Dead Hooker Hits Carl Sykes' Alternative Film Review

                       

Carl Sykes watches a lot of movies. Like a shit ton of movies. So, we were thrilled that our rotting, festering baby girl, our first-born, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK made her sassy way onto his screen. What did he think? Did the dead whore hit the spot? Well...

                       
"The film is a breath of fresh air in its originality; it sheds all genre clichés to offer an unpredictable, and for the most part entertaining ride. It's original ideas like this that sadly often get overlooked by film fans in place of the run-of-the-mill movies pumped out by the studio system, but if you take a chance on a little independent flick once in a while, you'll find a polished jewel amongst the dog turds."
                              

Fucking yes, shit fuck crap, YES! The flick was a labor of love by a group of talented folks that came together for nothing to make its proposed insanity a reality. Click here for the whole piece and take a boo around for other reviews - you might find some gems that you haven't even heard of before!

Das Dead Hooker is Good, Ya?


Do you speak German? Yes? Wicked then you won't need this translator to help you read this. HorrorPilot was kind enough to look in their trunk and take a look at our Canuxploitation flick, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK and here's a little chunk of what they had to say --


"Wenn man sich ein wenig intensiver mit Indie-Horrorfilmen beschäftigt, so wie es unsere Redaktion tagtäglich macht, dann hat man des Öfteren das ein oder andere, interessante Filmchen auf dem Schirm. So war es auch bei DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. Der Film von den beiden “Twisted Twins” Jen und Sylvia Soska wurde schon auf einigen Festivals im Ausland gezeigt und ist mittlerweile in den USA und in England erschienen. Die Schwestern haben den Film durch ihre eigene Produktionsfirma “Twisted Twins Productions” produziert und gedreht wurde in Kanada. Selbst Eli Roth war begeistert von dem Film und so müssen wir euch diesen natürlich vorstellen."

I know hookers get around (I know, obvious joke - I'm very tired, forgive me) but to have seen our flick travel around the world to so many places to have a fucking wicked awesome review in German - thank you to Cat la Belle for taking the time to check out the film and sending me the review - is a very cool thing. Read the whole piece here.

Our greatest ambition in making this film was that people would watch it and enjoy it - and we have received that in abundance. Thank you for your support to everyone who have brought DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK into their lives and shared that HOOKER with others.

Forces of Geek has Fun with Dead Hooker

“In a really f-cked up way, this is probably the most fun I’ve ever had...” -Geek
I am a geek. I will absolutely admit it, but like animals in the wild, my appearance somewhat disguises my entire nerdism to protect me from predators. Naw, I just like decorating the shit out of things. That said, fellow geeks can recognize their own kind and I believe the most obvious place to see that nerviness would be to watch our work. Forces of Geek was kind enough to take a boo in the trunk and here's what they had to say --

"It plays out almost like a twisted buddy comedy or a road movie made by Ted Bundy and Eli Roth. This is where the macabre humour of the twins feels right at home, with panic, violence and missing limbs the order of the day as the mayhem just gets completely out of control."
Thank you very kindly, Forces of Geek. And --
"Cast-wise, the actors are surprisingly competent."
Fuck yes! Another thank you kindly, Forces of Geek.
"So despite (Or perhaps because of) its unusual title and the fact that it is endorsed by cinema lunatic Eli Roth, Dead Hooker in a Trunk provides fine amounts of intrigue, chasing, panic, plot and enough gratuitous swearing and Grindhouse violence to keep you entertained from start to finish. But what if it doesn’t give you at least some satisfaction, or leaves you wishing it weren’t so shallow?
 Just look at the title."

You can eat up the whole delicious piece here. And a huge thank you to everyone who is checking out the flick, pimping it out to their friends, tuning into the tv screenings, and buying the DVD - you are giving this indie horror a life it could have never known without your support.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts very humbly. People in the horror community are the best on the fucking planet!

