When their car goes over a cliff, it doesn't kill the two pop singers
and their manager riding on it as you would expect, but transports them to
a strange parallel world populated by giant dinosaur-like creatures and
cannibalistic witches, where they find abode in a creepy mansion. There,
the driver turns out to be a werewolf, one of the singers turns out to be
a vampire, and the other one gets devoured by one of the dinosaurs - but
is later ejected in form of an egg. Everything culminates in all-out war
eventually, a war neither vampires nor werewolves nor dinosaurs survive.
Only a cannibalistic witch comes out of it unscathed, and prepares to
feast on the spoils of the war, including a dinosaur egg ... when the egg hatches, giving birth to a
cross of the devoured singer and the (blying) dinosaur. A mad mad film:
A wild ride through genre mainstays, set in deliberately cheesy sets and
framed by cartoon-like stop motion effects, carried by a story that
doesn't even attempt to make too much sense - no doubt, this film is good
fun, but unfortunately it falls a few feet short of being truly great, as
its humour at times is just too deliberately goofy to let the film develop
to its full potential ... but even as it is, Diva in the Nstherworld
is at least good fun to watch.
