Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Vomitron_G Wretched, rancid, horrible pile of steaming insufferable trash.I would recommend this film to anybody who might show an interest in the following three things:-- Fully naked girls with or without hairy armpits, drugged out of their mind on heroin, used for sex and torture.-- An ugly, sick and disgusting peeping-tom dwarf that looks like the miniature version of Jack Black.-- An old 'cabaretière'. Yes, this film features utterly pointless scenes of cabaret performed by an old hag (who is the mother of the dwarf).Since I have no particular interest in any of the aforementioned three things, this movie was an extremely painful and dull watch.All these things take place in a run-down pension of which the attic is the right place for the most sickest portrayals. The drugs get administered to the girls by the old hag and her dwarf. The girls get raped by random, unknown men. Between all these acts of decadence, there is some sort of story line involving a couple moving into a room of the pension. He is a struggling author which we never see write anything. She's his cute blonde bimbo girlfriend who does nothing. They have sex in their bed and eat breakfast in their room. Also insert random scenes of the old hag and her granny friend getting drunk and acting senile. It's sick of me to write this, but the old hag her boobs were still in very good shape.I have a confession to make... I'm actually writing this review while I'm still watching the movie. It's not finished yet. Still playing. That's because it got me bored and aggravated at the same time. Especially the last thing is what got me on here writing this drivel myself. Right now, the cute blonde bimbo just went up the attic alone. Now that was to be expected, wasn't it? She can't open the door, but she tells the enslaved ladies that she'll get the police. Yeah, right. Let's see if that's gonna happen. Oops! She just knocked over a toy train, making some noise. There's the old hag coming up. They capture her. The dwarf gets all excited, rips open her blouse. And now they've got her in chains. This movie's actually getting better. Aw crap, the scene ends. Back to the old hag typing a letter. I think she's got an evil scheme. Sorry, I'm watching the rest of the movie now. I'll be back later.Alright, I'm back. More sex, drugs & torture. Also for the newly enslaved cute blonde girl. The dwarf even did something very nasty (and pretty painful from the looks of it) with his walking cane. You can probably guess what. Now, you simply don't do that to a girl unless she asks for it. And blonde cute girl wasn't asking. Bad dwarf, very bad dwarf. He also drooled in that scene. I'm just saying this because I'm sure there's people out there that like drooling dwarfs.But this movie has a good ending. It got less boring and I really liked the ending. People even die before the movie's over. Yay!Also, as inexplicable as it may seem, the director, or writer, or whomever was responsible for it, really had some notion of concepts like 'set-up' and 'pay-off'. Why was the boyfriend a struggling writer? Just so because the old hag could type a letter on his type-writer. Why had the sinful dwarf toys to play with? Just so cute blonde girl could trip over a toy train and get busted in the attic. Now that's good script writing, boys and girls. In all good films, things happen for a reason. And it's no different in THE SINFUL DWARF.Just one more funny random thing: The writer of this abhorring piece of cinema, is named William Mayo (or Bill Mayo for friends). Now, "mayo" is short for "mayonaise". That's a sauce especially Belgian people like to put on their french fries. I'm Belgian. And he's called Mayo. That makes me laugh. But I don't like 'mayonaise' at all. I prefer cocktail sauce on my french fries. So that means something close to it being written in the stars that I was not going to like this movie very much. Don't you love a good bit of warped logic every now and then?Okay, let's see... THE SINFUL DWARF is demented and perverted, I'll give it that much. Demented + Perverted. That's 1+1. One extra point for all the totally naked girls because they looked cute. Meaning: 3/10. Equals a wonderful film. Aw, scratch that. I'm just gonna go with Perverted & Demented. That's 2/10. Still a wonderful film.Nevertheless, I'd rather be high on heroin and used as a sex slave myself than to ever watch this depraved movie again. I'm serious. Where's the drugs to get me messed up? Where's the girl that will ride me? Bring it on, I'd say! Damnit, I'm feeling so foul and perverted now I'm in strong need of a shower to wash away the filth.

