From the Grindhouse: Angels’ Wild Women/Satan’s Sadists
Ok, file this under “so-fucking-bad-it’s-genius”. Schlockmeister Al Adamson gave us this followup to his bike flick “Satan’s Sadists”, and this one is truly mind-boggling. Me and Jen watched it a few weeks ago, and had a blast. Barely cohesive “plot”, things that happen for no apparent reason, a Charles Manson-like guru who lives in his “commune” (which consists of one shack next to a restaurant and about five people), who kills people who find the bales of pot he has in his shack, just about every guy is a rapist, and just about every cliche about the 60′s counterculture is in here, in highly exaggerateed stereotypes.
And note in the trailer, the guy who gets “raped” by the women (“These sex or-gees is unnatural!”)is none other than Broadsides‘ Michael Colby, albeit a bit chunkier. Classic, gotta get it. You’ll puke laughing!:
Adamson’s original biker flick, Satan’s Sadists, not nearly as incompetent, but crappy, nonetheless. It killed West Side Story’s Russ Tamblyn’s career, that’s for sure.
Director Al Adamson, who married Regina Carrol (the “freak-out girl”) was later found murdered, buried under the concrete and tile-covered whirlpool bath in his newly remodeled bathroom. His contractor did it.

I’m not sure which is the best part of that first trailer, the line “All is not enough, they want even more” or the way the roof of that station wagon bursts into flames when it goes over the cliff.

Thanks for the plug. Few people know about my movie background. But someone had to do it…
