Candy Stripers

June 27, 2006 - Rated: R
Runtime: 89 Minutes

Studio: Sony Pictures

Director: Kate Robbins

Writer(s): Jill Garson, Kate Robbins

Staring: Brian Lloyd, Sarah Ball, Brianna Berman, Deanna Brooks, Richard Burke

Description: After being infected by kissing a female patient, a candy striper transforms into a voluptuous, sugar-loving, killing machine. An injured basketball player, and his friends notice something is going on in the hospital and try to escape. But a quarantine in the hospital makes that impossible. Now they must try to stay alive, and stay away from the candy stripers.

Gore/Violence: This movie has very little gore in it, but when it does WOW! I don't think I have ever seen a man's crotch torn apart in any movie like this one. A couple of hearts are also shown being ripped out of their owners body. Other then that, violence is limited to the candy stripers encasing their victims in cocoon like netting.

Body Count: A very high body count, but most of the victims are not shown, only the aftermath as the survivors run for their lives.

Nudity & Sexuality: Since this movie stars Playboy Playmates Deanna Brook and Serria Tawan, it is safe to assume that there is a fair bit of nudity in this movie. But you only get to see a flash here and there. Also, the aliens spread from girl to girl by lesbian kissing. :-)

Death Scenes: Most death scenes do not have much to them. The girls seduce the guys, show their boobies, and then encase them in their cocoon things. There are a couple of cool death scenes including a guy getting his crotch bitten off completely, and a couple of people having their hearts ripped out.

Acting/Storyline: Some of the acting was not the greatest, but it didn't take much away from the film. A few of the main characters done a great job with their part, but the lack of experience shown on a few others. The storyline does not have much to it, and it basically takes place at a hospital throughout the movie. It does have B&B (Blood and Boobies) to keep your attention.

Final Rating: Overall the movie was just all right. I don't want to recommend it, but it does have a few nice death scenes and gore to say that it might be worth the rental. Some of the parts in the storyline do not make sense at all, but when does a horror movie make sense 100% of the time.

BiGMaN gives this movie 2.5/5 severed heads!
