Bamboo House Of Dolls
Japanese imperialists to conquer China. There is
for sure that the Emperor and the Japanese
government would have been proud of these soldiers on a mission.
Atrocious and cruel. Strong in the martial arts. Good with sword and guns. Yes
ok, funny dressed, a bit 'strange and sometimes quite demented. But you
can not have it all.
"Bamboo House Of Dolls" is a great
"Women In Prison" made in Hong Kong in 1973 that draws clear inspiration
from the"
Big Doll House "produced by Corman some years before.
Aside from recalling the sad fact of history, that during the Second
World War, Chinese women were for the consumption of Japanese soldiers,
the film by Kuei Chih-Hung
is a long and entertaining B movie that mixes a lot 'of stuff. From
WIP, to the sexploitation, to the naziexploitation to martial arts to
finish even with a small tribute to Russ Meyer. Shabby enough to have
fighting scenes in which fight start with the sun and end with the moon
with a handful of 6 / 7 women that keep in check a large numbers of
soldiers armed to teeth.
How naziexploitation wants,
the villains are (a little ') stupid maniacs, and especially to the
point of abusing prisoners. Among these is a very consensual and
increased bare who moving to the music scared to death of the soldier
"turn." And here's a tribute to Russ Meyer.
The presence of Lo Lieh a big star of Kung-Fu
movies of the '60s and '70s provides the look and "martial arts". And if
the plaintiff brings his Asian art itself can be said, but physically,
the Danish actress Birte Tove driving a small group of prisoners,
some European Red Cross raked in a hospital and in part found in some
Chinese remote country.
They and others are caught in this sordid camp ruled by a series of
ambiguous figures among them, could not miss, a lesbian soldier. All in
mini-dress blue often show the slip does not disdain to remain topless
especially at night.
Aside What the
fulcrum of the plot focuses on the escape of these women. Without
strongly desired by the Chinese resistance, only because in the group there is
the wife of their leader who has confessed to the point of death where
there is a huge treasure (gold bars) stolen from the Japanese and now
very useful to purchase weapons .
Attempts to escape and then are
several film and push toward a version of trash / sexy dementia of "The
Great Escape". The traitor and spy does not fail but the plan is
successful, inter alia, in the most absurd and unbelievable. Hunting
with the fugitive following a revolt which led the field was the
interpreter (Lo Lieh) creates a long series of fights and shootings and
fun until the very bloody bloody and melodramatic finale.
