Review of Pervert! (2005) by Rachel T — 25 Apr 2007

Being such a big Russ Meyer fan, when I heard about this movie I really wanted to check it out. I felt that the filmmakers really understood and respected Russ Meyer. Those familiar with Meyer's films will recognize a lot of the same style of shooting and editing, as well as the familiar buxom ladies and outrageous sex comedy.

At the end of the Dvd I watched the "making of" documentary about the director and the production of the movie and seeing that made me appreciate the movie even more because they went through a tough shoot and their intentions I believe were fulfilled successfully.

That intent being, to entertain and make people laugh, all the while paying homage to Meyer. At one point in the middle I wasn't sure if I was going to like the film overall and at that precise moment the film took a very surreal and very hilarious and surprising turn and it was at that point I decided that it had won me over.

Favorite scene: Director Yudis as the "mechanic" comes to collect payment for his services.
