All About Evil

Slasher film of the worst kind. And by worst, I obviously mean awesome.

Librarian Debbie runs the movie theater her late father left her. When her evil mother (formerly playing the Wicked Witch in a Wizard of Oz themed matinee) wants her to co-sign a sale contract, Debbie snaps and kills her.

The security camera in the lobby has captured the entire encounter and as she panics and accidentally plays it back to the audience instead of the actual film that was supposed to screen, it becomes an instant hit and Debbie is henceforth celebrated as a heroine filmmaker.

She proceeds to produce a string of horror shorts, assisted by a group of misfits, that play to increasing success in her own theater. Obviously, Debbie - now going by Deborah Tennis - eventually dies a gruesome b-horror-movie death.

Funny/ridiculous film that makes fun of itself and the b-horror genre as it produces rivers of fake blood.

6/10
