American Mary......a pleasant mystery Revealed

 American Mary - A pleasant mystery Revealed
by: Rob Dimension


This past weekend, the teaser trailer for the new film, American Mary by Jen and Sylvia Soska, found it's way to the internet. I was lucky enough to have a chance to view the teaser, prior to the public release, and sat in amazement as the creators of Dead Hooker in a Truck, have once again peeked my interest.



The Twisted Twins seem to know what Horror fans want to see. Quickly becoming leaders in the Women's Directors movement, earning their spot amogst some of the best envisionists. The vagueness (it's early and I'm not sure this is even a word...but go with it) of the trailer creates interest, thus doing it's job. I have my own conclusions as to the direction the Soska's are taking, but take a minute and draw your own......it's a 52 second tease that will make butterflies in any Horror fans belly flutter.

The Soska Twins show our show some LOVE!

Here is what we found on The Soska Twins website yesterday! They loved our show, what's stopping you from watching? Hurry up and check them out, come back and check us out too!!!



DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK checks into the Late Night Horror Hotel...




What, pray tell, you may be asking yourselves, is the "late night horror hotel"? Well, boys and grrls, you are in for a treat. Rob Dimension, John Cannon, and Pigamortis are gents that we twisted twins have a lot in common with; sick yet humorous tastes, a passion for film, and a wicked awesome independent spirit. Their show, Late Night Horror Hotel, ensures thrills and chills, laughs and tears, and even features a devious and delicious cooking segment.

We were absolutely delighted to send gents of our own kind, with demented and gore~geous tastes, our beloved baby, our debut feature, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. A special thanks to mister Dimension for reviewing the film.

Want a little taste of what he thought of the Hooker pie...?

"The deeper I dig into the background of this film, the more I am delighted. Female directors and writers are finally getting respect they deserve and the go ahead to release some insane flicks; The Soska Twins, who apparently are very warped, just ripped a big hole in Woman’s Rights in film making. Jen and Sylvia Soska are Canadian twins who, while extremely cute are also, more importantly, extremely gifted. My hats off to them, Dead Hooker in a Trunk will be fully endorsed by me...the movie, that is." ~Rob Dimension, Late Night at the Horror Hotel


Check out their show, EVERY Thursday and Saturday Night at 12 Midnight on Philly's public access television, check out their site here, and check out the film review HERE.

A very special thanks to all the gents at the Late Night Horror Hotel!

XO,
Jen

Rob Dimension finds a Dead Hooker in a Trunk and smiles

Dead Hooker in a Trunk review
by: Rob Dimension


As I shift through my pile of Dvds of yesteryear and today, looking amongst the many to review…one title sticks out: “Dead Hooker in a Trunk”. The title alone makes me smile, for some that will disgust, but come on, we are Horror fans right? Think about it - a dead hooker, hot girls, gore and the simpleness of fishing line re-attaching an arm...how much better can it get?


The deeper I dig into the background of this film, the more I am delighted. Female directors and writers are finally getting respect they deserve and the go ahead to release some insane flicks; The Soska Twins, who apparently are very warped, just ripped a big hole in Woman’s Rights in film making. Jen and Sylvia Soska are Canadian twins who, while extremely cute are also, more importantly, extremely gifted. My hats off to them, Dead Hooker in a Trunk will be fully endorsed by me...the movie, that is.


Dead Hooker in a Truck is one of those little films that could. A small cast of very determined talents and a cleverly written script make this a grand slam, at least for me. Did you ever wake up after a night from partying and not remember how a dead hooker gets into your trunk? Me either, for some...this can be a problem. That’s the premise, but that’s only the start.




Our four characters are The Bad Ass portrayed by Sylvia Soska and her sister the Geek, played by Jen Soska are joined by the Junkie (Rikki Gagne) and Mr. Goody Two Shoes (CJ Wallis) as they try and avoid the Police, a Brutal gang with torture on their mind and an insane Serial killer. Never knowing what’s next for the foursome is what makes this one a winner. Twists and turns and some incredible gore keep you watching, plus a fantastic musical score add to the excitement. The ability to not take themselves serious is also a big winner for me. You can tell that the cast loved making this film, it transfers to film perfectly.




For this being the Soska’s first feature film, I really cannot wait to see what they have coming next. This film is making its way around the Festivals and I will be willing to bet, it will get even more recognition.
