Spaced Out AKA Outer Touch Review

 

Ladies and gentlemen since i've mostly been spotlighting American s*x based films I thought that it was time that I now highlight a British made and British produced and British released s*x based film. I will fully admit that it took me at least a few month to find even just one copy of this film but you can bet that I soon as I did find a copy of this film I went ahead downloaded the film right away and so join me as I review the 1981 film that has two titles with the film in question being called either Outer Touch" of this film is also simply called "Spaced Out" enjoy.

Now here is where I would normally tell you what the plot of this film and is and as well as the fact that i'd also give you my opinions on the plot of the film in question. However the makers of this film chose not to include / give this film any kind of plot whatsoever which is always a bad thing because without a plot your film has no reason to exist and well since this film is already pretty I honestly feel that this film really could have used some form of plot just to make this film possibly a very little freaking bit better in my humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Starring in this film is Barry Stokes as Oliver , Tony Maiden as Willy , Glory Annen as Cosia and Michael Rowlatt as Cliff. Also starring in this film is Ava Cadell as Partha , Kate Ferguson as Skipper and Lynn Ross as Prudence. Now then there are two names that i've deliberately left of this cast list and that's simply because I cannot confirm if they are actually in the film or not and while that won't make sense now it will hopefully make sense later on in this very review or at the very least by the end of this very review.

In terms of what I though about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very film ib all honesty the acting that's featured / resented to us in this very film is exactly the kind of acting that you'd expect to see in a British s*x comedy. In that all of the acting is really over the top but in this case that's not a bad thing since the script for this film really does demand over the top and it helps that actors in this film are generally really enjoyable to watch but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways. 

Now then boys and girls there are technically a few cast members missing from the cast list that I provided since for  some strange reason when this film was getting released in America not only did it's title get changed from Outer Touch to Spaced Out but the film also replaced Noel Davis as The Voice Of The Ships Computer and Bill Mitchell as The Voice Of The Wurlitzer. With those two actors being replaced with Jeff De Hart as The Voice Of The Ships Computer and i'm not kidding Bob Saget as Voice Of The Wurlitzer. 

Try as I might I couldn't work out which version of the film that I was currently watching since I couldn't hear an American accent coming out of The Wurlitzer but I could here a British accent coming out of the ships computer. To make matters even more confusing the title on the copy of the film that I was watching had the name Spaced Out which made it really hard to work out which version / copy of the film that i was currently / presently watching.

Just like with Eve And The Handyman this film was pretty hard to review simply because nothing really happens in this film / movie. Since there's no plot a all in this film and so all of the scenes that appear / happen in this film just film like that they are happening for some unknown reasons / some unknown reasons and that does / can make this film very hard to sit through just because your waiting for anything regarding a plot to surface and as well as the fact that your also waiting for things in this film to actually get going.

Now while I fully admit that I haven't seen the movie Star Babe I will fully admit that the idea of doing a s*x comedy set in and based in space does honestly / in all honesty sound like a really good idea in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways. Simply because there's really an unlimited supply of jokes that you do in that space setting and while this film is just limited to the female aliens spaceship (because yes all three of the aliens in this film are attractive females) simply just the idea of doing a s*x comedy both set and as well as being based in space is a really good idea but that's just what I think and that's just in my very humble and as well as being my very honest opinion anyways.

This film has a total running time of simply just one hour and seventeen minuets and seventeen seconds and given that this film has no plot to speak of whatsoever you really do feel every single second of this running time. Since like I just said in this very part of this very review that this film has no plot to speak of whatsoever that means that this film can feel boring which for any film regardless of how long the film is always a freaking bad thing since you never ever ever want your audience to feel bored what so freaking ever.

Now then boys and girls this film is a comedy film after all and that that means that I have to talk about the actual jokes that are featured / presented to us in this / the actual film itself and in my opinion the jokes that are featured / presented to us in this / the actual film itself are really freaking funny. Which given that this a British s*x comedy really shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone since us British people have a wonderful sense of humour and a wonderful sense of dry wit both of which sine through in this film but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways. 

Overall this is a pretty bad to a pretty average film in my very humble and as well as being in my my honest opinion anyways. Which is a shame because the idea of a British s*x comedy that's set and based in space is good idea but this film just couldn't do much with that idea since like i've said several times in this very review this film has no plot to speak of whatsoever and since i've talked about both of the good and both of the bad things that are in this film in this very review that means that this film gets a 2.5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well I personally got all of the images that I used in this very review from Google Images and the official Fuller House Season One fandom wiki page and since I got all of the images from this film from google Images. I have no choice but to recommend that you guys use Google Images if for some unknown or for some strange reason that you guys want to have images from this film since the images that I found on Google Images ranged from either very quality to fairly high quality to very low quality so you'll be getting a very mixed bag when it comes to image quality but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Eve And The Handyman Review

 

Honestly boys and girls I honestly have no freaking clue how i'm going to intro this review because this film is freaking bad that I honestly considered scrapping / canning this review mere moments / seconds / minuets before I started writing this very review because this film is that freaking bad. As such all I have to say is join me as I review the 1961 Russ Meyer film that made me want to cancel this review before I even started this review and before I even reached the half way point of the film because this film is that bad with the film itself being called simply "Eve And The Handyman" enjoy.

