Review of Supervixens (1975) by Private U — 03 Jul 2007
Looks like it's time for bust lust with Russ! This is a delightful romp, a feel-good comedy that features one of the most brutal slasher scenes in cinematic history. Hitchcock expressed admiration for the scene in which Charles Napier, embarassed by his impotence with Shari Eubank, stabs her about fifty times into a bloody mess in the bathtub.
How many lives Viagra might have saved had it come on the market earlier! Stupid lazy scientists! Napier later got his just desserts when he was disembowelled by Hannibal Lecter in Silence of the Lambs.
Anyway, lots of entertaining scenes, lots of the trademark big bazooms, not quite as amazingly perfect as Meyer's two masterpieces but for me this is in a solid third place in his ouevre. Special mention should be made of Shari Eubank, who plays two equal and opposite parts equally well, the bitchy Angel and the sweet Vixen.
