Kiss Me Quick!

Kiss Me Quick is a masterpiece of its genre (nudie cutie), accepting of course that the genre has fairly low standards. The film has humor, which separates it from some of its competitors. It also has attractive girls, some especially so in the mid-sixties sort of way. Somehow the women in those days managed to look attractive and voluptuous without looking slutty. Harry Novak, the Producer, said that most of the women were recruited from the Classic Cat, which was a strip club in Los Angeles. In those days strippers didn't have tattoos or body piercings or look like they could kick your butt.

This film was made during the ear of monster popularity. The Addams Family and the Munsters were big hits on television, so of course we get monsters as the male characters in the film. Short on plot, this film is basically wall-to-wall women dancing without wearing too many clothes. But more importantly, it wasn't intended to be anything more than that; its reach did not exceed its grasp.

The final scene, with the woman coming down a conveyor belt and having labels slapped on them was a stroke of pure artistic genius.

With a line up like that how can a movie be bad? Sterilox is sent to earth from the Buttless Galaxy to find slave girls and the perfect girl for bleeding stock from the strange lab of Dr. Bleedlove with lots and lots of topless girls. So there is a loose plot to hold together the overall mission of the film which is to show topless girls dancing around. I'm sure the budget of this film top at least $500-$600. A few left overs from the Sci_Fi prop department at use to give it a added flare. Over all is fun and makes a great open minded date film, long as you're not dating a prude. If I ever become a mad doctor in a lab, I'm getting a go-go dance to mix my beakers for me. Another great find from Something Strange Video worth having a look or adding to any 60's sexplotation collection.

Okay, so fans of the late Stanley Kubrick probably won't rush out to rent this film,(even so locating the film may prove difficult) it will however, more than likely amuse them.

The DR. STRANGELOVE references may be few, but its just enough to make the film watchable. Fans of nudie-cutie films of the sixties should hang their heads in shame if they haven't seen it, while church going suburbanites should pray they never hear of it!

Interesting fact: The film's director of photography, Laslo Kovacs, would go on to shoot CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, GHOSTBUSTERS, and EASY RIDER!

KISS ME QUICK! is a girrating fun time, with plenty of girls-a-poppin!

Sterilox is sent from the all-male Buttless galaxy to Earth in order to pick up these things we have called women. He zaps into the castle of Dr. Breedlove, who is working on some kind of elixir that makes women dance topless and sometimes turns them into monsters. This viewing was another Video Roulette courtesy of Mr. John Charles. I like not being in control of my own fate. If you were hoping for a more complex plot from this 66 minute nudie flick, I don't know what to say. This is totally what you see is what you get and what you see is a lot of nude flesh. The camera lingers on the attractive 1960s women over and over as our two main characters supply occasionally witty puns. You also get some cheap-o famous monsters including Frankenstein, The Mummy and Dracula. It's THE MONSTER SQUAD for the nudie set! The acting is over-the-top but I actually enjoyed Max Gardens as the mad doctor with his Trans-uh-vain- eh-ahhhh accent. His look is also surprisingly modern, making it hard to believe this was made 47 years ago. He was also the producer as one Seymour Tuchus. In a weird, all-things-are-connected coincidence, Sterilox actor Frank A. Coe wrote the lyrics for the horrible UP YOUR LADDER theme song that was stuck in my head just a few days ago.

Sterilox, a Stan Laurel clone, is sent by his alien overlord to Earth to find females, not for breeding, but to serve! Where else would an alien go to find the the perfect specimen, but to the laboratory of Dr. Breedlove, whose experiments on women are quite revolutionary. A sexist, pre-women's lib comedy that has some good one-liners and hot naked women, as well as excellent color photography and cool sets. All of the classic monsters are there too! Must be seen to be believed.
