Slaughtered Vomit Dolls 2006

The film opens with a home video of young Angela Aberdeen Ameara Lavey discussing the first time she appeared on television, a fragment that bleeds into present-day footage of Angela as the camera catches her in a tense, almost compulsive exchange with the unnamed cameraman. He pressures her to perform, and she consents, pulling the viewer into a deliberately disorienting blend of memories and manipulated reality. Across a jagged succession of cuts, Angela is shown being chokingly restrained and tormented, the violence intercut with flashbacks of her younger self, creating a chilling echo chamber of harm and complicity. She begs the cameraman not to hurt her, yet the act seems to hinge on the very harm she’s consenting to display. In a moment that frames the entire film’s central impulse, Angela recites the Lord’s Prayer while the pace of the footage accelerates, and she then declares a shocking pact with the devil, renouncing her Christian faith in a ritualized gesture of defiance.

Hail Satan.

From this macabre opening, the film slides into more grotesque tableaux that blur the line between performance, trauma, and memory. Angela, sitting on a toilet in her undergarments, collapses and begs for help, struggling to stand as the scene spirals into a bleak catalog of sexual commodification. A sequence unfolds in which Angela lists prices for various sexual acts, juxtaposed with a gonzo porn clip that interrupts the narrative with a harsher, more abrasive realism. The viewer is pulled further into a postmodern mosaic where the boundary between fiction and exploitation becomes a moving target.

The screen then shifts to a naked woman identified in the subtitles as Pig Pig Lizzy, a figure whose unsettling performances culminate in a brutal, almost ceremonial sequence. Subtitles claim she was executed on March 31st, 1994, and what follows is a graphic descent into violence that bleeds into Angela’s waking life. Pig cries and screams as her eyes are gouged out with a screwdriver, a violent act that is then used to repeatedly stab her in the head. The montage does not spare the viewer from the visceral horror, returning to Angela sleeping and speaking unintelligibly as the screen fills with more disturbing imagery. Pig’s distress reverberates across the film, and a later clip shows Pig vomiting on her own disembodied eyes, a disturbing image that lingers in the memory.

Angela’s self-conception becomes increasingly unstable as she calls herself a pig and asserts that she’s “not here,” a moment that is visually reinforced by a close-up of her vomiting into a toilet. The film then shifts to a moment of provocation: Angela, dressed in revealing clothing, asks for the cameraman’s name before stripping. A machete is pressed against her breast, a symbolic act that signals a descent into performative danger and self-destruction. The sequence grows more jagged as a disorienting montage floods the screen, and a subtitle announces “Execution 002: April 1st, 1994.”

An unidentified woman is shown bound to a chair as the cameraman approaches with a machete. The torture intensifies as a man wearing a cowboy hat cuts the bound woman with the blade, and the scene culminates with the woman’s face being removed, a stark image that reinforces the film’s unflinching commitment to graphic violence. The cameraman then writes the word “BLISTERS” on Angela’s body while she explains how she transitioned from stripper to prostitute, revealing the emergence of another identity, “Blisters.” The film presents a series of point-of-view shots that immerse the viewer in Angela’s fractured perspective as she proclaims that she doesn’t care whether she’s listed as a missing person. Angela’s sorrow and rage are expressed through a succession of crying fragments, and a chilling line is delivered as the cameraman presses closer: she whispers about burning down her neighborhood church at age thirteen.

The sequence continues with more scenes of Angela vomiting into a toilet and even singing backwards, juxtaposed with statements about her affinity for drunkenness. A clip labeled “Princess: executed; April 3rd, 1994” returns the focus to the figure of Princess Pam Pam McCartney as she discusses her life. The clip then shifts to torture and amputation: Princess Pam is shown enduring pain, and after her arm is amputated she is handed a guitar, only to discover she can no longer play it. A man is seen vomiting on a mirror, and he then shoves the severed arm down his throat in a grotesque act meant to induce vomiting into a glass from which he drinks. The film continues to pile on images of pain, with Angela vomiting blood and applying makeup as her younger self appears on the television screen, a reminder of the fractured line between past and present.

The adult Angela then strips on a pole and asserts that she will do whatever the cameraman asks, a moment that emphasizes the coercive dynamic at the heart of the film’s narrative structure. A second unidentified woman has her throat slit and writhes on the floor, while another man vomits on the floor before his head is sawed open. A further image shows a man eating brains and vomiting into his own skull cavity, a sequence that compounds the film’s relentless exploration of consumption and horror. Intercut with these scenes are more moments of Angela’s vulnerability—vomiting, talking about her sexual abuse, and the constant refrain of execution-like imagery—until a final montage of the earlier unidentified women being executed is presented in a relentless loop.

The film closes with an intensely intimate, almost spiritual resignation: Angela drowns herself in a bathtub, while her child self remains visible on the television screen, a haunting reminder of the enduring echo of trauma across generations. Through these dangerous, unflinching images, the film constructs a harrowing meditation on identity, abuse, and the ways memory can be weaponized within the frame of documentary-like violence.

Notes on cast appearances:

• Angela Aberdeen is portrayed by Ameara Lavey.

• The character Pig is performed by Pig Lizzy.

• Princess Pam is performed by Pam McCartney.

The result is a challenging, dense endurance test that refuses to pull its punches, presenting a raw, unsettled meditation on selfhood, exploitation, and the spectral persistence of past traumas. The film’s blunt, unvarnished approach makes it a difficult watch, but it is presented here in a clear, accessible way to help readers understand its structure, motifs, and peak moments without gloss or euphemism.
