Greetings 'Den-Dweller's',
Tis I, your 'High-Maintenance', 'Hot-Mess' of Horror', DITA DIRT NAP!
Back this week with a 80's 'Grind-House'-Gem for you.
It's called 'MAUSOLEUM'!!!
As you can see in my first Pic ,that our wonderful Pet/Family member; 'CHILLING-CHINA'
is sitting on my lap and helps me start this show/review!
Love her!
Now, this is a film DITA has wanted to Review since I started with Count Gore, oh so many moons ago. (The Year I started w/Count Gore was 2000',Hon!) It was unfortunately 'out of print' at that time. But now is Streaming on 'TUBI!'
Derek, 'The Vamperic-Announcer' Interrupts, 'Uh, do you think for once you could give a some-what, brief Review, just for me???
DITA Responds; 'Hmmmmm? I don't know, but I will certainly try, uh, just for you. You little 'Hemoglobin-Hottie!' 'Wanna hear it?'
Here it goes.....................(DITA takes a big breath)..........First this
little culty, creeper- keeper starts out with a young girl who's attending her
mother's Funeral.
Distraught she, is told by her Aunt that she is to come live with her.
Well, little 'Miss' has other plans and runs away across the cool, gothic Grave
Yard to a 'MAUSOLEUM' where she finds a creepy, uh, wait. To save time and
breath, simply click here to see the scene for your wicked little selves;

Too actually make a longer Story Shorter, here is
DITA's infamous 'THINGS-2-LOOK-4-LIST' of 'noteworthy-things'
that happen in this fun little 'Grind-House Flick' that should really be Shown
on the 'Big-Screen' at the 'NEW BEVERLY CINEMA' at their 'Grindhouse Nights on
Mondays' for
maximum effect, no-foolin;
* Any and all 'Seduction Scenes' with partial nudity included with the Sexy Lead
Actress (when she grows up, after the 'grave yard' scene.) Bobbie Bresee, I
believe.
Who does she seduce and kill in the movie you may ask.
Let DITA see now.
Only the Gardner?, the Therapist, Plant Delivery Guy, Lady-friend, a Art Gallery
Owner, and of course her own , oh, uh, wait that's telling too much, my
'Little-Spider-Bites!"
* Any and 'ALL' scenes with her Maid, played comically by Actress, LaWanda Page ('SANFORD AND SON'). She is the Best in this movie at giving 'comic-relief'. Her Best Line, besides almost all of them is spoken while coming up the stairs at the Miss Bobbie's House to check on her, after Bobbie's possessed by the Demon from the Mausoleum, (eerie green fog is floating/flowing around at the top of the stairs, with the 'Lady Of The House's' bedroom door ajar with even more flashing/flowing green fog) is; Damn, there's some scary shit going on in this house!!!" See this exact scene by Clicking here, Hon> https://youtu.be/X8qLyf7Bug4?si=MuKlD-LmJg2uA8iK (Love, love it, love it & love LaWanda!!!)
* Killing scene with 'someone' in the bath tub, with lots-o-blood'!!! (Cool!!!)
* Scene where 'WIFEY'/Bobbie flashes the gardener, while on her balcony. (Woo-hoo! 'BOOBIE'S!!!)
* Scene where she rocks demonically in bedroom rocking chair.
* Scene where 'Wifey' is put under hypnosis and the evil green-glowing eyed demon comes out to visit her Shrink. (Demonic Possession, don't cha' just love it???)
* Scene where Demon comes crawling out of his tomb with big 'RATS' on top of it.
* Finale scene with someone putting a crown of thorns
on the Demon while back in his..................???
What you know DITA never likes to tell the whole Story, uh, usually. Oh, and the
reason why all this happened?
Well DITA will tell you in a 'demon-possession'-nutshell.
You see, the woman and the 'Wifey/Young girl at the beginning of this
'fright-flick' in the grave-yard, had a history with this particular 'extra-evil
Demon'.
That being the 'first-born female in every generation is hauntingly called to
the Mausoleum and possessed by the Demon. Hmmm?
Since DITA didn't tell you all, I will say that 'SOMEONE' at the end of this
very culty/campy flick does come back from the 'dead' to 'Guard' the Entrance to
the Mausoleum, from then on........................'but'
WHO????????????????????? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
I wonder who?
I'll never tell, so to find out and to see the 'needle-in-a-haystack' cult-gem of a Horror Flick just simply Stream it on 'TUBI', and see for your little 'demonic-self'! (Insert DITA's 'Evil Laughter' here!) 'LADY-DIRT NAP', loved reviewing this Culty fright flick and gives it a Perfect Score of 3 Skulls Out Of 3!!! Demonically-divoon, even!!! LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!
DITA highly suggests watching it in the dark with someone you can hold on to, and, uh, laugh out loud at the over-the-top Campy parts that I just loved! A word of advice though from 'yours-cruel-ly'. Don't laugh too hard or you might toot! LOL!