From Canada To Fuck Your Shit Up Old School Again


B. Fatt & Lazy Movie Reviews is a site with comedic and rad reviewers that get to the bottom of DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. B. Fatt was kind enough to check out the flick and share his thoughts --
"What can be said about DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK? It is the best title for a movie since HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN. It is a ninety minute drug fueled ride through anarchy and insanity. It has already filled out the paperwork to be inducted into the cult classic hall of fame. It is bad fucking ass."
The following includes one of the best sentences that I have ever heard in my life --
"I’m not sure if DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK is genius or madness but it is a very thin line, my friends. It’s a very thin line. All I know is I didn’t exit the theater at the end of this movie so much as I used my rock hard cock as a battering ram to smash through the drywall and cinder blocks."

As if this wasn't enough to make a pair of good ole Canadian girls feel special, there was also these kind words --
"DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK is the worst movie I’ll ever love. And I’m pretty sure I’m going to marry one of the Soska sisters. Possibly both. Maybe at the same time. I’ll have to wait to see how down they are. But I know for a fact that there are new queens of trash cinema. And their names are Jen and Sylvia Soska."

A very humble thank you to B.Fatt for watching the flick and for sharing in our 90 minutes of insanity. We super stoked that you dug the flick and hope that you come back for the new one. Maybe after AMERICAN MARY if you still wanna get hitched...

You can read the whole loltastic review here. Thank you for reading the blog, boys and girls! Sorry to be so MIA, lots of new stuff coming up in the next few weeks.

Film Deviant Gets More Deviant With Dead Hooker

The Soska sisters have created a gory fucking blasty blast of a film.



Film Deviant is a very wicked cool horror review site that we came to know by one of their sweet writers, Bryan Martinez. These folks love horror - there is a shit ton of reviews on their site for every horror flick you love and many independents that you might have never even heard of. Looking for a new site to get you gore load on? Well, Film Deviant just might be what the doctor ordered - you can check their glossary of horror flicks here and interviews here.


So, Bryan took DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK home to watch with a group of friends the other night. What was the verdict? Did our dead girl manage to handle a large group without disappointing? She is dead after all.
"The Soska Sisters (aka Twisted Twins...because, well, they're twins and they film twisted things) are a fresh breed of filmmakers. In the tradition of Jason Eisner and his Hobo With A Shotgun and Tom Six with his Human Centipede films, Dead Hooker In A Trunk is another great example of filmmaking with the sole intention of letting all the sick and twisted visions out of one's head.

Now, I mentioned the Human Centipede films and Hobo With A Shotgun because that's the kind of thing that Dead Hooker In A Trunk evokes. Films that don't really exist in the scope of a safe society...but, goddamn, they're so much fun to the rest of us. Aren't they? I remember watching Hobo With A Shotgun in a packed midnight theater and that proved to be my favorite movie-going experience of 2011. Well, I recently sat down with a small group of film lovers to watch my new copy of Dead Hooker.

I think that it's important to point out how much I love these kinds of films. I live for dead hookers in trunks and hobos with shotguns and 12-person human centipedes. That's the kind of stuff that flows through my blood. So, while I will rate this film on a technical scale, my final blood score might seem a little biased.
"



Fucking rights! Yay! You can read the whole lovely review here. Spread it around. Get your HOOKER on, heck, check the review, call in your buddies and make it a Canuxploitation night! Thank you to Bryan for watching our film and getting the word out.

The biggest, most large, stupid happy, thank you to everyone who has been supporting this film and making this release the success that it has been. You guys have been phenomenal in giving us the ability to continue making films like this.

Dead Hooker in a Trunk makes Mark's Final Cut


An independent film can only have as much weight as the support of the horror community that checks it out, tells a friend, writes a review, pimps it the fuck out. We have been incredibly fortunate with our first film, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, not only because it has been released, had a television premiere, is available on VOD and DVD, and travelled the world in film festivals, but also because it is still doing that. The word is getting out, people are taking the time to stand by this crass indie, and more people are hearing about the film and checking it out.

