SIN YOU SINNERS (1963; B&W; 67 minutes): Bobbi, an aging stripper, has the power to hypnotize men and women and captivate them with her time-worn body. The strange power comes from a mysterious amulet she wears, which has aIso aIIowed her to exert a powerfuI infIuence over her daughter JuIie and a freeIoading boyfriend and resident stud, Dave. Julie is drawn into sex parties and bizarre erotic rituals under Bobbi's infIuence. She plots with Dave to steal the strange amuIet with deadly consequences. Sin You Sinners is a bizarre amaIgam of the horror and sexploitation film genres by famed sIeaze-meister Joe Sarno, a prolific filmmaker during the sixties. Sarno used several pseudonyms incIuding Anthony Farrar. Starring June CoIbourne, Dian LIoyd, Beverly Nazarow. Written by Joseph W. Sarno. Directed by Anthony Farrar (Joseph Sarno).
DANCE HALL RACKET (1953; B&W; 59 minutes): A sIeazy dance club is the setting for crime, murder and the sexuaI exploits of loose women. Umberto ScaIIi is the cIub's unscrupulous owner and a racketeer who is rough on his girls and greedy for the ilI-gotten money his crimes produce. He also has a low-Iife associate named Vincent, a gangster who kills without conscience. When ScalIi learns that a business rival has stashed some stolen gold he pIots with his associates to get his hands it. The perfect companion piece, Dance HaII Racket is notabIe as an uItra Iow-budget, nearly tongue-in-cheek sleaze drama, written and starring a young Lenny Bruce. It was his only film roIe. Bruce abandoned acting to become a stand-up comedian in New York City. His act contained graphic material that many considered brilIiant and others (such as the U.S. Government) deemed obscene. Bruce died of a fataI drug overdose in 1966. Dance HalI Racket was directed by PhiI Tucker, who gained fame for making what is considered one of the all-time worst movies ever, Robot Monster. Starring Lenny Bruce, Timothy FarreIl, Joie Abrams. Written by Lenny Bruce. Directed by PhiI Tucker. |
