Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Originally to be titled "Killer Barbies", which is the actual name of the punk rock band that stars in the movie, but Mattel would not allow the use of their Barbie trademark name, so the word's spelling in the title (as well as all the references to the band's name in the movie) was ultimately changed to "Barbys". more

NOT a low point, 10 January 2005
7/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

I just briefly read a comment from another "rater" and see that he thought this was a low point for Jesse Franco. Hmmm, that's really hard to say with him. I rather liked this movie and if one needs to see a low point for Franco then check out "Tender Flesh", or better yet, DON'T. A band (Killer Barbys, of course, although it's spelled "Barbies" within the movie) is on the road, and they get stuck and stranded. They get invited to a castle belonging to a Countess and of course this is no ordinary Countess, she must have a special mixture of blood & semen to remain young, and it seems like all that's been in short supply lately. Hmm, well, not anymore. We have a roving henchman with two little dwarf side-kicks, rooms & freezers full of body parts, and of course the band, who are glad to have a nice place to kick back until they realize something is not quite right. By no means is this Franco's worst, I've seen much worse and it all depends on your tolerance for trash. Because this is trash, but it's kind of FUN trash. Lighten up people, Franco ain't Bergman. 7 out of 10.
