Decadent Evil + Decadent Evil II (Remastered)
(April Gilbert, Daniel Lennox, Debra Meyer, James C. Burns, Jessica Morris, Jill Michelle, et al / Blu-ray / NR / (2005/2007) 2026 / Full Moon Features - MVD Visual)

Overview: Nasty, horny human/reptile hybrid homunculus Marvin spends his days as a cursed, cage-bound attraction at a decadent strip club called the Meat Market, run by ancient vampire Morella (the late Debra Mayer, BLOOD DOLLS).

Once, Marvin was fully human and, when he crossed Morella, she put a spell on him to shrink and bear witness as she and her fellow parasitic peelers drain the club clientele dry, night after night.

Now, as Morella executes her final kills to become the most powerful vampire of all, Marvin’s son, Ivan (Phil Fondacaro, THE CREEPS, TROLL) appears, armed with a plan to exact the ultimate revenge against her.

Gruesome practical effects, strange creatures and wicked women all serve to make director Charles Band’s DECADENT EVIL one of Full Moon’s freakiest mid-period offerings, presented here for the first time in a stunning HD transfer scanned from the original 35mm negative.

Decadent Evil Blu-ray Verdict: Director Charles Band and writer August White cover all the pleasingly drecky bases with this jaw-dropping exercise in total low-rent silliness: a sizable smattering of tasty gratuitous female nudity, snarky dialogue, a throbbing trash rock soundtrack, a pervasively goofy atmosphere, gobs of tacky gore, ridiculous plot twists, and lovably lousy (far from) special effects!

A bevy of beautiful babes further ensure that this movie remains watchable throughout: sunny blonde Jill Michelle as the sweet Sugar, hot brunette Raelyn Hennessee as the sultry and insolent Spyce, attractive Hazel Dean as the enticing Tami, and buxom Harmony Rose as ditsy hooker Jazzmin. The rest of the cast struggle gamely with the absurd, yet formidably watchable material: Daniel Lennox contributes a likable turn as Sugar’s baffled boyfriend Dex, Phil Fondacaro does well as dedicated vampire hunter Ivan, and John F. Schaffer has a funny bit as the hopelessly geeky Lester.

Charles Band’s DECADENT EVIL II is back, in this even more outrageous sex and death-filled sequel! After surviving their encounter with the Queen Vampire Morella, sweet vampire Sugar (Jill Michelle) and her human boyfriend Dex (Daniel Lennox) travel with Marvin the homunculus to Little Rock, Arkansas. Their plan: to revive Marvin’s dead son, the world’s smallest vampire hunter, 3-foot-tall Ivan Burroughs (Ricardo Gill) with the life-giving blood of the King Vampire!

Soon, Sugar and Dex are drawn into a coven of the wicked creatures that are using a local strip club as cover. Will our heroes be victorious? Or will they succumb to the vile allure of this new strain of decadent evil?

Full Moon presents this crazy cult classic in HD for the first time, transferred from the original 35mm negative.

Decadent Evil II Blu-ray Verdict: This is a campy sequel to a campy film and I for one enjoyed the sh*t out of all its lofi cheesy greatness! The opening recaps the first film. Good Vampire Sugar (Jill Michelle) and her human boyfriend Dex (Daniel Lennox) wind up in Little Rock Arkansas.

They have with them Marvin, the bloody ugly puppet from the first film and Marvin’s now dead son Ivan (Ricardo Gil), a midget Van Helsing, if you will! The want to locate the new head of the vampire clan so they can use his blood to revive Ivan. The trail leads them to Sweet Hearts, a strip joint.

I mean, come on now, for all its faults, the first film was funny and so it goes that if you allow your brain to shut off completely for an hour so too is this one. Sure, second time around it can lose some of its charm, but Charles Band has done worse and for all his low budget skills, he does bring his own brand of excellently cinematically shot nudity to the table each time!
