00:00What's up guys, I'm back with another movie review.
00:04I got a lot of Code Reds to get through, so a lot of the videos on here are going to be Code Reds, just because I have so many to go through.
00:11Today is one called Schoolgirls in Chains.
00:16This is a pretty cool flick. It's about these two brothers.
00:19One of them is kind of, I mean they're both crazy, but one of them is kind of somewhat sane, but still sadistic.
00:28The other one is kind of completely off his rocker and almost has the mentality of a child.
00:33Anyway, they have a super controlling mother, so they're really fucked up in the head.
00:38They kidnap young women and kind of use them as playthings.
00:43One brother, I think they both rape them, but one brother wants to just kind of play hide and seek with them and leapfrog and duck-duck-goose and whatever else with them.
00:54It's super dark, it's super grimy and greasy because these guys are just so gross and the things they're doing are so perverse.
01:05It's not a super graphic movie, but the tone is so kind of dark and it has just like a really slimy feel to it.
01:14It's got kind of a fun twist ending.
01:17The story is just kind of like what they do and then what happens to them.
01:21There's not a super lot of narrative in it.
01:24It just kind of watches their lives unfold for a little while.
01:28So there's not a lot of stuff to talk about in the review.
01:32If you like exploitation, if you like slimy drive-in movies, you would probably like this one.
01:41It has a pretty good amount of nudity in it.
01:44Some blood, not a lot.
01:47The performances are really good.
01:50I like the crazy brothers.
01:52They're definitely like a good pair because they play off of each other really well.
01:56You have the one who kind of watches over the other one.
01:59So they definitely develop that relationship somewhat.
02:02There's also incest.
02:04When the kind of halfway sane brother meets a woman and is going to marry her, the mom tells her that even if they get married, she's going to keep fucking her son.
02:16It's pretty fucked up stuff.
02:18It's just an interesting movie.
02:20It's been kind of low profile.
02:22Kind of hard to find sometimes.
02:24The Blu-ray from Code Red, which is spine number 82, by the way, if you're a Code Red collector.
02:30It's got a brand new transfer.
02:33It's a 2K scan from the original negatives.
02:35It looks really good.
02:37I never would have imagined the movie could look this good.
02:40But it happens a lot with Code Red.
02:42It's also got audio commentary with one of the actors and the director.
02:46And then it's got a second commentary with the director.
02:49It's got a third commentary with the director and the DP.
02:52And then it's got a featurette in the original trailer.
02:55So it's a pretty packed disc.
02:57A lot of extras.
02:58I love the cover art.
03:00I mean, that art is amazing.
03:02I mean, I would definitely want to put that poster up if I had it.
03:06I think that's a badass thing.
03:08Badass looking poster.
03:10Like I said, the movie is super grimy, greasy, slimy, gross.
03:16Depraved, which is great for someone like me who likes crazy shit.
03:20You might not like it to be that crazy.
03:22It's rough.
03:23It's not campy.
03:24It's not over the top.
03:26It's fairly grounded.
03:28And it's just really creepy.
03:31Like I said, though, if you like exploitation movies,
03:33you should definitely check it out.
03:35The DVD or the Blu-ray is a limited edition from Code Red.
03:39I don't know if you can get it at screenarchives.com or not.
03:42I got mine direct from Code Red at codereddvd.com.
03:46So check there.
03:47And if you can't get it at codereddvd.com, check screenarchives.com.
03:51Either one of those are good sources to get your Code Reds from.
03:53I don't think it's up on Roninflix, but I could be wrong.
03:56But they add some catalog titles all the time.
03:58So that's Schoolgirls in Chain.
04:00That's number 82 on the Code Red library.
04:03Check it out if you like exploitation and greasy drive-in movies.
04:06Thanks for watching the video, guys, and I'll have another one up soon.
