Six Swedes at a Pump (1980)

** (out of 4)

This sequel to SIX SWEDISH GIRLS IN A BOARDING SCHOOL has our beloved beautiful and sexy ladies inheriting a gas station where they not only treat cars but also the men who drive them.

Look, if you're watching this film then you probably already know that there's really not too much of a story. Instead of any actual story we're just given a lot of beautiful ladies who are constantly undressing and going through a bunch of simulated sex scenes. Director-writer Erwin C. Dietrich will never be known as a great filmmaker but he at least knew what his audiance wanted and delivered it to them.

This film, which also goes under titles like HIGH TEST GIRLS, SWEDISH EROTIC SEXATIONS and SWEDISH SEX SERVICE has no real plot and instead we just get one sex scene after another. The director delivers the same type of shots that we saw in the first film, which includes the women running totally nude in slow motion towards the camera. The "bike" sex joke from the first film is even repeated here.

Obviously a film like this wasn't meant to be taken too serious. Even with its short running time it gets rather boring rather quickly and there's honestly not much here to hold you attention outside of the beautiful ladies including Brigitte Lahaie. If you're looking for some very mild entertainment then you might get some out of this picture. Of course, it's all about the nudity.

I had a really good time watching this movie. This is definitely a movie for entertainment only. Nothing serious here. This would make a nice movie to break the ice on a first date. If you're not used to euro movies, the explicitness is a bit of a shocker. With no cut away scenes,the actors/actresses dis-robe and mount each other. The camera shows every possible part of the love scenes just short of penetration. The girls run a full-service gas station. And full-service is what the patrons get. The girl have fun and watch erotic movies and do typical girl stuff. The mayor has his hands full with a overly generous wife, however don't feel sorry for him until you see the movie. The movie is worth buying, but it is more of a collector's item. This movie pushes the limits between softcore and hardcore, in a funny way.

"Sechs Schwedinnen von der Tankstelle" (1980), translated as "Six Swedish Girls at the Gas Station," is a German sex comedy that delivers a mix of risqué humor and playful antics but falls short in terms of plot and substance.

One of the film's strengths lies in its unabashed embrace of its genre. It doesn't take itself too seriously and is unapologetically designed to entertain with its cheeky humor and playful nudity. The actresses, including Brigitte Lahaie and Jane Iwanoff, bring a sense of fun and energy to their roles, clearly enjoying the playful nature of the film.

However, the film's plot is virtually nonexistent, serving merely as a loose framework to string together various comedic and erotic set pieces. This lack of narrative depth means that it quickly becomes repetitive, with similar jokes and situations occurring throughout. The humor, while occasionally amusing, often relies on clichéd and predictable gags that fail to leave a lasting impression.

Visually, the film is bright and colorful, with a lighthearted aesthetic that matches its tone. The cinematography and production values are adequate, but nothing particularly stands out in terms of technical achievement. The music is upbeat and matches the film's playful spirit, although it does little to enhance the overall experience.

In terms of performances, the cast delivers what is expected in a film of this nature. They are lively and enthusiastic, embracing the film's over-the-top scenarios with gusto. However, the acting is often exaggerated and lacks subtlety, which, while in line with the genre, may not appeal to all viewers.

In summary, "Sechs Schwedinnen von der Tankstelle" is a film that delivers exactly what it promises: lighthearted, risqué entertainment without much depth or complexity. It's a product of its time and genre, providing some laughs and titillation but ultimately lacking in substance. It's a passable choice for those seeking a carefree and cheeky comedy, but don't expect anything more than surface-level fun.

Flimsy plot about six beautiful "Swedish" women who run a "full service" gas station, and the mayor who wants to shut them down. The girls drain their customer's wallets, as the unattended gas overflows while they're off, uh, peoccupied. This plot is strictly designed to get all the ladies involved naked. Not just the six girls working the station, but the mayor's wife is sleeping with his entire cabinet, causing delays in four straight meetings.

This movie is one step removed from actual porn; the sex is simulated (masturbation is not). There are exactly zero topless scenes. When a girl gets naked, she gets naked!! Bonus points for this detail. Several running themes/music cues/touches are carried over from Edwin C. Dietrich's predecessor, Swedish Boarding School Girls. New to this one, I really enjoyed their TV's supernatural powers. Put to good use. If you want to shut off your brain, and watch seemingly endless beautiful naked ladies parade around for 85 minutes, then this is the movie for you. No pretensions, Swedish Gas Pump Girls never pretends to be something it's not.

The '6 Schwedinnen' (six Swedish girls) from the title clearly had no need for further sexual education (that was completed in their previous adventure '6 Schwedinnen im Pensionat') and now they have to work for a living. As petrol station attendants!

Their customers can expect to be treated very, er, lovingly, in fact the girls seem to make love to all their customers. Such loving care is sadly lacking regarding the safety of the whole enterprise. While the customers are attended to, inside the station, the completely unattended petrol pumps keep running and are highly likely to overspill - one of the rare situations in which premature ejaculation can save your live, because you might just get back in time! To top it all, several of the girls are heavy smokers. Miraculously nobody gets hurt.

That alone would not really fill 90 minutes, and so we are also subjected to the shenanigans in the local council. If a councillor comes late to a meeting he is probably bedding the mayor's wife - she's doing them all in turn.

And then, unconnected to anything else, there is this strange TV set that can do more than just broadcast a picture. By sitting firmly on top of it, our Kerstin (France Lomay) allows the man inside the TV to climb out and into her crotch. (If you must ask: of course, there ain't any special effects.)

The wackiness of it all keeps it just about watchable.
