Women of the Night

I have always liked this movie. I liked the idea of a beautiful women operating a pirate radio crew from the back of a semi-truck that is traveling from dusk til down around Los Angeles.

Yes, there is much nudity, but its tasteful but most of the eroticism actually comes from the sultry voices of Shawnee Free Jones and Sally Kellerman.

The 3 stories of the lawyer, the comedienne and the heiress at first seem distinct and later intermingle. Several of the characters introduced earlier turn out not to be whom you expect them to be.

This is an excellent movie with great entertainment value. When I saw it recently on Television I was riveted by its haunting melody and compelling content. The actresses were believable and great in the execution of their craft. MS Shawnee William Free Jones especially has a beautiful delivery which kept me in my chair. I recommend this movie to anyone.

Boring. Even for fans of Zalman King's earlier works, this film might be hard to swallow. You have the usual amount of gratuitous sex and nudity, but it's cobbled together behind a strange story of a young girl's druglord family, who grows up to be a blind, pirate radio hostess, telling stories about sex and intrigue. However, logic holes abound.

For one thing, her story-telling follows a beatnik rhythm that, without the video portion, would not make much sense so the only people listening would be insomniacs or those infatuated with her voice.

Also, scenes flash and scream, reminiscent of X-Files or Millennium, adding a very unsettling quality to the imagery. This is a total turn-off because you think less about whether a couple would get together, but whether they would be hideously murdered somehow.

The stories don't really follow each other and just end and begin suddenly, with each lasting maybe 12 minutes or so.

Eric Clapton is known as "slow hands", and Zalman King could be called that as well, except for one important point: Eric Clapton writes good songs.

When I saw the name Zalman King, I thought, "Okay, time for some soft core disguised as art" but this story was surprisingly good. While there is nudity and some sex sprinkled in, it is not gratuitous and is simply an aid to the telling of the stories.

This sexy erotic tale is very stylish and interesting. The music (especially Donna DeLory) and various narrators along with the talented cast draw you into the three stories of love, self-loathing and murder. Everyone is excellent in this picture. More then just it's look but the emotions felt within the stories are so strong and vivid. This one really surprised me.

I'm going to tell my friends at work to give this one a try.

This would have to be one of the worst movies that i have ever seen. Hard to follow and just plain pointless it is definitely not worth watching. Some of the songs are nice but that is about the best i can say for this tragic excuse for a film.
