Gripping story with well-crafted characters

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Following a series of savage deaths, the police's insistence on a young woman as the culprit gradually reveals the existence of her malicious twin sister out for revenge for her better life and tries to stop her.This was a rather enjoyable effort if only slightly flawed. One of the biggest pluses here is the fact that there's a lot of time spent trying to determine if there's actually any sense of whether or not she's the one doing the killing. This manages to pull out two or three different tactics to ensure it's not all that easy to determine what's going on, as the twin angle is played off in the last act so the remaining sections up until then utilize both the split personality feature in that it really is her while in a stupor or the fact of manipulating the surroundings to ensure she won't get caught, and it's quite good at doing these two tactics throughout here. Likewise, the film also manages to feature some incredibly brutal and graphic scenes in here that are wholly enjoyable and quite exciting to really play up her deranged and mental state with a slew of over-the-top graphic set-pieces filled with blood and gore including scenes of castration, tons of dismemberments, slit throats and the craziest sequence where she cuts open his stomach and shoves in an assortment of fireworks before setting them off inside his body, so this one really tends to get overloaded with the blood and gore. Coupled with the rampant nudity as well, this one's certainly not all that bad but does have a few problems. The fact that the revenge makes no sense seeing as how the entire thing is based on pure circumstance is a little troubling, as there's very little about it that would make someone start such a campaign to destroy someone that insignificant. Her job is decent at best, her boyfriend is about to propose marriage but hasn't yet and there's no evidence of her social life so it's not like her life is really one that needs ruining to the extent this one does, much less even in the first place so the purpose of choosing that particular point to strike is highly confusing. Same as with the clichéd and overused method of turning her psycho, with the abusive foster-parents after their true parents died which is hardly original and not all that convincing. The other part here that does need mentioning is the fact that, because this one is set-up as a mystery for the most part, the film is pretty slow to get going in the first half with the large amount of time spent on uncovering the reasons for the attacks while also playing out her home-life which takes a while to get going. Otherwise, this one is pretty enjoyable.Rated R: Extreme Graphic Language, Extreme Graphic Violence, Continuous Full Nudity and several sex scenes.

I never saw Brian DePalma's 'Sisters', but even without that background I could tell right off that this movie's screenplay was going to be very derivative of a bunch of other, much better, thriller and suspense movies. Think Hitchcock with more gore and outright screwing and much poorer performances and you'll have the right idea. It was boring enough in spots that I fast forwarded (at 1.5 speed) through a bunch of setup scenes in the middle of the movie just to get to something that looked more entertaining. That was never an issue with Hitchcock. Still, even 2nd rate Hitchcock can be fun on occasion (I'm thinking of the movie "Squirm" which riffed on "The Birds") and the sleazy tone of the screenplay takes this in a direction that any young adolescent male would want Hitchcock to go. You have to work very hard indeed to overlook the plot holes here - i.e., while the evil twins' amazing resemblance to Jennifer may allow her to frame Jennifer based on eyewitness testimony, the evil twin also leaves fingerprints and DNA clues all over the place at each of her murders. 30 seconds of actual forensic investigation (and the total lack of back spatter on Jennifer) would clear the "good" twin. And the two DIs are probably the worst detectives in the history of policework -not only do they suck at their jobs,but the kind of abusive behavior they display towards a young woman would get them suspended in any major metro police department.Also the story arc doesn't quite work - the screenplay is either one final plot twist too long or too short.(This was also a problem in "Penetration Angst") Either the movie should end when the good twin is mistakenly shot by the police in the holiday home (and the evil twin gets to continue playing her part), or else after the final cock-up in the intensive care ward, the good twin should either go nuts herself or the bad twin should get taken out. The "pathetic" ending they chose just doesn't fit the tone and mood of the rest of the film.A fair amount of black humor, a reasonable amount of skin and sleaze, Fiona Horsey gets tied up again (a nice hogtie this time), a couple of nice visual setups here and there, and best of all, I got this movie as a part of a DVD pack with 12 movies for $5, which means that if I don't care to see this movie again, I can always use it as a drinks coaster. Or a skeet shooting target.

Twisted Sisters is about a set of twins (both played by Fiona Horsey), one a pregnant, happily engaged successful business-woman, the other a man-hating castrating she-bitch who would get Gloria Steinem's seal of approval. It's also about an hour and a half too long. Crammed with barely adequate acting, very derivative storyline, and not particularly grisly deaths, this is one that can be skipped and you won't anything at all. It's been done, and done much better in "Sisters" Only recommended for true dyed in the wool fans of Director Wolfgang Büld, all two of you.My Grade: D

Jennifer played by Fiona Horsey is pregnant and about to be married to Alan(Andrew Southern),the man of her dreams.Unfortunately for her witnesses to a series of brutal castration murders point to Jennifer.A pair of detectives discover that Jennifer has a murderous twin sister named Norah,who enjoys butchering and castrating men during sex."Twisted Sisters" is a pretty tasteless and wickedly funny exploitation film that offers some gore and a decent amount of sleaze.Horsey is great when playing the murderous Norah and equally good at conveying the innocent victim.The death by firework is easily the film's highlight.Overall,I enjoyed this film and you should too,if you liked "Penetration Angst" or "Lovesick:Sick Love".8 out of 10.
