elvira slot machine – Elvira: Mistress Elvira: Mistress of the Dark

Elvira busts out in her outrageously funny feature film debut. Wise-cracking vamp, Elvira, wants to put on a show in Las Vegas but she’s short $50,000, so when she learns that her wealthy Aunt Morgana has just died, she rushes off to old-fashioned, conservative Falwell, Massachusetts, for the reading of the will. In typical Elvira fashion, she can’t help but stir things up when she makes her appearance in Falwell. Cassandra Peterson stars in this sexy comedy hit, filled with wild wisecracks, campy chaos and scary movie spoofs, all poured into the lowest-cut black gown in horror movie history!

The audience for this rickety spoof is probably limited to three groups: diehard fans of Elvira, cultists of ’60s horror (specifically the Edgar Allan Poe and Hammer offerings), and people who believe rim-shot, borscht belt humor ought to be brought back. The last group apparently includes Cassandra Peterson, the comedian who dreamed up Elvira; her fondness for vaudeville one-liners is either groan-worthy or infectious, depending on your tolerance for such things. Sample: “The village people say this castle is evil.” “Ah, who listens to the Village People any more?” Ouch. Her Mae-West-meets-Vampira shtick wears surprisingly well at feature length (1988’s Elvira, Mistress of the Dark is actually a pretty good time), although this movie simply runs out of material halfway through. Bonus: Rocky Horror genius Richard O’Brien contributes some amusing ravings as a mysterious Carpathian castle owner, pining away for a dead wife who suspiciously resembles our heroine. –Robert Horton
