Shortly after one of the girls working at a strip club in the Californian desert is killed her sister Rose arrives to find out what happened. Working with Becky, the club's owner, she is determined to find the man responsible and kill him. That man, Hank, decides it is best to kill them first. To that end he puts a multimillion dollar bounty on their heads. Soon every hitman (and hit-woman) in the area is after Rose and Becky. If that weren't enough the cops are also after them.
This is not a good film. It looked as if it might be trashy but fun but it really is just one for connoisseurs of bad cinema. There are a few parts that will generate a laugh but only if one is laughing at it rather than with it. The plot is okay as far as these things go but the delivery just doesn't work. The acting is less than great; although given the dialogue the cast is expected to deliver one can't blame them too much. There is plenty of action but again it feels phoney; sometimes firearms appear to have zero recoil while at others it is ridiculously exaggerated... and that's minor compared to a character taking a chainsaw to a gunfight! By the time we got to the final confrontation I had little interest in who survived and who died. Overall I'd advise giving this one a miss unless you and a some mates have had a few too many drinks and want something trashy to laugh at.

Cold Blooded Killers
Watchable, albeit mindless action flick...
Of course when you sit down to watch a movie such as "Killer Rose" (aka "Cold Blooded Killers") it is mainly because it has low budget movie stars Caroline Williams and Felissa Rose on the cast list.
Well, first of all the storyline told in "Killer Rose" is actually not all that bad. Sure, it was plagued by subpar dialogue writing, but the concept idea of the storyline and plot was actually adequate. And it certainly made for an okay action movie.
Let's face it, the storyline, while being entertaining enough, just wasn't exactly rocket science. It was not a storyline that challenged the intellect of the viewer, nor did it require much of an attention span either to keep up to speed with what was going on. This was, pure and simply, mindless action.
The movie does suffer from a couple of things dragging it down. The dialogue for starters, it was just immature and hollow writing, which added very little depth to the characters that had to spew forth aforementioned dialogue. And also the fact that neither director or performers seemed to be well-traversed in knowing how firearms and recoil functions. It was just painful to watch the performers mill about throughout the movie and firing pistols, shotguns and rifles left and right, and yet there was little to no recoil at all. Actually, not much of any reloading going on either, come to think of it.
Some of the camera-work throughout the movie was definitely interesting and added some interesting angles to some scenes.
It should also be noted that the music they had in the movie was definitely good, and it was something that complimented the movie a great long way.
"Killer Rose" is a low budget action movie that definitely has spirit and potential. It could have been much more enjoyable, if they had tightened in the belt and upped the production and paid more attention to detail. And, of course, by having the dialogue completely re-written into something more fluid and believable.
I was actually adequately entertained by writer and director Rickey Bird Jr.'s 2021 movie. And I am rating it a four out of ten stars.
