BEAUTY QUEEN BUTCHER - mini Cultcuts review

Under discussion:

Picture Brian DePalma’s Carrie being shot on video by some amateur with the reject cast of Saved By The Bell, and that about best describes Beauty Queen Butcher. Overweight and clumsy Phyliss Loden is tricked into the local high school beauty pageant as a joke. She doesn’t understand why, but her only friend outside of her cat talks her into going through with it. When the beauty pageant coordinator (a guy in drag no less) gets wind of it, she talks the other contestants into tormenting her to get her to quit. When they kill her cat and comes in last place, she goes psycho and starts knocking off one beauty at a time working her way up the beauty queen ladder. Will she make it to the top? I wanted her to so the movie would be over. An okay slasher premise with horrible acting and production values, this almost bloodless film doesn’t have much to recommend it to genre fans. Obviously meant to be humorous, the jokes are there, but the laughs are not. Whether or not I could recommend some of the other titles by Camp Motion Pictures, I could say I enjoyed them on at least an entertaining level except for Splatter Farm and now this exercise in tedium. Don’t vote on this dud, there’s nothing to win here.
