Blu-ray Review – Nightmare Sisters

Feeling the urge to bang out another feature after working on a series of B-movies such as "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama," director David DeCoteau decided to challenge himself with a Corman-esque task. Instead of developing a film from the ground up, DeCoteau simply raided the materials he had access too, partnering with writer Kenneth J. Hall to create 1988's "Nightmare Sisters," which was shot over four days, working with a screenplay that was crafted in a week. Armed with short ends, a cheap 35mm camera, leftover props, and a working relationship with lead actresses Michelle Bauer, Linnea Quigley, and Brinke Stevens, DeCoteau set out to make a cheapie horror romp with broad comedy and ample nudity. Keep those standards in mind, and "Nightmare Sisters" is a triumphant achievement of limited creative goals, watching the cast and crew pull off an amazingly accomplished effort in next to no time, while still managing to include some laughs and pleasing oddity in what's essentially a rush job to feed the once ravenous home video market beast. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
