First there is Minnie Driver but she lasts only through the first couple of scenes as she is starring in a stage play that is a parody of "Phantom", complete with a bad guy wearing a mask. Her twins, a boy and a girl, are about 10 at that time.
Fast forward to 10 years later, the twins are working at a summer musical theater camp as the cooks. But when they decide to do a revival of their mother's fatal musical the daughter just has to try out for the lead, she has to honor her late mother.
It was good to see Meatloaf Aday as the camp director, he even has a couple of musical numbers. Man he was talented. But the biggest problem I had, even though this is a spoof movie, the young actress is not a particularly good singer. Pleasant, maybe, but nowhere near what would be required to do a Broadway role, which was the character's stated goal.
I enjoyed the movie, it has lots of gore and blood, in the spirit of a parody, but as something completely different I enjoyed it.
