TUBI CONTINUED… THE THIRSTING (2007) ***

Tina Krause stars as a sexy nun with a dark past who works at an all-girl Catholic School.  When a team of Catholic schoolgirls head out into the woods for volleyball practice, Tina tags along and acts as their chaperone.  Since they are preparing their thesis on ancient demons, they decide to fool around with black magic and try to summon the evil Lilith.  (“Think about the grade we could get if we interview a demon!”)  After lights-out, the girls strip down and hold a black magic ritual in their cabin, but it doesn’t work.  Or so they think.  That evening, they are all haunted by sexy nightmares in which their darkest desires drive them to their doom.  Said fantasies involve cheating boyfriends, Catholic schoolgirls being paddled in the nun’s office, back-alley plastic surgery, getting accosted in a strip club, and becoming a dominatrix and accidentally banging your father.

This was the second film in a row I watched on Tubi that involved an evil woman named Lilith that starred Tina Krause.  Not that I’m complaining.  Krause is really good here too.  She looks equally sexy while fully clothed in her nun’s habit or while completely nude.  I especially liked the scenes where she fantasized about the girls while they were in the shower and when she was tempted by the succubus while praying naked.  Sure, the ending is a little abrupt and a tad anticlimactic, but it doesn’t derail the movie or anything.  I mean, whatever its flaws, I can’t complain about any flick that features an amazing topless Catholic schoolgirls black mass ritual sequence.

Just when you think it can’t get any weirder, MICKEY ROONEY shows up as a kindly old groundskeeper who dispenses wisdom to the girls in their time of need.  You might think it’s odd that he shows up in something like this, but it’s really not that strange considering his memorable turn in Silent Night, Deadly Night 5:  The Toy Maker.  Even though he isn’t given a whole lot to do, his very appearance just adds to the film’s anything-goes appeal.  

AKA:  Lilith.
