crapper is right 2 July 2006
Format:DVD
Awfull, blooming awfull thats all i can say about this film.But there in lies it charm.Any fans of really bad horror must buy this film.Basically 2 films (one about a monster from outta space killing strippers and 3 vampire call girls eating their clients, one who is Hurely from tv series Lost!)edited together with the usual troma inserts and filmed scenes.

The film does not gell at all its obvious where one film starts and ends and its obvious where troma have tried to hide the seams.But this is the fun of it all.Julie strain stars in both parts and is quite fun to watch in a b movie way and its very very funny just for all the wrong reasons!

Another reason to buy it is the awesome making of documenatry explaining why it was made, the problems occured while shooting inserts and Llyod bascially saying how bad he let it get. This in its self is worth buying it for.

TOO MUCH CRAPPER, NOT ENOUGH FILM 30 May 2011
By Michael Ledo - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
The film starts out with a lame introduction followed by a second lame introduction. Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz need to release no one watches the movies to see their faces or hear their stupid monologue filled with dumb homosexual bits. The film could have also eliminated the feces material/jokes and just stuck to an occasional fart joke. Real movies don't need introductions.

Like a "Family Guy" episode, there is no real plot. The movie is about silicon strippers, mostly removing just the tops. Julie Strain removes her bottoms. It appears that the scenes in the movie of her at home were actually shot in her home. The movie boasts a certain type of vision which is nothing more than a small screen insert with a stripper. Loosely the plot of the first film is an alien space craft comes to earth and an alien is killing people at a strip club. Julie goes undercover to investigate. In the second film lesbian vampires strip for college boys as a fund raiser.

There is satire in the film. It makes fun of news, news reporters, cops, and Oliver Stone. Much of the humor was done with voice overs, aka "What's Up Tiger Lily" style as sexy dancers sound like they are males, and males at the strip club are made to sound gay. This worked fairly well as did Julie Strain as a "Dirty Harry" cop. Unfortunately there wasn't enough of the good stuff, so they used "crap" (literally) to fill in.

More nudity in the DVD extras, including more of Julie Strain. For those who can't get enough of Ms. Strain, I suggest watching the DVD extra of "Delta Delta Die."

'Tales' Very Troma-tic 11 Nov 2004
By rhmoviemogal - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Maybe I am getting too old, maybe more mature, either way I didn't enjoy this movie like "Tromeo and Juliet," "Toxic Avenger Series," and my personal fave, "Killer Condom." Pretty much in the same vein as "Terror Firmer," it follows 2 stories that is loaded with sickness, grossness, lesbian vampires, and cannibal hos. Also features "Boner-Vison" which features boobie shots galore. Too much self parody and not enough of what made Troma great. Julie Strain is well, Julie Strain. 'Nuff said there. If your looking for silliness and lesbian sex, this is for you.

Sent me to the crapper 12 July 2009
By Franco Jesse - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Even by Troma standards, this is pretty low. Not because of the filth, sex, perversion and general goofiness--I like that stuff. But the execution here is rather slipshod. Really seems like stuff that they would otherwise have thrown out, put on display to make money. At least the title is accurate. But there's too much Lloyd Kaufmann. He has a few good lines, but he's not as funny as he thinks he is. Debbie Rochon is wasted in a small but potentially funny (and completely clothed role). Julie Strain is best in pieces where she is overbearing, which is most of the time. But when she's not on screen, the movie slows to a crawl. For me, there was just too much tedium and not enough laughs.