I saw this fucking awesome review from Mark Krawczyk and his Final Cut film review show and was stoked to see that he got a chance to check out the flick and really dug it.

"Today we head away from your big budgeted hollywood stinkers and move to the true independent cinema. Today we take a look at the movie with a title you can't go wrong with 'Dead Hooker in a Trunk'."




Huge thank you to Special Mark for taking the time to check out the independents and getting the word out about ours. Very happy that you enjoyed the film, sir. And a very humble thank you to everyone who has been picking up the DVD, renting the flick, getting it on VOD and letting us know what you think.

It's beyond rad to hear from you all and looking very forward to introducing you to the new flick - AMERICAN MARY.

Truly Disturbing's Top 5 Best/Worst of 2011


We twisted twosome are huge fans of the team at Truly Disturbing Horror and what a coincidence as they dig our DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. Kristian Hanson, whom you may know better as the horror comedian whose hand is shoved up those Craptastic Puppets - including Jen's plush boy toy (literally) Assly, wrote his pick for Best 5 and Worst 5 of 2011 and imagine our delight when our dead whore graced its list. Where? Read on, gentle reader --

"4. Dead Hooker In a Trunk- A film made on a shoe string budget by a couple of twins and horror fiends, this is a movie that you need to watch a couple times to make sure you see everything that is added. It is a fun film to watch with friends as the group goes on a trek trying to dispose of a Dead Hooker they found in their trunk. As they do this, they come across drug dealers, a puking Goody Two Shoes and possibly love for two of the stars. Oh, and an amputation of an arm. Twisted good time!"


FUCK YEAH!!! Thank you for this privilege and all the support of our flicks throughout the years. You gentlemen fucking rock hard. Now for the entire sweet ass list - click here and find some flicks that you should check out and some you should avoid like a dirty whore.

Hayes Hudson's House of Hooker

"DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK wins two awards from me. First off, it wins my award for best title ever! Second off, it wins my most unexpectedly enjoyable film of the year. Not to say I didn't think I would like this film, but I just really didn't know much about it and being the Soska Sisters first feature film, I had my concerns. Well, you would never know this was a first feature from the directors. I enjoyed this film more than I thought I would for sure."
- Hayes Hudson, House of Horror


Like the best people on the planet, Hayes has always loved horror (and alliteration for that matter - double cool points) and his fucking fantastic (alliteration) site is there to share that love. It's like two people marrying for love rather than bucks and perks - you can't fake the real thing and it's an absolute pleasure to check his stuff. Yes, I creeped his site - I'm not too much of a creepo to admit it.

When Jen and I came up with the idea for DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, it was a flashy fuck you for (alliteration) the 'film school' that ripped us off and squandered what should have been the budget for our final project. It was a fake trailer in the realm of the multi-collaborative and ridiculously underrated GRINDHOUSE flick which truly was all the film school we needed. That and like every 'Ten Minute Film School' Rodriguez ever made. The excitement over the fake trailer led to excitement for a feature and it was our main priority to make something crazy and fun that you could turn your brain off and laugh like a moron to for 90 minutes. The format - well, we were making a chick road trip flick with a very visible love for the flicks we grew up loving.


"As I stated before, it is very hard to categorize this film. It definitely has a lot of dark comedy elements to it, and reminded me a bit of the (very underrated film in my opinion) VERY BAD THINGS. But don't worry, you gore hounds will have something to enjoy as well, as there is a LOT of blood in this film and some crazy scenes involving a dismembered arm and someone losing an eyeball. That is all I will say about those things, as I don't want to spoil all the surprises for you."


