10
Violent Women: Driven to fury by their slimy,
abusive boss, a group of foxy female gold miners ditch
their picks and go for the gold the easy way ? by stealing
it! They snatch a million dollars in gems from a jewelry
store, then pay a quick visit to Leo the Fence (played
with macho brio by flamboyant director, Ted V. Mikels).
When Leo tries to give them bags of heroin instead of
cash for their booty, they drive a spiked heel into his
heart and ride off with the jewels AND the drugs. Desperate
to unload their contraband, they deal the dope to undercover
narcs and get busted. Sent to prison, they fall under
the sadistic thumb of a female warden with a taste for
leather whips and submissive girls. After a few weeks
of this depraved debasement, the girls plot their escape!
Cat fights and cold showers give the hardcore crew of
10 Violent Women plenty of chances to show off their "talents."
The
Corpse Grinders: Human bodies are fed into a
bone crunching meat grinder, mashed into a bloody pulp,
poured into cans and shipped out to market as Lotus Cat
Food. Unsuspecting pet owners are being attacked and killed
by felines driven into blood lust by their newly acquired
taste for human flesh. The corpse-grinding cat food moguls
have been running low on dead bodies and are on the lookout
for fresh meat. Enter Angie, a nubile young nurse whose
cat is acting up after eating out of Lotus cans. Angie
comes to the factory looking for answers and is abruptly
taken to the blood-soaked conveyor belt that feeds the
insatiable grinder. A low budget shocker in the vein of
Blood Feast (1963), The Corpse Grinders (1971) has become
a perennial cult favorite. Eccentric producer, director,
writer and editor, Ted V. Mikels, would revisit the bloody
cat food cannery in his long-awaited sequel, The Corpse
Grinders II (2000).
The
Corpse Grinders II: The giant flesh-mangling
meat grinder in the basement of the Lotus Cat Food Company
is back in business under new management. And this time,
the popular "food for cats who like people"
has drawn the attention of an alien race of intelligent
felines from the planet Ceta. The Cetans' food supply
has been destroyed in their interplanetary war with dog-headed
dinosaurs. With help from the U.S. Government's "men
in black," the cat queen, Felina, negotiates a mega-deal
with the Lotus Company to supply her planet with food.
This sudden increase in orders has the new owners scrambling
for fresh - and not-so-fresh - human flesh to meet the
growing demand. A campy low-budget sequel to 1971's cult
classic gore-fest, The Corpse Grinders, with an interplanetary
sub-plot grafted on, this frightfully funny film features
a cameo appearance by its producer and director, Ted V.
Mikels as a hitch-hiking spacefarer who wants to join
Felina on a voyage back to Ceta.
Bonus
features include a commentary track by
Ted V. Mikels and "Making of Corpse Grinders II"
with Shanti.
Blood
Orgy of the She-Devils: A coven of near-naked
witches are driven into a wild orgiastic killing frenzy
by throbbing native drums. Bound on the blood-splattered
altar, the terrified screams of struggling male captives
go unheard as razor sharp spears plunge into their hearts.
Queen Mara, whose dark power hails from Lucifer himself,
has unleashed her reign of terror, hell-bent on avenging
centuries of witch-burnings. The authorities are baffled
as the brutal homicides multiply. When psychic Professor
Helford and his team of exorcists zero in on Queen Mara's
castle, all the demonic forces of Satan are unleashed
in a final cataclysmic clash of good and evil. Blood Orgy
Of The She-Devils opens with a human sacrifice and builds
relentlessly to a climactic bloodbath. Producer/director
Ted V. Mikels (Corpse Grinders, Doll Squad, Astro-Zombies)
delivers his trademark banquet of beautiful babes topped
off with a sadistic ritual stoning of a witch. Filmed
on location in Mikels' infamous castle home, with flashback
scenes of witch-burnings, torture and executions, this
1972 production features a cameo appearance by the director
as a vicious "witch finder" for the Inquisition.
"Look? and watch!" shrieks fiendish Queen Mara.
"LOOK? AND WATCH!"
The
Doll Squad: An elite team of beautiful special
agents with license to kill ? and kill again! A diabolical
madman threatens the world with a deadly plague virus!
Eamon
O'Reilly and his private army of mercenaries have already
destroyed a manned American spacecraft during lift-off,
just to show they mean business. But what chance does
O'Reilly's army have against a highly trained and beautifully
tanned team of brainy and brutal babes with machine guns?
A
rousing cocktail of bombs and bikinis, topped with a slick
70s score, The Doll Squad (aka Seduce and Destroy) was
produced, directed, written and edited with stylish overkill
by low-budget exploitation mogul, Ted V. Mikels, the man
responsible for The Astro- Zombies (1967), The Corpse
Grinders (1971), Blood Orgy of the She Devils (1974) and
10 Violent Women (1979).
Girl
in Gold Boots: A gorgeous but gullible small-town
girl grabs for dancing glory in the bright lights of glamorous
Hollywood. Lured from her dead-end life by Buzz, a petty
hood with a hot car, a gun, and a sister in the "business,"
pretty young Michele jumps at the chance to live out her
dreams of stardom. As the pair ride to L.A., they're joined
by a hitchhiking drifter who calls himself Critter. A
tense love triangle develops that threatens to unleash
the violent passions smoldering just beneath their hip,
care-free facade. The seedy side of show biz draws the
trio into a dangerous labyrinth of drugs, thugs and tripped-out
junkies, where the only dreams that come true are nightmares.
Girl In Gold Boots is a glitzy, Sixties drama from one
of Hollywood's leading producers of exploitation cinema,
Ted V. Mikels. With a cast of unknowns, a handful of original
rock songs performed at Hollywood's Haunted House club,
and a bevy of bikini-clad go-go dancers, this movie proves
that a gold bikini and a killer body can make you a star.
