Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
YouPregnant As a life long howard stern fan i had to watch this movie after spotting beetlejuice on the cover. for those of you that don't know he is the black midget with the tiny head on the cover and he is a beyond retarded person.So right off the bat i am gonna tell you this movie blows big time. i am sure you already suspected that but you are reading the reviews to find out just how much it sucks and if it is so bad it ends up being good. sorry that is not the case.the movie is about an hour and 45 mins but it feels like 4 hours of torture. honestly i didn't see the whole movie because at 1 point i started reading a magazine then later i was browsing the internet. it was all i could do to get through the movie.im gonna list a few things that weren't bad because that's easier. the soundtrack, although it had no recognizable songs (except shack your ass bitch, from the stern show) the ones i heard were good. jerry lawler's performance was passable. not great but much better then everyone else. lots and lots of titties but they are porn stars so who really cares? the special effects aka the blood and guts were the only thing done right in this movie considering what it cost to make.now the really bad. the sheer amount of head shaking in this movie makes me want to shake my head. and there is a part at the end (if you make it that far) where the girls are squatting repeatedly in fear, i am not sure anybody really directed this movie. the background or ambient music is stock or public domain because i know I've heard it in other bad low budget movies. horns and flutes and so on. there is nothing original or special about this movie.i say skip it unless you got some buddies over and you want to play a drinking game involving drinking when you see head shakes or boobs.
slasherstudios Remember when horror movies were fun? Back in the 1980's, all you needed was a masked killer, some somewhat attractive teens (saying "hot" may be a bit of an overstatement), and a couple of buckets of blood. Mix these ingredients in the cinematic slasher blender and out came a slasher flick worthy to show your friends. Today's horror world is a different place. In the world of found footage horror, cheap just is never cheap enough. Why pay for a couple of gallons of blood when a door can slam shut several times for a "scary" effect? Yawn. This is not the horror that I grew up with and it is certainly not the horror that I am proud of today. Am I the only one who misses the classic era of slashers in which the filmmakers just wanted the audience to have a good time? Clearly, judging by tonight's film, I am not. From directors Michael Hoffman Jr and Aaron T. Wells comes the delightfully entertaining "Girls Gone Dead." If ever there was a cinematic valentine to the 80's slasher, it is this film."Girls Gone Dead" starts off a little rough as we meet our main girl (A.K.A. the "pure" one) Rebecca (Katie Peterson who reminds me of a prettier and more talented Tara Reid) having a nightmare involving a sacrifice in a church. The girl who is to be sacrificed is not pure and must be killed to rid the world of evil. Thankfully, Rebecca wakes up from this nightmare to be confronted by her mother who is terrified that her weekend vacation with "the girls" will turn into an orgy of sin (shades of "Carrie" & "Slumber Party Massacre II" here). Of course her mother is right and Rebecca and the girls plan to drink as much as possible, get naked, and find some guys. What Rebecca and pals don't know is someone has come along for the ride slashing each and every one of the girls, and the guys they meet along the way, until all the "evil" has been cleansed from the world.This is the kind of film that many will either love or hate. The acting is a bit all over the map with many of the girls hired more for their ability to take over their tops than deliver their lines. The film is far too long at 102 minutes and it takes to take its sweet time getting to its final reveal. Also, speaking of final reveals, this has to be one of the most predictable whodunit slashers that I have seen in recent memory. If you don't figure out the killer from the second this character walks on screen, you haven't seen enough horror movies.So, what works about this film? Everything else! We get some ooey gooey slasher deaths with more blood on screen than all of the Saw sequels combined. This killer is brutal. We are talking multiple decapitations, a cut off breast, multiple amputations, and that's just in the first half of the movie! Thankfully most of the effects are practical so there is no obvious CGI to put a wet blanket on the gore. Though the CGI does rear its ugly head in the final death scene and the result is...not terrible, I guess. Need more reasons to watch this slasher? How about cameos that include Jerry "The King" Lawler as a sheriff, Beetlejuice & Stockbroker Sal from "The Howard Stern Show", Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain, porn legend Ron Jeremy, and, in my favorite cameo, the "Queen of the B's" Linnea Quigley as bartender Wild Willie. A blast from beginning to end, this is the kind of movie that just puts a smile on my face. Whether you rent it from the breasts, the blood, or maybe a combo of the two, you are sure to have a great time with "Girls Gone Dead." Have fun with it, it looks like everyone who made it did!
gary_siegel40 Originally I purchased this DVD after hearing about it on the Howard Stern show. I have been a huge fan of Beetlejuice for over a decade and figured.. why not? Little did I know... Girls Gone Dead was an amazing film and exactly what is MISSING from movies today. As an 80s kid growing up, I loved the old silly horror/comedy movies. Slasher flicks with T & A that never took themselves too seriously. This is exactly what I found with Girls Gone Dead. The story is fun, the girls are beautiful (and topless often), and what an interesting cast! Beetlejuice, Ron Jeremy, and WWE wrestling legend Jerry "The King" Lawler?! The film's lead and drop dead gorgeous (no pun intended) Katie Peterson did a fantastic job with the role. I swear I laughed a lot and had no idea who was doing the killing. Check out this movie! What beats hot girls, bloody gruesome killing, hot girls (again), and BEETLEJUICE! My favorite film of 2012.
James Bos Girls Gone Dead is a straight up 80's style slasher movie but with a more modern feel to it. Lots of dimwitted hot chicks taking off their tops and doing all the wonderful things that get young sluts killed in horror. The movie is paced very quickly and never leaves you feeling bored and waiting for something to happen. The chemistry between the girls is a big plus. They play well off each other and the dialog between them feels very natural and will make you chuckle multiple times. Jerry "The King" Lawler surprised me in his role as the Sheriff. Most of the male actors were all great at playing smarmy douche bags that you want to see meet a brutal demise. Video quality is AMAZING for a DVD only release looking as good if not better than most horror blu-rays out now. If you want a fun horror movie to throw on with some buddies Girls Gone Dead will put a smile on all your faces.
