Cherry Bomb

The stripper Cherry Bomb (Julin) is gang-raped by five clients in the VIP room of the night-club where she works. She is sent to the hospital where her estranged brother Brandon (John Gabriel Rodriquez) overhears her statement to a corrupt police detective. He decides to collect money from one of the assaulters, who is a drug-dealer, to pay the hospital bill of his sister but they have an argument and Brandon kills the drug dealer and his girlfriend. Cherry decides to revenge her assault and teams-up with her brother. Meanwhile the dangerous hit-man Bull (Allen Hackley) is hired to kill the siblings. Who hired Bull?

"Cherry Bomb" is one of the awfulness low-budget movie ever made. The plot of this terrible story is full of flaws and holes; weak actors and actresses; poor locations, lightning, make-up, effects etc. Now I understand the low-price of this Blu-ray. In the end, it is not worthwhile watching this film. My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): Not Available

Maybe the filmmaker at work here, intentionally tried to make the movie bad. Maybe he was trying to make it look (editing-wise) like an incoherent mess. Maybe he told the actors not to act, too. But I don't really believe that is the case. Even if you try to be nice to it, you can't overlook the major flaws in almost every department on this movie, which is why I don't think one person is to blame alone.

Cheap movies can be fun and from time to time there is a real gem among them (still looking at you Alyce, you were a nice surprise indeed!). This is not the case here. The twists are so bad, you might be wondering who was responsible for this cheesy mess. Not that the actors are doing anything to improve that stuff. But bad dialogue and incoherent character development (if you can even call it that) add to something you seriously do not want to watch. You've been warned

These other reviews have to be cast and crew. Though I appreciate their efforts, this flick sucked. This actually could have been decent if they wanted. I sensed the director wasn't taking this seriously, thus the campiness, but yet, at times, it seems to want to be taken seriously.

That never works.

Oh well! If your bored you might make it through. As of this writing Im currently at the 53:27 mark in the movie. Had to write something on this flick. Now,debating(real hard)on whether to finish.

P.S. - I hate Texas. The worst backdrop for filmed entertainment!!!

I can never understand the people who ask if they can have the wasted xx- time out of their lives that it took them to watch a particular movie back....until now.

I'm really trying hard to find something positive to say about this film but I honestly can't find anything at all. The plot is excruciatingly transparent, the acting is universally appalling, the writing is an insult to the audience and the whole thing truly is a waste of time and money. The positive reviewers are either members of the crew or people whose reviews a normal viewer needs to watch out for because they will serve as a beacon of what to avoid.

I hate to be so negative but this is an experience for hardened masochists only, I'm afraid.

So in Recent years ever since Rodriguez and Taratino's Grindhouse flicks came out, we've had a slew of poor imitators coming out of the woodwork. Cherry Bomb isn't really all that different or the one thing that makes it stand out, is it's one of the freaking worst of the genre to come out.

First we have Cherry- late night stripper who is assaulted one night(thankfully it's more implied than shown) she's released from the hospital and immediately has plans for an upcoming murder/revenge spree. Instead of the character reflection, anger, humiliation, she just acts like a spoiled brat. I don't think I've ever disliked a character as much as her in any movie I've watched. Then there's the brother who really doesn't add too much- just helps reluctantly to off her assailants. the only other character of note is the hit man. a poor ripoff of Samuel L form Pulp fiction- rides around whilst wearing a suit and bad Fro wig, adds nothing to the film

Yes it's supposed to look like a cheap grindhouse movie, but it has no polish at all, horrible production value. I mean I've seen decent flicks on a shoestring budget, but this turd has really missed it's mark.

In short don't waste your time with this Bomb. stick to Hobo w Shotgun, Deathproof, or Planet Terror. Hell watch Troll 2 instead too.
