FEMMES DE SADE!


Hey kids, our good pal Christopher takes this weeks review!  So pop on that new Tegan and Sara album, pour some chamomile tea and sink right in!

*WARNING*

Hello.  My name is Christopher, King of the Witches and I'm here to do an occasional review.  You may know me from The Uneasy Archive or King of the Witches, but if you don't, those are video companies that deal in filth.  And by filth I mean porn.  And by porn I mean roughies.  And the occasional gore, sleaze, slasher, rape revenge, shot on video release.  In the nine or so months that I've been with the Uneasy Archive I've probably subjected myself to more extreme cinema and Golden Age pornography than I have in the past twenty-five years and what better way to purge it all from my system than through reviews?  Right.

Last year The Uneasy Archive released its second film, Femmes De Sade, which slowly became one of my favorite films.  I know, its porn.  How can that rank in my top films?  Easily.  While watching these films I often find myself thinking about them without the graphic sex scenes.  Think of films that got X-rated and non-X-rated releases.  If you took out a lot of the sex scenes from Femmes De Sade, sure it would be lacking a lot of important scenes, but it would still hold a very strong storyline. Like I said, it became one of my favorite films and definitely my favorite Uneasy Archive release to date, ranking above Wet Wilderness and even Water Power. So, that says a lot.

As a collector and lover of films, I'd been seeking out the very rare original release of the film on VHS, which comes in a strange metallic, oversized slipcases with a generic clamshell inside, for months. It had been on eBay once before and I lost it. But recently I came across another copy.  So, as a sort of victory dance, here's a review:

If you're not familiar with the film it's about a convict, Rocky De Sade(played by the massive Ken Turner) being released into the world and almost immediately after being released he's back at what I'm assuming got him locked up in the first place.  Rape.  And assault.  But more importantly rape.  Anyway, big dude ends up on the steamy streets of San Francisco sodomizing prostitutes and bullying helpless a helpless porn store clerk and his friends, who just so happen to be throwing the biggest fuckfest of the century, which Rocky plans on crashing. Eventually the prostitutes get fed up with having this eight foot tall, mustachioed gorilla sticking bottles up their twats and beating them senseless. So, with the knowledge that De Sade will be in attendance our heroine whores turn the fuckfest into an ambush while still maintaining their original fuckfest plans.  Poor old Rocky gets sodomized, defecated on, pissed on, beat, and then to add insult to injury the entire party traipses around the defeated monster while a jazz bands sings an overly catchy song about what just happened.  So yeah, if you don't think that that sounds like an awesome movie, I don't know what's wrong with you. Also, if you're into golden age porn, this movie has one of the most star spangled casts. It's got Annette Haven, John Leslie, Candida Royale, Leslie Bovee and the aforementioned Ken Turner.  Not to mention that it was made by the king himself, Alex DeRenzy.

I guess people like breakdowns, so here you go:
Violence: No blood or guts, but there's some great woman beating. So 7/10
Sex: It's a porno... 10/10
Bizarre Sexual Bullshit: Fake poop, real pee, self-sucking, bottle sodomy, puppy scene, blahblahblah. 9/10
Boobs: Lots of them. 10/10

It really is just an awesome movie and it gets a 10/10 as far as I'm concerned.

SAVAGE VENGEANCE


By Jimmy Squarejaw 

*WARNING*
All movies reviewed for SUNDAY SNUFF contain graphic depictions that may include rape, live animals being murdered, and extreme gore.  None of the writers condone such acts we just watch this shit. 

This week I’ll chat about the illegitimate sequel to I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE called SAVAGE VENGEANCE.  This little shot-on-video gem is directed by the shot-on-video maestro Donald Farmer and comes in at a staggering 65 minutes.  It’s one of the releases I picked up a few months back from the Uneasy Archive and I’ll say this right up front, I love this flick.

The movie starts off with bang, a gangbang that is!  A group of four sleazy looking guys just happen across Jennifer, who is reading a magazine peacefully on the side of a river in the middle of nowhere.  Well, just like in real life guys who roll in groups of four act on their impulses and decide to rape the complete stranger.  Now unlike I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, these guys keep all of their clothes on and all of hers except a shirt rip to expose her boobs.  They have their way with her and split the scene probably to go buy Metallica’s boxset, Live Shit: Binge & Purge! 

After the rape we get a “5 years later” screen that leads us to being smack dab in the middle of a college class where the rape and subsequent murder of all the rapists is a hot topic on the discussion block.  As the situation is discussed with the early 90’s college students the movie bounces through quick little clips of Jennifer killing all the rapists.  After class Jennifer, who looks great and not the slightest bit damaged, plans to go on a little trip with her friend Sam instead of finals and journey off to another rape ready cabin.  Of course the young, bright, women attract the attention of another group of scumbag rapists who work and hang around the local convenience mart. These fellas track Sam down first to rape and kill, then they set their sights on Jennifer who gets another vaginal dose of pungent smelling loin juice.  Well, that’s when the “Savage” comes into the story.  Of course she makes her way through the group, you'll have to see for yourself, and the finale scene involving a chainsaw is AWESOME. 

This is a great flick for anyone who digs shot-on-video movies, other than that most of the people watching it would turn it off.  I love the pace and runtime of the movie, not because I wanted it to be over but because there is literally no down time during the movie and it entertained the shit out of me!  The movie is available on DVD but it’s out of print and there are a few different VHS versions out there.  For those of you who can track it down pick it up, it’s worth it! 

Blake and Jimmy’s Extreme-O-Gauge!

Realistic Gore: 2 out of 5, low budget effects but there are some goodies in there.
Rape: 3 out of 5, yes getting raped by 7 or 8 guys in one movie is a lot.  But it’s all pretty tame and the only shock is a few sets of boobs.
Animal Death: 0 out of 0.
Necrophilia: 0 out of 0, but that would be cool if Jennifer raped one of the corpses!
Torture: 2 out of 5, little bit of torturous revenge.
Overall Movie:  4 out of 5, entertaining low budget flick but everyone might not be a fan.
