Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers (1988)

Let me state for the record, I like Fred Olen Ray. He is a constant, a good guy and someone who truly loves movies. He is the real deal and also let me say that Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers is easily one of the best films of the d-grade comedy-horror genre.

It’s a send up of film noir thrillers with offbeat comedy in the vein of “The Naked Gun” films and is genuinely hilarious from start to finish. The story revolves around Jack Chandler, a private eye in Hollywood who is hired to find a missing girl. However, his search leads him to a cult of chainsaw weilding prostitutes led by none other than Gunnar Hansen (Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre).

There are plenty of weird and wacky scenes, pieced together by corny film noir narration and music, and the narration and dialogue in the film is extremely witty.

Definitely one of the best films of its type. If you are after a fun little comedy/horror film with the typical fix of nudity, corny one liners and gore which is genuinely funny and clever, this should be on top of your list.
