A devil-worshiping woman sends out her four beautiful nieces to lure men back to her place so they can be killed, ground up and sold as meat pies.
Auntie Lee’s Meat Pies was exactly the kind of lunatic family ‘it’s in the meat!’ hokum I was In the mood for tonight… a wild, dark humored horror cannibal comedy jam that nails those very specific over the top ‘irresistibly entertaining to idiot morons like me’ vibes I dig so much.
I Love seeing Karen Black in anything and this kinda feels like a precursor to her Mama Firefly character and that’s not a complaint either—I LOVE her in that movie… in fact, I’d say fans of Rob Zombies House of 1000 Corpses (but with a hornier edge) might want to seek this out ASAP… it’s like someone poured Texas Chainsaw Massacre II, Mother’s Day, Motel Hell, and Blood Diner into a blender.…
I mean, this is movie where Queen Karen Black plays a satanist who has her nieces (of various ethic backgrounds so good for her!) kill men and turn them into meat pies that are famous for their delicious flavor.
This is also directed by a porn director and stars Teri Weigel of very heavy 90’s porn fame.
And there’s a scene where Teri makes a guy watch her feed her pet rattlesnake a rat before a giant set of snake fangs impales him.
Oh! And one of the bedrooms in Auntie Lee’s house is a NEON recreation of Stonehenge.
I ask you in all sincerity: what is there not to love??
Wow, this was fantastic! I mean, it's schlock of course, but it's great schlock. What I liked most about this horror comedy, aside from Karen Black being the cannibalistic aunt to a group of cannibalistic "nieces" (all of whom portrayed by Playboy Playmates), was the weird dubbing. Sheriff Pat Morita, with his heavy Southern accent, cracked me up especially. It also helps that the actual dialogue is super entertaining (and pretty raunchy at times too).
Ridiculous amounts of fun watching this with Aiah and Adrian.
It's easy to be reductive and say this is like Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 as made by a porn director, but it's true! A cannibalistic horror comedy from Sweet Cheeks and Debbie Does Dallas III director Joseph F. Robertson where Karen Black plays Auntie Lee and makes meatpies out of men who are lured home by her four nieces (all played by Playboy Playmates) and her dimwitted brother who talks to tires is played by Michael Berryman. And it's up to Pat Morita as the town sheriff to stop them!
This might not rival the insanity of TCM2 but it does feature a shitty metal band breaking down in their convertible while singing "young tight sweet stuff" only to be…
Ngl, I would totally risk being turned into a meat pie if it meant that I could hang with t̶h̶e̶s̶e̶ ̶h̶a̶w̶t̶ ̶b̶a̶b̶e̶s̶ sheriff* Pat Morita. I know ACAB, but he just got this super chill vibe, you know? I could totally see us drink a couple of cold ones and shoot some pool.
Fun times watching Auntie Lee's Meat Pies with Michelle.
*I mean, he basically is a cowboy. 🇯🇵🤠
No such thing as free pizza, guys. I still think vegan chicks are more likely to serve your balls on a platter, but this isn't meant to be realistic.
Lots to chew on, my freaks. It's like Rinse Dream was brought in to replace Tobe Hooper. Another erotic cannibal flick that I'm glad I didn't watch prior to Vinegar Syndrome's masterful restoration. The final act boils over with spicy set pieces that should appeal to fans of more outrageous foodie horror comedies like Blood Diner and Microwave Massacre. 7.4/10
Now when someone asks me why I'm vegan—if it's for environmental, ethical, or health reasons—I'm just going to whisper, "Auntie Lee's pies..." and stare off into space.
What a grody little flick, playing like a porn parody of Texas Chainsaw 2 if partway through production, the director leapt up from his chair, threw his little beret in the dirt, and exclaimed, "I never wanted to be a pornographer, I wanted to be a goremeister!" and proceeded to shoot something that could totally exist in Hooper's world.
Karen Black kills it as this film's Drayton, and I like the idea of replacing Grandpa with a big baby. There's no Stretch analog (thought it might be that vegetarian vagabond for a bit,…
An early 90s direct to video fever dream of campy carnage Auntie Lee's Meat Pies is a real treat! It takes many 80s horror ingredients and pan fries them with an added dose of cheese whizz and LSD! Something ain't right with this film and I love it! Tonally bizarre with high dosages of quirky weirdery and dark humor Meat Pies is an oddball relic of the video store era.
Karen Black plays an eccentric Satanist that has hired her voluptuous nieces to lure men back to their home to be slaughtered and made into meat pies! Holy snikeys! And just wait until the metal band shows up! Hoooeyy things get wild. Those beautiful gals trap those men into all…
Good evening and welcome fellow Children of Chaos.
Watched for the Crap movie Collective.
You know I was never into the whole ACAB thing, but after Sherriff Koal took poor Larry's badge. FUCK THE POLICE.
For real, like I felt legit bad for the guy, he just wanted to be a police man and punish bad people, like the ones that make fun of him.
This is a stupid, sexy, horror comedy that isn't stupid, sexy, funny, or horrory (?) enough. When the stupid band shows up the movie slows to a fucking halt. It shows us some nice boobage I guess, but it is boring as fuck.
At least Koal got his.
Koal K-O-A-L.
Until next time this is the Sage S-A-Y-G-E
Those pies have a lot of the bad boy, that's why they are so tasty.
Karen Black is fantastic as Auntie Lee. Every member of her family are beauts. I was so fascinated by their bedrooms, like entering a new realm but with a slaughtering slab in every one.
Normally these films put me off my nibbles, but I felt quite hungry. Nom nom nom
If you blended TCM2, Motel Hell, and Blood Diner up in a meat grinder and tossed in the style and feel of an Andy Sidaris flick for flavor, you’d get Auntie Lee’s Meat Pies, a delicious early 90s horror/comedy hybrid.
Auntie Lee’s Meat Pies is an utterly certifiable flick, stuffed full of creative kills and gore, Karen Black leading a family full of cannibal satanists played by Playboy playmates, inventive set design done on a budget, Pat Morita as a local police chief, and Micheal Berryman who spends most of his screen time alternating between having a conversation with or screaming at a car tire. The finale is fantastic and the movie has an end credit sequence I’m betting influenced Robert Rodriguez’s ending to From Dusk Till Dawn.
This is some surreal shit. I’d recommend it!
Adored this so much, mostly because I just love Karen Black to death and the idea of her being my satan-worshipping, cannibalistic man-killing aunt is just the best thing I could possibly think of. I also LOVE the shitty hair metal band that sings "men are superior, women are inferior, come on baby, I ain't no square, look at me, I got really long hair" - sadly sounds like a man I would unironically take home w me.
