Doris Wishman is a really funny woman who puts pop music on scenes of
sex and violence. Nothing outrageous, because we are just one of many,
harmless and trashy episodes of 70’s sexploitation
Doris Wishman from New York was one of the few women who works in the
exploitation world and in adult movies. Her career began with "nudist"
movies including the "sci-fi" "Nude On The Moon" and then continues in
the sexploitation of the sixties and seventies and in some porn movies.
She shot often with pseudonyms and ends her career in the eighties and
then died in 2002 at ninety.
Only for her life Doris Wishman deserves respect and sympathy, even in
the face of much unwatchable films. One of these is "The Amazing
Transplant" who compared to many others movies of the genre tries to
have a guideline.
Mary plays guitar naked in bed is killed by her former boyfriend the
handsome Arthur. And if you think we will reveal something, you are
mistaken because soon the whole town knows that Arthur committed
murder. Mary's mother hire her brother Billy a detective to investigate
the case. So Billy, more maniac than a detective met several victims of
Arthur who remember with various flashbacks the (mis)adventures. Rapes,
consensual sex and more. In these flashbacks we see many naked bodies
squeeze tits and some tangling. But no violence. Because Arthur is
guilty of this violence? Because he was the subject of the '' Amazing
Transplant "of the title and because they put the penis of a psychopath
who kills people who wear gold earrings. What a fuck!
'.
The demonic transplants we have seen and will see in other films, here
reach a demented point. And surely Doris Wishman knew that.
"The Amazing Transplant" absurd enough, and with the usual well-chosen
actresses is one of those movies so bad to do sympathy with a score
that raises the level and a sense of "crime" that basically follows its
own path
society and the dissemination
of information of the time we realize how "Mondo Cane" was surprising
and innovative, and why it has so much influence on the world of cinema.
