In a pawn shop, stand-up comedian Lee (James Fisher) stumbles upon the perfect ring to propose to his girlfriend Nicole (Rebecca Meadows). His idea of a perfect proposal is to query her first on what her favorite movie death scene was (Roy Batty's from BLADE RUNNER) and her favorite movie marriage proposal scene (his is from the Don Johnson cult classic A BOY AND HIS DOG). In spite of this, she accepts and they get the blessing of Nicole's father (James Kavaz) who is up to his neck in money problems with the mob. Right away, Lee's best friend Ricky (Oli Wilkinson) starts making arrangements for a stag party; preferably at an establishment with a vomitorium ("A room in which people may vomit to make room for more consumption"). What Lee doesn't know is that the engagement ring he has given to Nicole once belonged to Josephine Stewart, a betrayed woman who murdered several members of the wedding, her fiance's mistress, bit off her ring finger before killing her fiance. The ring has continued to cause misfortune through the ages but Nicole's not about to let anything ruin the wedding (not even a mobster's corpse in her father's office). She and her bridesmaid Carly (Natalie Milner) seek out help from Natalie's incest-minded, occult scholar cousin Sinclair (Cy Henty) who traps the ghost in a mirror and advises her not get any blood on the ring but the wedding promises to be quite the bloodbath as Lee, Nicole, Carly, and Ricky face off against mobsters and the supernatural. Low budget horror comedies tend to be a bit excessive and unfocused (see most Troma Films pick-ups) but HELLBRIDE seems to have started off with a good script (occasionally let down by the budget but most fans of low budget horror will find these touches more endearing than distracting) that provides routine horror sequences but smartly veers towards the comic aspect. Scenes featuring actor Cy Henty (who also provided the drawings for the opening sequence) were part of the reshoot footage when the rough cut clocked in at 57 minutes and the more juvenile humor of these scenes seems a bit forced. Overall, it is one of the better low budget horror comedies (especially because the humor is not there to compensate for the lack of resources).
