Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
The Syndicate has hired Donna to blackmail a politician. She's supposed to drug him, but the drug ends up giving the old fellow a heart attack(which was the plan all along, unbeknownst to Donna). Donna doesn't want to be a part of this and high tails it out of town and heads for Mexico. Almost immediately after leaving, the two women who recruited her, Erica the assassin and Sandra the prison escapee, set out to catch and kill her for trying to run. Then, a series of "unfortunate events" occur. Donna's car is stolen by a hitchhiker at a rundown gas station run by a tubby born-again Christian. Then Donna accepts a ride from an old gem collector who promptly drives her in his old Datsun back to his place to pleasure his idiot son. While she leaves the son in the lurch, Donna steals the truck and takes off down the old dirt road for God knows where with barely any fuel. Meanwhile, Erica and Sandra find the hitchhiker and blow her brains out then speed back to the filling station to find Donna who ironically was there when they stopped to ask Tubby if he'd seen the blue Pinto Donna drove. Then they find out where the old man lives and burn rubber out that way. WELL! By this time, Donna has indeed run out of gas and as luck would have it, a bo-hunk with the traditional 70's beard pulls up out of nowhere and she remembers him from the gas station. Well, she's got no time to worry if he's a serial rapist or whatnot, so she accepts a ride from him back to his campsite in the mountains. Then things get hairy. Erica and Sandra find the old man's house and promptly pistol whip him then later, Sandra rapes his idiot son and puts a bullet in his skull just as he's about to, well, you know.Now, I don't want to spoil the ending chase scene which completely comes out of left field and doesn't at all have the sort of storyline you'd expect from Hollywood. Let's just say the words Dune Buggy and Machine Gun are something you need to be familiar with for the last five minutes of this flick.I imagine they slapped this film with the silly video title of I Spit on Your Corpse to cash in on the popularity of the cult hit I Spit on Your Grave. This isn't a revenge thriller in that vein at all. For fans of bad films, you'll be surprised at the final scenes which actually are pretty good. And! the music! The soundtrack was the best thing about this movie. Real jazzy, almost blue music, that really changed to meet the needs of the action scenes. Very surprising, indeed. Overall, this film is the absolute best 70's adult film ever made....minus the sex scenes. There are several gratuitous bare breast shots and most of the babes in this movie were probably in other forgotten adult films, as they stand around to look hot and have no lines. If this film had been shot in two versions, one being hardcore XXX, then it would rate much much higher, I wager.This isn't a well-known film and I only watched it because I mistakenly thought it was a horror movie. Also, I had never seen any other "work" done by Georgina Spelvin so I didn't know which character she was until the movie was over. I can't believe I'm actually sort of recommending this, if you like cheese.
Considering that the film has a score of 2.1 and it was made by Al Adamson, you'd expect the film to be a lot worse. Now I am NOT saying it was good--it really does suck. But the film isn't nearly as bad as I'd assume--and I definitely assume the worst when I see an Adamson film!! He definitely ranks in the top 10 of worst film directors of all time--along with such great "auteurs" as Ed Wood, Ted Mikels, Hershell Gordon Lewis, William Grefe, Ray Dennis Steckler and the like. If you don't believe me, try watching Adamson's Dracula VS. FRANKENSTEIN, HORROR OF THE BLOOD MONSTERS, HELL'S BLOODY DEVILS and FIVE BLOODY GRAVES (the only one I listed that I managed to rate as high as 2 and most of his films have overall ratings in the range of 1.5-2.5). He truly was a genius at creating garbage--and bad film fans like me enjoy laughing at the ineptitude of the man and his films. But, as I was saying, this film isn't nearly as bad as this list of dreck...though, naturally, it still is dreck! The film is about a team of two female assassins who use a prostitute to kill a man. THe prostitute has no idea she's being used when she slips a pill into the man's drink for the assassins. When the man then dies, the prostitute takes off for Mexico. But, the assassins' boss is a careful man and he orders the two to follow her and kill her--he wants no witnesses. The rest of the film is a cross-country journey to complete this hit.At no point in the film is there any real excitement or thrills. The chases are amazingly low-speed, dull and filled with Ford Pinto vehicles (now THAT'S the perfect chase car!). As a result, the best the film can deliver is a mild break from the tedium. This break from the tedium also occurs when the ladies in the film inexplicably take off their clothes--often at the most inopportune and ridiculous moment. The worst example is the sick and degenerate scene involving one of the lady assassins raping a retarded guy and shooting him in the head during this! It's not funny but gross and even Adamson should have been ashamed of himself for this outrage. But, even with this sick touch, the film manages to entertain at times (particularly at the film's climax--no pun intended), though this is quite accidental. I'd score this one a 2 and because of the retarded rape scene, I DON'T recommend you see it--some things are better left unseen.
Low-budget schlock director, Al Adamson & frequent collaborator, John D'Amato tell this story of Sandra Tate (adult movie star Georgina Spelvin of "Devil in Miss Jones" & "the Jade Pussycat" fame) a prisoner who escapes from custody during a cat-fight between the other female prisoners before she's picked up by Erica, a member of a crime syndicate who whisks her away to the head of said organization who promptly offers her a job which she promptly accepts. When the prostitute whom she hires to help eliminate her first assignment (a politician with a bad heart) bugs out and skips town for the border, Sandra & Erica are hot on her trail to tie up this loose end (no pun intended) I'm not usually too found of Al Adamson helmed films (Doctor Dracula & Dracula Vs. Frankenstien are utterly abysmal), but compared to his other output, this picture is actually pretty good. Doesn't hurt that I like Georgina Spelvin and think she was an under-rated golden age adult star (speaking of which she plays a real piece of work here) The movie drags in parts and has some filler, but the dune buggy/car chase was pretty good and although the movie was far from perfect I didn't feel as if I wasted my time watching it.Eye Candy: Sandy Carey & Tallie Cochrane get topless; Susan McIver and Georgina Spelvin both show T&A My Grade: C-
You may have put aside all the trash from trash video distributors like, you know, the ones behind this; you may think you won't give Al Adamson (director) or Samuel Sherman (producer) a second chance to trip you into a poor evening watching cheap soft-core, but!... This jewel of a cheap, quick movie here, made up in 60 days, has superb acting, reasonable direction, well photographed mountain and desert scenarios, creditable script (with not that many goofs), and - being a crime movie, action, thriller - a surprise ending. No, I won't reveal if it's better for you to drive into the desert with a car full of petrol, or without it. You shall find by yourself. If you can find this videotape somewhere, rent it, buy it, or rob it. If you had seen it, you'd opt for the third option, for sure :-))
