Audience Member BOOBBIEESSSSS!!!!!!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Yes this is a bad B-movie, and no there is no plot to speak of, but I found this satirical story just a bit more humorously entertaining than a typical film of this genre. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Bill Zebub movie. Very low budget with plenty of boobs & alot of bodies Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member For starters, as I sometimes warn you, Don't Watch Kill the Scream Queen unless you are of that peculiar ilk of cinema fans who must watch the so-called "most depraved" films ever. Metal magazine producer and horror film aficionado, Bill Zebub directs this extremely low-budget, boring, and pointless horror film that makes the films of Herschell Gordon Lewis and August Underground seem like Oscar-worthy entertainment. A series of torture tableaux in which Bill Zebub plays a psycho-killer who tortures and kills women while filming them and then sells the films as "fake snuff films." The torture and murder scenes are boring, unrealistic, almost openly misogynistic, and not even that brutal. Ultimately, Kill the Scream Queen lacks the gore and plot that would make it memorable. There is zero plot linking the scenes together and Bill Zebub obviously has no knowledge of special effects since the film features almost no gore. Instead, it is merely 75 minutes of him taunting women, groping them, and then killing them (usually off-camera). As crappy as a horror film can be, Kill the Scream Queen is not worth the time of even the most devoted of horror and transgressive cinema fans. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A sexual psychopath and serial killer turned movie-maker (or movie-maker turned sexual psychopath and serial killer) (Zebub) lures wanna-be actresses to an abandoned bar with the promise of being in his horror movie/snuff-film. He then tortures and rapes them. That is not only a summary of "Kill the Scream Queen", it is the entire content of the film. There is virtually nothing worthwhile here, unless you want your "torture porn" almost completely free of plot and character development, and with a little more porn that you find in the "Hostel" and "Saw" movies. The very low One Tomato I'm giving this pointless piece of "filmmaking" is based on the one victim that fights back in a big way. Otherwise, most of the girls here are just so much meat--only two show even the slightest glimmer of acting talent--and the filmmaking and effects are pedestrian in the extreme. Worse, the fillm is such an amateur effort that the director can't even keep his continuity straight. In one scene, he rips a girl's panties off so he can rape her, yet when he dumps the body, they're back on and they're intact. (The only positive things I can say is that the "writer and director" of the film didn't attempt to overreach his $1.25 budget. There's also the "message" that gets delivered via film-maker's monologues directed at his victims... that an emphasis on sex and gore over acting and story is ruining the horror genre.) I like the high concept of the movie... but I just wish a movie had actually been made with it, instead of a collection of clips with girls takeing their clothes off and being menaced and killed with nothing else going on.
