Severe Injuries

This was a great film. It parodies every slasher flick ever done and it does it intelligently. The movie follows a hapless serial killer who like the rest of his family is completely inept. He vows to his dying father (who he accidentally electrocutes) to do the family name proud. We are off to the most brain dead sorority house in the world with equally dumb boyfriends serving themselves up to our hapless hero/killer. Amy Lynn Best and Lilith Stabs are the only 2 people there who aren't missing several pounds of gray matter between their ears. There are so many parodies that I couldn't even begin to list them but one of my favorites is that all of girls are commanded by their Fem Lib professor (played by Debbie Rochon) to deny their sexual urges and not give in to the tyrannical patriarchy of the penis (actual quote). If you want to see a real fun movie just go to Happy Cloud pictures and get it. I know I didn't regret it.

I got this movie because I saw that Debbie Rochon & Lilith Stabs were in it. I figured with these two names it would at least deserve a look. I did not know that Deb was merely doing a small cameo part. I have seen Lilith Stabs in Vampire Call Girls, Demomatrix and Vampire Catholic Schoolgirls from Hell. The director of these productions gave her scripts that enabled her to demonstrate her highly erotic capabilities & brought her goth style & glamour to the attention of b fans & directors. Her role in this as house slut does not give her any opportunity to show her erotic style & talent. If you want to see a group of the plainest girls & lamest guys in a movie then get this one. Debbie & Lilith need to be much more picky about the productions they take part in. They deserve much better than this.

"Severe Injuries" pretty much establishes Amy Lynn Best as a totally professional (and clever) force in the Low-budget film world. Charlie Fleming has his best role as the inept would-be killer, and Jasi Cotton Lanier's bits are very funny.

Film is also top notch in all technical aspects and contains a surprise appearance by an actress in what could be one of her most memorable appearances ever.

Like "The Resurrection Game", this Happy Cloud Productions effort has a lot of surprise touches. Indie Film legend Debbie Rochon even shows up! Think the DVD may come with the short subject "Were-Girll" with Jasi Cotton Lanier, which was Best' first effort and also very funny.

I just finished watching this movie and I am very disappointed.

The explanation: The story is actually good! Very good and very funny. It seems like a parody to all the similar "horrors". But the actors were mostly awful. And everything else was awful to.. for example: when the cat jumps through the window, we actually see a hand which has pushed the cat through it. Also the blond actress has too much powder on..her face is a lot darker than the rest of her body and you can also see a line between dark and bright skin. I feel I could tape this film with my own camera...so,everything was bad except the story herself. I think they should have left direction and production of this film to someone who is better in it, because it could be a hit,you know...

I look at the negative posts on this site for the film Sever Injuries and have to wonder what these people were thinking. Okay, sure there's no nudity in it, but that's okay. The jokes are good, the laughs are aplenty and the women come in all shapes and sizes instead of the Hollywood cookie cutter syndrome. Not all men like the exact same woman, get with it people. Plus, my favorite, stand out moment was the parody of Scream where the guy explains how to survive a chick flick. Debbie Rochon came across as a psycho madwoman which was pretty funny. The idea of a serial killer who comes from a long line of wanna be serial killers is pretty funny as well. And for the one person who said there was no gore in the flick. Did you actually watch it. There's a huge, well done aftermath of a slaughter sequence at the end of the film which pays homage to most slasher flicks that used the same device in hundreds of films. Peopl who have no tolerance for micro budget film making really deserve the mountain of dreck that Hollywood foists upon them year after year. Severe Injuries is a great addition to the horror comedy genre.
