OOP DVD
If you’re one of those whiny dinks that watch exploitation and bitch and moan about the lighting, camera work or production values you obviously don’t “get it”. Truly sleazy cinema isn’t meant to be appreciated for its technical brilliance…IT’S ALL ABOUT THE NOOKIE. The smut peddlers that made these films knew they weren’t creating the next Gone with the Wind or Casablanca, they knew they’d end up flickering away in some dark theater filled with men wearing raincoats. Hey Kurosawa geeks, those sticky floors weren’t from pop and candy!
When I came across Blue Underground’s recent release of Amazon Jail I expected nothing less than semi-naked women in the Amazon. Imagine my surprise when I found out there wasn’t many semi-naked women in the Amazon! Nope, THEY WERE ALL NAKED IN THE AMAZON. Not only were they all naked but apparently they liked to catfight naked and wash each other’s clams! Thank God I smoked some crushed lithium in my crack pipe before popping this in because my heart almost stopped several times during this film.
This flick had more beaver than a fur storage warehouse!
There’s not much story here but who in the HELL cares?
A rich, scumbag white slaver is kidnapping women and turning them out as sex slaves for international buyers and businessmen. As you can imagine, the girls locked in a cage in the yard aren’t one bit pleased that they’re being forced to dance and partake in orgies. To show their protest, they constantly prance around the giant cage…naked.
Luckily for the girls, scumbag white slaver has a sympathetic nephew that enjoys getting it on with their “leader” through the cage while she’s…naked. He promises to help free them all and go to the police. Too bad he’s not all that bright though because his uncle is on to him and decides to lock him up in his room during an orgy.
During the fleshly camaraderie one of the girls makes a break for it into the jungle with trackers hot on her trail. Fortunately for her she runs into a group of young local girls bathing in a waterfall…heh heh…naked. They decide to help her but not before the trackers show up and capture all four of them. That night, dancing girl devises an escape by allowing one of the trackers to bang her while she stabs him in the back. Before she can make it very far, the trackers shoot her in the back. Hmm, no blood? WHO CARES!
When the hired hands bring back three new girls, scumbag white slaver is notified that the local police plan to investigate their disappearance. The shit has officially hit the fan and it’s time for the whole damn camp to bug out! Love struck nephew decides to free the girls during the commotion but they’re forced to split up. The group of girls hustle their bare asses into the jungle looking to escape…naked.
Leadership will be challenged…mercy will be sought and the soft touch of a loving lesbian will be required but beware…lonely gold miners working in the jungle haven’t seen women in quite some time. Some girls will die…others will wash each other’s ‘ginas.
MY GOD. This was so far down on the sleaze-o-meter that it’s almost a MUST HAVE film! This was presented in widescreen (1.66) format and the transfer looked wonderful. Granted, it was only made in ’82 but that’s more than enough time to be mishandled and deteriorate.
Despite having been made in Brazil, there’s only an English (2.0 mono) audio track available. I would have preferred subs and the original Portuguese audio but ultimately you don’t need sound or a fabulous picture to appreciate this slab of sinful stroketastic cinema.
On the extras front…don’t hold your breath. A trailer is presented here and that’s it. No featurettes, no stills, not even audio commentary by anybody connected with this film; not that admitting that would help their careers any but it would have been nice. Perhaps a small packet of lotion would have been better?
Exploitation fans will have a ball. The sheer amount of jiggling ass in this film would put most rap videos to shame. Don’t take my word for it though, just look at my hairy palm.
