I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON EXPANDING AND REVISING SOME OF THE BEST PIECES FROM MOON IN THE GUTTER AT MY OFFICIAL SITE, NOSTALGIA KINKY. THIS NEW PROJECT CAN BE ACCESSED BY CLICKING THE PICTURE BELOW.
One idle evening I found myself at a UMASS film club double-feature of Kubrick's Lolita and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. To my astonishment I was more impressed by the latter. I was quite blown away by Meyer's machine-gun editing style, expecting as I did something much more primitive. It was a beneficial evening in more ways than one, since I won a raffle for a book of free passes that covered much of my moviegoing that summer. Your post brings back fond memories.
I actually screamed out loud when Z-Man revealed how much of a Superwoman he really was. The film is great it's like a transmission from a bizzaro candy colored upside down alternate universe.
This is one of my favorites, I absolutely adore it. You're right that more Russ Meyer needs to be on DVD. Another fave of mine, "Mudhoney", is out in the UK but not in the US.

What is with you, man? It's like you share my video collection. Love this movie.
I love this movie. I watched it again not long ago. Cheers!
Russ! Russ! He's our man! If he can't do it, nobody can!
I LOVE Russ Meyer and this selection. Nice choice. I should really see this again now that it has that DVD.

This is a crazy film and it is incredible that a major Hollywood studio actually bankrolled it! Nice stills, Jeremy.
Thanks everyone for the comments. I think this film is absolutely extraordinary. I wish more of Meyer's films were treated as well on disc.
I dig, man, you're on an ego trip!
