Candy Von Dewd

Summary: Now that's what I call broad daylight
Review: In the distant future human males are having, uh, endocrine issues. Armed with `potency pills' they travel through space in search of breedable females. They find them.
Or something like that. Who knows? CANDY VON DEWD is a very, very low budget film with no production values, what might charitably be called a confused plot, and actors who can't act. They can shimmy and shake their latex bodysuits and miniskirts, and stretch out on cheap rugs, but they can't act.
You can forgive a lot in a movie made on a severely limited budget. Professional actors and expensive props are beyond their reach. However, coherent storytelling and interesting characters are within reach, but there's none of that here. And as for the `girls of Latexploita,' save for about 1-1/2 seconds of wardrobe malfunction there's no nudity - and if a film ever needed a hearty infusion of nudity, it's this one.
Even people who love bad movies will probably want to pass on this one.

Summary: Hello Candy
Review: I found Candy Von Dewd a treat and a kick. Full of color and sharp editing; it shows definite awareness of scifi history, creating an atmosphere of strange sex and entrancing altered states, plus a not-that unbelievable plot about reproductive collapse. Truly a flick that melts over you. I loved the fashion and all the cheapo grimlies (ie flashing gadgets) and the cast is fun. This is the kind of movie that makes Exploitation a thing to ponder.

Review: Oh, how I long for Ed Wood! This is campy at its best, or-a worst, depending how you look at it. Really cheap sets, bad acting, costumes that could have only been designed on acid, a silly plot ripped-off directly from "Barberella."

A good exercise in bad cimena, much like "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes." You really have to see it to believe it! It goes beyond description. Just sit back and enjoy a little cheese on your popcorn.
