Catholic high school girls in trouble


It's certainly the best thing about KFM. Well, this and Danger Seekers, feelaround and Cleopatra Shwartz. We can fully live without A Fist Full Of Yen, which goes on way too long, and many others. But Catholic high school girls in trouble was brilliantly done and is still funny in a 70s kindof way today. It's simply a film that has two halfs. One good, one not so good. And certainly a film that came from that time.

Don't read the book, go see the film.

A Fist Full Of Yen, which goes on way too long


It's SUPPOSED to go on longer than the others...it's the MAIN FEATURE of the film.

Imagine there's no heaven.
It's easy if you try.

I actully find Fistfull of Yen to be the greatest part of the film, followed by Catholic High School Girls in Trouble and the rest of the movies by Samuel L. Brokowitz.

Catholic High School Girls in Trouble and Cleopatra Schwartz were making fun of both the adult oriented films and the trailers that ciruclated during the 70's. As well as Disaster films along the lines of "That's Armageddon".

I like the one where the couple is listening to the sex tape thing.
"She may latch onto his honker if she is so inclined." LOFL!

I also like the Death Appeal.

>>> What was the joke/point to "Catholic High School Girls in Trouble?"
>>> Was there an overall satire/parody to it?

An answer was:
>>> (They were) making fun of both the adult oriented films and the trailers
>>> that circulated during the 70's.

True, but even more specifically, trailers for Roger Corman/New World movies like WOMEN IN CAGES, THE BIG DOLL HOUSE, THE BIG BIRD CAGE and CAGED HEAT. I thought for years that CHSGIT was just a -generic-, -action- parody. But I saw these trailers on the HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD DVD and just about fell out of my chair. Some scenes in CHSGIT are copied EXACTLY- The scene with the midget whipping the girl- is near identical to a whipping scene in THE BIG DOLL HOUSE. Those films were meant to be tongue in cheek, but are hard to view now wo. thinking of KFM. AND YES THERE'S MORE!... The NARRATOR of those trailers is THE EXACT SAME GUY!!! RON GANZ... He is named in the HB commentary as the narrator of the New World trailers and his only credit at IMDB is "Kentucky Fried." But he's done dozens of trailers. If you like KFM, you should see HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD an earlier attempt at film parody with a -bit- more of a plot.

reply

Actually, I was thinking "CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS IN TROUBLE" was a spoof more along the lines of trailers like Russ Meyer's "SUPERVIXENS" and "BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE ULTRAVIXENS". (Virtually the same trailer)

hollywood boulevard dvd where can i find it? Kentucky fried movie the funniest movie i ever seen on vhs drmark7!

reply

I thought the narrator for Catholic High School Girls in trouble was Shadoe Stevens. Doesn't he narrate all of those trailers for the movie?

reply

It's a spoof of 1970's porn movies.

reply

"It's a spoof of 1970's porn movies." No, it's a spoof of '70s R-rated movies.

reply

They're kinda the same.

reply

Kind of, but I think the real-life Samuel L. Bronkowitz would be Samuel Arkoff as much as anybody.

reply

OK, well I guess Samuel Arkoff never produced a porn (as far as I know), but maybe they were counting on him doing so and wanted to be the first ones to lampoon it. They bring up Marilyn Chambers at one point which leads me to believe...

reply

I guess he was building a fighting force

badgers? badgers!? WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' BADGERS!!!

In this case, I think you mean a fu(king force (one of extra ordinary magnitude, of course)

reply

[deleted]

yeah that part was funny.

reply

Hey, gratuitous female nudity was the basis for a lot of films in the '70's, thank God! ;) I love this movie, and 'Amazon Women on the Moon!' You also have to understand, when I rode the trains in NYC for High School, there was a Catholic Girls High School just up the tracks from us,and they were always on the train when we got on in the afternoon. So, we got to live and see the humor in it everyday!

A Fistful of Yen is brilliant, especially when the lady scientist points out the bugs in the room, finally ending with her pointing to a guy in the corner with a boom mike, and the main character pulling down the boxing ring mike.LOL
It's absolute genius! That guy turned up later as Dirty Harry's partner in "The Dead Pool".

reply

The best parts of Fist Full of Yen is when he's fighting the big guy near the end and he's having trouble but manages to knock the big guy over and stomps on his neck in slowmotion (with neckbreaking sound), but then he gets back up and in slow motion with the audio turned off he mouths the words "What the *beep* 2nd is the beginning where dr. kron brings in a prisoner chops off his head and yells "Take take him to be tortured." And of course the funniest is the entire Wizard of Oz ending. BUT SERIOUSLY GUYS! the funniest part of the entire kentucky fried movie is the last sketch. It is the weirdest, funniest most original sketch ever filmed by a couple of guys, and a girl, with a camera. If you ever have or ever will make it with a girl while the tv happens to be on then you will know what I am talking about. But this is the kind of movie where each time you watch it you notice something different. This is because you tend to miss a lot the first time through because you and your friend's laughter is too loud. See this with some friends.

reply

I love the things he throws at the bad guy during Fistful of Yen, including a Chevy Big Block V-8 (I think)!

reply

That was definetely not a Big Block Chevy engine !!!
Ever seen one? At over 500 lbs., they’re about as big as a 20 gallon air tank !!!
No one on earth could sling one around in such a manner.

It most likely was a very small transmission.

reply

You are correct, sir! I saw the clip of the fight on 'youtube', and it was a transmission!

You were probably alot younger when you first saw the movie and perceived them as massive.
Now, with breast enhancements commonplace, it's not uncommon to see mountainous mammaries.

reply

That is an excellent point. Our perspective has been changed by advancements in plastic surgery.

Still an awesome pair of breasts.

Thanks for the link! Ah, mammaries. Um, I mean memories.





I asked the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

You're welcome. Gotta love that Uschi!

Came to this thread just to specifically talk about Uschi Digard's big Swedish milkers

reply

One question I've always had about the shower scene with Uschi(Ursula) Digard, when her breasts are bouncing off the shower glass with the guy is standing behind her, what are they doing exactly?
Can you really have sex in that position?

reply

Maybe you can't, but I bet Uschi could.

But how can the guy's thing reach her thang, if they are both standing straight up?

Uhh, you want a diagram? Very careful positioning.

Diagram? Well, if you can please.

Well, look up the guy in that scene - Michael Kearns - and you'll see that (a) he was used to that position and (b) he was REALLY acting... ;)

reply

Sorry Chum, Thats a matter of opinion. This movie rocks all the way through and it may be yours and others favorite part but far from it if you read through these posts. It is an excellent segment though especially the boobs in the shower sounding like balloons being rubbed real hard. The pie to the horses butt and John Landis "showing" his nuts. This movie is awesome!.

reply

Do you suppose he still gets people walking up to him and saying "Show me yer nuts?"