Thank you so kindly to Hayes for taking the time to check out our HOOKER in his house of horror (alliteration) and writing such a cool piece on his thoughts on the flick. VERY BAD THINGS - dude, I love it when the leads get fucked up. Too often they are miraculously unscathed and where's the fun in that? Please clickity click here to the whole piece and see if this HOOKER is for you! (answer: yes it is)

Ravenous Monster's Justin Hamelin DHIAT Review and Twisted Twins Interview

"‘Dead Hooker in a Trunk’ is as faithful a nod to the classic grindhouse films as anything the film community has seen since the 1970s. The title alone should make just about any horror or indie fan grin like a madman (or woman). This movie has everything needed to become a timeless cult classic – gore, foul language, beautiful women, guns, awesome special effects and fight scenes, and hello? A DEAD HOOKER…In a trunk! To say this film has some legit street cred in the industry is a gross understatement. It’s what happens when professionals are approached by dedicated filmmakers with an infectious energy." ~Justin Hamelin, RAVENOUS MONSTER

Ravenous Monster is a fucking cool site.

Officially, Ravenous Monster is a webzine that delivers the latest horror news, reviews, interviews, and analysis. Born of a love for the all mighty horror flick, Ravenous Monster also covers books, comics, music, and games. They seek to expose the bloody best the genre has to offer to the legions of horror fans out there!

And we love that.

Recently we had the pleasure of speaking with one of their brilliant writers, Justin Hamelin. It was our absolute pleasure to speak with him and the interview itself? Well, boys and grrls, let's just say it was epic. It will be coming VERY soon and featured in two delectable portions on Ravenous Monster. And we just can't wait.

But fear not, you won't be waiting long and we, in fact, have a tasty morsel of an appetizer for you all. Justin was not only kind enough to talk the time to chat with us, but he has also reviewed our first born baby, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. The film review is wicked awesome and will get you damn excited for the interview.

"Blood flies at a wonderful rate, the death toll suffices, and the stunts are jaw dropping. The buddy who watched this with me literally applauded following a confrontation between Sylvia’s character and the cowboy pimp. Twists and turns are at every corner and by the time the end credits begin to roll, I am willing to bet you will have a grin from ear to ear on your face, just like I did." ~Justin Hamelin, RAVENOUS MONSTER

I wish we had been there with them.

Enjoy the FULL DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK review RIGHT HERE!!

And thank you most humbly to Justin for taking the time to not only get in touch with us, but to review the film and interview us Twisted Twins. Can't wait for next time.

Bloody Best!

Son of Celluloid Discovers a Strange Smell Coming from the Trunk... and Digs it!

Ok, before I review this movie, which is damn good by the way, I have to rant for a minute first. It’s a tried and true rule in horror cinema, and cinema in general, that if someone stumbles upon a profitable idea, it will be taken, copied endlessly, ridden hard and hung up wet, done to death, and run into the ground. Currently, mainstream, big budget studio horror is riding the tail end (hopefully) of the remake and 3D waves. In indy horror, neo-grindhouse and exploitation flicks are currently all the rage.

At least two thirds of the trailers I’ve seen for low budget, independent “genre” films in the last year have featured either fake film aging or an old school “coming attractions” screen. Tarantino and Rodriguez’s Grindhouse may have been a box office disappointment, but it sure was influential. Actually, maybe a better word would be imitated. Fake age drives me nuts. I think it’s ridiculous to buy brand new t-shirts made to look like you’ve been wearing them for 20 years. You have to earn that vintage look. I feel the same way about the fake film aging. It’s just dumb. It was fine in Grindhouse, because it was unique. That hadn’t been done before. Now everyone and their mothers are making crappy slasher or “exploitation” flicks, artificially aging the digital footage, and calling it a “throwback.”

It can occasionally work as a nod to the genre's heritage, but a little goes a long way folks! Lines, grain, lost reel gags, and that sort of gimmickry is not what draws us to these films. The best neo-grindhouse movie since, well, Grindhouse was Hobo with a Shotgun, and it had none of that. What makes this subgenre special is its spirit. The ideal that nothing is off limits, anyone with an idea can make a movie, and being as outrageous and potentially offensive as possible is the name of the game. It’s the manic energy, DIY aesthetic, and “up yours” to conventional standards of cinema that made these movies special in the 70’s and 80’s, and it’s what makes the good flicks of this new wave exciting.

