Bumbling Satanists abduct a well-endowed waitress to offer up as a bride to their dark master, an equally bumbling party of redneck rescuers crash the party, and in the ensuing botched ritual the powers of hell find a new host in the form of a recently sacrificed chicken. You’d have thought that with a story as preposterously left-field (and yet undeniably logical) as this, and the wonderful tagline ‘Evil Most Fowl’, much hilarity would ensue. Sadly, this isn’t the case. The campy characters – High Priestess Vascara, wet Goth-boy Gideon – are like something out of a bad Roger Waters movie, the lashings of blood are created with very low-grade CGI, the evil bird is a major disappointment and the script simply doesn’t contain enough ideas to keep the film on its feet for 72 weary minutes. Being Ed Wood is one thing, wanting to be Ed Wood quite another.
