This movie is very low-budget, and whoever said that the naked chick's breast were a turnoff is either a gay male or a female. The scene in which the two twisted lovers cut the girl's breast implants out is one of my favorites. Besides the nudity, the plot was really good: a band of murderers hide out in the house of a family that they take hostage, but they wind up being terrorized by an old woman who can't get out of bed. There is a shocking ending, which answers the question of why there is always footsteps coming from upstairs when the old lady cant walk. I recommend this movie to anyone who pays more attention to plot than special affects. The movie does appear to have been shot with a hand held camcorder, but it's worth seeing.

For those of you like me, who feel even R rated horror is to commercial, then Aunt rose is the film for you. Every single cast member delivers an excellent on the money performance, which is rare for a low budget movie featuring several newcomers. The thugs who invade the house and torture the poor family are made up of the leader Johnny Nelson who was very intimidating and believable, the crazy but sexy Velocity Chyaldd, and the misguided, but slightly more level headed Kevin T. Collins. What this movie does that so few ever touch upon, is giving a history of these villains, to show there troubled, abusive pasts, and how they came to be the sick sadistic monsters you see before you. The mother and father were also very realistic, they portray the family as loving, but also estranged somewhat with there teenage daughters life choices. When the family is taken hostage, you feel there desperation every step of the way, and root for them to come through it intact. The film is not quite as gory as I thought it would be, but the kills are very nasty, and cruel, and have a surprising impact on the audience. I must also mention Raine Brown who played the daughter's lesbian lover, in an excellent, and oddly non exploitive way. Keep an eye out for her, I predict she'll become a new genre staple alongside my personal favorite scream queens Debbie Rochon, and Tiffany Shepis. My only beefs with the film are as follows, for one I found in a few instances that some of the family members foolishly taunted, or provoked the murderers for no direct reason. I guess you don't know how a person would react to an invasion like that, but I just found myself questioning what the heck they were thinking. It kept me on the edge of my seat though, and made me think about what I would do, so maybe thats not such a bad thing. And finally, I felt the ending wasn't totally satisfying. Without spoiling anything, I just felt it lacked the impact it needed. A couple very minor instances aside, I highly recommend Aunt Rose to the hardcore horror crowd. It's one of the better acted low budget horrors I've seen in some time.

I don't know what that other reviewer was smoking, but this movie is not just bad, it's dreadful. I have watched possibly every low-rent, low-budget horror movie that has ever been produced, and this ranks among the worst. It was only out of a sort of train wreck curiosity that I continued watching this movie after the first five minutes. The acting is awful, just completely rank in the most amateurish fashion... not to mention being subject to seeing a very unattractive woman expose herself to the camera. Look, I realize that overseas markets really go for breasts, but let's be honest here -- do we really want to see that? The entire film is just a disaster, from start to finish. It's amusing enough for the completely D grade cheesiness of it, but if you're looking for a good horror movie, this just doesn't measure up in any way, shape, or form.

As far as low budget independent horror movies go, this one is pretty good. Its clear a lot of love went into it, and its shortcomings all seem more due to financial constraints than any lack of talent (its limited locations, with nearly no establishing shots is amongst the easiest budget indicators). The characters (some acted much better than others) are all unique, and for once, not carbon copies of every other horror cast out there. Great dialogue ensues, and a great deal more character depth than most horror fare treats us too (those are good things, if you want mindless splatter, steer clear, this one actually has some depth to our pro and antagonists) While much of the movie is left in the dark (why are the psychos on this current run from the law, and why do they draw even more attention to themselves by killing friends and family along the escape route?, why is Aunt Rose a magical old hag, and why has no one ever stumbled on her monstrous son in their own home?) Long story short, great writing, decent (and sometimes great) acting, decent fx and bloodshed, couple pairs of really decent tits, and a lot more character driven story than the vast majority of DVD horror out there. The DVD itself is kinda dry, a dull behind the scenes feature with a few cute crew moments, and a few of the cut special effects, some deservedly deleted scenes, and nothing else. No trailers, no interviews, no commentary, but still definitely worth the rental.
