"Nightmare Sisters" is a harmless, enjoyable b-movie which is more sex comedy than horror. I don't think it's even intended to be scary, and there is very little violence, but a lot of nudity and humour.
The movie gets off to a shaky start with an obviously Caucasian man playing an Indian fortune teller, and doing the worst Indian accent since Peter Sellers. Why would a fortune teller be Indian, anyway? Somehow the crystal ball gets possessed, and then finds its way into the hands of three dorky sorority sisters.
These three are played by the holy trinity of b-movie scream queens, Linnea Quigley, Michelle Bauer and Brinke Stevens. They begin the movie as stereotypically unattractive college co-eds. Brinke has borrowed Jeffrey Dahmer's glasses, Michelle Bauer is dressed up to look fat, and Linnea Quigley is wearing false buck teeth which actually only accentuate her beauty. Detractors might claim that we're only fans of Quigley, Stevens and Bauer because they're hot and get naked. This movie, along with most of their movies, showcases the charisma and talent they actually brought to the screen. Their portrayals here are funny and likable.
Their nerdy male counterparts come over for a party and the girls are possessed when they use the crystal ball in a séance (don't seances require Ouija boards?) At first the girls turn sexy - and semi naked - but then they get a touch demonic, and a hilarious exorcist arrives to save the day.
David DeCoteau seems to me to be a rarity among b-film makers. Going by any of his recent efforts, a strong case could be made that he is the worst filmmaker who ever lived. However, watching his '80s films like this one, one realises that he actually had some degree of know-how when he started out. I mean, obviously this isn't Citizen Kane, but it's actually pretty good. Now, his movies are just excuses to indulge in his tighty whitie fetish. Who keeps paying him to make movies? Who keeps watching them?

Nightmare Sisters isn't bursting with snazzy camerawork or sparkling dialogue, but the actors seem committed and go for broke. It's fairly amusing actually.
Linnea Quigley, Michelle Bauer, and Brinke Stevens play three college nerds who end up getting possessed by a wicked sex demon and turn into deadly vixens, seducing and killing a bunch of eligible guys.
It's stupid. It's SO stupid. But it's way more fun than you'd think it would be. There's not a lot of style and it was obviously shot with a super small budget ($40,000? Wow!), but the creators know how to keep us entertained and interested throughout.
Nightmare Sisters won't be for your more stuffy or pretentious friends, but it'll make for a great drunken party movie or a late night slice of cheese.

Nightmare Sisters is a lesser known horror title from David De Coteau who's mostly been known for his homoerotic horror films from the last decade. In this, he gives scream queens Linnea Quigley, Brinke Stevens, and Michelle Bauer some of their most interesting roles to date.
They play three pathetically dorky girls who summon an evil spirit during a seance and turn into sexy sirens who seduce and murder several dumb jocks. It's a really simple premise executed as well as can be expected with the limited resources available.

I waited 31 years to watch this but say it's better late than never. This was way better than I was expecting and I find it shocking that according to the IMDB trivia it was shot in only four days. The cast seemed very prepared and lucid in their characters. The writing and comedy was a better delivery than I was expecting. and the scene where our famous beloved Scream Queens transform, was everything and more than what I wanted it to be. It was a delight to watch and lives up to the hype. Linnea, Brinke, and Michelle were very funny in these characters and their transformation was quite cool and clever. If you are a fan of these ladies and for some reason put this movie off for as long as I did, I caught the full film on youtube and was not disappointed. I only wanted to kick myself for waiting a lifetime before watching. It surprised me how well made it was, and fun. I expected a no budget grainy mess but was instead shocked to find how cohesive and prepared the whole thing was. Well done to DeCoteau, and it is an absolute pleasure to see Linnea Brinke and Michelle in this classic amusing 3some. They should have done way more movies together. Lives up to the hype. <3
Melody,Marci and Mickey are three geeky and unpopular college girls who can't get a date.One night,they invite three geeky college guys over and have a seance that results in the girls becoming possessed by a succubus and turning into sex starved vamps.The madness ensues...The plot of "Nightmare Sisters" is mainly an excuse to show tons of nudity provided by three American Scream Queens Linnea Quigley,Michelle Bauer and Brinke Stevens.This film is impossible to take seriously as it's loaded with corny dialogs and cheap special effects.The acting is rather atrocious,but you'll laugh until it hurts with this one.So invite some friends,drink tons of beer and enjoy this amusing little horror flick.7 out of 10.
