movie mixed scissors scenes

Demon Keeper


STARRING: Dirk Benedict Edward Albert Katrina Maltby Mike Lane

ACCESS: video only

GENERAL DESCRIPTION: a fake psychic holds a retreat and accidentally summons
an evil spirit who possesses his guests and gets them to kill each other. once
they kill another guest, they die too and both souls get taken. one of the
guests is a real psychic (Dirk Benedict), who takes over and tries to put the
spirit back in his place using a seance.

SCISSORS SCENE: the bodies of a man and woman have been found in their bed and
Dirk Benedict holds a seance to find out "how they passed". he summons a
female "spirit guide" who tells them. the male is in the bathroom showering
while the lady waits in bed. the evil spirit enters and possesses her. she
squirms and writhes in enjoyment as the room fills with smoke. as the man
comes back into the room the smoke and the demon both disappear. he eagerly
mounts her at which point her eyes spring open and stare up in a classic
zombie like fashion. he tenderly lowers his face to her's for a kiss when
suddenly she applies a crushing body scissors. he gasps for air as the sounds
of bones breaking are heard. he lets out a blood curdling scream as her zombie
eyes lght up and she says, in a deep,possessed voice, "take me." after a few
more crushing sound effects he breathes his last and slumps lifeless onto her.
the light flashes in her eyes again and then flies up to the spirit world.

POSITIVES: what can i say? this is the only scissors scene i know of shown via
flashbacks during a seance. to say it was a great setup is an understatement.
the lady was pretty nice looking and the scene lasted over 30 seconds, an
eternity for a scissors scene. outstanding use of lighting. the scene occurs
in a bedroom with the lights out but we can see everything and there is even
lightning which occurs at strategic moments to dramatically light up the room.
great production values here.

NEGATIVES: after having said so many nice things about how this was filmed,
the one negative is the camera work. to an average film-goer it would seem
fine but what do we scissor-lovers like to see? legs!! we see the lower part
of her legs and his backside at the beginning of the scissors, then it's all
head and shoulder shots of both parties with one, long, lngering look at her
locked ankles. there's not one single full bodied frame of her scissoring him.
also, i find it unlikely that a person being squeezed to death could scream
that loudly.

OVERALL RATING: **
