The Professor feeds a piece of leaf to his pet lobster, Shirley, which transforms it into a naked woman. He falls in love with her, although she frequently returns to her old lobster self. This dilemma sends the Professor on a quest for more Fongaluli leaves. In his travels, he visits an island inhabited by a giant nude woman, who says things like, "Hello sweet pants, sock it to me," Mae West-style. In exchange for some Fongaluli, he climbs inside of her and jumps around on her clitoris (off-screen).
Shirley reappears as a human woman (always naked), and masturbates against a palm tree. A giant lizard menaces from above (a cheap special effect with a visible human hand holding a real lizard in extreme close-up). Throughout, I kept thinking I was watching a film made by mentally defective teenagers.
Four hairy young men and woman cavort amid the palms, acting strange and yelling "Sex time!" before getting down and dirty. These and most of the other sex scenes are of the "scream louder" variety and too dark to see anything clearly, although FONGALULI is clearly a porno movie.
Eventually, the Professor finds a witch who claims that she, not the Fongaluli leaf, turned Shirley into a human. She wants The Professor to "do the Fongaluli trot" with her. The Professor, though, wants to be with Shirley, so the witch turns both of them into lobsters. There's some lobster dialog and even a lobster sex scene.
The music mixes accordion polkas, Strauss, and uninspired orchestral selections (the only thing missing is bootlegged Pink Floyd tunes).
You think this is ridiculous. Well, this movie regularly succeeds in topping even that. This is your typical drugs and sex movie from the '70's. And it is one big mess. The story is ridiculous. The filming pretentious, with Vaseline or something on the lens and of course there are the weird colors we always see in this type of movie. The sex could be hard core, or could be soft core, but the images are edited in such a way, that this remains a mystery. The (over) acting is worst of the worst. Cemano makes you nervous, the others are even worse.
The last orgy scene has some actual porn stars in it, such as Jamie Gillis. It is very possible the scene was taken from some adult movie and then reedited and colored in the same terrible way of other scenes in this extremely bad movie.
Avoid at all costs, for this is not even camp, just utter bullshit.
Now this was SO surreal that I was speechless and had to chuckle all the way. I've literally never seen anything like it before. Lol. From a Seventies-Films perspective maybe normal, but I cant tell I was not born yet..but, well, something for everyone in there: Cosplay, Family Robinson, Giant Lizards,and gSpot-Discovery becomes a new perspective with a blond island nympho giantess.
Not a lack of body parts and genitals, and all before the time of shaving...when things were still a bit more hairy so to say. The intercourse scenes are actually quite sensual and more geared towards female pleasure than most p-features nowadays - female viewers wont be dissapointed.
The Professor comes across as a very weird mix between one of the stooges, Woody Allen and Cheech (or Chong?) just good there are quite a few very well shaped, not-very-much-dressed 70ies Babes, and I really didnt expect to think different about Crusteans from now on - Shirley is the prettiest Lobster I have seen so far!
Happy to see that the End turned out as I hoped it would :)
