Exploitation maven Russ Meyer created a cult classic with this turbo-charged action film. Three curvaceous go-go dancers in a cool sports car go on a desert crime spree, led by Varla (the amazing Tura Satana), a busty, nasty woman dressed entirely in black. Varla's lesbian moll, Rosie (Haji) -- who has an extremely overwrought accent -- and reluctant bimbo Billie (Lori Williams) are along for the ride. When they meet a naïve young couple, Tommy and Linda (Ray Barlow and Sue Bernard), Varla challenges the man to a race then kills him by breaking his back. They take Linda hostage and drive to a house owned by a crippled old lecher (Stuart Lancaster) and his muscular but retarded son, Vegetable (Dennis Busch). Varla discovers that the old man has money hidden on the property, so the girls try to find it. Meanwhile, Vegetable's perverted father tries to trick him into assaulting one of the girls as he watches, but his other son (Paul Trinka) finally shows up to save the day. A great deal of bloodshed, campy catfighting, and funny dialogue fills the bulk of this fast-paced comic book of a movie. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide

Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!: Before I start this review, let me make a confession. Before ajji lectured me awhile back, I'd never heard of Russ Meyer. But man, oh man, I'm glad I saw this one! This little sleazeball of a film is probably (along with Riki-Oh) the cultiest of cult films. Let's go down the checklist: ridiculous dialogue (check). violence (check). ridiculous characters played by ridiculous actors (check). old crippled man (check). Seriously, show this flick to anyone, and chances are that they'll enjoy it (unless they'd rather watch some wussy actor try to ape Dolph Lundren and pretend to shoot impressive guns). The plot is all pretty basic stuff. Go-go dancers go out in their hot rods for a weekend in the desert. Naturally, one of them ends up killing some pantywaist by breaking his spinal column. Then they go to hang out with a lecherous old cripple and his two sons (one of them being a ridiculous muscle man). Several makeout scenes and foreboding stuff later, and you're still entertained by the ridiculousness of it all. I hope all of Mr. Meyer's work is like this. *** out've *****

| Big busted women in muscle cars driving around the countryside kicking ass. What's not to like! Good campy popcorn fun for the entire dysfunctional family. |
