The Three Marias (2004)

Wow, this really sucks. It takes a surefire B-cheese premise (women avenging themselves on the killers of their husband/father/sons/brothers) and absolutely buries it under a landslide of crap dialogue and heavy-handed direction and inadequate acting and pretentious religious symbolism. Junk like this should be played fast and loose with a sense of fun, but everyone in this film has a better poker face than Chris Ferguson. Comes alive a bit during the reversal-of-premise climax, but shit is still shit even if there's candy sticking out of the end of it.

Grade: D
