Fantastic!
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Ishtar was Sumerian, not Egyptian. This is a sad attempt to make Goddess worship about sacrifice, which it isn't.

During these long, lonely nights he is repeatedly drawn to a statue representing the seductive ancient goddess ISHTAR. Blood Feast is confusing, boring, messy and quite weird to say the least but also way far from being entertaining to say the least. The overall acting was also really horrible and the movie was neither scary either in the end.
Two really negative reviews yet it has a rating of 7.6. Appears that a lot of shills have been tapping star keys to push the score up. Pretty obvious really that they are shills.
One thing this got right is the amount of blood it has. And without having seen the original this is based on (I can only assume that it wasn't a masterpiece either, but still way better than this, it has to be), I can say, that this is really bad. Now I do see the rating this received from others (though none wanted to comment on their rating?) and I can only assume that they were enjoying how bad this is.Like having a blast watching a bad movie with mates/friends. Kind of like "Tulpa" where I had a really good time, despite (or because) the movie was awful. Now this is more or less aware of how bad it is, it actually tries to play into that fact. But just by acknowledging that you are doing something intentionally, doesn't make it fun. There is also a craft in being bad by purpose. This just is infantile (in more than one way). One example is a sign at the diner, that has a joke, but is being shown for way too long. It's in your face, waving with both hands jumping up and down, right in front of your nose. Again, this may be able to entertain in times (for all the wrong reasons), but it's not good - no pun intended
