    If Thelma and Louise were dumb

    Then you'd get this movie about 2 beautiful girls and Elizabeth Kaitan who go to Mexico to hide from the cops while being chased by the nerd from Grease. There the valley girls hook up with some surfer dudes. As if! I'm sure! Gag me with a spoon. Not enough nudity cause it was directed by a broad.

    Assault Of The Killer Movie

    Brought to you by the same people who made 'Slave Girls From Beyond Infinity' and 'Sorority Babes In The Slime Ball Bowl-a-Rama'(of which I loved) this one wasn't up to par.

    Elizabeth Kaitan (or Cayton, from the movie Slave Girls) is a co star in this flick that is kind of a Thelma and Louis b-movie. Two exotic dancers (bimbos) get framed for a murder by being bimbos (blatantly stupid). They hop in a car and partake in some adventures.

    They meet up with surfer guys, gangsters, and cops. Pretty well getting chased around the highways until they finally get to Mexico.

    The girls flaunt their sexy bodies and act totally like bimbos...I suppose the main idea for the movie. Absolutely nothing else happens in this movie.

    Not Exactly on the Cutting Edge

    After getting in an argument with their boss named "Shifty Joe" (David Marsh), two go-go dancers by the names of "Peaches" (Christina Whitaker) and "Lulu" (Elizabeth Kaitan) hear a gunshot and go to Shifty Joe's office to find out what's going on. When they get there the murderer named "Vinnie" (Mike Muscat) hands Lulu the gun and flees the scene. A moment later several people arrive in Shifty Joe's office and see his dead body and Lulu holding the gun. Unable to convince anyone that they are innocent they quickly make a break for it and head to Mexico in their car. Along the way they stop at a diner and when they are recognized they grab a waitress named "Darleen" (Tammara Souza) as a hostage and once again make a break for it. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie I will just say that for a low-budget "bimbo movie" this one wasn't too bad as the plot was mildly entertaining, the wardrobes were pretty nice and Elizabeth Kaitan was certainly attractive. On the flip side, the comedy wasn't exactly on the cutting edge and it could have used a bit more sex appeal than what was shown. Again, it wasn't a bad movie but even so it wasn't that great either. Accordingly, I rate it as just slightly below average.

    Good stupid fun

    Expecting some lamebrain sitcom reject, I found "Assault of the Killer Bimbos" to be good stupid fun. Christina Whitaker made the biggest impression on me; I found her to be funny, smart, and rather attractive. To coin a cliche, don't expect Shakespeare, and you won't go away disappointed. An excellent "girls just wanna have fun" movie; the overall acting and story are better than what the box at the video store led me to believe.

    Somewhat disappointing

    With the title "Assault Of The Killer Bimbos", and the premise of two airheaded women on the run from the law, you may think that you'll get a lot of sleazy fun with this movie. Alas, the actual results are somewhat of a letdown.

    The women in the movie are written to be a likable bunch, and the actresses playing them are a talented bunch, but the screenplay is pretty one-note with them. After a while, these characters seem to just be doing the same thing over and over again. That may be because the screenplay stops advancing the plot after the first twenty minutes or so, and does not start advancing the plot until the last ten minutes.

    Eddie Deezen does liven things up with his appearance (no movie can be completely bad if it has Eddie Deezen), but he's only in the movie for a few minutes.

    Also, the screenplay is seriously lacking in sleaze. There's hardly any nudity, no sex, and a minimum amount of PG-style violence.

    Did this movie inspire "Thelma & Louise"? Probably not, but you never know.

    • Trivia
      Elizabeth Kaitan told Femme Fatales magazine that when Thelma and Louise (1991) was released, the plot was so close to this one that producers of Bimbos (Including David DeCoteau and Charles Band) considered suing MGM (which now owns the Empire Pictures catalog) for plagiarism but changed their minds when they realized how much it would cost in legal fees. Producer David DeCoteau has stated that there is an obvious connection between the films, saying, "The creator (of Thelma and Louise) must have seen Bimbos and was inspired in some way, whether consciously or not. There are just too many similarities. I mean, right down to the car they drive and the characters names and certain plot points. It's amazing."

      Obviously, a Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputy would have no jurisdiction in Mexico.

      Peaches: The go-go happens to be a highly respected classical art form. It is interpretive dance in rock 'n' roll format...

      Lulu: In bikinis.
