Revenge - 1986

 More of the VHS from the porn store with a perhaps not quite as rare and not quite as amateur film here, the 1986 cleverly-titled Revenge.  John Carradine and a vague plot, lets make the movie.

This needs to be mentioned in the same breat as ISOYGT from last time not just because they were bought at the same store, but also because like I said, this is in the same amateur vein, just not AS MUCH.  This movie had some production, even if it mostly took the form of them simply hiring a known actor for one day of filming.

Revenge is also known as Blood Cult II, the sequel to the 1985 film which is something of a cult classic.  It is directed by the same person and has similarities, so it might as well actually be Blood Cult II, but it is not titled that way.  It is the sequel though, I guess.  

Revenge is basically about a cult of some sort which is killing women and leaving a little totem on their bodies.  Some people are going to this area and are killed, repeat, repeat.  John Carradine is a cult leader guy, and I kid you not, probably on set for one day.  I don't really remember much else plot-wise.  It's extremely straight-forward.

Revenge has some kills and some trashy fun, but it's not as fus as ISOYGT.  It is pretty much just a cheap horror flick with little going on between the ears, but it's fucking fun enough man, it's fine ENOUGH.  I'll give it like a 2.
