Anyone remember Judy and Audrey Landers? Neither do I, but here is a shot-on-video actioner starring these two prudishly sultry twin bimbos (that's not a put down, it's a professional title) with big, big 80s hair. I'm starting to think ALL movies should be shot on video. Good God! You never know what's coming next. After an inciting picnic scene with our heroines, we cut to the bad guy proving he's evil by smashing some cars with a front end loader, and cackling maniacally - on a LOOP - "NYAhahahaha/NYAhahahaha/NYAhahahaha," like that. Then an absurd Vegas-style musical number, followed by a rape scene that precipitates a Judith O'Dea like collapse in sister #2 - she has a miscarriage and jumps out of her hotel window, and talks a LOT about how she wishes she were dead. The frank desperation is disarming at first, but by the time bad boy pulls a Baby Jane and pushes her wheelchair down the stairs it has degenerated into some kind of Kenny thing. In another highlight, Sister #1 has a meeting with the disgusting love-interest cop outside #2's hospital room, and the fricking guy lights a smoke! In the background, at the end of the hall, we see a woman approaching the pair, and as soon as she walks past the camera cuts out, and you just KNOW she's a hospital employee coming to tell them to put out the damn cigarette! The sisters spend the whole movie scheming to 'get' the baddie, but at about the one-hour mark we suddenly cut to these moustache men from the ammo department, chasing Mr. Bad through some vacant industrial land in a scene that goes on for at least twenty minutes. Someone in head office was really determined to get value for money for that helicopter rental. Not deadly as in deadly boring - deadly as in wicked, man, and one of the most spectacularly bad movies I've ever seen.
