I wonder if TCM Underground will be at all like "Reel Wild Cinema"?

Rob Zombie sampled FPKK! all over the White Zombie album "La Sexisto", so it's cool to have him presenting the movie.

i have never seen this film....but i saw parts of it today on TCM, and it looks very interesting!!

reply

Totally! It is Russ Meyer's greatest piece.

yeah, I love TCM anyway and I'm glad they're expanding their horizons to include classic cult flicks like FPKK. The other week they showed some Japanese monster movies including one which Quentin Tarantino ripped a scene from (although that shouldnt be a shock). What sucks is that these movies are on so late at night here on the East Coast.

I just want to agree that I'm thrilled that TCM is showing this stuff.

They're showing Kwaidan in a couple of nights...I'm stoked.

TCM is by far the best reason I can think of to buy a DVR/Tivo system. That and the Daily Show.

I agree. The cinematography (alone) was stark, beautiful and perfectly rendered on screen. Tura had a screen presence that was bar none. I think this is one of those films that people and critics should give another chance to. It's that good. Grab it with leather gloves if you can. It's hot!

reply

To the poster that asked about the Zombie song used in the promo, it's "Meet The Creeper".

That was AWESOME !! I can't get this movie out of my mind -- I've watched it 3 times already, stopping only to watch Game 1 of the World Series !!

reply

I was a Faster Pussycat virgin until last night. TCM is awesome and this movie is crazy and amazing. I just LOVE Varla, one of the toughest ladies in film.

God bless TCM for making films like these availible to people who don't have the money to buy expensive Criterion or imported dvds. Thanks to them, I have Faster Pussycat Kill! Kill!, Mudhoney, and Eyes Without A Face, and I did'nt have to order a thing.

TCM is great, they bring us more variety of hard to find movies than any of the big pay cable services like HBO, Showtime etc., etc. and it is part of basic cable (at least it is where I live) the best bargain on TV, Keep up the great work TCM!
