DVD Review: Wally and Eddie find The Beaver.
Summary: 4 Stars
Deadgirl is a modest budgeted oddity that is held together almost entirely by its rather unwholesome premise. In a nutshell, you have these two highschool misfits who cut class one day, and mess around in the local neighborhood abandoned insane asylum. Every neighborhood has one of these I suppose. Rickie, the Wally Cleaver of this dynamic duo, is the lovesick loser down on his luck type. He's a sullen character who rarely smiles and is continually burdened by his pesky conscience. JT, our Eddie Haskell, has no conscience to speak of, and one quickly gets the feeling that a stiff breeze could push this character over the edge into total wickedness. Just like some kind of urban folklore legend, the pals encounter the dreaded black dog, symbolic in the old country of famine and death. Fleeing from this mongrel is of course what leads them to the real discovery in the basement. It is there that they find a beautiful naked woman lying on her back on a metal table, securely fascened to it by her wrists and ankles. Even more interestingly, she is also incased within a thick clear plastic bag. I think that the creators of this story must of seen the documentary on realistic female silicone love dolls used as substitutes for actual women, because this living dead girl looked like she was all packaged and ready for immediate shipping. It is here that our pals have their conflict. Good old Wally Cleaver wants to notify authorities immediately, and Eddie Haskell wants to keep this nude female zombie as his own personal blow up doll. So JT punches his sulking pal in the face, and Rickie leaves dejected.
Though there are a few intriguing moments amoungst the none-zombie members of the cast, most of their behavior, and most of the drama for that matter, are blatantly stereotypical. For example, since JT is the bad egg in a film who's very premise is teetering on NC-17 anyway, his language is naturally peppered with F-Bombs. He also has to shoulder one of the biggest problems of the plot. The audience already knows that the dead girl is a zombie, but JT has to explain it to Rickie right in front of us anyway. In a vein attempt to comb over this tedious task, the story calls for JT to shoot the zombie in the belly. It comes across as an unnecessary empty gesture. Ultimately, all he did was damage the pristine condition of his sex toy to prove a point.
Wheeler the Squealer.
Then there is the whole thing with Johnny the jock. He is a chisiled jawed muscle bound jerk who's sole purpose for being in the film is for us to hate his guts. To help us hate him even more, he is also shown dating the girl that our long suffering protagonist Rickie is hopelessly in love with. Since Rickie can't keep his eyes off this girl, Johnny the Jock beat him and Rickie's annoying side kick Wheeler up in the school parking lot. The beating borders on attempted murder and is further confounded when Wheeler squeals about the existence of Deadgirl to Johnny. Johnny chooses to take Wheeler on face value, so he commits his second felony of the afternoon, right in front of student onlookers and bus drivers. He kidnaps Wheeler and Ricky by tossing them into the trunk of his car. Even Rickie's love interest is there to see these two crimes take place, but like everyone else who's watching, she does little to stop these felonies, and takes no action to inform the authorities. This whole sequence of events just doesn't work at all, but at least we get to see Johnny get his privates gnawed on by Deadgirl, and his intestines come out his hind parts in the school toilet. None of these events can withstand even the slightest penlight of logic, but it sure is a blast to watch Johnny's demise frame by frame by pressing the pause and fast forward buttons.
Even though the outcome of this film has been foretold a million times over in a million different movies before it, there are still enough things that stand out to make Deadgirl worthwhile. JT is played brilliantly by Noah Segan who seemed to relish in that roll and fill it with a dominating demented presence. It was also a great technical choice to show the gradual yet rapid decay of Deadgirl herself. At first she was almost hot as she arched her back and stretched out her naked torso and ribcage in front of the letcherous eye of the leering camera, but by the end, you didn't want to go anywhere near her. Towards the end of the film, her skin seemed to glisten with the greenish oily residue of her dank crusty basement surroundings. The make up effects where very effective, not just with the blood and decay of Deadgirl, but also with the horrible looking wound she inflicted upon JT's face. It really did look like his upper palate had been eaten off. I also loved the sickly sinister idea JT had of replacing the rabidly decaying body of Deadgirl with some fresh new meat. Since Deadgirl was turning sour, his vile idea was to capture some young hot sweetie and have Deadgirl take a bite out of her. This would infect Deadgirls replacement into become his new and improved zombie sex slave. Of course even a total simpleton has to know that this means Rickie's love interest, but even that shouldn't matter. With a premise like the one in Deadgirl, it's the thought that counts.
3.5 stars.
Lessons learned from watching this feature:
1) If you decide to own your own sex doll, keep it in a cleaner place then the grungy basement of an abandoned insane asylum.
2) Keep the existence of your sex doll to yourself.
3) Being rough with a zombie sex slave greatly enhances ones ability to eat corn on the cob.
