House on Bare Mountain

OK, I admit! This movie was pretty fun to watch at times and it certainly wasn't as bad as I had feared.

At first this seemed to be just another one of those sleazy '60's productions, that involved little money and little clothes for the female characters in it. And while the movie was still being a typical '60's sleazy one, it was a surprising lot of fun as well.

It's a movie that is really aware of itself and what it is trying to be and do. It has no illusions about it that it's is a great movie and the cast luckily also seemed to realize this, so they simply decided to have some fun with it. Everybody was working with a smile on their face it seemed and it must have been really fun to work on this movie, even for the girls, who of course get exploited heavily in this movie.

It's comedy really saves this movie and makes it a more or less watchable. Since otherwise, this movie has very little to offer. I literally had no idea what the story was all supposed to be about but it really didn't mattered at all for this movie.

But even while this is only a 1 hour short movie, it still manages to feel a tat bit overlong and the movie even starts to drag toward its end, when all the gloves are off and the movie decides to go completely crazy. It starts to repeat itself at that point and the movie even becomes too silly for its own good.

However, as far as these type of cheap and simplistic genre movies go, this is definitely one of the more fun ones I have ever seen!

If you're new to cheeseball sexploitation films, this is a great jumping off point. Cheesy, ridiculous, and overall just a fun 60 minutes. I'm glad this was restored.

This skin flick is really letting out the beast in all of us. Women are either topless or nude. The shower scene is perfectly normal. No wet hair!

The creatures of the night are really inconspicuous. They show no signs of boredom. The denmother in the film is really quite a character. Not being pervy, but very protective the best "she" can.

This movie was made in the 60's. It could pass for a 'R' or 'X' rating. But it doesn't have bad language or any male nudity. The movie was kept clean but there's no innuendo. It just let out the beast in everyone. You will have trouble taking your eyes off it!

4 out of 5 stars.

This is one of the oddest movies I've ever seen. Bob Cress is perfect in the role of the rotten old bat, who keeps a werewolf (yes, a werewolf) enslaved in her basement still. The (naked) girls of Granny Good's prep school sure do know how to throw a party! The punchline at the very end of the movie is absolutely hilarious.

Early nudie sexploitation flick about G.G.S.F.G.G. (Good Grandma School For Good Girls), which comes under attack from Frankenstein's monster, Dracula and The Wolf Man. This is your typical sexploitation film as it contains non-stop nudity and plenty of dancing. As usual, there's very little going on in this film and everything that does happen is just happening so you can see young women with their shirts off. The monsters contain as bad as a make up job that you can have considering they just wear store bought masks, although the Wolf Man actually has its own style. Needless to say all the performances are bad, direction laughable but what did you expect?