Now then boys and girls here is where I would normally summarise what the plot of this film is and thus give you my opinions on the plot of this film. However Russ Meyer chose not to give this film any kind of plot whatsoever which is always a bad move since even bad Russ Meyer movies have at least a very weak / a very small plot but this film doesn't have a plot and so what we are left with is a film has no story and doesn't even try to tell a story which defeats the purpose of this film even existing because the film now has no purpose / no reason to exist.

There are only three main actors in this film with the people who are starring in this film being Eve Meyer as Eve , Anthony-James Ryan as The Handyman and Lee Merrin as The Narrator of this particular film. Like I said there are only three main actors in this film with the rest of the films cast being extra's and nothing more and some of this films characters are all for some strange reason being played by Eve Meyer herself and they never even explain why almost half if not all of the girls in the town this film is set in all look like Eve Meyer which I felt was a rather odd choice.

In terms of what I thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film in all honesty the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film isn't that bad and that's just based on the fact that the only person doing any kind of acting is Lee Merrin. Since yeah neither Eve Meyer or Anthony-James Ryan speak at all in this film which kind of makes it hard to judge there acting in this film but I will say that both Eve Meyer and Anthony-James Ryan look like that are perfectly cast in this film.

This film is very much like The Immoral Mr. Teas in that there are very freaking few main characters in this film and that none of the characters in both films actually have speak / have any lines of dialog. This makes me wonder if Russ Meyer was trying to make this film be almost exactly like The Immoral Mr. Teas but what he instead should have done is make this film actually good instead of trying to copy what worked in what was then his only successful film but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways. 

In a rather shocking move there is very little to no nudity in this film whatsoever which considering that this is a Russ Meyer film was a bit shock to me personally. Which honestly made it very hard for me to justify it being on this blog since this film is so safe for work that it could fit on my main blog (Movies Reviews Are Awesome click right here to take you to the blog in question) which honestly makes me wonder why the poster in this film says that this film is for adults only since there's nothing that's in this film that's strictly for adults.

Like I said at the start of this review this film is so bad that it honestly made me want to can / scrap this review. Which is a very rare thing for me to do and the only other film that made me want to scrap / can the review of that film was the 2008 animated film Delgo and so it takes alot for me to even consider not reviewing a movie and this film almost got me to that point because nothing really happens in this film at all but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

This film is meant to be a romance film (at least it's meant to be a romance film according to IMDB at least) and there's nothing in this film that even hints at a romance between our two main characters or any of the characters that appear in this film at all. As such I have to wonder where the heck / hell IMDB got the idea that this film was meant to be a romance film because there's nothing romantic about this film at all infact the main female character Eve comes across as a bit of a stalker since she spends the entire film following her supposed love interest while he's just trying to do his normal / average work.

This film has a total running time of one hour and eleven minuets and thirty four seconds which / and even tho that is a very short running time considering that this film has no plot whatsoever that running time still feels a bit on the long side. Honestly since this film has no plot to speak of whatsoever there's / I see no reason as to why this film couldn't have been at the very most fifteen to twenty minuets long since that's all the time you really need in order to tell whatever the basic premise of this film is actually supposed to be.

Now then boys and girls this film is listed as a comedy film on IMDB and so that means that I have to talk about the actual comedy that's featured / presented to us in this / the actual film itself and if i'm being the comedy thats featured / presented to us in this film is the best part of this film. Since alot of the jokes in this film are really funny with my personal favourite joke in this film being one that involves an alarm clock that just won't stop ringing since it's a simple set up and the pay off is really freaking funny in my opinion and I do have to say that this film has alot of scenes which are just very long set ups all for various punchlines that just aren't funny at all but I always say all form of comedy are subjective and so just because I found alot of the jokes in this film to be rather unfunny doesn't mean that you won't find those jokes to be funny and just because I found a joke in this film to be rather funny doesn't mean that you guys / some of you guys or girls might find that same joke to be rather unfunny.

Overall out of all of the Russ Meyer films / movies that i've seen this is perhaps one of the worst ones simply because it's not only a bad film but it's also a really bad Russ Meyer and a rather boring film on top of all of that. Now then boys and girls since i've talked about both of the good things that are to be found in this film in this review and i've also talked about both of the bad things that are to be found in this film in this very review and as you can tell I didn't like this film at all that means that this film gets a 2 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got all of the images that I used in this review well I got all of the images that I used in this very review from Google Images and nowhere ese and since I only went to Google Images and nowhere else for / to get the images that I used in this very review. That means that I have no other choice but to recommend that you guys use Google Images if for some unknown reason you find yourself wanting to use images from this film and it does help that alot of the images that I personally found on Google Images are fairly high definition and fairly high quality as well.

