A
two part horror anthology of two
women named Silvia (Alexandra
Paulhiac) and RoseMarie (Sasha
Graham) each with a bit in common
as they are both beautiful and
live in the same building.
Not only that, they both are
living a terrifying nightmare.
Silvia has an abusive boyfriend,
a prank caller and a hands on
police detective.
Also a serial killer is on the
loose killing nude models.
Can any of these people mentioned
be the killer?
RoseMarie
however, wants to break into the
business of theatre acting along
with an old friend named Monica
who demands a re-union... Even if
she has to kill to have it.
RoseMarie encounters some bloody
murders as well as the spirit of
her dead mother.
Is RoseMarie losing it?
An ok no budgeter
as the first part of this movie
was alot like Scream and
the second one very much reminded
me of those Fear Street
novels by R.L. Stine whom
I'm a fan of. However, the camcorder camera looked extremely
cheap along with the lighting it's sometimes hard to believe that it
would be released like this.
Almost like an underground Grindhouse type of a film.
In Nocturnal Emissions, the acting is quite bad for some of the supporting cast but not too shabby with some of the leads. Sasha Graham
seems to do a fairly good job with her acting skills compared to the
raw quality of this flick showing some character to her part in it as
the one who is being stalked by the deadly prank caller. She is quite a
natural with her character as she
plays someone with a split
personality which is hard to do.
Indie scream king Joe Zaso as a detective however didn't impress me too much as he overly does it alot of times. Sorry Joe.
Supporting actress Ruby Honeycat as the model in the film was god awful with her acting as I wasn't convinced the slightest with her work in it.
In Method to the Madness, the acting is a bit better as Sasha Graham plays another character in this film who seemed quite good with her intensity in it.
Carl Marchese also is fine as her shrink trying to help her out with her problems.
However,
Joseph Marzano is too mellodramatic as his role playing a nasty stage director.
Plenty of nudity in Nocturnal Emissions.
Sasha
Graham undresses and her breasts are exposed.
Ruby Honeycat flashes her breasts during a model shoot. She also takes it off again while getting undressed.
A breast shot and brief butt shot on Graham during a sex scene as well as a brief butt shot on Zaso in a shower with her.
In Nocturnal Emissions a small butcher knife is stabbed in a model's head bloodied.
In Methods to the Madness we have some bloody stabbings
A wounded bloodied head
Bloody scars from thorns of a rose
Bloodied head
The directing for "Nocturnal Emissions" by Joseph A. Parda is very amateurish. He is extremely slow with the dispue between Sasha Graham and
Eraldo Maglara in a restaurant and none of it looks believeable especially with his violent actions.
There is a good camera shot on Graham on the phone hearing a prank call which looked okay as it gave that Scream type of feel to it but in a no budget way.
Interesting dark shot with a car and a hole being dug up to bury a corpse.
The camera circles around Graham and Ruby Honeycat having a conversation as it looks sloppy and annoying.
Honeycat doesn't look beliebeable at all when posing to get her pictures taken for a model shoot. The camera zooms back and fourth on Honeycat and Eraldo Maglara as the photographer as it looks like someone is supposed to be videotaping them talking like what you'd see in Blair Witch Project but it isn't so another low pointer on this.
Honeycat looks
phony by being frightened when she is attacked and her screaming lacks
big time. However there are some good picture shots on her dead.
A fairly descent dialogue with Graham about the murder that occurred with Joe Zaso and Hank Poje although the camera was jiggly.
A lame camera shot with a special effects background on Zaso and Poje chasing after a suspect as they don't look believeable with their running.
Zaso and Graham
looked not too bad at times talking to one another alone in a
restaurant as she almost does well at being hesitant at times. There
were other times it looked too silly with Zaso acting a little excited about stuff.
There are some artsy camera shots between Graham and Zaso with their lustful scene's together.
A good shot on Zaso speaking and staring at himself in a mirror with a towel wrapped around him.
There's a good face shot on Zaso looking menacing but his actions were too melodramatic.
Graham is fairly good when she loses her mind and balls out shaking her head.
Joe Zaso directed the second piece in this flick titled "Method to the Madness" as he has some good shots around Manhattan with the buildings and Broadway posters.
There is a cheesy dialogue between Sasha Graham and Liz Haverty as roomates in an apartment when Haverty mocks her about wanting to be an actress which looks too over the top.
There is a good shot on a photo and some scissors cutting it along with shots on some roses too.
There's a scene with Joseph Marzano trying to hypnotise Graham but it looks very fake. However there is a moment when he smacks her which looks not too bad.
A good shot on Graham staring at the phone with a message for her on it as well as a shot on the phone too showing a nice suspenseful moment.
There is a good shot on Graham staring at a door as it is knocking and it looks good when she loses it and screams.
We see a good moment with Graham staring freaked out at what she sees as well as a shot on bit part actor J.C. Zachary with a ghost like face and a nice shot on a struggling scene with the two of them.
There's a great intense performance by Graham alone with Carl Marchase
as he is chained up to a wall when she expresses her insanity towards
him as well as good shots on him being tortured by thorns from a rose.
There's
some good chiming synthesizer music along with a cheesy organ keyboard
sounding during the opening credits and in some other spots too by Jerry Djerassi .
We have a good heavy metal score by Voodoo Storm with their song "Scar" for the "Nocturnal Emissions" chapter during the slaughtering moments.
