Customer Reviews

Makes the mafia look like brownies
Russ Meyer has to be one of the most under-rated directors of all-time. His films are comicbook and cartoonish in style, everything is exaggerated. Men are generally portrayed as weak, impotent losers to which his powerful, oversexed women throw scorn and ridicule. This film is no exception. And along with FW Murnau's Expressionist masterpiece "Faust", "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" also features one of my favourite opening sequences to any film. Go baby, go!

Amazing...
If you've not seen it, watch it. An excellent film on all counts. It transports you to another world and you carnt take your eyes of it for a second. Tarantino said he would have loved to make a series of films with Tura Santana 'Varla' and you can see why. She gets what she wants, if not with her karate skills then with her other assets (Tarantino has however made Death Proof and the similarities are there to see). Completely unforgettable film and im not giving anything more away, in fact im going to give it another watch right now...

classic
This film is as good if not better than Pulp Fiction. It may be from the 60s, but it's one of those films where you get drawn into its world from the very first scene, and you're transported into another dimension that doesn't seem to belong to any time-frame. There are no rules or structural cliches that 99.9% of other films insist on conforming to, yet the narrative and overall plot-line is strong throughout. It never gets boring. The central theme of female empowerment and independence doesn't grate like it does with so many other films which focus on that issue. It's just a surreal, high-octane work of genius from start to finish.

Definitely in my top 10 films of all time. Although I have to say I've seen five or six subsequent films by Russ Meyer and they were all rubbish.
