merklekranz Nobody is going to mistake "Girlfriend From Hell" for "War of the Roses", but it is at least for the first half, an entertaining "black comedy". The idea of the devil taking over a shy, prudish girls body, and sending her into a frenzy of lust is pretty good. Unfortunately, once "The Chaser" appears to hunt down the devil, things rapidly deteriorate into "Three Stooges" slapstick. Character development is acceptable, and there is some sharp dialog. The opening and closing theme song is memorable, as is the long lasting image of a Nun firing a rocket launcher. In the end, the strong first half is enough to almost overcome the weak conclusion. - MERK

Scarecrow-88 Terrible comedy about a teenage girl, Maggie(Liane Curtis)whose body is taken over by the Devil; her friends' souls are hanging in the balance. Chaser(Dana Ashbrook; WAXWORK), assigned by God to kill Satan, is the group's only hope. Lezlie Deane(FREDDIE'S DEAD: THE FINAL NIGHTMARE)will join forces with Chaser in helping save her friends from eternal damnation. The Devil uses Maggie's body for sexual purposes, and the guys of the group who she seduces have their "souls sucked" during intercourse. Maggie, possessed against her will, also has powers at her disposal so her friends are in a whole heap of trouble(bodies are levitated in mid air, can be controlled to do sinful things, etc). Ashbrook, and the rest of the cast, seem to be having fun with the material(especially Curtis as the girl possessed by the Devil), as Satan causes all sorts of mischief and mayhem. Ashbrook has problems with his teleporting device, a tool which sends him to alternate planets and dimensions. The entertainment value of such a movie as this depends on whether or not you find the material funny. If you enjoy the characters, the performances of the actors involved, and what comes out of their mouths, maybe silly junk like this might have some appeal..there are plenty of jabs at Christians and the usual sexual jokes. If you enjoy seeing women slug guys in the face and vice versa, this could tickle your funnybone, like one such scene where Ashbrook punches a possessed Maggie out of a window and off of the roof to the ground below numerous times(or where one victim is reduced to the size of a gold fish and put in a bowl of water for boinking Maggie over the head with a bible). I think many will know Curtis from SIXTEEN CANDLES. This is probably a bit funnier if one is intoxicated or stoned.

proustbird-1 Well... Girlfriend from hell is about a shy single soul called Maggie who just so happens to be set up by her friends for a birthday party. When the Devil is being chased by 'Chaser' it enters the body of little shy Maggie. Not so shy anyone, Maggie goes on the town with her friends to raise some hell and boy does she!!!Some people may be off put by the first scene which happens to be worse the 'The Blob's' first scene. Every single person in the film is wonderful and I'm sure that you will laugh out aloud at this one, even if you don't want to.Nuns with guns... Killer lobsters... steering wheel jams... blow jobs from hell... five wrapped sweaters... a cake... And for god sake... When invited to a birthday party of Rocko's, DO NOT burst a balloon.The woman playing Rocko's girlfriend is the highlight of this film. She makes me smile and laugh just from looking at her doing nothing! For example, when Rocko burst a balloon...."WHAT did you do that for...?" "It was a stupid balloon!" "It wasn't just a stupid balloon, it was one of your birthday balloons I spent a very long time blowing up..!" (KICKS HIM IN THE FACE)FANTASTIC, HILARIOUS COMEDY THAT IS VERY WELL DONE... LOOK OUT FOR THE SCENE WITH THE VASE!

Kierian Okay Oscar winning material this is not. But if you like movies that are so bad they're good...this is it. God's hit-man, a geeky looking guy who drinks and likes to womanize, chases the devil throughout eternity. In this movie the devil leaps into a wall flower of a girl named Maggie. The ensuing hilarity which ensues involves rocket launcher toting nuns, women constantly punching their boyfriends, a high speed car ride, and the stealing of men's souls through their...umm...just see the movie. Don't expect witty dialogue...this movie is definitely only for those who like bad movies. I enjoyed it but I've got weird tastes.
