Bad Girls Go to Hell

DIRECTED BY: Doris Wishman

REVIEWED: 05-07-97

... Or they at least end up in Doris Wishman movies. Boobalicious blonde "Gigi Darlene" plays Meg Kelton, left alone in her apartment when hubby goes to work. She wanders out into the stairwell where the leering serial-killer-lookin' janitor decides to have himself a little grope-athon. When the Megster threatens to tell her husband, the janitor, in a weird Evil-Overlord-of-the-Universe monotone, says, "You wouldn't be so foolish!" He does his thing, then insists she meet him at his apartment. Rocket scientist Meg heads on over, where the janitor goes for the gold once again--only this time, Meg whacks him, gets scared and splits town. Our unfortunate heroine winds up in the Big Apple, where she falls in with various oddballs, including a seemingly normal fellow who flips out at the mere mention of "having a drink." Insisting he's a teetotaler, he guzzles a bottle of scotch and beats Meg with his belt. She also falls in with a body-stocking-clad lesbian and a creepy old lady, all the while fearing that the cops are closing in. Director Wishman does her standard routine of shooting the movie silent, then (very badly) dubbing it. In many cases, we find ourselves looking at shoes or a phone or just about anything but the person who's talking. There are also endless shots of feet--standing, walking, running, stalking--you name it, you'll see feet doin' it. Damn is this movie awful. I kinda dug it, though. (Something Weird Video)
