Excellent, a Must See

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Nightmare Sisters (1988)** 1/2 (out of 4)Linnea Quigley, Brinke Stevens and Michelle Bauer play ugly sorority sisters who are bored one night so they invite over three nerdy guys. As the lame party is winding down they decide to have a séance, which turns the three girls into real beauties looking for sex but they've also become deadly.NIGHTMARE SISTERS is exactly the type of gold teenage males were hoping for back in the VHS boom days. If you're looking for high art or something that was nominated for an Oscar then you're going to be extremely disappointed. If you're wanting some cheap trashy fun with three beautiful women getting naked then you've come to the right movie.The Scream Queen legends are in high form here as all three are extremely good in their roles. I thought they were each hilarious early on when we see them in their alternative looks. Quigley steals the film as a buck-tooth nerd. Stevens plays the nerd with big glasses and Bauer is the obese one. All of them are clearly having fun here but they get even better once they turn into the sexual goddesses. Yes, all three are naked throughout including a very memorable sequence where they're in the tub together.Director David DeCoteau is obviously having a lot of fun with the material and for the most part this is a complete winner. The thing eventually runs out of gas during the final portion of the picture but this is still one of the better titles to come out of the 80s. Fans of the three Scream Queens will certainly want to check this one out.

Out of the hundreds (maybe even thousands!) of actresses out there who try to claim the title "Scream Queen," Linnea Quigley, Michelle Bauer and Brinke Stevens are probably the best. How else can you explain how their mere presence enables you to sit through something as horrid, as plot less and as pointless as Nightmare Sisters? Don't get me wrong, this movie is horrible in almost every way and is really an insult to horror movie fans everywhere. But I gave it a "5" anyway and that's only because of the three leading ladies and their ability to enliven even the most atrocious film. They get to goof off here at the beginning (there's one incredibly amateurish unbroken 'talking' shot that lasts about 10 minutes) and then basically spend the rest of the film running around naked after they are possessed by a demon. There's also a long drawn-out nude bathtub scene, but watching the girls just sitting there giggling, splashing water and looking like they are having a great time rubs off on the viewer and becomes enjoyable. It's a much sexier and more natural scene than what we B-movie fans would later encounter in Skinamax porn - you know long, dead serious, fake-looking, awkward simu-sex. So if you love Linnea, Michelle and/or Brinke, this makes a nice addition to your DVD collection. Otherwise it will be one of the most grueling viewing experiences you will ever encounter.

*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*I just bought this DVD. Quigley, Bauer and Brinke. Does any more really need to be said? You have the three mega babes together again for another naked party. Tears of joy rolled down my face."Nightmare Sisters" starts off with the three of them all alone at the sorority house for the weekend. They are all geeks who can't get any guys to go out with them. Hard to believe I know. I didn't recognize Quigley for a second. Her character had buckteeth and sang off-key. Bauer's character was fat and eating like a pig. As strange as it may sound, they were acting! "Nightmare Sisters" threw me for a loop at the beginning of the flick. Where were the babes?My fears were soon vanquished. While playing around with a crystal ball, a succubus transforms them into sex-crazed demons. This transformation blasts their clothes off. WOO-HOO! The movie improves significantly from this point. The succubus did a good job. Bauer has the Amazon body, Brinke has the innocent girl routine, and Quigley has the Quigley routine. I love all three of them. If I had to choose, I'd go for Bauer. Even if she were a succubus, it would have to be Bauer. It's all about Bauer... Sorry. I'm babbling on. Bauer babbling. Bauer.... mmmmmm....Soon the girls will play around with a cake and have to take a bubble bath. The bubble bath scene is one of the greatest in exploitation movie history. When they rub their breasts, the soundtrack gives off a loud squeaking sound. Classic. The sound effects make half the movie. The other half is the massive amount of Scream Queen nudity.If the idea of seeing these three women take a bath together excites you, (and it better or else you are clinically dead), get this DVD immediately. There is plenty of nudity to satisfy your B-movie craving. Good flick.

A trio of nerdy sorority sisters (Linnea Quigley, Brink Stevens, and Michelle Bauer) are possessed by Succubi while holding a séance with 3 fellow geeky guys. OK, how can you go wrong with no less then 3 Scream Queens in the flick? Funnily enough easily. First of all, the action doesn't even begin to start until about 30 minutes in, that alone wouldn't be cause for alarm, but this is an 80-minute B-movie, so that's more then 1/3rd of the film dedicated to lameness.True the girls remain topless for a good deal of the remaining film, but, aside from a good lengthy bubble bath scene, nothing you can't see in any other of their respective movies. Films that don't almost put you to sleep in the first half hour. Which leaves the acting and humor to keep this flick alive. The acting...well heh, let's move onto the humor. The humor is extremely cornball. Skip this one.My Grade: DDVD Extras: blooper reel; 3 stills galleries (dedicated to each of the 3 scream queens in various states of undress); Director & producer commentary;a second commentary (this time with Brink Stevens, Michelle Bauer, and Richard Gabai)
