Le vampire érotique

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.

The hilarious Bob ("Love Camp 7", "Erotic Adventures Of Zorro" etc.) Cresse in drag as Granny Good is the saving grace of this VERY infantile tale of a girl school threaten by undercover cops and monsters. The girls are, of course, in the nude for like 90% of the movie and that's okay by me cuz there's some major poontang. The tall wolfman's make up is done by Harry Thomas who worked on Ed Wood's "Plan 9 From Outer Space"! If your girlfriend is a hardcore feminist, watch it with your buddies over a case of brew - you'll burst with laughter!

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.

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!

House on Bare Mountain (1962)

* (out of 4)

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?
