Wolff Movie Index

Granny, The(1996)

Wolff rating: EVIL

Plot summary: A nasty grandmother ends up consuming a potion that makes her undead and nearly invincible.

Biased, pithy comments: I can't say I didn't enjoy this movie, but that was mostly because I was procrastinating pretty hard at the time, and it was at that right no-think level. Production values are, well, pretty low, but the camera is entertainingly (if dizzyingly) tilted throughout most of the film. Contains gratiuitous nudity (of course) along with gratuitous latex gore. Not one for the keeper pile, but I suppose it could be fun to yell back at if it made a little more sense. The actresses are cute, some of the comeback lines are OK (if they weren't so self-consciously self-mocking), but the shotgun doesn't blow a big enough hole in the bad guy.

Other Notes: Made for Cinemax. To say that Kelly, our heroine, is ''plain'' is a laugh. She's obviously pretty from the start.

How many times I have seen it: x1

Starring: No one you know
