Former pin-up model and actress Ginny had been cast aside by the heartless and exploitative modeling industry when she was a young woman due to her body type. Ginny didnt take rejection well and over the years developed into a revenge seeking, blood thirsty, broken woman. When her new neighbors Debbie and Sal move in, Debbie begins to notice strange things going on next door. Sal credits it to Debbies psychological instability and believes she is seeing things, falling deeper into her psychosis. Debbie is obsessively determined to figure out what secret life Ginny is leading. Her new nosey neighbor throws a damper on Ginnys lifestyle activities; such as her cannibalistic food addictions and ever growing body count. Both women become determined to put an end to the others obsession.

Dreadfully Boring

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Ginny (Lynn Lowry) is a former model who retired because she got old and the world loves young women. So Ginny, in her bitterness kills and eats young girls. Tiffany Shepis plays a crazy lady that moved in next door.This isn't the first horror film to rant about the facts of the industry. Linnea Quigley was in one a few years back, but didn't prattle on the entire film about it. She made her comment and moved on. The fact is this whole film was in praise of obese women and got really tiresome. It has cult appeal, but seriously, how long can one joke stretch? A lot of people loved the film because it was scream queen Debbie Rochon's directing debut. Started out good, got stuck in neutral. Not much character build-up. Hopefully she will have a better script to direct next time.This film won numerous horror fest awards.Guide: F-word. No sex. brief nudity (Kaylee Williams)

Debbie Rochon's directorial debut is a hilarious and thought-provoking horror movie with a stellar cast that reveals more with each viewing. The script by James Mogart not only had me laughing throughout, but it is also a great social commentary on how society views women as they age. Ginny (played by the incredible Lynn Lowry) lures young women into her home and cannibalizes them in many unforgettable scenes that manage to be horrifying as well as funny. Tiffany Shepis plays a new neighbor dealing with mental issues who becomes obsessed with her new neighbor eventually leading to a showdown. I especially loved the TV show the whole town couldn't stop watching, Suzi's Secrets, where Babette Bombshell is featured as lingerie model encouraging women to love their bodies. Lastly, I was very impressed by how talented Debbie Rochon is behind the camera. Please direct more, Debbie! With 9 wins and 18 nominations, it's obvious that many others loved this film as much as me. A must see for any true horror fan!

A woman who was once a desired model has been long since forgotten and lives by herself. She has a habit of taking young girls into her house and ends up eating them or serving them in dishes to the neighbours. A couple move in next door and right away the wife wonders what is going on in that house.Lynn Lowry plays the older lady. I met her and she is the nicest person you could ever meet so that personality is how she coaxes her prey into the house and then she does a 180 and starts cutting off your genitalia. She does an amazing job in this one. Tiffany Shepis plays the detective neighbour who has a few issues of her own. I enjoyed this one and liked the way it tells people to be yourself.

Former pin-up model and actress Ginny (Lynn Lowry) had been cast aside by the heartless and exploitative modeling industry when she was a young woman due to her body type. Ginny didn't take rejection well and over the years developed into a revenge seeking, blood thirsty, broken woman.Scott Hallam praises star Lynn Lowry, noting that she "literally has to serve up equal parts frail old woman, sexy temptress, good Samaritan, and bat-(expletive) crazy killer all while offering some really thought-provoking dialogue about what true beauty is and what type of beauty is valued by society. Lowry absolutely crushes it in every aspect of her character." Hallam is right, and those who are saying that Lowry has given one of the best performances of her career are correct.Dave Dubrow, usually a champion of independent film, describes this one as "Muddy in theme, terrible in script, and inconsistent in performance, the movie failed to rise above the shoestring production quality." He also (correctly) points out the excessive profanity, shaky camera and often out-of-focus scenes. (By no means am I anti-profanity, but there were far more f-bombs than anyone could ever naturally use in one sentence.) I have to say that the camera was really what killed this film. The casting is great, the acting ranges between adequate and excellent (some actors were more invested than others), and the concept is clever. But everything just looks horrible – too bright, too dark, too jittery. When you have one of the goddesses of the silver screen, Tiffany Shepis, and you find a way to make her look unflattering, you know your camera is garbage.Despite its shortcomings, the disc may be worth picking up if you're a fan of any of those involved. The special features alone are a good draw. The DVD from Wild Eye Releasing includes a feature-length commentary with director Debbie Rochon, deleted scenes, a Babette Bombshell short, Voltaire interview and much more.