Lorna Review

 

Ladies and gentlemen this review blog is going to be dedicated to reviewing films that belong to the sexploitation genre since not alot of people either no about or talk about any of those films. With that in mind I couldn't pass up the chance to talk about the king the sexploitation genre that being Russ Meyer and so join me as I review the 1964 Russ Meyer sexploitation film with the film itself being the first serious Russ Meyer film with the film itself being called simply "Lorna" enjoy.

The plot of the film is a bored housewife Lorna takes in a stranger unaware that he is an ex-convict meanwhile her husband Jim is at work and making plans for the couples first anniversary as a married couple. In terms of what I thought about the plot of this film in all honesty the plot of this film is in my opinion pretty good but at the same time plot itself is very weak which is a shame because I honestly did like the plot of this film.

Starring in this film is Lorna Maitland as Lorna , Mark Bradley as The Convict and James Rucker as Jim. Also starring in this film is Hal Hopper as Luther , Doc Scortt as Jonah , Althea Currier as Ruthie , Fred Owens as Ezra , Frank Bolger as Silas , Ken Parker as The Fisherman and we have the actual writer of this film Mister James Griffith as The Man Of God. What I personally find to be really interesting is that very few of the characters in this film have names with the vast majority of the characters that are appearing in this film instead going by whatever they are seen doing in this film or whatever there character in this film is meant to be which is something that I personally found to be rater interesting but that's just me.

In terms of what I thought about the acting that's featured /presented to us in this film in all honesty the acting that featured / presented to us in this film is alot better then it really had any right to be. Which is something that I personally found to be quite shocking mostly / simply because alot of the Russ Meyer films that i've personally had acting that was either very bad or acting that was at best OK and as such it was truly shocking to me personally / for me personally to see a Russ Meyer film that had some genuinely good acting in it.

I honestly feel that this film is perhaps one of if not the most dramatic films that Russ Meyer has ever made since even tho it has all of the things that we love in a Russ Meyer film. It also has interesting characters and alot of misdirection's in the plot all of which help make the film both interesting and as well entertaining because you never know what's going to happen next and you never know how the characters will be effected by whatever happens next either.

There is no way that I could review this film and not talk about the absolute fantastic and truly shocking ending. Simply because this is an ending that I personally never saw coming which trust me is a very rare thing and even when this ending was about to happen I didn't think that they would go all the way with this ending but nope they go all the way with this ending which not only makes this ending very memorable but also tragic at the same time.

What makes this ending tragic is the fact that Russ Meyer has the films female lead character Lorna die at the hands of someone that she's been shall we see keeping very good company with. This is something that not alot of filmmakers would go all the way with since alot of filmmakers would have the female lead survive the film but no Russ Meyer and screen writer and actor  James Griffith go all the way by having Lorna die basically at the hands of someone that she's been keeping very good company with and this makes the ending all the more tragic because mere moments earlier we see how much that she truly loves her husband Jim and that she even regrets doing what she's been doing while Jim has been away at work.

I honestly really do applaud this film since you hear of a Russ Meyer sexploitation film and you think of something like Supervixens or Beneath The Valley Of The Ultra Vixens. However what this film gives you is instead two characters who do truly care for each other and a story that is really crafted even if the plot of the film is pretty freaking weak but even so I think that this film is a very good example of what Russ Meyer could do when he was at his peak and as well in what is my opinion at least his absolute best.

This film has a total running time of one hour nineteen minuets and fifteen seconds which even for a story as thin as the story that's in this film that running time is still a bit on the long side. Since there really isn't enough story to cover that running time heck there's barely enough story to cover anything that's even close to an hour and as such I have to think that this film would have been better suited if this film was at least forty to forty five or fifty to fifty minuets long but it should be one hour nineteen minuets and fifteen seconds tho.

As a drama I really did like this film just due to the fantastic and truly shocking ending but what I also liked about this film is the fact that there are no true villains and as well as the fact that there are no true heroes either. Since our main female Lorna sleeps with a stranger multiple times and the person that we are led to believe is going to be the films main villain actually helps Lorna and Jim out in the fantastic ending and as such every single character in this film is more shades of grey then being straight up black and white.

Overall even tho i'm big fan of both Supervixens and as well as Beneath The Valley Of The Ultra Vixens. I honestly feel that this film is the best film that director Russ Meyer has ever made and since i've talked about both the good and as well as both of the bad things that are in this film in this very review boys and girls this film gets an 8 out of 10 from me and as for where I got all of the images that I used in this review. Well boys and girls I got all of the images that I used in this very review from Google Images and nowhere else and since I only went to Google Images for the images that I used in this very review I have no choice but to recommend that you guys use Google Images if for some reason that you wanted to use images from this very film.

