About
You may like this if you can handle nasty, low-budget cult horror with bleak tension, bursts of dark humor, and exploitation roots in the vein of The Gore Gore Girls; Not for you if sexual violence or mean-spirited brutality is a hard no.
Pros: tense, grim atmosphere; memorable villains; darkly funny moments | Cons: upsetting assault content; uneven acting; cheap, trashy feel
