The horror comedy for those who think that Troma movies aren't silly enough.
16 October 2018
After watching the downright bizarre slasher Disconnected, I simply had to watch another of director Gorman Bechard's movies to see if they were all as strange. Although not quite as off-kilter as Disconnected, tongue-in-cheek gore comedy Psychos In Love certainly has its curious moments, with oddball humour that, at times, borders on the surreal. While I can't, hand on heart, say that I laughed at any of the gags, my ribs remaining untickled throughout, I will admit to still quite liking the film, largely thanks to the amiable cast, who are clearly having a lot of fun, and also because there's loads of T&A from some rather scrumptious ladies.

Lovely Debi Thibeault (think Molly Ringwald with more sex appeal) plays psycho manicurist Kate who hooks up with serial killer strip-club owner Joe (Carmine Capobianco) after they realise that they have two things in common: they enjoy slaughtering people, and they both hate grapes. That's pretty much all there is in terms of plot, the bulk of the film consisting of Kate and Joe luring victims to their demise, which leads to lots of very silly comedy, plenty of gratuitous female nudity, and some cheap and cheerful splatter. The end of the film sees the murderous couple trying to kick their killer habit, but once again resorting to violence to contend with a cannibalistic plumber named Herman (Frank Stewart).
