This is a pretty forgettable movie from the start, really. The movie tries to make them threatening through their brutality, but it just didn't really work for me. I'm not exactly sure why, but it might have something to do with the performances.
The movie has a surprising amount of plot to it, and the story continues beyond the point where you might expect it to end. Again, it doesn't really work for me. It's just not all that interesting.
This movie is definitely watchable, but it is very forgettable. Its attempts at becoming sort of a legal thriller really don't work. And the actual ending is embarrassing; there's no way around that.

This is clearly a B-Movie, and for people who love a certain kind of bad horror film, this is really great. The actors clearly had fun with their roles too, which I think added to the fun and the charm this film had. The acting wasn't the best, but nothing felt stiff or awkward.
Like the humour is obviously dark, but honestly it was a fun horror comedy that didn't take itself too seriously.
The plot was basic, but honestly satisfying, like you really rooted for the lead character, and her murder spree. So it's not going to be the best film you will see, but if its the kind of thing you'd go for. I think you'd have a lot of fun with.

What in the world did I just watch. Elizabeth Chamberlain is Midred, a young lady with a long nose which might be the worst make-up job that I have ever seen. It seems to be made out of a piece of rubber glued onto the face of the actress.
Mildred is mocked at work and at a local bar by patrons and her self esteem is brought to a breaking point which drives her to take revenge on everyone who has wronged her.
Axes, scissors, knives, pool cues and whatever object is available are used to maim and kill her enemies for the length of the film.
The acting is at a porn movie level and only a few of the funny lines work. At least Ms. Chamberlain is likeable but as for the rest of the cast, forget it.

Mildred Moyer can't literally buy a break in life. She searches out a very very inexpensive doctor to fix her Pinocchio like nose. Surgery unfortunately doesn't go very well. Mildred's new look sends her into a state of revenge on all those that had mocked her looks. The storyline then goes completely bonkers. The gore is over the top. Pays many a homage to many horror classics (see if you can keep track). Well worth a watch. Elizabeth Chamberlain fits the role perfectly. Although being low budget I was highly entertained. This is a must watch if your a fan of horror comedy with lots of blood thrown.
I went into this with little to no expectations, but I had a fantastic time. It reminds me of something I'd write when I was 14, but I mean that in a positive way. It's so silly and so fun to watch. Mildred is an amazing main character, you root for her because everyone else is so awful and she's got some great lines and delivery. There are a few lines that are a bit cringe ("hello cruel world!") but for the most part this has good, snappy writing. I love the nonchalant reactions everyone has to her killing people, especially at the end. And for having a lower budget, I think it looks pretty good too! A lot of the shots and sets give off a nice atmosphere. The kills were so over the top I couldn't help but laugh, this whole thing is so camp. My only complaint is that I wish we could've seen Mildred kill those gangsters who botched her surgery. That felt like a weird add-on, especially when it was never addressed again. But overall, I loved it. Not a movie for everyone, but definitely a movie for me.
