This movie is just plain bad and weird it's also boring! The main character has issues with men abusing her so instead of getting help she kills other men. The movie feels like a BDSM exploit and it's bizarre!

Shannon (Deborah Dutch), who runs an escort service from what I gather, is the lead suspect in a string of murders of women abusers (it doesn't help matters that she killed her abusive husband long ago) and it's up to an undercover cop to get to the bottom of it. This film is just outright awful. Hienous acting, a needlessly nonsense plot, and the movie goes nowhere VERY slowly. Tedious enough to almost cure my insomnia but kill my braincells in the process. The film is also endlessly padded with dance sequences and awful music which only serves to prolong the extreme displeasure of anyone foolhardy enough to attempt to watch this travesty.Also it's quite possibly the most unerotic 'erotic thriller' this side of Basic Instinct 2 (but somehow worse, believe it or not)

My Grade: F

First of all, I never originally intended on getting this movie. I was ordering Tales from the Crapper on the Troma website and they had an offer where you could choose between 5 DVDs to receive free with your order of TFTC. I actually requested that they send me Dr. Hackenstein, but I guess it was out of stock or something because they sent me this instead. I didn't really care because it was free and I didn't really even want to see Dr. Hackenstein anyway, it just looked like the least worst of my possible selections.

Now I know some of you are probably skeptical about my "worst movie ever" claim. You probably think I just don't see that many B-movies. But believe me, I have seen some crap in my day. And no matter how much I hate a movie, I always try to tough it out to the end. And I have always been successful. That is, of course, until I saw Death Dancers. And this is coming from a guy who made it all the way through Croaked: Frog Monster from Hell.

This first time I tried to watch Death Dancers, I didn't even make it two minutes in. I didn't want to, but I just had to turn it off. The next day I realized how foolish it was of me to give up on it after only two minutes. Sure, it was the worst two minutes of a movie I've ever watched, but it could get better. Maybe. So I decided to give it another go, this time making it eight whole torturous minutes in. Wow. I could not believe how horrible of a movie this was. I have always prided myself on the ability to sit through some of the worst movies on the planet, but it looked like this movie had me beat. But about a month later I decided that I would watch it and that no matter how horrible it was I would not turn it off. I was determined. This time I made it about 20 some odd minutes in and I gave up. I threw it in my closet and just decided to accept defeat.

About a year later I was still not too happy with the fact that I owned a movie that I was unable to watch all the way through. But one day I came up with a plan. I would watch the whole thing over a period of a few days. The movie had six chapters so I decided that would be fine. I would watch one chapter a day for six days. And well, the whole movie was just as bad as the first 20 minutes led me to believe. It was sort of like a soft core porno disguised as a horror film, but it felt more like a soap opera with worse acting. And the plot, well I don't really remember the plot. Something about an evil porn director or some other such nonsense. I was sort of trying not to pay attention. But anyway, I guess what I'm really trying to say with this review is DO NOT WATCH DEATH DANCERS!
