Rating: Summary: Amazingly Good Review: This film is a true cinamatic truimph!!! I have never seen a film so satisfying, so riviting, so incredibly great.Tura Satana most excellent and would put Jane Fonda to shame in providing a rigerous workout. Great family film five stars.
Rating: Summary: TOO ENTERTAINING FOR WORDS Review: We happened upon this movie during some late night channel surfing. The combination of the cool but ultra-mean female desperados and the woman-hating lecherous farmer and his moronic sons sets the scene for the ultimate in trailer trash almost-porn. And, wonderfully, every word that comes out of their mouths is a timeworn over-ridden cliche. After the first 5 hilarious cliches caused us to howl with laughter, we were hooked. You will be too. I must own a copy of this...
Rating: Summary: Coming At Ya From Six Different Dangerous Directions Review: While there are some who argue that it is a pro-feminist flick with lots of social significance, truth is FASTER PUSSYCAT KILL KILL is a very deliberately made bit of ultra-drive-in trash, a movie that glories in all things low-brow, low-rent, and low-necklined. And it has a cast that makes up for their collective lack of talent with attitude to spare.
The story is as hooty as the cast. Tura Satana, she of the lethal cleavage, leads minions Haji and Lori Williams away from the grind of their jobs at the go-go joint and out into the desert. They race their cars. They wrestle in the water and then in the sand. They dance the watusi. They bump off this guy who shows up wearing plaid shorts. (You might read this as a mercy killing.) Then they set their sights on an old lech and his dum-dum sons, hoping to make away with their money. Faster Pussycat indeed!
The script is deliberately absurd, with an emphasis on memorable one liners that try to out-cliche all known cliches. But the real attraction here are the "pussycats." It isn't often that you see a 2D movie with 3D effects, but that's exactly what happens when Tura, Haji, Lori, and their six talents hit the screen. These are three big-busted, nip-waisted women with evil attitude, and they sneer, snarl, snap, and slither around the screen with all the aplomb of trailer park drag queens gone bad. It's more "tacky cool" than a 1965 plastic jewelry box explosion.
Now, how much you like this sort of thing really depends on how warped your sense of humor is. Cheap though it is, the thing is remarkably well done, and taken in the right way the combination of trailer-park chic, retro-hysteria, and ultra-attitude is a lot of fun... and when the pussycats hit the screen you may think you're about to get a black eye, and I don't mean from their fists! Breakout the popcorn and some protective glasses: Tura and the Pussycats are coming at ya!
