A Bring Out the GIMP (Girls in Merciless Peril) Movie Review


Rest Stop 2

Reviewed by LTL


Mini mainstream review of Rest Stop 2

On a short leave from the military, Tom and his girlfriend Marilyn plan a trip out west to L.A. On the way, they plan to retrace the route taken by his brother, who went missing a year earlier. Tom’s friend tags along as he has had a long standing crush on Nichol, Tom’s brother’s girlfriend who also went missing. Along the way they stop at a gas station where Tom shows a picture of the missing couple to the store owner. “Yeaugh I remember them…for $24.95 I'll tell you everything I know.” They follow the lead they are given and end up having to stop at a rest stop where Marilyn needs to use the facility. When she finishes, Tom is nowhere to be found. Sound familiar so far?

Isn't it funny how both male characters disappear after the girls use the facilities in both parts 1 and 2. Actually more unimaginative than funny I think. They could have, at the very least, reversed the roles and have the female disappear while the guy uses the john. I know they would have ended up with an entirely different picture at that point….but more likely, and quite possibly, a better one.

Only one Gimp scene here as Jessie Ward who plays Marilyn, and a major improvement over the girl in the first one IMO, has a nice segment where she gets tied AOH in a seated spread position and tortured with a power drill.

Entertainment wise: I thought the first one was average at best. IMO, this one is a step in the wrong direction as it suffers from an identity crisis, not knowing whether to be a torture sequel, or a ghost story. An actress shows up who is supposed to be Nichol from the first one, who ends up having sex with the lame friend. Though she appears full-bodied, she’s actually a ghost. I say lame friend because even Marilyn comments “Wow, you finally get laid…and she’s a ghost.”

This one is also another example of the horrid trend of equal-opportunity torture films, as it has 3 or 4 guy bound/torture scenes. Grade, an all too average C

Gimp wise: No nudity in the Gimp scene as Jesse Ward’s segment has her tied in bra and panties. Fairly long for a mainstream though. She is first forced to watch as her friend has his eye removed, and then she herself gets tortured with the drill. A little too gory for my tastes as they actually drill her a few times. Grade C+