Which brings me to the flick at hand; Dead Hooker in a Trunk. Dead Hooker in a Trunk doesn’t employ the fake aging, but it is more spiritually akin to the exploitation movies it is inspired by than most I’ve seen.
- Nathan Hamilton, Son of Celluloid

Thank you, fucking eh, I completely agree, and thank you again so kindly. This is the beginning of the fantastically intelligent and knowledgeable piece by the sharp, Nathan Hamilton of Son of Celluloid. It's amazing how GRINDHOUSE - which was wrongfully considered an unsuccessful project - was the force that re-ignited the flame of grindhouse, DIY filmmaking.

But as Nathan explains - it's not the weathered footage or the missing reels that make the flick, it's something deeper, and for it to be successful you need to grab onto that independent, 'we don't have any money, so let's use our brains to make something rad' spirit that will never let you down. But did we, the team that I love who came together to create DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, succeed in our ambitions?

The passion they have for films like this and the fun everyone was having making it is evident. It definitely epitomized the DIY school of filmmaking. They have been tight lipped about what the actual budget was, but in an interview on the Altered Realities podcast they said that you couldn’t buy a used car for what they spent on the flick. For a film this low budget, it looks great. The action scenes and gore are amazingly well done, and it has a definite visual flair.

Everyone puts in a good performance. The four central performers in particular have a great onscreen chemistry and, in a rarity for movies these days, actual character arcs. The story is very creative and unpredictable. It moves along at a breakneck pace that keeps you constantly anticipating just what kind of outrageousness and weirdness they are going to throw your way next. The final line of the film is both a perfect coda to the ride you’ve just been on and a laugh out loud inside joke for lovers of this type of flick. In other words, this movie is just a whole hell of a lot of fun.

Now no more delicious morsels of this fine horror aficionado dining review - you must make your reservations, put on a tie, and prepare for the entire yummy helping here. Also, I think if you look around for a boo or two, you will dig this talented and well versed writer's musings on your favorite bloody flicks.

Thank you so kindly for checking out the film and doing such a thoughtful review on the piece, Nathan! Can't wait to share the new flick, AMERICAN MARY, with you. All of you.

Dead Hooker Is Bat Shit Crazy At Its Best

Some movies start off slow to lure you in, while some just take their time to find their pace. Others, like “Dead Hooker in a Trunk,” just don’t care about a slow beginning because it knows that in about 30 minutes it’s going to own your soul.
- Jason Lees, MoreHorror.com


The team at MoreHorror.com is sensational. A team consisting of people who live and breath the genre - they know their horror from the entrails out and use their vast knowledge not only to get the word out about rad horror flicks in general, but also are full supporters of the independents. Their site is a playground for any horror junkie - click here to get to the site for a full fix.


Just a couple weeks ago we had the lovely Tiffany Farrow release a piece on the IFC Midnight release of DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK. Even before the release, the team at MoreHorror.com was there pimping (pun intended) out the flick and getting the word out about the project --

Just when you thought it was safe to hit the streets and sell your body for money, something like this happens.

This indie horror film is ahead of its time and budget. The Soska Sisters have unleashed a sexy low budget Tarantino flavored flick--filled with blood, humor and gore titled 'Dead Hooker In A Trunk'. If you are a fan of all of the above, don't miss this movie.


It has awesome of awesome to wake up this morning to a fucking wicked review of the flick by Jason Lees of MoreHorror.com. What impression would the independent picture leave on this talented writer?

