The only movie that Lewis ever sent to the MPAA - it got an X, so no surprises there - this is the kind of movie where a woman’s breasts are cut over with scissors to drink chocolate milk out of them, but it can still have themes of PTSD from Vietnam in 1972, years before any other filmmakers were articulating this issue.īut at heart (and guts and brains), this is a movie where a woman’s butt is beaten with a tenderizing hammer and then seasoned with salt and pepper. He’s a horrible person and in fact, nearly everyone in this movie is completely despicable, some kind of alternate world where everyone is absolute scum. Gentry keeps Weston drunk most of the time or gets her onstage to dance in an amateur contest but he’s just really trying to lure the killer into his clutches. Marzdone Mobilie, a man who owns plenty of jack shacks and strip clubs. Oh yeah - Henny Youngman also shows up as Mr. Or maybe its the feminists who are protesting all the male gaze in the go go club. Following him on his investigation, other food-themed dancers like Candy Cane and Pickles get killed with evidence that points to a man named Grout (Ray Sager), a Vietnam vet that misses smashing the heads of dead people during war and finds vegetables a poor substitute. Reporter Nancy Weston (Amy Farrell) has offered detective Abraham Gentry (Frank Kress) $50,000 if he can solve the murder of Suzie Cream Puff (Jackie Kroeger), as long as she gets the exclusive. The girl's roommate then comes in and gets her face shoved in the boiling French fry grease.This was a parody of everything that had come before in the gory and sleazy Herschell Gordon Lewis and if anything, goes even further than all that had been done in the past. Laughing Fit #3 happened when her nipple was cut off and the milk was caught in a champagne glass. This scene includes a chick making French fries while ironing before getting her throat cut and getting said iron to her face. Soon after this mind-boggling scene, we are almost immediately thrown into another murder scene that is even more random.
It is made even more amazing when the killer dashes a little salt and pepper on her freshly tenderized rump. Then the killer spanks the poor girl's butt bloody with a wooden meat tenderizer! What the hell?! That's kind of amazing and horrifying at the same time. Laughing Fit #2 came right at the beginning of this murder scene when the Circus Stripper (so named by me because of her dance sequence to odd circus-like music) randomly takes a cucumber out of her refrigerator (how subtle) before she has her throat cut and is bent over a kitchen table. Of course, this is not the best death in this movie.
