Review of Vixen! (1968) by Donald W — 29 Oct 2014
This movie is Russ Meyer's classic Sexploitation movie. There's no real sex. There never is in a Russ Meyer movie. There are just lots of women with really big boobs. It's set and filmed in British Columbia Canada.
The main character is the wife of a fishing guide at a fishing lodge. He flies in customers who just happen to have wives with big tits. Russ Meyer never bothered to have his movies rated so they have an automatic X rating although it's probably only an R rated movie.
After all the nude scenes he throws in some political commentary. In this movie he makes the main character an obvious racist. Then he gives her brother a black friend for her to call all kinds of outdated racist slurs.
He then makes the last customer an Irish Communist member of the Irish Republican Army. He tries to highjack the fishing guide's airplane to Cuba. Why is never explained and why did he think he could fly a four seat airplane across the United States without being caught when they stopped for gas.
It just gave Russ Meyer a chance to give his opinion of Communism and Racism. It also allows his movies to be shown in places where movies had to have a non-sexual plot to not be labeled as pornography.
