DVD Reviews of She Wolves of the Wasteland
DVD Review: Scantily Clad Girls with lots of guns... Awesome!
Summary: 2 Stars
This movie is terribly awesome, with an emphasis on terrible. Sometimes I like watching bad movies; they're just fun to watch. This movie made in the late 80's is definitely a gem and worth the entire zero dollars I got for it thanks to Amazons four for three deal! Despite the fact that this was awesomely bad, I can't in good conscience give it the same rating I would to a real five star film like the first Matrix. It's just not on the same scale and since Amazon doesn't differentiate, I am forced to resort to just one. For a B-movie this was just fun and funny and probably a three or four stars based on the B-movie spectrum.
As far as B movies go I thought this actually had a really cool story premise. I'm kind of a sucker for Post-Apocalyptic films, because I think it's interesting to see how people perceive the human race struggling to survive once society has been demolished. It's obviously so influenced by Mad Max it's not even funny. However, there's an added twist. There are no longer any men in the lands and society has turned into this estranged matriarchal styled government/society. The Reverend Mother of this society has strange powers for some reason and has lived an unusually long life by draining people of their life essence. At least that's what I'm assuming, the whole general background behind how things got this way is kind of skipped over.
The major issue with me is that the story is so loosely put together it's kind of annoying and I had a lot more questions than answers half the time. Also time seems to pass in years, but for the viewer it feels like a few seconds. So society has just turned into shambles and the Reverend Mother's iron grip has everyone living a less than fulfilling life. However, there's this breeding situation that the Reverend Mother also controls and the movie opens with two escapees from her facilities. One of which is carrying a male child. This is shocking because that male child could change the face of the human race! So that concept alone was pretty interesting. However, when a bounty hunter is about to capture the girl, Keela, Pheonix comes out of nowhere and saves her. No reason why, no explanation, it just happened... So they escape and go back to Pheonix's Sandtrapper camp. Which features topless girls in waterfalls; this is really all you get for nudity in the film, so people buying it for this reason will probably be rather disappointed. However, when Pheonix picked up Keela she didn't look pregnant at all... but when they're back at the camp the next night she's giving birth. You figure it out, I can't explain it. Oh did I mention that Keela played by Peggy McIntaggert displays probably some of the worst acting I've ever seen... I know she is featured in Playboy and so forth and I probably shouldn't expect much, but seriously when she's giving birth she sounds like she's having an orgasm, not giving birth. Seriously, they're not the same thing! Pheonix played by Kathleen Kinmont at least was a little more convincing. I mean, I obviously wasn't expecting top notch acting, but most of these people did a fairly decent job despite being amateurs, but McIntaggert was overacting every single scene she was in.
So anyway, you've been forewarned to some of this film's misgivings. A few other key points is that the girls rarely hold the guns right when they fire them, especially one scene featured with a girl firing a sawed off shot gun, no you don't hold that at your waist. Also there is one scene where Pheonix is trying to sneak back into camp after hearing gun fire and she's holding her M-16 by the top handle... like it's a briefcase. So after you hear shots being fired you're going to hold your gun by the top handle... genius! Honestly, I'm not going to cry over this because I wanted to watch a movie with scantily clad females firing guns, and this movie delivers that in wonderful amounts! Anyway, there is a scene where they get captured and Pheonix has to fight in an arena. Yes, I saw this in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome... and they're just repeating that, with an emphasis on Roman gladiatorial combat concepts (maybe that makes it more original?). In another scene they come across this television cult that essentially sacrifices people to the airwaves and for prayer they list off TV shows. It's hilarious and that concept is awesome. Yes, I am aware it's a variation on the people lost in the desert in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome as well.
This movie was painfully done on the cheap, since amidst all the desert wandering all the towns have the same exact population of the same exact girls. Doesn't matter, I wasn't expecting high budget and no one else should either. I thought this movie was pretty decent for what it is and the either intentional or unintentional comedic factor is totally worth it. It is replete with bad acting, girls with less clothes than makes sense, and lots of gun fights between aforementioned bikini clad females. Glorious, if you ask me. That's what I wanted and that's what I got. The movie conceptually is fairly decent and as far as B-movies goes it's probably not that bad, but I can't give this much more than this. What can I say, I wanted to see an awesomely bad movie and this delivers, don't expect a huge amount from this film and you'll probably be greatly amused like I was.
