried on all throughout the film however tho the film for no apparent reason drops that joke in favor of the Janitor being kind of a death person who just winds up annoying Spider alot of the time as he comes to the same conclusion that she's been trying to tell him for a good while which don't get me wrong is a decent joke but it's not as good as the previous running joke with the same character was as at least with that joke you could pass it from character to character and it would still feel fresh and different but here because of the fact that the makers of this film stuck him with the only capable character in the film there kind of running joke is one that does start to get old realm fast even more so when you realise that the running joke with Spider and the Janitor gets in the way of Spider's pudding relationship with Calvin and it's like that with alot of the films jokes with the films jokes at best being OK to average jokes but nothing special and at worst being just downright unfunny but to this films credit they did know to keep it fairly balanced and didn't really lean to far into either aspect which given this films title is something that they very easily could have done.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and nineteen minuets and forty two seconds. Which to be fair to this film is pretty much the exact grand total running time that you'd expect a film like this one to have with the film even having the right amount of plot there to really cover that amount of running time and while yes this film really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely by not developing ether it's plot or it's characters this is the kind of the film that really doesn't need either of those things for it to work in the first place as this film is nothing more that a trashy horror comedy that knows exactly what it is and that's a bad movie which to be fair is sometimes just all you want from a movie as while yes it would have helped this film out quite alot if it did have a more developed plot as that would make the plot of the film all the more interesting then what it already is and if the films characters were more developed as that would not only make them more interesting as characters but it would also give us the audience more of a reason to route for these characters outside of the basic one of them is the good guy and the other's the bad guy this is the type of the film that really doesn't require any of that and to this films credit it does work on it's own merit as while yes granted this film is a trashy horror comedy it's also a fun and campy movie that knows exactly what it is and really isn't afraid of being the kind of bad movie that it already knows that it is which is something that dies make this film all the more to watch because of it but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now the as this is a horror film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. However tho this is a bad thing as the films kills just aren't that good either with alot of them being rather plain and boring to watch with none of them really taking as full advantage of the films supernatural aspect as they really could have done which is something that could come down to one of two things the first one being the fact that The Imp is stop motion animated and therefor really can't do all that much in the first place and the second might just be the fact that this film most likely had a really small budget in the first place and therefor the films kills can't be as good as they perhaps would have been should the film have had a much more larger budget in the first place either way it is something that does prevent all of this films kills from being good or memorable with the film not even having a single good kill in it as while alot of the films are indeed creative and fun to watch in the film as there all lacking that extra special something that makes them good in the first place with the only thing that would have made any of this films kills better was if the film actually took full advantage of it's supernatural aspect by having The Imp himself actually be the one to kill people and not have him control two or three girls and have them kill them for him which while it's a solid idea it is one that does hold the films kills back from being as good as they really could have been in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall it really hard to fully judge this film s while yes it is a really bad film no one will ever deny that but it's also a film that's so bad that it's good with the things that make it bad also being the things that make it fun to watch in the first place with this film being a really campy film that knows that's bad film and really isn't afraid to be exactly that which does also help to make the film fun to watch as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in tis very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.