Deadly Weapons Review

 

Film fans i'm always on the look out for alot more obscure films to watch and review and well I think i've found a film that is pretty freaking obscure. Heck every little thing about this film just screams obscure from the fact that the main actress that's in this film starred in only two possibly three films and has had her scenes cut from another film and so join me as I review the 1974 film that is so freaking obscure that it's actually unreal how obscure this film with the film itself being called simply "Deadly Weapons" enjoy.

Now here is where I would normally tell you what the plot of the film is and as well as give you my opinion on the plot of the film as a whole. However this film has no plot and by that I mean that there is some resemblance of a plot but this film picks up and drops of it's plot so many times that it's unreal and as such the plot of this film might as well not even be there which is a very bad thing because all films and all media should always have a plot. 

Starring in this film is Zsa Zsa aka Chesty Morgan as Crystal , Harry Reemes as Tony and Greg Reynolds as Larry , Saul Meth as Nick and as A Talent agent , Phillip Stahl as Crystal's Father , Mitchell Fredericks as Captain Hook , Denise Purcell as Eve and John McMohon as an unknown character. Just like with alot of obscure films the makers of this film chose to cast unknown actors in the film and it really does show in the overall quality of the acting but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

In terms of what I thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this film , to say that the acting that's featured / resented to us in this film is bad would be a huge freaking understatement since the acting in this film is so freaking bad. Like I honestly cannot think of one single good performer / actor in this film because every actor just gives a really wooden performance and it hurts the film very freaking badly.

This film was produced and directed by exploitation film legend Doris Wishman who mostly directed exploitation films. To say that she has a different approach to making an exploitation film then say Russ Meyer would be a huge understatement because even tho the two film makers work within the same genre of film Doris mainly focused on trying to tell a good story instead of making her female stars seem like goddesses which only works if you have a decent story to tell which sadly is one of the many things that this film is very sadly lacking but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways.

Despite having a plot that makes the film look pretty silly , an actress with a pretty silly stage name and a barebones plot that is honestly pretty freaking silly this film is oddly not a comedy. Which is a shame because everything about this film would be perfect an a s*x comedy film and heck if this was a s*x comedy film then i'd be alot more forgiving on the film because the things that I don't like about the film would then seem pretty tongue in cheek.

I get that Doris Wishman wanted to make this a serious film but all of that seriousness goes out of the window when you hire an actress called Chesty Morgan. The second that Chesty Morgan was hired the film should have been turned into a comedy because nobody / no one is going to take the film seriously at that point even more so when you have not one but two scenes where our main female character kills two guys by smothering them to death with her larges breasts / large boobs. 

The worst thing about this film is also worst crime / sin that this film commits and that's the fact that this film is boring / incredibly boring. No matter what kind of film your making you don't want your film to be boring and that's sadly what this film is and heck just to give you an idea of how boring this film I started writing this review when this film was still playing because I was that bored with the film and I just wanted the / this film to end.

Luckily for me tho this film doesn't have a long running time because this film has a total running time of only one hour and fifteen minuets and twenty eight seconds. Which is a really shirt running time for this film since you very easily could have made this film at least one hour and forty five minuets long and heck it might have actually helped the films plot / story if you did make this film a little big longer since then you'd be able to tell the plot of this film at a more natural pace which would allow the plot points in this film to come more naturally instead of feeling forced and rushed like they are with the one hour and fifteen minuets and twenty eight second that this film does actually have.

Try as I might here boys and girls I really cannot work out what sub-genre of film that this film is meant be since nothing is scary in the film so it's not a horror film or a thriller film and there's no mystery to solve so it's not a mystery. This film really does have no other genre film other then being in the exploitation genre which simply isn't enough because you very easily could have made this film fit into either one of the categories / genres that I mentioned (with both thriller and crime being the listed genres on IMDB) and it's clear as day that very little effort was put into this films script or / and very little effort was put into making this film actually good or even watchable for that matter but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways

Overall do I really need to say it because I think it's kind of obvious at this point but yeah I really did hate this film. Which is a shame because if this was a s*x comedy then this film could have worked but as it is it just simply doesn't work and now then boys and girls since i've talked about both of the good things that are in this film and as well as the many bad things that are featured / presented to us in this very film in this very review this film gets 1.5 out of 10 from me.

As for where I got the images that I used in this review well boys and girls I got all of the images that I used in this review from both / either Wikipedia or / and Google Images. With my preferred website to use for the images that I used in this review being Google Images since even tho Wikipedia had a shockingly high amount of high quality images from this film Google Images had more of a variety of images.
