1998 ·1h 36m · ★ 3.0 (16)

Mean and domineering Jane and the sweet and ditsy Jackie are two radically contrasting sisters who suffer from severe trauma after witnessing the murder/suicide of their parents as well as seeing their other sibling Janice raped and killed by her assailants. The pair are deemed fit to re-enter society and get released from a sanitarium where they have undergone extensive rehabilitation therapy. However, Jane and Jackie prove to be anything but sane and harmless as they embark on a vicious spree in which they torture, murder, and mutilate any man luckless enough to cross their lethal paths.

Why it matters

Two sisters’ fractured psyches ignite a brutal revenge spree that fuses trauma and toxic femininity into raw, unsettling exploitation horror.

  • A rare slice of ‘90s shot-on-video madness where ambition far outstrips budget and polish.
  • Uneven performances and rough technicals test patience but reveal a grimy cult impulse.
  • For fans of underground revenge thrillers and the era’s twisted homegrown horror scene.
  • Brutal and bleak, it’s less a polished scare and more a time capsule of VHS-era desperation and rage.
