Reviews
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
IncaWelCar In truth, any opportunity to see the film on the big screen is welcome.
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Ed-Shullivan I was not impressed. I enjoy Amazon themed films and what guy doesn't enjoy watching dozens of nubile young blondes dancing around a campfire? But in this case the film lacks any substance whatsoever. The lead character is a guy named David (Michael Latimer) who is supposed to be an African big game hunter but instead he is the one who gets caught by a tribe of hot lusty women.So boy meets girl, or should I say boy meets two girls. One blonde slave girl, and one brunette princess who wants to shag our male hero David. There is absolutely no good action or thriller scenes in this film. I thought the amount of time wasted on a variety of tribal dance scenes that went on way too long wasted almost one third of the entire film which made the film even more boring if that was even possible.I give it a higher than deserved 3 out of 10 rating because of the blonde slave girls who were hot and abundant, but other than that you could get the same thrill out of scanning through a few pages of some old National Geographic magazines.
Wuchak RELEASED IN 1967 and written/directed by Michael Carreras, "Prehistoric Women" (aka "Slave Girls") chronicles events in deepest African when a hunting guide (Michael Latimer) enters the forbidden area of the white rhino and passes through a portal into a prehistoric world where dark-haired white women led by Queen Kari (Martine Beswick) cruelly rule over blondes. Meanwhile, all men are kept captive in a cave dungeon, which is where the guide will find himself if he doesn't submit to Kari's amorous whims.Beswick is striking and has a killer body, but she never tripped my trigger, maybe because she seems too Amazonian. Regardless, the flick's filled with gorgeous women, including the protagonist's wannabe babe, Saria (Edina Ronay). The indoor English sets are too obvious, contrasted by the authentic opening location shots.There are so many curious native dance sequences that the movie borders on being a musical. Thankfully, they're entertaining and the tribal ditties are catchy. The story seems to be a commentary on gender dynamics from a late 60's English perspective, but the film's too cheesy to take overly serious. Nevertheless, it has its points of interest, particularly the prehistoric women (lol).THE MOVIE RUNS 1 hour 30 minutes and was shot in England (Elstree Studios, Borehamwood) with establishing shots of Africa.GRADE: C
JohnHowardReid Robert Raglen was such a huge success on TV from 1946 through 1983, we tend to forget that he also made quite a few movies. This is not one of his better ones. All the same, as written, produced and directed by Michael Carreras (take no notice of the names you actually see on the screen – they are merely pseudonyms), it's an enjoyable enough romp, featuring a bevy of gorgeous blondes and a cohort of seductive brunettes. And it certainly can't be alleged against Major Carreras that he fails to extract all the excitement possible from the intriguing screenplay he hashed up under his Henry Younger alias. The color camera-work by Michael Reed is first class. So are the sets and costumes. And as for the girls, they can dance for us any time they please!
utgard14 Hammer hokum about a hunter with high-waisted pants who finds himself in a jungle kingdom where pretty brunettes rule over pretty blondes (I kid you not). The brunettes' horny leader (Martine Beswick) takes a liking to him but he's more into blondes. Drama ensues. Cheesy Hammer 'lost world' film with a campy performance from sexy Martine Beswick. Love that seductive dance scene. It may seem tame by today's standards but I'm sure in the '60s a movie full of babes in fur bikinis was very titillating. Lots of unintentionally funny lines and situations. The very premise of brunettes enslaving blondes is laughable. It's no classic but it is goofy fun. Not the kind of movie you really can or should take seriously.
