Leofwine_draca DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK is a typical indie non-horror/non-thriller made by a bunch of amateurs who moonlight as both cast and crew. They're no good in either role. This is the kind of film you see with positive reviews online, failing to realise that said reviews are written by family and friends (or the filmmakers themselves). The story has a group of friends discovering the body of a prostitute in the boot of their car - as you do - and trying to figure out what to do about it. It's very slow throughout, with unlikeable characters and an overly talky screenplay.
drdeathforpresident one word describes this - terrible. I am being nice here too. This mindless garbage should not be seen by human eyes. The acting is as good as a high school play. The script has so many 'F' words in it that you can't possibly follow this. The sisters have mass issues - one being their hatred towards all men. The only male lead is the biggest wuss in all cinema. He makes Charlie Brown look like Rambo. How many times do we have to see the dude vomit? I get it already. All the main character does is swear and act like she is bigger then the man upstairs. What world is this? I had to turn this stinker off midway because my brain started to hurt.
ken-schaefer So many people have badmouthed this movie, I felt like I had to respond. First off, in fairness, I have to say that I rented this movie knowing nothing about it, except that I liked the title and a trailer I saw on another IFC disc. And, I spent the first 30 minutes rooting that a meteor would come and kill every character in the movie.But then, outrageous things started happening with little consequence. And the main two female characters started growing on me. And more weird stuff happened, and even the goody two shoes started to grow on me. I'm glad the meteor never show'd up.This is a funny, freaky movie, but you gotta give it time. Imagine my shock and delight to learn AFTER I HAD WATCHED THE WHOLE THING, that it was written and directed by a pair of women. And then, to discover that it's the two main female leads! Sexy, smart, wicked sense of humor (an almost guy-like sense of humor, if I might be so sexist).In the end, I enjoyed this movie a lot. It wasn't pretentious, high-brow or meant to be taken seriously, and I think that a lot of the bile being shot at it is because they 1) didn't go all the way through, or 2) were expecting something else.BTW, I didn't have any problem with the audio. But then, I always watch movies with subtitles on, cause I have a problem understanding dialog in the best of movies.
maximuspain I won't warn you of spoilers, but I will warn you of this awful, awful mess of a film. I read many reviews praising this disgrace to the skies, which made me eager to watch it. The high hopes I had for this film were crushed completely within the first quarter of an hour. I really don't know where to begin pointing out the countless shortcomings of this film, nevertheless I will try my best.First, the allegedly refreshing and convincing story turned out to be among the most illogical, inconsequent crap ever written. The dialogs, oh my God, the dialogs. They were so freaking awkward. The actors were even to explain how they feel due to the lack of both storytelling and acting skills of these "genius" twins and their cast.And the specious argument of gore is neither valid nor justifiable for this film. The effects are cheap in the cheapest sense of the word, far from convincing and some were even ridiculous. If the movie were labeled a comedy that would be okay, but according to its official IMDb page it's not.The wild mix of genres, by some reviewers considered innovative, proved to be half-baked and shallow, and therefore unsatisfactory. One review I read compared the movie to a roller-coaster, and I can sort-of agree to that. Only I think it's a BROKEN roller-coaster!Don't ride a broken roller-coaster, even if it's only figuratively spoken, it can cost you an awful lot of brain cells. P.S.: I recommend re-watching "The Horribly Slow Murderer With The Extremely Inefficient Weapon" instead of wasting time for this abomination.
