The Bare Wench Project

This is one of the coolest movies ever! A direct parody of the hit film BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, it's everything that sorry sack wished it could've been. Definitely a more satisfying movie-watching experience, WENCH was shot on videotape and features B-movie actresses Julie K. Smith, Nikki Fritz, Julie Strain, Antonia Dorian and Lorissa McComas. Not only does this movie look and feel just like the original (there was no script or budget), but several of the scenes are duplicated exactly, from beginning to end. It's well-acted and believable, eye-poppingly sexy, and is truly funny. I give props to everyone who was in this, they were awesome. You will be astonished at what director Jim Wynorski achieved just using flashlights and silicone. People that think these ladies can't act will find themselves sorely mistaken, as their improvisational abilities are just as good as those of the original cast. For anyone who saw BLAIR WITCH PROJECT and felt somewhat let down, BARE WENCH will undoubtedly lift your spirits.

I was quite disappointed in this movie. Although as far as B-movies go, it is not a bad movie in terms of the level of acting, plot, etc. But as far as B-movies go, no SEX?! I mean really, what's going on?! You got a handful of scenes where the 4 women are topless and a very brief lesbian scene, but I was very disappointed. I mean when you see a movie with 4 attractive women (I am a big fan of Julie K. Smith & Nikki Fritz) and then you got the one horny guy, which to me was a beautiful set-up for at least some 3some and lesbian action, you get nothing! As far as spoofs go, it was pretty "spoofish." Overall the acting was pretty good for a SKINEMAX movie. The emotion between the 5 characters seemed pretty real so that is the only positive.

Well, I have certainly seen worse soft-core parody films. The best part of this one was that they kept the nudity restricted to the girls, and we were not subjected to naked men. Sorry, ladies and gays, this movie is not for you. The plot, writing, and dialog were terrible, but this is after all a parody and I suppose that they were aiming for camp. They missed. But the girls were very pretty, aside from the badly overdone silicone jobs. Nikki Fritz and Lorissa McComas looked very nice. Oddly for me, who usually prefers brunettes, I liked the two blonde girls much more. Props to Antonia Dorian for her lovely natural-appearing boobies. And for whatever reason Julie K. Smith struck me as the prettiest of the bunch, with the least bad acting. (It's hard to critique an actress when this is the material she has to work with.) So, you can check it out as a breast fest, but it has no other redeeming qualities.

Like The Erotic Witch Project, this is a take on The Blair Witch Project, but with a cast of busty women who take their tops off at times. Here, there are four women who go into the woods with a guy named Lunk to make a documentary about the Bare Wench. I think Nikki Fritz's character was the director (i.e. the Heather of the group); she is the one who tells the story of the Bare Wench into the camera, anyway. Or possibly it was Chloe (Julie K. Smith), who is the one who does the tearful confession.

Like The Erotic Witch Project, this one doesn't seem to try to be very funny. It's not so much a spoof as just a loose framework to throw some nudity into along with some lesbian sex.

Nikkie Fritz returns in BWP 2-5. Julie K. Smith returns in BWP 3-5. Lorissa McComas and Antonia Doran return in BWP 4-5. Lenny Juliano returns in BWP 2 and 4. Andy Sidaris returns in BWP 2. Even if some of these are due to archive footage, this is a much better rate of return than the cast of the original Erotic Witch Project had in its sequels, for what that's worth.

Wynorski films are always excreble. This is just another case in point. Out of the five naked women shamelessly flaunted here, MAYBE one has real breasts. And that's a strong MAYBE. No humor, no gore, just boobies, boobies, boobies. And some tepid softcore lesbo action. But know what? For fifty cents less than this video rental, I could have rented legitimate porn. Do I feel cheated? With Wynorski, always. So I prepared myself for a letdown, as one must always do.
