... View More"Sex Kittens Go To College" is a terrible film...with lousy writing, dumb acting and not much going for it. However, at least it isn't trying to be a good film and in fact it is trying very hard to be a stupid and terrible movie!When the film begins, some college decides to hire the perfect professor and they use their computer to tell them the choice. It suggests Dr. West (Mamie Van Doren)--a woman with 15 degrees and with an IQ of nearly 300*! So, without even meeting her, they offer West a position at the school and are shocked when she shows because she's one hot lady...and later they discover she's a stripper! As for Dr. West, she mostly spouts a lot of pseudo- intellectual nonsense which is to supposedly indicate she's a super- genius. On hand throughout the film are a brain-dead jock with some sexual hangups, a group of gangsters, a smart chimp dressed like a student (perhaps Bonzo's cousin), a horny and somewhat dim French student (Bridget Bardot's real life sister) and a LOT of really bad acting!This movie is much like the later Beach movies (such as "Beach Blanket Bingo")--with very broad acting and writing. It's clearly designed for younger folks who frequented drive-in theaters-- undemanding and dopey. The overall effort is a bit painful to watch and the film is amazingly stupid and just plain bad. Even a guest performance by Conway Twitty (as himself) isn't enough to save this one!*If you care, IQ scores back in the day were VERY unreliable and lacked real meaning with the old Stanford-Binet. The IQ scores obtained today using the much more widely accepted Wechsler tests top off at about 150...so if you meet anyone claiming to have a much higher score is likely lying, took some online test (that is meaningless) or was tested decades ago.
... View MoreHey any movie with a young Tuesday Weld is watchable. Yeah this movie is very campy but it has some good scenes as far as I am concerned. There are several pretty well known actors in this movie. Mamie Van Doran, Tuesday Weld, Jackie Coogan (Uncle Fester), Martin Milner, Louis Nye, and John Carradine. Conway Twitty even has a part and sings. How a stripper gets 13 degrees is beyond me but I guess with an IQ of 268 anything could happen especially in a movie!! Bridget Bardot's sister even has a role here as an exchange student. I was actually surprised by Van Doran's acting ability, it was not top notch but a lot better than I expected. I thought she mostly be just covered T & A but not so.
... View MoreThis movie has it all. There's Mamie van Doren as a super-intelligent professor/tassel-tosser. There's her pet monkey that plays the piano and the drums. There's a robot. There are gangsters. There's a ten-minute dream sequence of topless strippers. There's a high-speed firetruck driving scene with lots of nice 50s cars. There's Mamie making an introduction to her new students by shooting two revolvers all over the lecture room. Mamie shooting at the camera with a fire extinguisher. Conway Twitty singing rock'n'roll. Vampira making an appearance as a shaggy lab assistant. Brigitte's sister Mijanou Bardot sweet-talking as a French exchange student. What more could you possibly want? 103 minutes (uncut), never a dull moment. This is entertainment. If you are looking for something clever, you don't pick a movie named "Sex kittens go to college" anyway.
... View MoreIt's really sad that there is only one comment on this fun classic in six years. Written and directed by Albert Zugsmith who worked with Orson Welles on one of his greatest films Touch of Evil, Sex Kittens Go To College is a great Psychotronic film that really should be out on DVD hopefully with a Joe Bob Briggs commentary. The cast is nothing short of amazing! Mamie Van Doren is a "genius" with 13 degrees and a body that drives men wild and women to fume with jealousy. Tuesday Weld is a bit young for college at 17 but looks fantastic. Mijanou Bardot is more like the right age at 21 and her frerrranch accent like the great one done by John Cleese in Holy Grail can't help but make you laugh. There's John Carradine doing the Charleston with Mamie. The great horror movie host Vampira (who dated James Dean and at 39 isn't the hag the other reviewer says she is)is Louis Nye's lab assistant taking care of Thinko the robot a computer (!) that is a big metal robot with a lot of phony machines all around him. Hopefully if they put this on DVD they'll get the European cut which includes four strippers who do their "acts" for Thinko and Voltaire the chimp who's dressed like a beatnik most of the time. The strippers get down to some pretty skimpy panties (one is a thong so young people who think those were invented in the nineties are wrong)and pasties on their nipples. This was really hot stuff in 1960. Today it would get a PG on ABC family channel. MST3K did a great job with one of Mamie's other classics Girl's Town but unfortunately never got to do this film. Here's hoping if the show ever comes back or Joe Bob gets a shot at it this is the film they do. Like Plan Nine From Outer Space this is a classic!
