A geek named Jeffrey (Jack Dillon) desperately is looking for love but can't seem to find it.
He calls up for prostitutes, uses them for their service and asks them out but of course they're not interested.
However, one of them by the name of Pandora (Melissa Bacelar) accepts a date from him and they romantically fall in love. Jeffrey even asks her to marry him but there's one thing that he learned from her is that she feeds on human flesh as she eats her clients.
He is shocked when he finds out her secret but still tries to support her hunger by bringing people home and burying their corpses in the backyard of their tomato garden.
A vicious stalker (Joshua Nelson) tries to track Pandora down after she killed and ate his retarded brother as he kills many people that have contact through her to get to her in order to kill her.

 

A new horror film that is very disturbing and gruesome too.
At first the story looks like that it is going nowhere but that's what made it mysterious as something was going to happen and suddenly it does.
It's clever and twisted for the video budget it's on with good effects but the story is a little overly long.
This one should go far at the horror film festival circuit.

The acting is very well performed by Jack Dillon as he makes his character very real at seeming desperate with his emotions and nervousness and expressions too.
Melissa Bacelar
looks and performs fabulous as the cannibalistic prostitute who seems convincingly normal but is shockingly a maniac.
Jeanette Bonner is great as a caring relative and has a powerful role to her character too.

There are many topless scenes of actresses like Alisha Frank, Julissa Lopez and Sharon Hawk fully exposing their breats in bed or changing to leave.

Lots of intense graphic horror gore involved in this film as many clients are eaten alive revealing their insides and guts along with cut off fingers and a head too.
There are also bloody beatings and stabbing by a mobster. Plenty of blood too.
It looked very real so the effects weren't cheaply made.

James Tucker directs this piece well and he will make you squirm too.
He shows alot of shocking moments with the graphic gore caught on camera plus he coached most of the actors very well too.
He shows nice scenes between
Jack Dillon and Melissa Bacelar's romantic tryst when Dillon's character proposes to her which makes the scene look like that Bacelar's character isn't really a psycho after all.
Also him directing Bacelar's role when she's hungry for human flesh looked great too like what you might see in a vampire film.

We have some light synthesizer composing by Duane Peery but it's nothing too spectacular or over the top.
