Synopsis
Insanity is The Diagnosis... Revenge is The Cure
Mean and domineering Jane and the sweet and ditsy Jackie are two radically contrasting sisters who suffer from severe trauma after witnessing the murder/suicide of their parents as well as seeing their other sibling Janice raped and killed by her assailants. The pair are deemed fit to re-enter society and get released from a sanitarium where they have undergone extensive rehabilitation therapy. However, Jane and Jackie prove to be anything but sane and harmless as they embark on a vicious spree in which they torture, murder, and mutilate any man luckless enough to cross their lethal paths.

Review by 13beersl8r ★★
If at first you don't succeed. SOV reboot with a marginally better approach. Trades in Whitson's keen eye for the high waisted white cotton granny panty enthusiast for dialed up campy kills and Troma style characterizations. Wasn't really a big fan of the first one but at least it had that authentic low class sleazy feel, like you found the tape in a dumpster somewhere. This sort of smells corporate. No Sutch, no soul.

Review by 𝔑𝔬𝔠𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔫𝔞 🌙 ★★★
bizarro remake of psycho sisters '94 missing all the w.a.v.e. charm and instead plays out like an edgy neo-grunge slasher. don't get me wrong, it's still traumatized chicks chopping off dicks, but despite upping the gore, sex and production value, it feels like a cold sterile overly-calculated reproduction of the original.

Review by Michael Shawn ★★★
Exponentially better, and bigger-budgeted, than the 1994 version of the story, this Psycho Sisters redeems writer/director Pete Jacelone somewhat. Gone are the rambling ad-libbing, the unstructured scenes, the cheap sets and effects, everything that would earmark it as a micro-budgeted film. In its place, we get a healthy budget with competent actors, a completed screenplay, convincing gore, and a filmic look instead of SOV. It improves this particular story in every way, primarily in how it fleshes out the girls' story and even includes a budding romance for Jackie. Plus, supporting character arcs! It's a movie, y'all! And it's an entertaining one, for the most part. It still has minor drawbacks that afflict any low-budget effort, but in the realm…

Review by James
Pete Jacelone and James L. Edwards team up with the E.I. Independent/Alternative Cinema crew to remake Jacelone's weirdo W.A.V.E. rape revenge tale and there's A LOT going on in this one.
Three sisters are attacked by a bunch of dudes and one of them is raped and murdered in front of the other two. Those two are released from the hospital early and take it upon themselves to teach mankind a lesson one chopped off dick at a time. There are also cop, biker, and romantic subplots thrown in for good measure in between the stabbings. Come for the dick mutilation, stay for the wild climactic shootout.

Review by Josh ★★★½
"Just because I hate men does not mean I want to munch carpet."
After witnessing their parents untimely deaths, being sexually assaulted, and their sister being murdered, Jane and Jackie both spent time in a psychiatric institution until they were deemed well and sane enough to return to society. Jane is the least trusting of men while Jackie wants to move forward in life and start trusting men in relationships, but the two look to avenge their sisters murder by seeking out dangerous men and killing them off one by one.
Originally an early 90s short film which expanded to a shot on video feature film and then remade several years later on 16mm film, Psycho Sisters is just as…

Review by Bob McQueen ★★★
It's a bigger budget (still low budget) trashier remake of the original SOV film and its kinda fun. It owns its ridiculousness and has boobs & blood.
Hope that Cult of Psycho Sisters gets made/released or whatever. -

Review by Dustin Baker ★★★½
Quite an interesting experiment, to remake your own film a few years later in better video quality, turning a kink film into something more legit. The choice to replace the requisite WAVE fetish beats by amping up the insanity and cheeky sense of humor was the absolute best choice to make, single-handedly turning this into a future schlock fave to rewatch within one viewing. It begins a little stodgy, making me wonder if it was going to attempt to adhere closer to the stuffy Skinemax style of thriller, but as it rolls it adds more and more little MAD Magazine gas and one-liners (Newspaper headline: "Bodies of Tom and Harry Found. Dicks Missing") before it culminates in both a murder…

Review by Doom DeLuise ★★★
"Oh the humanity of it." (delivered with the zero emotion)
a confessed rapist gets killed and then has his dick cut off less than five minutes into this. winner!
there's some pretty decent gore effects in here.

Review by Warren ★
Just like anyone who looked at several issues of Fangoria in the late nineties, I saw more than a few ads for this movie. It was before I knew how to guess what kind of trash was going to be enjoyable and what kind was not. Thankfully, I never plonked down the 20 or 30 bucks they were asking for this tape back then. However, I did run into it for a buck last year and grabbed it to satisfy a curiosity that went back about 15 years.
What this movie proves is that if you have enough money to make a low budget feature, and you spend the bulk of it on two women who have a couple screen…
