What do you do if the woman you've become engaged to over the internet shows up at the airport with a non-identical twin sister attached to her at the mid-section? Well, if you're a nice guy like Stanley (Tom Long), you welcome her with open arms, tolerate her frenetic mood and try to have sex around her. And when said sister (Keefer Barlow) turns out to be a serial killer who especially likes offing men who are disrespectful about her and her conjoined twin (Michelle Ellen Jones), you stiffen that upper lip and help cover up the evidence.Of course, something's got to give, and before long you're conspiring with your fiancee and your creepy co-worker to separate the ladies in their sleep, at the risk of mortal peril.
"Conjoined" is a dumb, low-budget flick that plays its absurd material for laughs and, with its deliberately awkward and silly style, actually manages to get a few despite its general amateurishness. As with 2020's "The Devil's Familiar", its cast of victims turn to Spirit Halloween props once they're offed and dismembered by a scenery-chewing Keefer Barlow, and like many a movie about a female serial killer it makes sure we know that those guys kinda deserve it. This isn't a "Yas Queen" classic, however, and despite its passing similarities to the work of Frank Henenlotter and Jeremy Saulnier it simply doesn't have the talent behind it to fully work. I guess there are worse ways to spunk away 80 minutes, however.
