MAUSOLEUM
"I Satan, declare the first born women of the Nomed family to be cursed with Satany stuff and a really great rack!"
That's not actually in the movie but it is hinted at. So, here we have a 1983 family curse possession movie starring the lovely Marjoe Gortner and the blessed Bobbie Bresee with a bit of ol' Aunt Esther herself, Lawanda Page. Turns out the Nomed family has a curse that for some reason involves a mausoleum. You kids remember the Nomeds right? Sure, they lived across the street from the Natas' and behind that foreign family, the Bubelzeebs. Eventually, the curse starts acting up and Bobbie Bresee as Susan starts acting spooky enough to cause husband Marjoe Gortner to get concerned. After a disco dancing scene with Gortner that nobody asked for, she causes a drunk to burn to death in a car and to explode in some stock footage. Her eyes glow green when she gets the devil in her, and she tends to get naked and horny, too. Marjoe works a lot so Susan has got time on her hands to get demony and seduce the handyman. There's a really great montage sequence of what gardeners do during the day prior to him and Susan getting busy. A few deaths later and we get to the highlight, well one of the highlights, the demon titties. Our old friend John Carl Buechcler comes through with some demon titties that bite, it's pretty cool in an rubbery kind of way. As many of you know, black people are especially sensitive to hoodoo and what not so Lawanda Page's housekeeper senses mogambo and splits as she says "no more grievin', I'm leavin'". It's very much in the Mantan Moreland tradition. Love that Mantan! And let's hear it for Lawanda. Now where was I...oh yeah titties. So eventually Susan's shrink after a consult with a demonologist, comes up with a plan to end the curse.
I suppose I don't have to say that the reliable Gortner shows up for work again to deliver all he needs to. Bresee is a MILF and a half in the Marilyn Chambers mold so if you like that kind of stuff you're set. The actual demon is pretty much in the Buechler traditon so if you have seen his stuff in GHOULIES or TROLL then you know what I'm talking about. I used to get MAUSOLEUM confused with all the other horror flicks named after funeral service terms, your MORTUARY, your FUNERAL HOME and so on. I suppose as Bobbie Bresee vehicles go, it was okay enough. The disc comes with a commentary by Bresee and another feature, BLOOD SONG. It's part of the former WELCOME TO THE GRIND HOUSE series now called WELCOME TO THE EXPLOITATION or some such shit.
