Gutterballs Decide Now

About five minutes into this rape-vengeance-slasher you'll know whether this movie's for you.
If you last more than fifteen you'll actually be surprised at how much gore, camp, sleaze,
sex, rape, creative deaths, & undesirable characters can fit onto one disc.
I (an admitted gorehound) thought it was totally sick, way over the top, & campy in every way, shape, and form.
The very definition of shock-schlock.
I had to walk out of the room during the bowling pin penetration scene, while my wife stayed & watched with disgust.
(yes, you read that correctly)
It's definitely a throwback to bad 80s theme-slashers the likes of William Lustig flicks,
(whose movie, Maniac, they spoofed on the back cover)
with a hint of Joe D'Amato.
But it was also pornographic at times, not erotic either - sleazy,
Like Divine from Pink Flamingos sleazy.
If I found out that this was released by Troma (it wasn't ) I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.
I will say the sound was waaaay the heck off,
like they had one microphone, and everyone was trying to shout into it at once.
(I understand the reason behind it, but it's a throwback that should stay buried in the past)
The characters were so annoying you couldn't wait for them to die.
I wanted to bash that one guys face in myself,
he kept smiling that real irritating smile, like a mentally-deranged squirrel.
The fun part is every character is so undesirable, that when they die.. you cheer.
And rightfully so as gore is the real star here.
You can see they were trying to be creative with the deaths,
while still maintaining a certain level of shock.
As such every death is bowling/sex themed.
But as this was a rape/vengeance tale in a bowling alley you can understand why every death was bowling/sex themed.
The bowling shoe scene being the most retarded,
and the ball waxer scene being the best!!!!
This was actually a step back from the overly gory Live Feed, Nicholson's previous effort, which felt more professional, and restrained.
But it was a step back I found myself enjoying a bit more.
