One of the worst movies I've ever seen
good back-story, and good acting
An action-packed slog
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
View MoreKiss Me Quick is a masterpiece of its genre (nudie cutie), accepting of course that the genre has fairly low standards. The film has humor, which separates it from some of its competitors. It also has attractive girls, some especially so in the mid-sixties sort of way. Somehow the women in those days managed to look attractive and voluptuous without looking slutty. Harry Novak, the Producer, said that most of the women were recruited from the Classic Cat, which was a strip club in Los Angeles. In those days strippers didn't have tattoos or body piercings or look like they could kick your butt.This film was made during the ear of monster popularity. The Addams Family and the Munsters were big hits on television, so of course we get monsters as the male characters in the film. Short on plot, this film is basically wall-to-wall women dancing without wearing too many clothes. But more importantly, it wasn't intended to be anything more than that; its reach did not exceed its grasp.The final scene, with the woman coming down a conveyor belt and having labels slapped on them was a stroke of pure artistic genius.
View MoreI caught this movie on Drive-In Classics here in Canada this weekend. Interesting. I'd seen a few of the "nudist" films from about the same era...but this one was different: funny (in a "ohmigod, how corny!" way)and mildly erotic (by today's standards). The young ladies in the film seem to be enjoying themselves in a non-politically correct manner. The acting by the male characters is, well, rudimentary. The actresses all have names that suggest they spent most of their working hours disrobing. I had read about the film in a science fiction film encyclopedia I once owned, then forgot about it. So I was surprised to find it on cable TV. Dr. Breedlove was obviously a Strangelove clone but he sounds more like a very poor rendition of Bela Lugosi. The actor playing Sterilox DOES look and sound like Stan Laurel.I liked it mainly because of the young, naked women, all of whom are grandmothers by now!
View MoreA guy from another planet is looking for women so that they can repopulate so he naturally pops up (literally) in Dr. Breedlove's laboratory.While this has absolutely nothing to do with Stanley Kubrick's brilliant film DR. STRANGELOVE (it only borrows the name so that it can be spoofed), this is still a fun film to watch.The woman are all uniformly very good looking and attractive, probably many of whom were top men's magazine models about the time this movie was made. The men, most of whom were under mountains of makeup (which was probably just as well) played their parts as campy as they could.The story and plot of this film is creaky because already the basic idea had become a cliché because of countless science fiction films of the 50s and the 60's.
View MoreOkay, so fans of the late Stanley Kubrick probably won't rush out to rent this film,(even so locating the film may prove difficult) it will however, more than likely amuse them.The DR. STRANGELOVE references may be few, but its just enough to make the film watchable. Fans of nudie-cutie films of the sixties should hang their heads in shame if they haven't seen it, while church going suburbanites should pray they never hear of it!Interesting fact: The film's director of photography, Laslo Kovacs, would go on to shoot CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, GHOSTBUSTERS, and EASY RIDER!KISS ME QUICK! is a girrating fun time, with plenty of girls-a-poppin!
