DEATHROW GAMESHOW(1987)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics
Probably the most disturbing movie made until "The
Hunger Games"! But, unlike "the Hunger Games",
this one's done for laughs! While you may be a
redneck if you like this, it has a certain appeal
to it that makes it hard to stop watching! Worth
at least one watch! C+
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
This movie is one of those rare offerings of pure,
harmless, campy entertainment! Despite its failure
to win a mainstream audience, it does have its
own cult following, and it is too bad that the
character of Gloria Sternvirgin (aka gloriabitch)
was never given a sequel to expand her role.
Some of the dialogue and actions of this film
hit the bullseye, and the only other films where
this combination (and type) of humor and plot
structure could be found where in those directed
by Paul Bartel (Deathrace 2000, Eating Rauol,
Class Struggle in Beverly Hills).
It's just a feeling! - see this movie, you will
like it. - JimHammond
