Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

RavenGlamDVDCollector Yet another one on my list of Hard-to-Find DVDs and actually a horrendously bad movie in several different ways. The six stars all go to Laura Albert. Had she been like the others, this movie would have been mercifully forgotten, where it actually belongs. But Ms. Albert really caught my fancy despite this being basically a slasher movie and thus generally lower than snail droppings. It is at least a whole goddamn universe better than AEROBICIDE, but that's another story. Any movie that's going to focus on blood flowing down a girl's leg in a glorification of violence against poor, little innocent girls, with throwaway characters I couldn't care less about, isn't going to get my vote, no way. Anyway, I can't get this one, and remember too little for an actual fair review, and this shoddy little entry, just begging to be deleted, has proved to be one of my least-liked attempts, but guys, I can't help it, it's really just a cry for assistance, so if anybody can come to the rescue, especially with a pre- recorded memory card, that would be of such a merciful relief I'd gladly reward you. Currently, mid-November 2015, there is a spark of hope on this front, with negotiations being made with a board member. Until I note otherwise, I continue searching. Reward still being dangled!There clearly was room for a much better flick than what emerged. Poor script with poor acting shot it to hell, but they definitely did not go Oscar-hunting with this one. This is a Class A exploitation movie and the director (Tanya Rosenberg) lucked out with Laura, the rest wasn't worth mentioning. Thank you to the boring dude on the Net who spoke and spoke for what seemed like hours and hours about the movie, repeating himself over and over, but then added the trailer. Yes, it's a cheesy flick, but there were enjoyable moments. Especially Laura, mostly Laura. Only Laura, really...

merklekranz "Don't let those knockers hypnotize you." "Blood Games" opens strong and never lets up. The plot is extremely simple. First it's the babes against the beer swilling rednecks in an anything goes, grab assing, baseball game. This is immediately followed by a shower scene that compares favorably with the best "women in prison" films. Next comes a nice assortment of violence, including death by baseball bat, knife, crushed by a bus, gun shot, hanging, cross bow, and that old stand by, kicked down a grain elevator. This hunted in the woods classic has moments of backwoods humor, nice photography, some nifty stunt work, acceptable character development, and acting that ranges from professional (Gregory Scott Collins), to not so good (pick any babe). Nevertheless, "Blood Games" delivers exactly what it promises and that is why it is a great exploitation film, and highly recommended of it's type. - MERK

Evolution-X Just got done watching this. I read the description and it seemed like it was a "most dangerous game" type storyline in the sense of "Surviving The Game" and "Hard Target". Of course, the difference between this film and those two is that there is no Van Damme, no John Woo style action sequences, nor is there Ice-T, Rutger Hauer and big name actors in a low budget movie. Just beautiful women and a bunch of rednecks. Anyway, the storyline is that this baseball team of scorchingly hot women beating the team of rednecks in their neck of the woods. The main guy on the team and his buddy want a peace of action and try to rape two women on the opposing team but end up being saved by their manager, only to be stabbed. Since the main guy of the team got killed by being rammed by a bus, his father wants his friends to take out the women. Reminded me more of "Surviving The Game" than "Hard Target" since it mostly took place in the woods and that the women were doing everything they can to survive. I watched this on Comcast On Demand, and figured that this would've been the only chance I would have to watch it. I enjoyed it, but I know it was far from the greatest I've ever seen. Of course, the acting was bad and the budget was really low, but still, it was an enjoyable bad movie. Watch it some way you can. You'd be surprised.

Mike_Noga This is a 90's b horror flick with 70's drive-in sensibilities. Although I'm sure most of you are familiar with this movie since it so permeates our culture, I'll go over the basics for the few Amazon customers who haven't heard of this Cinematic Masterwork. Back in the 90's before crystal meth, simple country folk had to go to great lengths to entertain themselves. One of their favorite ways to pass the time was to play baseball against roving bands of barnstorming all girls' baseball teams. Thus do Babe and the Ball Girls enter the modern zeitgeist. Babe and her team, managed by her father, are a kick-butt squad of baseball hotties. I don't know if any of the girls are actual baseball players but they were certainly among the hottest aerobics instructors at the mall at the time this film was cast. There isn't a single scene that doesn't feature finely toned young women wearing short shorts, tight jeans or mini-skirts. But lest you think it's all about the T&A, the women were all written with finely defined personalities. For example, they don't just feature blondes in the movie, but blonds with both short AND long hair. Same with the brunettes. While there are several brunettes with long hair the filmmakers go to great length to distinguish between them. One has blue eyes, one has brown eyes, and one has eyebrows you could knit an Irish sweater with. The girls beat the tar out of the rednecks in a game that borders on felonious assault and then retire to their showers while their manager tries to collect the prize money. The guy who brought the team to town, in order to celebrate his 30-year-old son Roy's birthday, is a hard case. He's angry that Roy and company lost to a bunch of girls, and he shore isn't going to pay those girls for humiliating his son (and by extension himself) This leads to a confrontation which I won't spoil for you but which, a gun, a knife, a baseball bat and a toilet later, finds the girls hot footing out of town on the team bus with the drunken in-bred villagers in hot pursuit, armed with all manner of guns, axes and even a crossbow. What follows is very reminiscent of Stallone's first Rambo, if you were to substitute a busload of leggy models for John Rambo and a pack of drunken hillbillies for Brian Dennehy/state police. The girls use their courage and wits in a battle for survival as they try to reach the nearest civilized town before the boozed up, slavering rednecks catch them. It's a lot of fun watching the ladies turn the tables on their attackers, although there are some very close calls and one is never exactly sure how it will all turn out. One word of honest warning. There is a pointless and brutal rape scene about 3/4 through the movie. It's pointless because we all know what is going to happen to these women if the bad guys catch them. We don't need to see it. I don't like rape scenes and they aren't necessary here. This one is typically ugly and nasty and its graphic explicitness really dispels the sense of b movie fun that builds up during the earlier scenes. Having said that, if you are the type of person who isn't bothered by such things or if you can fast forward past it, and if you liked "A League of Their Own" but felt that Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell didn't provide enough cheap sex and in-bred humor, not to mention violence, then Blood Games will probably hit a home run for you.
