Review of Peelers

Peelers (2016)
2/10
Beware!
5 April 2017
First things first - thanks to this abortion I am never again watching a movie unless it has at least 200 votes and more than 50 reviews.

I like indie horror, there is something quite satisfying in knowing filmmaker has managed to come up with a good/great movie on shoestring budget. I have enjoyed many of them over the years.

This however, is impossible to enjoy, or even watch unless you're stoned/drunk out of your mind or just plain dumb. Low budget is no excuse for truly awful acting, unlikeable characters, poor effects and a story that could be written by a 8 year old with high fever.

Directors previous effort, Skew, is nothing short of a masterpiece compared to this one. Younger viewers will probably "enjoy" lots of flesh as it all goes down in a stripclub. But the girls are fugly and no amount of naked boobies and asses can save this wreck from bottom of a barrel.

Main character of "Blue Jean" has about as much charisma as those stripper poles. Two "facts" about her are funnier and more entertaining than anything in the movie - she is "classically trained actress" (maybe in softcore porn) according to IMDb. And she supposedly "beat out over 200 other actresses for this role", something that is almost impossible to believe. I simply refuse to think that there were over 200 other girls who were less talented than her :) But hey, maybe there really were a few hundred 5 dollar strippers auditioning for the role and only 5% of them spoke English. That is the only possible explanation.

Here is a funny "coincidence" - as of 05.04.17. every single person (except 1 out of 19) who gave this movie positive feedback has written only one review and one vote on their profiles. And guess what, its of this movie. I guess nothing beats closest family and friends.
