Satan's baby doll is surprisingly dull













Nearing the end on my Shameless marathon and I must say the last five movies have been a bit of a let down (The Bronx movies and those two from Sirpa Lane). Unfortunately this one continues on the same track as the Lane movies. The idea is that after Maria's (Marina Hedman) death her spirit posesses her daughter Miria (Jacqueline Dupre) who then goes about to avenge her mother's death. The plot is thin to say the least but it's merely an excuse for showing some skin. And about the skin, maybe it's because I watched three of these in a row, but the sex scenes were just dull. For a movie like this that's most certainly not a good thing. At parts the movie tries to build some tension and suspense, but most of the time it just ends in stupidity. The score was annoying as hell and it's played so often that I was ready to turn off the volume completely. Wouldn't have mattered that much as pretty much everything anyone says in this movie is just time filling text book nonsense. I must give it some credit for trying to create a creepy atmosphere and for the efforts of building tension, but still it's a bad movie.