ElijahCSkuggs There's probably three classes of people who've watched this flick. First (the sickest group) is the people who find dwarfs or midgets funny,entertaining or arousing in anything, so they hunted this bad boy down. Second is people who want to see bizarre exploitation flicks. And thirdly, people who just stumbled onto this because they've got nothing better going on. Well, you can put me in class two, and maybe three a little bit. I'm just one who doesn't find the sight of small people to be immediate entertainment. This has come to bite me in the ass a couple times because of people's over-zealousness towards movies with our little brothers to the south. Don't get me wrong though, I love all things Warwick Davis.In this case though, our little pal Torben (RIP) delivers a sweet, little, and evil performance. Olaf (played by Torben) is his mother's gopher and that he goes out and gets girls to lock up in their attic/sex/dungeon. Olaf doesn't mind, because you know he's having fun with these girls once in a while. He he he. Well fortunately for Olaf and Mama, two down-on-their-luck lovebirds come knocking on the door. And it's only a matter of time before Olaf and Mommy conjure up some evil plans.The Sinful Dwarf is a really solid exploitation flick that delivers a great weirdo performance by Torben, some eXXXtra nice sex scenes (that definitely helped the pace of the film), a gritty and sleazy atmosphere and a surprisingly fun story. Who doesn't like tales of evil perverts (in this case a dwarf) kidnapping the town lovelies whom are whored out to customers so they can afford the bills. And I haven't even mentioned the tactic they use to keep the girls quiet and subdued. Brilliant!Heading into this flick, I kind of had low expectations. I'm not a sucker so the term dwarfsploitation only has so much affect on me. All I hoped for was a solid and perverted ride, and that's what I got. I do have to mention the XXX scenes once again. I really do think it helped the film. The movie is slightly slow-moving, so having these sex scenes in there definitely spruced things up a bit. And with Anne Sparrow (unfortunately her only role) taking her clothes off at a high rate, it's fun watching. Don't hesitate to watch The Sinful Dwarf. Just make sure you know which version you're watching. Because there is a version out there without the graphic sex. Just sayin.

MisterWhiplash ...but then again that's exploitation cinema for you. The Sinful Dwarf has a great cover on the video-box, and a great guy playing the dwarf, with a face like Jack Black squished with Dennis Hopper ala Blue Velvet demeanor. He's totally crazy and wicked, and it's a delight whenever he's let loose on screen (the scene where he uses his cane, manually so to speak, on one of the junky prostitutes is a scream). But the problem is that there isn't quite enough of him, or with the little weird dolls and toys, except as symbols. The story is thin as a rail: a married couple who like to 'do-it' a lot (as Olof looks on), and the old woman who runs the whore-house in the attic where women are naked and doped up for the customers wants to get her husband out of the way so she can bring her in on it- by sneakiness, of course, and the woman's own curiosity about the whole place being as creepy as a, uh, Denmark heroin-laded whorehouse.The sex, for some, will be part of the fun in the sleazy-term of it. But it just went on for much too long for each segment (yeah, we get it, sex takes a while, move it along, more dwarf!) And it just becomes tedious, shot in a style that is of the bargain basement variety where the director's ideas include having the woman- being raped while totally dazed and burned out on junk- to be to kick wildly over and over while the guy humps away. This is almost like an exploitation story William S. Burroughs would write- on a bad day. It's fun in spurts, especially in the opening and closing ten minutes. But there's a lot of downtime where we're watching stupid humans talking, a lot, and it's not as much fun. The sex isn't Porno Holocaust bad, don't get me wrong. But there's also a reason it's as obscure as it is- it's got the good title and premise and no strong follow-through. If it did, we might have come across dear Olaf sooner, who makes such a crazy impression that he makes the flick worth watching on his own (that and one or two pairs of 'assets' on the ladies for skin-flick fans).Bottom line, it's another oddity- the only credited film for the director and writers- where it's dirty, cheap and crude, and with barely the minimum of guilty-pleasure status. 4.5/10

Coventry Why, in heaven's name, would anyone want to watch a trashy movie about a perverted midget who keeps heroine-addicted girls imprisoned in his attic? Well personally, I had TWO damn good reasons to track this sick movie down! First of all because it's generally known as a unique and ultra-rare exploitation gem, or more particularly, "the reigning king of dwarfsploitation cinema", like my fellow reviewer teptime put it so poetically! Secondly, I have a bizarre phobia of "little people" and every film featuring dwarfs, whether horror or another genre, simply scares the hell out of me. So, if I ever need a reason to justify why I watch sick stuff like this, I'll just claim it was part of my therapy! Hence, despite that the screenplay doesn't really focus on tension or atmosphere, I found this movie to be rather unsettling at times. Olaf, portrayed by the Danish actor Torben Bille, certainly isn't the most freaky-looking dwarf in horror cinema history (his face strangely resemblances that of comedian Jack Black, actually), but he has quite an evil laugh and his dedication towards noisy children's toys truly sent cold shivers down my spine. Olaf lives together with his mother and runs a boarding house. As a slightly more profitable profession, they also have an attic full of attractive young girls that serve as prostitutes for a selected group of customers. Olaf keeps the girls calm and willing by injecting heroine up their veins and offering them toys. Their business becomes endangered when a young couple moves into the house and questions the strange sounds coming from the attic. "The Sinful Dwarf" is an extremely sleazy motion picture, with raw female full frontal nudity in nearly every sequence and a gigantic amount of rapes, beatings and vile torture. Other than that, there's very little to see here and the pace is too frequently undercut by overlong and dire scenes of Olaf's mother and some other granny thinking back about their glorious days as cabaret singers. How this is relevant in any possible way, don't even ask… The young couple, especially the girl, are surprisingly likable characters and their acting skills aren't even that bad. The picture quality is very poor and the sound regularly fell out, but hey, the immeasurable cult-value makes up for pretty much everything. "The Sinful Dwarf" is an absolute must for collectors, sick puppies and – not to forget – other people with a inexplicable fear for little persons.