Dead Hooker in a Trunk is about this dead hooker in a trunk. Sort of. We open with two sisters (the multi titled writer/director/star/producing duo of the Soska Twins, Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska) and a few friends who are just going about their day when they get an odd whiff of something coming from the back of their car. From there, we get drugs, violence, loud LOUD music, and enough cursing to make Quentin Tarantino ears blush. The set up is a bit forced, but looking back at the film now, I’m pretty damn sure it was the Twins psyching the audience out. I think they knew their audience would be expecting something with a title like that so they kept their cards close their chest, so when they flash their hand, damn, it’s shocking.

Yes, the first half hour or so had me wondering what I was in for, with its loopy logic and less than waterproof plotting, but then we get this apartment invasion scene and damn it, it made me a fan in a big way. From that moment to its finale, “Dead Hooker in a Trunk” was calling the shots. Anything it wanted to show me, I’d believe. Someone loses an arm? Yea, I bet they’ll be okay. Someone gets nearly ripped in half? Of course I’ll buy them being fine in the next scene. This may be the Soskas debut feature, but they know how to handle an audience. They lead us through the story and take us right where they want us to go.

-Jason Lees, MoreHorror.com


A night with HOOKER well spent. Mwa ha ha ha. But in all seriousness, this kind of review means the world to us. It's honest, it's intelligent, and it leaves you with a sense of pride - you tend to feel like a hermit after three/four years of working on a film and you aren't sure if what you're going for is going to be what others see in the project. I am stoked that Jason enjoyed the flick - get his full rad write-up here. Thank you for taking the time to watch and review the film and a huge and humble thanks to the entire MoreHorror.com team for supporting this flick and so many other independents.


Thank you for reading, girls and boys! Please enjoy the review and please share DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK with your cool friends. May it give you 92 minutes of bat shit crazy fun!

Dead Hooker in the House of Vyle


A few weeks ago I had a chance to see a movie that had been on My "to watch" list, Dead Hooker In A Trunk. Yes, for those of you who have not heard of this film it probably sounds like it should be paired up as a grindhouse double feature with Hobo With A Shotgun, and yeah in all reality it probably should. This is the vision and debut film of Jen and Sylvia Soska, a pair of twins from Canada who are crafty, creative, sexy and definately twisted, as their Twisted Twins production company with a logo that is a pair of small "t's" which look like gravestones would imply.

Now I love independent films. even the really bad ones and especially off the wall ones. For those unaware before Peter Jackson began putting out Lord Of The Rings, and Sami Rami began making Spider-Man films that they had both churned out outrageous splatterfest like Brain Dead, Bad Taste and the Evil Dead Trilogy. So if Dead Hooker In A Trunk seems a little off the wall, wild and wierd, remember that some of the biggest names in movies started out the same way.




This is an excerpt from a recent review of DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK as done by Master Vyle of House Of Master Vyle which is a pretty fucking cool blog with oodles of fun stuff to read about, but be aware that it has material of an adult nature, so if you're an adult and want to check out some fun 18 + fun (see above blerb) click here to get to the site - and you're welcome!


It is a very cool to this filmmaker that Master Vyle took the time to check out the flick and write such a nice thorough and thoughtful review of the piece. If you've been hearing about the film, but aren't sure whether it's for you (it is) please allow Master Vyle's awesome words bring you to our side --

If you like off the wall films like Bad Taste and Pink Flamingos then Dead Hooker In A Trunk is right up your alley. It's one of those movies you have to see to appericiate, but in My opinion it doesn't fall into that "so bad" it has to be seen to be appericiated films category, becuase in the end for all its cheesiness and lack of logic Dead Hooker In A Trunk is a great film. In fact I even told the Soskas if I was ever in an accident and lost a limb I hoped it happened in Canada, where it appears they're doing miricales with reattachments.


Click here for the entire piece and get acquainted with our HOOKER (cheeky)! Thank you to everyone who has been watching the film and getting the word out about the project.

Highly Recommended Hooker By Noel


I just found this on review by a very lovely gentleman named Noel Thingvall who is the Co-host, with the equally lovely Eviey aka Evelina Burke, of @hateloveremakes (for you twitterers) or you can go to http://www.ihateloveremakes.com, you can also check out his rad blog here.


