Candy Land follows Remy, a seemingly naive and devout young woman, who finds herself cast out from her religious cult. With no place to turn, she immerses herself into the underground world of truck stop sex workers a.k.a. “lot lizards,” courtesy of her hosts, Sadie, Riley, Liv and Levi. Under the watchful eye of their matriarch, Nora, and enigmatic local lawman, Sheriff Rex, Remy navigates between her strained belief system and the lot lizard code to find her true calling in life.

The first sexploitation flick of the year. The story is about prostitutes satisfying horny truckers who are joined by a strongly religious girl from a cult to perform a cleansing. So we have a clash of religion and prostitution, a corrupt sheriff, and the American backwoods in Montana. Visually, it's not as cheap as it might first appear, it's quite skillfully shot, the girls aren't afraid of nudity (showing boobs twice is insufficient given the topic though), and the genre delights are not over-represented. Most of the murders are either out of frame or done in the same style (stabbing in the stomach), don't expect any gore, just some blood, which won't get anyone off their seat these days. There is a gay rape and a creepy priest, which are probably the most interesting scenes. The rest unfortunately offers nothing new and doesn't even cross the boundaries in the genre. It's short and watchable, so it doesn't offend. 5.5/10.

After ninety minutes of this horror/thriller, my strongest reaction is heavy disappointment. I didn't expect that the only thing I would find somewhat entertaining would be the rather lengthy introduction to the hygienic shortcomings of a remote workplace in the tourism industry. If I were faint of heart, I would probably find the introduction shocking, but very few things surprise me these days. However, I must admit that the first killing scene did surprise me. It surprised me mainly by how boring it was. There were no surprising twists, the plot moved forward at the speed of a local train on a single track, and the killings lacked invention. I mentally checked off the diminishing characters and rooted for the villain with jagged teeth to finish everything as quickly as possible so that I could leave it behind. / Lesson learned: Some people follow the rule, "Ask first, shoot later," while others swear by the motto, "Shoot first, ask later." When dealing with religious fanatics, I am in favor of "Shoot first and don't bother asking anything at all." It's a slightly militant attitude, but I can't help it.
