Six models are called together for a photoshoot at the warehouse studio of Adrian (Oliver Malam), a frustrated "incel" who bristles at the constant rejection and ridicule they hurl at him during all of their professional interactions.
It seems Adrian has discovered a weird new diet supplement called Pump-N-Go that turns people into vicious killers, and his plan is to keep the six women in cages, inject them with the drug, and pair them off in gladiatorial death matches which will give him (a) revenge, and (b) perverse sexual thrills.
Interestingly, we're initially inclined to sympathize with Adrian because some of these models really are obnoxious, hateful bitches who do lay on the ridicule pretty thick. The only one we really get to know is Mira (Jessica Messenger), who just dresses like a slut because she needs the money and really isn't a "mean girl" type.
But as the story progresses, Adrian becomes more of a hateful psycho and we start siding with the girls as they're forced to battle each other to the death for his sick gratification.
These scenes are pretty much meat-and-potatoes stuff--no dazzling choreography or shocking gore--but they do the job of holding our interest until the models start planning their escape.
That's where the suspense factor kicks in and the movie starts being more than just a collection of fetish montages. (Although the girls do wear dominatrix outfits throughout almost the whole thing.)
It's not Hitchcock or anything, but director and co-writer Simon Edwards is doing capable work here and giving us a fair amount of tension. While the inevitable conclusion to all this doesn't exactly give THE WILD BUNCH a run for its money, I found it satisfying enough.
By the time it was all over, I had actually started to like some of these unlikable chicks (the ones who were still alive, anyway). The story actually has two endings--the official one, and the "gotcha!" during the closing credits.
6 HOT CHICKS IN A WAREHOUSE sets out to give us some voyeurism (there's an extended photoshoot montage that shows off the girls' bodies, and a bit of nudity here and there), some humor, some violence, and some revenge. I don't expect it to get nominated for any Oscars, but to be honest, I'd rather watch this than the Oscars.
