Dead Hooker in a Trunk



Twisted Twins Kick Ass
Jen and Sylvia Soska kick ass with their feature film debut. Working with a tiny budget but an excess of ingenuity and wicked inspiration, they deliver a fun and twisted ride. It's great to see women who can work in the horror genre without flinching. Raw, uneven, but never dull. Look for their new film American Mary coming out in 2012.

OMGWTF
It's been a long time since a movie was so interesting that I screamed at it and waved my around while trying to watch it.

It's got violence. It's a comedy. It's the bizarreness that gets me though. Things happen, and I don't know what happened, or why. But someone probably lost an eye, or an arm, or a kidney. Or maybe they've been lassoed by a man on a horse. Or the dead hooker sits up suddenly and is beaten to death again.

An Exploitation Masterpiece -- Action, Mayhem, & Black Comedy!
First caught this at the 2010 Drunken Zombie Film Festival, and was blown away by how much friggin' fun this movie is.

Dead Hooker In A Trunk is a modern spin on the exploitation film and will be instantly recognizable to people who want their movies hard, fast, and mean -- with a fistful of black comedy thrown in for good measure. Jen and Sylvia Soska clearly enjoyed the heck out of themselves while putting together this crazy, no-punches-pulled piece of independent cinema, and it shows.

Not a lot of plot involved -- it's a bada**, geek, addict, and goody two-shoes trying to dispose of a dead hooker found in the bada**'s trunk... the origin of said hooker, unknown. On the way, eyes will be knocked out, arms will be yanked off, and even being dragged by a horse won't stop this dysfunctional gang from getting rid of the hooker... and exacting bloody revenge on those who screw with them in the process!

Amoral, vicious, and firmly tongue-in-cheek, Dead...
