Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Shown on local TV recently, this film attracted my interest because of its classical title, (totally belied by the contents). Sadly I found it a very ugly film that I would not recommend to anyone except perhaps those who enjoyed the live dismemberment sequences in such turgid melodramas as "Bordello of Blood". In retrospect, I regret that I did not turn it off promptly, but it was saved by a sort of perverted style and logic. For example the chief villain was a paraplegic named (Cock)roach,. which somehow got reduced to Roach - this unfortunate loss seems to have started the long sad story. It stars Shannon Tweed who is not noted for sophisticated performances. Films in which I have previously seen her have been straightforward action thrillers, often with added eye candy in the form of the lightly clad and highly gymnastic unarmed combat sequences in which she excels. Some of these movies had even incorporated "naked into their titles - the last that I saw was Naked Lies, a fairly straightforward and business like thriller no better and no worse than many others featured on late night television. It is now too late, but consideration could have been given to re-making this as Naked Electra, to enable some of its more gross sequences (such as one character cutting out the heart of another and passing it on to a third as a snack) to be exorcised and replaced by a few more sequences where Shannon could have displayed her undoubted combat ability, and also perhaps some of the sundry other assets she often featured when she was Queen of the Playboy empire. Done well enough, this might even have justified increasing the rating I have given it from an undeserved one star to as high as perhaps three stars.After the North American film industry abandoned the Hayes code, it retained for many years a series of unofficial voluntary taboos on displaying material regarded as still being extremely controversial, or socially unacceptable. These taboos have gradually faded away but I believe they could still serve a useful function in protecting the industry from rising public wrath when they find they have paid good money for what is quite simply disgusting material - such as the sequence referred to above. Had I unsuspectingly bought this film as a DVD I would have been furious. Cannibalism is an acceptable component of some serious movies as well as others which are simply satirical; but films which present it as pure humour are simply gross and should never have been released. I know some will wish to raise an outcry about this statement, but I believe most IMDb users would agree with me. In the old days we would have demanded our money back from the cinema manager, today major studios should be expected to give all DVD purchasers the right to a refund if any such contents are not clearly and adequately indicated up front.

Before you read any further, know that this movie is more enjoyable the LESS you know about it and even a review revealing anything about the movie or it's style can ruin it for you. I have no spoilers plotwise, but the whole feel of the movie and how it changes is part of it's charm and knowing that ahead of time can ruin it for you.This movie left me stunned. I have no idea if it's a good stunned or a bad one. It started off like a decent C movie with potential. The acting wasn't great, although most pulled their weight fine (except for Katie Griffin whom I can't decide if it was her or the director). It quickly devolved into an over the top crazy movie. Not campy or B-movie fun. Just wacky. I know, it makes no sense. It certainly was worth seeing, but you won't see it displayed proudly on many shelves.It feels like a much older movie than it was.The biggest thing about it was that it seemed like a porn tribute to horror movies turned thriller. Like the old classic horror movies where the action happens off scene, so does all of the porn. That may sound weird. How can it be porn if I can't see it.... Watch the movie and you'll see! It has a few sexy women besides Shannon Tweed. Unfortunately not Shannon's incredible sister, but some steamy hotness all their own. The early action is good, but the finale has some absolutely crazy stuff. Remember, not campy, but wacky. I don't think this movie was made to be serious, but where they failed was by not making it into a truly campy classic. It had some potential though and could be remade into a B-movie masterpiece. It advertises a sequel at the end and I would not hesitate to pick it up too.Expect this - you'll warm up to the plot and characters quick and as it builds to the tense finale - it becomes wacky. It even sneaks up on you a bit while you're getting over your first stunned look, you'll be forced to go 'WTF?'

I can't believe this film is being slated so badly. It's not trying to be a Hollywood blockbuster and it still manages to far exceed most of them. The scene where Shannon Tweed has sex with her son in order to get his super-powered sperm inside her is pure genius. If you're feeling suicidal, this film will give you a reason to keep living. Watch it. This film has Shannon Tweed, A hot leading man, and a pair lipstick Lesbian PVC clad dominatrix types. Something for everyone. The whole film revolves around a lot of sinister people trying to get their hands on the leading man's super sperm. Everyone wants that sperm. You just don't get films like that. It was about seven years ago that I saw this film so I can't remember all of it now. I just remember how incredibly funny and bizarre it was. See it yourself and you'll understand.

My housemate and I watched this movie out of sheer lack of anything better to do one day - oh how glad we are that we did! This is quite possibly the funniest film in the "unintentionally so" category. Complete with mid-air cat fights, bizarre "torture" scenes and actors who skillfully skate past the whole incest issue, this film is a must for an evening in with a bunch of friends. Crank your willing suspension of disbelief to the maximum setting and enjoy!
