Awesome!

Fun fact: the 1977 Jess Franco movie wasn’t an official entry in the series originally, instead being an European film starring Thorne as a similar character named ‘Greta’. When released in North America, the rights were purchased by the official Ilsa rights holders, who redubbed the film to rename the main character Ilsa and incorporate it as an official entry.

Enjoy your watch! :)

Dyanne Thorne reprises her role in the second installment of the grindhouse series. Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks is another over-the-top sleazoid gem.

Roger Corman recycles the spaceships and score from Battle Beyond the Stars to create another low-budget space opera. Space Raiders stars the kid from Sylvester Stallone vehicle Over The Top.

Contemporary dino schlock with fun characters. Very entertaining.

Yup, the bulk of Ho’s cinematic output consists of cut-and-paste jobs like this. These movies are kind of an obsession of mine (😉). The man has also made regular genre movies and they’re solid to almost great. Kind of surprising, considering how bad most of his cut-up ones are.

If you’re interested in Filipino movies of the '80s, check out Elwood Perez’ Silip/Daughters of Eve. Be warned though, that one is super rough to watch.

A legit great movie. Great pick for the watch party!

A pastiche ninja movie made by the Ed Wood of Hong Kong, Godfrey Ho.

A super fun exploitation movie with some great characters.
