motorpsycho
beneath the valley of the ultravixens
i don't think i've seen any others...or if i have, they're lost from my memory.
do you have a meyer top 5?
No, I really don’t but I might should explore his filmography. When I first discovered FPKK I went on a bit of a Russ Meyer binge and watched several of his other films. I remember Mudhoney and Supervixens standing out but it was years ago. By your rankings I’ll watch Beyond the Valley of the Dolls and Vixen soon. I’ll report back after.
sharei don't think vixen is seen as one of his top tier films, but i absolutely love it.
i will defend beyond the valley of the dolls as one of the perfect films of all time until i die. it truly has everything. lesbians. hermaphrodites. nazis. a woman giving head to a .45. the strawberry alarm clock. it has it all.
btw, if you're a criterion subscriber, beyond the valley of the dolls was added to the channel today.
they've also nicely included the dvd extras, including roger ebert's commentary. i'm really looking forward to revising that.
