The cut-throats
This is a western, as the opening credits and the related tune show.
No, sorry, seeing the first scenes I would say it is a rape revenge.
No, I think that it is a war film as the following images show us or
maybe it is a women in prison, a nazisploitation or an erotic film. In
the end: what the hell is it "The cut-throats"?
The only thing that is clear is that it is a great b movie, rambling
enough, badly made, which gives us everything a bad movie should have.
Boobs. Fight. Blood. Ineptitude. And a plot that makes little sense.
We are in the Germany of the Second World War. A Germany that seems so
much United States to see the panorama, where a group of American
soldiers but without symbols or flags, must attack a Nazi Country Club
with a golf course (I swear, so they say in the film, I didn't invent
it) where there are war plans.
The place attacked and conquered without major problems is actually a
brothel that holds an enormous treasure. Thus the girls between
ballets, stripteases and various performances entertain the Americans,
in some cases underlining their loyalty to the Nazi regime. Hidden
instead, a general (or a Nazi officer) with a soldier and above all
with Uschi Digard have a good time. The great Uschi is in effect, the
plus of this 1969’s film and offers us, in addition to the vision
of her legendary boobs, the cult scene: she gets some wine licked from
her body.
For the rest, the battle between soldiers rages, but more than to win the war they think about of hidden money.
A hallucinating mix of things, including shootings, naked bodies and a
lot of music and ballet, so crazy and badly done to reach psychedelic
atmospheres that make this film an interesting chapter for B Movies
lovers.
What does the song and the western-style titles have to do with the
movie honestly escapes me, but in addition to Uschi Digard, certainly
the best known name, "The Cut Throats" stands out for the director John
Hayes who went down in history for other b movies but also for an Oscar
nomination for the screenplay of the short "The Kiss".
