This movie is pretty ridiculous in parts and the ending goes over the cliff into downright laughable territory - BUT its mindless fun if you're looking for an early 90s straight-to-video horror type film. This movie was made smack in the middle of Drew Barrymore's 90s bad girl phase and she does the best she can with what she's got to work with. Her mother Jaid is in this too -- this was filmed in the late winter/early spring of 1992, right before they stopped talking for decades. The story is an interesting enough premise, even if it does go off the rails by the end and is fun just to see Drew in these kind of roles before she totally chnged into the good gi next door image.

As a Drew Barrymore fanatic, I was excited to see this hard to find film on The Sundance Channel one night - it was the only movie in her filmography I had not seen. What a disappointment it was that she was only in maybe 60 seconds in a random cameo - but in the end I'm glad she wasn't in more of this horrible movie. The plot is stupid and it feels like most of the dialogue is improvised - which said dialogue consists mainly of the F word and other explitives shouted over & over. The F word is seriously said probably every 2 or 3 other words the entire movie. The acting is atrocious as well. I ended up buying this movie only to complete my Drew collection but it's the only DVD that I've never even taken the plastic wrap off of. The only reason I ever would is if there was someone I wanted to lock in a room and administer extreme torture to by playing this movie on a loop.
