SRS BLU-RAY RELEASE: Death-scort Service: Trinity (2015, 2017,

In a dark and twisted tale set in Las Vegas, a deranged slasher targets a group of aspiring young escorts. As the body count rises, the women band together, using their wits and determination to confront the killer. Will they survive the night, or will the slasher claim them as his next victims?

Death-scort Service (2015): The setup is classic grindhouse: a group of working girls in Sin City finds themselves in the crosshairs of a serial killer who isn’t just looking for a thrill. He’s looking to turn the desert red. This isn’t a whodunit with a library and a pipe; it’s a who ’s-gonna-survive with a blade and a grudge.

Director Sean Donohue assembles a rogue’s gallery of indie horror stalwarts and adult film crossovers to populate his slaughterhouse. Krystal Pixie Adams (Michelle), Amethist Young (Gwen) and Ashley Lynn Caputo (Missy) lead the pack. Caputo, in particular, is a veteran of this kind of low-budget mayhem, having appeared in everything from Night of the Living Dead: Genesis to The Uh-oh Show!. And in a move straight out of the 1970s playbook, the film features a big star doing a cameo in Evan Stone. I mean, he’s a big star according to my hidden browser history.

That said, if you’re offended by, well, just about anything, this movie is ready to gross you out. It truly has some repellent death scenes, and if that’s what gets you going, good news! This is for you.

Death-Scort Service Part 2: The Naked Dead (2017): Sean Donahue returns with a sequel in which Michelle (Krystal “Pixie” Adams) is left behind to start over and forget her black past. There’s a new killer in Las Vegas out to see that that never happens.

Well, guess what? She’s dead in a few seconds, killed in a bubble bath, and we move on to new victims. Spoiler, huh? What if I told you someone’s ladybits have to deal with an electric carving knife?

This is an unapologetic exploitation flick. If the first movie was a peek behind the curtain, this one rips the curtain down. There is an absolute mountain of nudity on display here. Give it up for Bob Glazier. In the first film, he famously gave us a sack-tastic cameo, but here? He goes full-frontal. He’s bricked up, on display and apparently very proud of it.

This also goes totally Boogeyman II to show us most of the first film. Respect.

Taste Me: Death-Scort Service Part 3 (2018): The girls at the Tasty Chicks escort service are having a rough week. There’s a serial strangler stalking the streets, turning their colleagues into headlines and the police are—as usual—three steps behind. Defund the giallo police, defund the slasher police.

Enter our protagonist: a mysterious drifter who steps in to save a girl from an abusive john. He takes a bullet for his trouble, but in the world of these movies, no good deed goes unpunished or unrewarded with a stay in a brothel.

The drifter gets hauled back to the Tasty Chicks HQ and as the girls nurse him back to health, they realize they’ve got a potential pit bull on their hands. They offer him a job: stay in the house, keep your eyes peeled, and keep the Strangler from getting through the front door.

As our drifter recovers, he starts noticing that the Tasty Chicks are keeping some secrets of their own. It’s not just a killer outside; there’s something rotten and possibly cult-like happening inside the walls, like eating people. Whoops, spoiled again.

This one was produced by Sean Donohue, who did not direct or write. Instead, Chris Woods took over.

Extras on this SRS release include commentary tracks, photo galleries, trailers and behind-the-scenes for all three movies; FX footage; short films, a mini-documentary and more. You can get it from MVD.
