Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
This has to be one of the biggest wastes of film in the history of Hollywood. I rented this with some friends of mine, and it was so horrible that we rented it again just to verify the badness. Pat Morita as the chief of police who is always walking around with a cigarette sticking out of his mouth (though they are hardly ever lit)is not a convincing performance, and is a disappointment. Stupid plot with horrible acting from both accomplished actors, and wanna-be actresses (read: former Playboy Playmates). If I could have rated this movie with less than one star, I would have.One more note for those pervs who just want to see some skin from the playmates...don't waste your time...there is some nudie shots, but they are late in the film, and not worth the wait.
View More"Auntie Lee's Meat Pies" is supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek (no pun intended) horror film. Basically, Aunti Lee (Karen Black) employs her four nieces to lure unsuspecting men to their shack. The men are then robbed of all their belongings and get ground up as meat pies to hide the evidence. The only way you can really stomach this film (no pun intended) is by looking for the stars. Karen Black took the role to break what she thought was her pigeon-holing as a good two-shoes. It's fun to see Pat Morita take a break from his Karate Kid series to play the sheriff. The best cameo belongs to Huntz Hall as a farmer. Hall, for those who don't know, was one of the original Dead End Kids, also known, in various incarnations, as the East Side Kids and the Bowery Boys.But, the best reason to watch this film is for Auntie Lee's nubile nieces. Pia Reyes, Ava Fabian, Kristine Rose and Teri Weigel were all Playboy playmates prior to this movie. Weigel is also currently a porn star, so you can see why men eagerly followed her home.If you're in the mood for something really gruesome, though, try finding "Sweeny Todd: The Demon of Barber Street" instead. Auntie Lee may make meat pies, but you will find something much better with her nieces' eye candy.
