  • Chump Change: Willie (Will Robinson) is not exactly the man you'd want to make friends with, he's not exactly handsome, drinks too much, and some might find his predilection for porn and his masturbation habit a bit offensive ... but then again, Willie has just developed a new talent that will make you want to be freinds with him after all: As of late, when cumming he doesn't squirt semen but coins - no really. He soon demonstrates his talent to his friend Frogger (Amy Scott) who soon sets him up with a porn company, so he can turn the change he squirts into real money. Once he has demonstrated his talent to the porn producer witht he help of his favourite pornstar, he is promptly signed for a five picture deal, and he just couldn't be happier ... When he is attacked by a group of Satanists who cut off his penis, because of course Willie had his special talent only thanks to some devillish curse ...

  • Lady M.: Lady Midday (Kenyon Page) is an avenging demon rooted in Slavic folklore who allegedly has been around since Adam, Lilith and Eve. In modern times, she travels around the country in various invariably white outfits, guided by a collection of polaroids showing license plates, licence plates that belong to drivers involved in deadly hit-and-run accidents, drives Lady Midday brutally killes once she has tracked them down. The people Lady Midday is after come from all walks of life, from drug pushers to stripclub owners to wannabe Satanists, and they all have one thing in common, Lady Midday gets them before the day is over ...

A nice low budget double feature made up of two films that have remarkably little in common:

Chump Change is a intentionally sleazy and intentionally silly comedy that refuses to make too much sense - and that's exactly the point of the film, it doesn't need to make any sense, it's based on one joke that's played to the hilt and comes to an end before the single punchline has outstayed its welcome.

Lady M. on the other hand is a mood piece. There is very little room for even a hint of irony in this story, and it's shot as a silent - with narration though. It's heavy on atmorphere, carried by a strong and otherworldly performance by Kenyon Page, and garnered with the occasional outbreak of ultra-violence.

Each film in itself perfectly succeeds in what it's set out to do, but in all honesty, two films as different as they are from one another should not work well together - and yet, the combination works out just fine anyhow.

Nice!
