It’s time for #TrashOrTerrorTuesday…
…when I examine a film that’s been languishing in my personal library to determine if it is #Trash or #Terror
– or more importantly, if it deserves to stay in my collection.
And so, out from the dusty shelves of #VHS tapes comes…
Blood Sisters (1987) by #RobertaFindlay
Seven girls must spend the night in a creepy former whorehouse as part of an initiation.
“Sexy college girls pitted against an unspeakable power ready to prey upon their naked bodies and souls…”
Confession: I’m a bit of Roberta Findley fan and, as such, there was little doubt in my mind that I would want to keep this VHS tape of Blood Sisters (1987) in my collection. Still, it had been a long time since I had watched it, and it was collecting dust, so…
Blood Sisters is a weird mix of sleazy whorehouse antics in flashbacks to the past, and current day sorority slasher movie hijinks – which, as you might guess, is of particular interest to me, since I once wrote a play called Sorority Girls Slumber Party Massacre: The Musical. There may even be some supernatural ghost action thrown in for good measure.
So what’s the verdict?
Blood Sisters (1987) is not Roberta Findley’s best movie, but it provides enough campy entertainment and good natured sleaze to easily entertain aficionados for ninety minutes. It is somehow both #trash and #terror, and I will be keeping it in my collection to enjoy again (and again, and again)…
