Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers
An inspired Fred Olen Ray in the wake of his masters, grappling with a
b movie that has all the features in the right place. A story, which,
all in all, makes sense. Without forgetting a couple of pearls.
It is useless to write what the title "Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers" is
inspired by, but it should be noted that the director feels compelled
to immediately clarify that chainsaws are real and used by
professionals. Don’t try this at home!
A demented beginning that represents the line of the whole film that
parodies film noir, horror and plays with splatter, with large doses of
boobs and jokes as a side dish. A film shot in just five days, using
sets from other films and the director's house in one scene.
Nothing is missing in the adventures of detective Jack Chandler, (John
Henry Richardson), a stereotypical penniless and semi-alcoholic
character, hired to find a certain Samantha, who ran away from home and
played by scream queen Linnea Quigley.
During his investigations he comes across a strange sect that idolizes
an Egyptian god who needs human sacrifices. To find the meat to please
the deity, a mysterious man hires some girls who lure customers in bars
and night clubs. Once home, once they are undressed, they tear them to
pieces with a chainsaw. Flying pieces, gushing blood, not so much as in
the best splatters, but just enough to make people laugh and make the
idea.
Chandler, also struggling with a useless police, tries to put an end to
this sect. He succeeds, even if a sequel is announced in the credits
that we will never see.
A well-studied B movie whose story follows its own meaning, some gags are not bad, as are the actresses.
In addition to Linnea Quigley, Richardson and other well-known names in
genre cinema, there is also the good Gunnar "Leatherface" Hansen, who
plays "the stranger", at the head of the sect. His presence is a pearl
that frames this pleasant b movie.
