1962. Last stop on the road to nowhere. A washed-up starlet, down to her last dime. A demented daughter out for revenge. Demons of darkness from the depths of hell. All this and music too!
Grade Z movie starlet Renee “a Go-Go” Flame, who received worldwide recognition for performing the twist with no underwear at the famed Peppermint Lounge in New York City, is on the run from a daughter she pinned a murder on, her double-crossing boyfriend and an ancient religious cult with a dark secret. It all culminates with blackmail, human sacrifice and dancing! Welcome to the world of Twisted, a fast and funny train ride to hell that pays homage not only to exploitation films of the early sixties but to the twisted underground theatre of the past. This “anything goes” dark comedy with songs was written by Joel Greenhouse and will be directed by Joe John Battista.
