Horror musicals are awesome. Killer mermaids are awesome. A horror movie about killer mermaids who sing? Sign me the fuck up.A pair of sirens, Silver (Marta Mazurek) and Golden (Michalina Olszanska), are added to a Warsaw cabaret show by Krysia (Kinga Preis) and her band as a new, exotic act. The girls are open to new opportunities but Silver soon sets her heart on Mietek (Jakob Gierszal) while Golden is more of a dine-on-hapless-men-and-dash kind of girl.
My favorite part of this is how no one in Poland blinks at having monsters in their midst. These two broads sprout tails as soon as they get splashed and nobody so much as blinks, much less questions it. My second favorite part is the opening credits, which are gorgeous and creepy. I would hang stills of them on my walls. The music is good and there's a decent amount of gore. Also, there is a lot of nudity. Like, 90% of the time, these chicks are naked so maybe don't watch it in front of children or old people. They're so impressionable.
Best movie of the month so far. It's currently streaming on the Criterion Channel.
