Sick Girl (2006)

Absolutely the worst movie.

There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

The acting in this movie is really good.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

"Sick Girl" is a combination of morbid romantic comedy and the over-the-top B horror, in the Henenlotter style. Angela Bettis plays the entomologist, a lonely and insecure lesbian whose apartment is full of pet insects. She looks like she fell out of the forties, and her voice and the way she talks were terribly annoying to me. She meets Misty Falls, beautiful but strange and mysterious girl, played by Erin Brown, to fans of lesbian fantasy soft-porn better known as Misty Mundae. Just google her filmography and everything will be clear. The two of them become a couple and start living together. At the same time, Angela receives an anonymous shipment with an unknown species of insect. This creature escapes from its box and starts a series of unfortunate events which, although fun, are a sorry excuse for the horror genre. Also, there is no chemistry between the actresses, or at least I have not felt it. The episode was originally intended for Roger Corman and if he weren't replaced by Lucky McKee it might be better. This way it's neither scary, nor funny, nor romantic. The word which, in my opinion, best describes this episode is "awkward".5/10

I never heard of Luck McKee until now. He seems to be a future master of horror.This story is about this nerd-ish woman who has a fascination for insects. She lives alone in an apartment with her "friends" and has a nosy landlady looking over shoulder. But she does befriend the landlady's granddaughter. One day she gets a package with a strange bug in it and the bug gets loose. She also meets the woman (yes! I said woman)of her dreams, and the mayhem it causes.This is one of quirky off beat movies that is silly but fun. In the spirit of 'Evil Dead 2' it's just......goofy! But fun!

The main actress was a terrible actress, she was imitating Microsoft Sam or whatever the application is called. The only good part was right at the end when the lesbian turns into a crazy bug monster and eats the co-worker of the main lead. .Clam lickers unite, but the characters were not really believable, especially when one is based on a 1950's prude wife and the other is a spaced out hippy who has hair like the chick from the ring. It started out strong with the conversation between the lead and her colleague but it trailed off after that.I agree with one message in the film though, lesbians are not paedophiles and the old lady should have chilled out, glad she "fell" down the stairs lol. There were breasts, but they were not as good and do not redeem this flick.

This episode of the "Masters of Horror" series tries very hard to be both amusing and horrifying but doesn't quite manage to be either.The "humor" is very heavy-handed and Angela Bettis's character "Ida Teeter" is a caricature, not a human being. The plot line is promising (a strange, huge bug running loose that can devour mammals and impregnate (!) them) but ultimately goes nowhere. Bettis's co-star Erin Brown (aka Misty Mundae. a soft porn/horror scream queen) tries to make the most of her role as the ditsy, pixie-obsessed "Misty Falls", but leaves no major impression.The whole relationship between the two women seems unbelievably far-fetched. Ida is not particularly attractive, looks much older than Misty, and is very weird and socially-unskilled, and yet Misty has been fixated on her, as it turns out, for YEARS! Misty seems pretty strange herself, but even so her obsession with Ida seems ludicrous. And why does the perfectly normal-seeming Max give the insufferable Ida the time of day, much less be her best friend? The land lady character seems to exist only to be "the bad person who deserved to get killed" role you see in countless unimaginative horror films. And Max is the second "friend of the protagonist" character to get killed that I've seen in the Master of Horror series. Is this some kind of formula that stories in this series must adhere to? I've seen two segments so far and both of them featured the nice friend of the protagonist getting destroyed by a monster. In "Sick Girl", the death of Max was gratuitous and served no purpose at all, except to provide some gore.The ending were terrible, incredibly stupid even for a horror movie. Misty becomes this CREATURE, a "bug" of some kind, and the bug's mandibles (or whatever they have) have torn through her flesh (earlier Misty's ear became a bloody mush and fell off). She's no longer human. But at the end, she's perfectly normal and healthy looking and happily pregnant with the bug's offspring (as is Ida). HOW is it possible to go from having her flesh ripped apart from the inside to being whole again? Like I said, it's stupid even for a horror movie.I'm going to watch two other segments of this series tonight. God, I hope they're better than this!
