Gore Gore Girls, The

Surprisingly, I was kind of disappointed with this one. Before the credits even begin, it starts off well with a gore sequence. However, I became uninterested in it between the violence. Sure enough, it definitely delivers some great gore. One of the best scenes occurs about 40 minutes into the film when a woman wearing a see-thru bra has her butt mashed to a bloody mess with a meat tenderizer, which is then followed by her having her eyeballs plucked out and squished. Another scene worth mentioning is a woman having her face burned to a mess with an iron. So, it sure delivers some extreme gore and violence, but it just has only a bit of topless and rear nudity. In between the gore, I personally thought it was boring. There's dancing at a club and boring filler stuff with uninteresting characters. Instead of some of this boring filler, I was expecting a higher body count because I only bought this for gore only. The film also delivers no effective atmosphere or locations where they filmed it. The comedic ending, when the guy talks to the viewer and says "you've seen enough" and pulls a black screen down on the camera, isn't something that I like because I don't want stupid humor like that in my horror.That "Peak at the Love Goddess of Gore" extra is a quick and cool gore scene with a guy being disemboweled and then decapitated on an alter. There's also a Gordan Lewis exploitation art galley and a film commentary from Lewis. The DVD quality is really good.

This is my first and, so far, only Herschell Gordon Lewis movie I've ever seen, much less put in my DVD collection. I must say that, as a connoisseur of fine cheeses, this one is quite delectable.Being the last film made by Mr. Lewis in 1972, it's mainly tongue-in-cheek, while you can keep one in your head. But don't worry; if you're not an early-seventies stripper working in Chicago, you're safe. With names such as Suzie Creampuff, Candy Cane, and Lola Prize, these groovy go-go gals weren't being very modest, which kind of made them large targets for this particular killer.Right off the bat, I must strongly agree as to how much Frank Kress, who played the hero, Abraham Gentry, private investigator par excellence (as he so modestly announces every five minutes), resembles Allan Arbus, who appeared several times in M*A*S*H as Dr. Sidney Freeman, psychiatrist. His character is kind of a throwback to the thirties. I was oh-so-slightly projecting Nick Charles' picky, arrogant, yet nattily-attired and gentlemanly nephew onto Mr. Gentry.Said Mr. Gentry is wooed into helping Nancy Weston, girl-cub-reporter, to solve the case of the Chicago Stripper Killer And Creative Mutilator. There's a "spirited" mob scene in one of the clubs, meaning that they all looked to be three sheets to the wind at the time. Strippers are dispatched, french fries, cucumbers and chocolate milk are served, and the sleazy food chain is established. A few hangover-free Zombies later, Miss Fancy Nancy finds herself entered into a stripping contest hosted by the owner of the local strip joints, Marzdone Mobilie, played by Henny Youngman (!). I must admit, Henny did a good job in this. Later he chose to absolve himself of ever appearing in this film. Such a pity.One of my favorite parts of this DVD is Something Weird's promo of some of their other juicy celluloid tidbits. It had me cracking a wide smile the first time I saw it. It also reminded me of John Waters' Serial Mom, the scene where one of its characters is watching a Chesty Morgan movie. Plus, there's a clip from a movie featuring some wild women and a most hapless blond guy who's about to spill his guts to them.If you never thought you'd meet a stripper talented enough to work to Strauss' Radetzky March or My Old Kentucky Home, this movie will set you straight, pickle!Okay, having said all that, I have one question...in the very beginning of the movie, where the Hell did Mr. Gentry put his pretty black cat? Was that a cat door? I hope it was.

This movie is the nastiest, funniest, and the cheesiest picture H.G. Lewis has ever produced. Obviously it’s a parody of his older work, but it’s such an interesting and sickening movie that I highly recommend it.

Hershell Gordon Lewis made crap. He made B-movie, gut-wrenching garbage for an audience of potential millions of teenage boys, who were just a little too weird to get girls, at least alive ones.The "Gore Gore Girls" does not fail to entertain this heretofore unexplored demographic. It's hilarity is undisputed. And, yes, Lewis knew he was making comedy.I don't think it's as good as 1963's "Bloodfeast" or even 1964's "Two Thousand Maniacs," which, as the first gore films ever released in America, have a much higher historical and cultural importance and are, in fact, primary historical source material.The "Gore Gore Girls" is an anarchic, nihilistic parody of its times, and it would be enjoyed by followers of Sade, Hobbes, and Malthus today. Feminists are sure to love the premise of the film, which I refuse to divulge.Buy this gory, disgusting, french fried, eye-popping, face cleaving masterpiece. Make sure to bring a milk glass.

It’s another fun movie like blood feast and wizard of gore.

Extremely Gory with a twist I did not see coming!

This film has been banned in Australia and will not have a dvd release. How the censorship board could find a badly made horror film from 1972, too graphic for public consumption is confusing. This film plays more like a comedy because of the bad production values (yes gore also), why is this unavailable to adults? Yes, there is violence against women, but have the censors seen the brutal violence on display in "Irreversible"? Have they released the dvd? Yes!What is happening to our freedom of choice?

Classic from the 60s.
