BLOGTOBER 10/25/2022: SCREAM FOR HELP

This is a fucking doozy.

Tom Holland wrote this picture about a girl in trouble that, in some ways, will be familiar to his fans: Like Andy in CHILD'S PLAY and Charlie in FRIGHT NIGHT, Christie (Rachael Kelly) uncovers a horrible secret right in her own neighborhood, but none of the adults will believe her. Christie's handsome, charismatic stepfather Paul (David Allen Brooks) is plotting to murder her and her wealthy mother Karen (Marie Masters); all Christie has to do is prove it, which is easier said than done. In the process of trying, she uncovers a multilayered conspiracy, forcing her and her mother to team up against a gang of dangerous psychopaths.

My husband goes, "She's on the diving team."

So, that's all well and good. Tom Holland sets up what feels like a pretty solid, if overly involved teen thriller befitting the Lifetime Network…but the thing is, SCREAM FOR HELP is directed by Michael Winner, of DEATH WISH 1-3 fame. Which means that, in execution, this is a sordid, sadistic exploitation movie that crosses several lines in short order. When Christie realizes that Paul has been setting up deadly accidents meant for her mother, she begins to spy on him, and discovers that he is having a hot and heavy affair with a temptress named Brenda (Lolita Lesheim). Christie's mother won't believe her, and neither do her best friends, Janey (Sandra Clark) and her boyfriend Josh (Corey Parker). However, Josh eventually gets on board after Janey is gruesomely killed by a hit and run driver literally seconds after telling Christie that Josh knocked her up, and it feels like only seconds after that that Christie gives Josh her virginity in a disturbingly porny scene that makes you ask how old the actors are and if their parents knew they were making this movie. Raunchy sex is frequently interspersed with women getting smacked around violently, and you start to get a vivid sense of why Michael Winner has such a reputation for being an asshole. Eventually the whole thing devolves into a brutal home invasion scenario, with a gonzo ending that I thought had to be a dream, but which was not.

This is Rocco Sisto's first movie, whatever that means to ya.

I've focused on the discrepancy between Tom Holland's and Michael Winner's artistic sensibilities, but there is a third creator here who is just as responsible for making SCREAM FOR HELP into the bizarre monstrosity that it is: John Paul Jones, the bassist for Led Zeppelin. Jones provided the score for this movie, and while it is so over the top that it approaches the level of parody, it perfectly matches the film's sleazy, delirious tone. You kind of have to hear it to believe it, a combination of swingin' London swagger and scummy rock menace that is patently absurd, which is exactly what SCREAM FOR HELP deserves.

Obviously I don't have anything deep to say about this movie, and if I did, it might mean that I'm insane. It is definitely something to see, though, and it is recommended viewing for anyone who enjoys astonishment and confusion.

Scream for Help (1984)

[danydarkly]

Hello lovely Anon! Not at all a weird question, in fact I love this question, this was really fun to think about (even if it took a lot of thinking, as I haven’t actually thought about it before, at least in terms of face claims).   Honestly, if I were to choose, I’d definitely prefer animation hands down (for several reasons). It was like a no-brainer for me to pick voice actors for Leikos and Scarlett, partially because animating them to pre-existing properties and really listening to the audio carved some cannon voices in my mind.    Part of what makes the Never Talk To Strangers sequence from Red Riding Hood (1989) work really well as a prequel to Wolf Song (aside from the obvious connection of Little Red Riding Hood) is the similarity of the voices from the actors in that film to the singers in Omnia’s Wolf Song track.   Which is why for Leikos’s voice I would HANDS DOWN and without hesitation pick Rocco Sisto, who is the actor behind Red Riding Hood (1989)’s wolf. Not only does he have experience playing a wolf in a Little Red Riding Hood adaptation, he is also a voice actor. And call it Stockholm Syndrome from the repeated times I have been listening to his voice while animating Leikos’s lipsyncs for the prequel, but I am in love with his voice. It’s deep and soothing and absolutely perf, I can listen to him talk all day. Here’s a clip of him talking. He will always be the cannon voice for Leikos in my mind <3    As for Scarlett, I would pick Brina Palencia. She is absolutely one of my favourite voice actors in anime and she has excellent range. I don’t need to say anymore, she’s also perf, look up her IMDB, if you like watching your anime in english dub, chances are you have heard her voice before.   Alrighty, now here comes the hard part, face claims. I gave this a lot of thought and I’m not nearly as sure about these as I am about the voice actors I have listed so bear with me, haha. But if we’re going on pure aesthetics alone.... Rupert Friend as Leikos:

He’s like the closest actor I could think of that I feel can pull off Leikos’s look and facial structure (also I personally think he’s a very handsome boi, fight me). And Bella Heathcote as Scarlett:

I think she’s really pretty and I like her face shape AND she can pull off red hair and bangs, which is super important of course.   So these are my choice voice actors and actors (sorry if this post is long). I’m pretty firm for my VA choices, haha, but I’m open to other face claim ideas you all may have. This was super fun to think about, thanks for asking and stay awesome, Anon~

Rocco Sisto

This is a movie that I heard about on a few podcasts so I added it to my list for 2021. I thought this has an interesting premise, but doesn't necessarily do anything new. It was worth a watch still. Have you gotten around to seeing this one? What did you think?
