4.0 out of 5 stars The Chelsea Show, April 2, 2008

By	Foggy Tewsday - See all my reviews

Although notable for being the first film to feature Misty Mundae (she's credited in the opening titles as Lil' Erin DeWright), her sister, Chelsea (a.k.a. Daisy DeWright), is the star of this sleazy exploitation sensation from Factory 2000. Filmed in 1997 and issued on VHS in 1998, this is the first time that this movie has been presented on DVD. According to the accompanying liner notes, the video version was subjected to some editing because it was felt that some of its contents went a little too far. This DVD edition is, apparently, the uncut version, and there are a few scenes, mostly involving Chelsea's character, that are quite startling.

Winston (Josh Miller) has invited a group of local slackers to a party at his house. Meanwhile, his brother, Myles (Dave Uzi), has decamped from the mental hospital. Myles has been staying there because of his liking for strangling people. As the partygoers look forward to a night of drink, drugs and sex, a masked man dressed in black slips into the house. You may think that this sounds like standard slasher-film fare where a bunch of kids gets picked off one-by-one by a madman. Well, the film does descend into just that. Indeed, the film's last 30 minutes sag quite badly, but the jaw-dropping action comes before the party gets into swing.

There's a graphic scene with Michi and Freak Nasty that makes for uncomfortable viewing. These two also get it on in somewhat less unpleasant fashion in the lost opening of `Vampire Strangler' which can be found in the bonus material on Vampire Strangler 2-DVD Collector's Edition. However, the result of their unfortunate union in `I Was a Teenage Strangler' is Michi's pregnancy.

As for Chelsea, she's heard that Michi has taken up residence in the basement. Chelsea hypnotizes a friend (Mikey Ovum) in order to find out if this rumor is true. She delivers her lines with tongue firmly in cheek. I won't let on where she forces Mikey to put his tongue. Depending on your own predilections, you'll feel either jealous or sick to your stomach.

If you've seen any of Factory 2000's productions, you will know how shoddy most of them look. This is no exception. The picture quality is rough in places and some of the camera angles are a tad disorienting. The loud music soundtrack occasionally renders some of the dialogue inaudible. You won't see any great acting in this film. All the dialogue is improvised, and, while Chelsea has fun with this, some of it matches the quality of the acting.

It's a little disappointing that there is no bonus material on this DVD apart from trailers for other titles. I wonder if an edited version of Chelsea and Misty's interview on the bonus features on Sin Sisters could not have been included. In this interview, they talk about their early film roles for Factory 2000 and Chelsea talks about the abortion sequence in `I Was a Teenage Strangler'. There is a booklet containing some interesting reading material, though.

If you're a fan of the exploitation genre, then you may well want to see this film. If you want to see it only for Misty's first screen appearance, you should be warned that she only has a minor role here. She plays it very well, though. Much of the film is pantomime, but Misty plays it straight. If you're a fan of Chelsea Mundae, you won't want to miss this. Explicit, tasteless, disgusting and awful. I liked it.
