Private Parts (1972)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Review:

After having a falling out with her promiscuous roommate. Cheryl decides to pack up her belongings and reluctantly makes a break for the big city.  But not, before she double crosses her old roomie, and takes all the money that she had stolen from her parents to fund their trip. Leaving her almost penniless.

Cheryl recalls her Aunt Martha owning a modest hotel in the city. So she decides to pay her a visit, unaware that the hotel happens to be inhabited by very peculiar house guests. From a sexually deviant priest with an impressive shrine dedicated to his gay lover, to a mysterious photographer, who's dark room resides in the hotel's basement. (Even Aunt Martha has some of her own unique hobbies.)

Cheryl eventually lets her curiosity for the bizarre hotel get the better of her, and when finally given the opportunity to examine the various rooms unhindered by the presence of her aunt. She snatches the master keys and begins to do a little exploring.

The quirky tenants are nothing compared to the secrets waiting to be unearthed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Conclusion :

The film builds ample tention, and the musical score only suceeds in making the viewers heart race.
This under appreciated film was directed by Paul Bartel of (Eating Raoul and Deathrace 2000 fame) the humor is dark and sleazy and the fetish tinged photographer's apartment are one of the many things worth mentioning about this movie.

It's a personal favorite!

Rubber's Lover (1996)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review:

A secret organization tests the effects of ether and their newly invented D.D.D device (Digital Direct Drive) on unwilling human participants. A dilemma occurs when the unauthorized testing yeilds little results, and quickly renders any test subject useless, when high doses of ether and torture cause the person to eventually explode.

The human subjects are wraped in plastic, cutting off their ability to take in oxygen, which inturn reduces brain function, allowing for the ideal state for testing the D.D.D device, which is mounted on the subject's head.

Shimika one of the main researchers for D.D.D is being secretly injected with a sedative to increase his body's tolernace for ether, which his corrupt business partner Motomiya injects into his colleage in vast amounts.

The corporation responsible for funding the scientists research, sends an employee (the newly engaged Kiko) to collect final data from Shimika before informing the men that their funding is being terminated, and they are also being evicted from their testing facility.

With little time left for research, Motomiya decides to kick things into high gear.

Now Shimika is about to find out first hand, the painful side effects of his experiments.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Conclusion :

There is a lot of visual interest; Hypnotic imagery, cold robotic perversions, black blood and elaborate mechanical torture devices.
All this unfolds with a droney, haze of industrial music playing in the backround.

Talk about "Mind-blowing" entertainment!

Bare Behind Bars (1980)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review:

This female dominated establishment, harbors lustful inmates and personnel. A select few are inducted into the sex trade, where they can leave the confines of their prison cells. While others are left to endure intensive cavity searches and molestation from the sex starved staff. The girl's are also taught to renounce their given names, instead they can only answer to their uniform number. (Speaking, of uniforms, or lack thereof, the girl's are pantyless, clad only in a buttoned up dress shirts, with their numbers emblazoned on the back.)

Upon incarceration, each girl is put through intrusive cavity searches, by the untrained, yet well intentioned Nurse Barbara. (who's cravings for ether, make her a little bit kooky.) During her free time, Barbara likes to pleasure certain inmates with her plethora of toys.

Many have attempted to escape, the girl's efforts usually end in death and their battered bodies are disposed of in the overcrowded prison cemetery. Although things begin to change when inmate # 578 arrives. #578 and her fellow cell mates begin to strategically target certain staff members. While one girl conspires with Nurse Barbara, #578 distracts the warden with exhaustive, sexual aerobics.

Sylvia the Warden becomes quite enamored with her insatiable partner, and promises to give the girl anything she desires. #578 decides to request a holiday mass, allowing the girls the perfect opportunity to escape.

Prepare yourselves for girl fights, ruler lashings and lesbian trysts in varying degrees of explicitness!

Fun.Fun.Fun

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Conclusion :

This memorable trash venture, has everything a fan of Women In Prison films could ever want.

There are both straight and lesbian hardcore sex scenes for the viewer to enjoy. (Even though some of the male participants are less then visually pleasing.) And comedic relief compliments of the wacked out Nurse Barbara (a prolific beauty queen in the 60s, with a slight resemblance to Marilyn Monroe) and if you wait long enough, you will be rewarded with some pretty impressive gore.

High reccomended

(also note: This Blue Underground title is now Out Of Print, so if you see it for a good price, do not hesitate to snatch it up!)
