The Soska sisters (Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska), those twisted identical twins from Canada who rocked the horror scene with the bizarre, over the top exploitation classic Dead Hooker in a Trunk and then broke into popular culture with the equally outrageous, but more challenging and deep horror film American Mary, are back at it again with their first major original project since American Mary, and Twisted Twins fans, as well as fans of horror, exploitation, and comics should be very, very excited.

In recent years the Soska sisters have focused on directing other people's projects, and this is all well and good, but what makes the Soskas really unique,...
