The Revenge of the Teenage Vixens from Outer Space

Here's a good example of a cult attempt actually living up to the fun alluded to in the title! It's a zero budget wonder that somehow manages to muster up more actual entertainment value than most movies with fifty times the money, acting talent and special effects. It's more fun than say, INDEPENDENCE DAY or ALIEN RESURRECTION.

Four horny alien babes (are these the best looking women they could find?!) come to Earth in search of willing young earth men. When the local population fails to live up to their high expectations, and the local girls become jealous, the spurned extraterrestrials get revenge by using their laser guns to turn their victims into giant vegetables!

TEENAGE VIXENS is so much fun for B-movie fans (with spirited acting, funny dialogue and silly special effects) that it's easy to overlook the fact that it borrows much of it's plot from INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS. It used to be on regular rotation on USA Up All Night for many years, but the video is nearly impossible to find now.

Score: 6 out of 10

This was a truly bad movie. Bad plot, bad acting, bad SFX, bad music, bad everything.

Teenaged vixens?

It is not that farfetched!

The starting credits gives name without faces so it is hard to match the second-rate actors with the names.

Starts hokey - gets weirder. Will Karla (Lisa Schwedop) keep the door unlocked?

According to the copilot AI Michelle Lichter is: The Writer The actress as Saudi The Producer The editor The makeup department

There is an actual problem with the film and it is not the cheesy dialog or the inept special effects. It is the fact that they are too contrived for the film. They try too hard to be campy and it shows. They try to make "Old School" films; unfortunately, they have not a clue as to how to do this. What we need are fresher tomatoes.

So, what's in your garden?

My review was written in September 1986 after watching the movie on Continental video cassette.

This cleverly titled feature is a contemporary salute to the 1950s teen sci-fi films. More childish than titillating, pic is an oky video time-killer, mad in the Seattle area last year Laidback hero Paul (Howard Scott) finds out from his dad that mom was an alien from Outer Space who visited here 16 years ago. A foursome of new vixens, plus mom (played by tall Aunt Lilly) have come to Earth, attracted by a teen magazine that somehow arrived on their planet.

Although the lusty females are looking for sex with Earthlings, film is extremely tame in its presentation of the havoc they wreak among the local teen population.

Film's special effects are chintzy and downright silly when some of the kids are turned into large size human vegetables.

Guilty Pleasure? Naaaaa!!! I feel no shame whatsoever in saying that I loved this movie...and what's not to L-O-V-E?! First of all, the acting is somewhat above par for a "homemade brew" of this sort. The Vixens, although rapacious in their sexual appetites, demonstrated in the end that they were not at all slaves to their libidos, but rather masters of their pathetically inadequate lovers ( there has never been a funnier symbolic "premature ejaculation scene" in the history of the movies!). There has also never been a funnier farce made of phallic imagery; "You mean to say that all that's left of my son is a pickle!" Of course this requires an explanation! Quite simply the Vixens mate with vegetables on their home planet... 'nuf said?!

To top everything off you have the" poor man's" Roddy McDowell playing Mr.Morrelli, and just when things couldn't get any better there is a killer soundtrack (which I will never own) and an homage to the Wizard of Oz! Who is responsible for this little gem? (and more importantly) What has become of them? What
