Your Worst Nightmare: Cannibal Strippers
A birthday outing with two brothers and a friend turns into a horrific fight for survival after they become trapped in a house with a "family" of malevolent women. Apparently this film was birthed by a single two-word phrase: "cannibal strippers". How do you take that combination and turn it into a feature-length film? If you happen to be talented (such as these filmmakers are), it apparently comes naturally. Add in some vibrant colors, reminiscent of "Amelie", and you have beautiful cinematography. The film's press kit says the aesthetic as inspired by the films of Douglas Sirk, though it is not obvious. We are also told it is a bit gender-bending and post-feminist, but this, too, seems questionable. Indeed, the victims here are men rather than women, but horror has had a long history of strong women and this is not outside of what we have come to expect. (This is not a criticism of the film, but rather just a question of how accurate the press kit is. Other viewers may see the gender politics differently.) Early on we have none-too-serious acting, which fits the light-hearted nature of the first few scenes. But the movie has its dark and disturbing moments, too, that will make the viewer squirm. Some great tension, and plenty of gore. We see a wide range from the character of Kyle, who is like a man-child in the body of Tor Johnson. Is he dim-witted, a victim, naive, or something more menacing? His character is quite complex, and perhaps the most interesting. Horror fans might see the film as Robert Rodriguez's "From Dusk Til Dawn" with just a dash of "Texas Chain Saw Massacre". But unlike the Sawyer family, this family is a bit more nonchalant about their appetites. Which completely changes the way we look at them: are they monsters if they are just acting "normal"? Or is that even more disturbing, because unlike Leatherface, they can blend in anywhere? This is not a perfect film, but we should not expect it to be. What it is, however, is a great exposition of a simple concept ("cannibal strippers"). The acting is better than average, and the direction and camera-work are top-notch. These are people to follow. And there is enough originality here to please even the jaded horror fan. A welcome addition to the cannibal subgenre!
This is home
Three guys decide to get their way with a stripper. Things go bad and they get invited to dinner. This is a variation of the normal looking family cannibal theme. "Parents," "Blood Diner," "Hansel & Gretel,""Motel Hell," "Eating Raoul," "Flesh Eating Mothers," "Microwave Massacre," "Fresh Meat" "Delta Delta Die, " and "Cannibal Hookers" were superior films in the normal looking cannibal genre. The acting was okay considering the theme. The characters were not that great. The plot moved remarkably slow. Four strippers and no real nudity outside of butts and side breast. That amounts to false advertising. Even in the strip club they had their clothes on. Guide: F-word. Sex. Nudity?
A missed opportunity
The Plot. THE LADIES OF THE HOUSE follows the events surrounding a birthday outing with two brothers and a friend which turns into a horrific fight for survival after they become trapped in a house with a "family" of malevolent women who enjoy a pin-up lifestyle and a special diet. Firstly,there were only two reviews when I wrote THIS review. One of them gives the movie 10 stars AND it's the dude's ONLY review which clearly mean he worked on the film. So right away, I thought this was going to suck. It is very cheaply made and sort of reminds me of some of those horror films like Frankenhooker -- not plot wise, but the way it looks and the way it's directed. Although some of the direction is disjointed.And the pacing is often slow. A bunch of gore and no nudity! What???? The storyline is really dumb. And soon the movie becomes tedious. Nothing allows you to suspend disbelief. THis movie could have been so much better in the hands of a different director and writer. It could have been really cool and a cult classic. Unfortunately It turns out to be a dud

If you are interested in seeing a horror.thriller type movie I highly recommend TLotH. The characters of this adventure are what really make the film. ON top of that top notch writing by Justine Walford and the director skills of John Wildman, Make this an enjoyable film that will leave you scratching your head and saying, Did I just see that?? The detail is noted right down to the color themes selected throughout the film. All the actors and actresses took to really making us believe in their characters and as you watch you find your self routing for the woman. Farah White as the motherly Lin, Shows compassion but when needed is tough as nails. Melodie Sisk as Getty, The real deal, Gets her hands bloody dirty, kicks ass and takes no bull s@#%t. Brina Palencia as Crystal, Love struck,young oh and crazy. The woman rule this movie from start to finish. All the males were fantastic but without a doubt for this one it definitely is fem-power.
Great grindhouse fun!
Disclosure: I realized AFTER I watched the movie that I am acquainted with one of its writers via mutual friends on social media. But since it was afterward it didn't affect my viewing of it. I had immediately said it was great and recommended it to others prior to realizing. I loved it, and I'd place it somewhat in the same vein as great feminist horror movies I've enjoyed like Teeth or Ginger Snaps. This isn't that silly Tumblr style of modern feminism mind you, but a genuine and smart exploration of gender roles and, in some respects, a powerful female revenge fantasy (although truthfully none of the characters come off like great people, which is part of the dark appeal). But since it's grindhouse style of course, the main idea is gruesome sexy fun, you won't be beaten over the head with any ham-handed social commentary. Great acting, special effects, drama, humor, and eroticism. I say it's funny, but it isn't overt comedy; it's more funny in the way the NBC Hannibal series is funny. Very dark and sharp humor, if you're sick like me you'll probably laugh. Watch it on Hulu if you're into this genre, you won't have a bad time!
