Poison Sweethearts (2008)
Review by Jeff Hudson

Directed by: The Campbell Brothers
Starring:
Ashleigh Holeman/The Biker
Roza Haidet/Young Girl
Raymond Turturro/Schemer
Plot:
On the depraved streets of Cleveland, young women are dealt hard lives. Trudging through days of filth, poverty and crime, they do what they can to survive. Women backed against a wall, mistreated and abused, now, see them strike back with horrifying vengeance! Witness these blood soaked stories and more in a cautionary tale of what happens when innocent women are pushed too far!
Acting:
The acting in this movie is real bad, and I get the fact that it is super low budget and it’s possible the acting is supposed to bad, but to me it was down rite horrid. The only one that stands out to give any effort was Raymond Turturro(Schemer) he acted like he was into his role and it was good, but at the same time bad everyone else look that more bad.
Gore:
This is what really sucked, it is meant to be a throwback to the grindhouse flicks, and most had sweet kills and good realistic gore, this movie had almost all off screen kills other than a guy hit in the head, and someone thrown off a building, and when blood was shown it looked horrible, like someone spilt some cheap ass paint.
T & A:
Once again like most grind house flicks there was lots of T & A but here we get nothing.
Directing:
The Campbell Brothers didn’t offer anything special here, it looked like it older and the flick looked like shit, if that’s what they ere going for I guess they got it.
Soundtrack:
The score was pretty good when used, but I thought it was under used.
Final thoughts:
From watching the trailer for this flick it looked real cool, but then after watching it I was really let down, it made you think you were going to watch a shocking crazy exploitation film, but really it was a movie that could have been rated PG. There wasn’t much blood, most kills are off screen, no nudity, and not a lot of foul language. I would stay clear of this movie. I give it a 2/10.