I started listening to this review, then I stopped, and started it again with Jen and CJ to check it out too. I'm incredibly touched by this review - it was thoughtful, intelligent, thorough - it's obviously from Noel turn of phrase and confidence in speaking about the genre that he is a true horror aficionado and it is a sincere honor to have had him check out the film and share his thoughts.



If you haven't seen the flick, are thinking about checking it out but don't know what to expect, please watch this brilliant review (above as well) on the flick as Noel has expertly captured the heart of the film. Thank you for your thoughts on DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, sir!


Thank you to all the girls and boys that have been making this big release a success.

Cool Hooker Luke


There are few words that actually an put the feeling into text of having DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK not only released in the UK & Australia - courtesy of Bounty Films, released on VOD with a limited theatrical release in the US & Canada - courtesy of IFC Midnight, and now on television - courtesy of The Horror Channel. It's enough to keep these filmmakers feeling extremely humbled by the outpour of kindness, support, and enjoyment of the flick.


It makes our life to hear what people have to say about the project. It was a great ambition of ours to make a project that was fun to watch and completely insane - to know that we hit the mark means the world to us. The flick hit the Horror Channel this past July 29th and I was stoked to see that this lovely horror-loving gentleman took the time to check it out --

Hi, I'm Luke.
I'm 29 and live somewhere in Suffolk, UK.
I now use this channel to talk about movies.
I films from all genres and times, and just want to see the best I can find.
But... I LOVE horror and exploitation.
Please comment on videos, cause thats why I do this; to chat about film.
Thanks for watching :)


Thank you, Luke, for watching! Great reviews. What did Luke have to say about our HOOKER? --



From the bottom of our twisted black hearts, thank you for watching and reviewing. Thank you for watching the film, hearing our story, and pimping our HOOKER. This review made me smile - thank you for taking the time to watch it.


HOOKER hits the The Horror Channel again tonight with a special intro from the sinfully sensational, Emily Booth, via The Horror Booth! Please spend tonight in with our dead whore with your friends - you won't regret it.

A Touching Moment with Assly & the Craptastic Writer

In collaboration with Anythinghorror.com and CraptasticHorror.com Assly reviews The Canadian Indy Film Dead Hooker In A Trunk. It is honestly a fun movie and the Twisted Twins Jen and Sylvia Soska are amazing along with CJ Wallis who is hilarious. To check out there site and be directed to their OFFICIAL PRESS RELASE GO HERE http://www.twistedtwinsproductions.net/ since Assly Made a Mistake! It is .NET not .COM like the dumb puppet said in the video.Also you can go here and see the Trailer for the Movie http://www.deadhookerinatrunk.com/ Yep, assly is now pissed for the name calling, gotta go fight him talk to you all soon!
-Craptastic Writer

I'm going to tell you the truth - a puppet named Assly had Jen and I laughing our asses off this morning. With his hand up the puppet's ass is good friend, Kristian J Hanson the Craptastic Writer - you may remember him from this earlier post - is funny as fuck. A horror writer with a specialty for putting in lol-inducing comedy when eviscerations run high - if you dig a something rad with teen angst that won't embarrass you while you read it, do check out his book - Fat Kid's Wolfy Revenge.


It was an extreme honor to hear that Kristian and Assly would be doing a video review of DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK! I don't want to spoil anything, but it is very fucking entertaining. Please enjoy --



Assly & Kristian, you two are so rad - even though you're Blackhawks fans. Thank you for going through all the trouble to get your own DEAD HOOKER and bring her home! Thank you for pimping out the big release!

Holy fuck - it's today. Which means you can watch DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK on VOD today before the limited theatrical release. Call your folks, your buddies from work, random people off the street, and that dude that laughs at the most inappropriate times - they're gonna love it!!
