Just perfect...

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The Beast That Killed Women (1965)** (out of 4) The setting is a nudist camp in Miami where the members have a swell time spending their days walking around naked, swimming, square dancing and playing a variety of other sports. All of this happiness quickly turns to terror when a killer gorilla shows up and starts killing people.THE BEAST THAT KILLED WOMEN is probably one of the better known releases from Something Weird Video because it qualifies as one of the worst movies ever made but also one of the most entertaining in a so-bad-it's-good kind of way. While watching this movie the first thing that came into my mind was how much it must have sucked wanting to see nudity back in the day because you would have to submit yourself to these types of movies. The next thing that came into my mind is how thin the entire plot is but this was to be expected because the only real goal here was to show nude bodies and there's no question that we get a lot of that.Again, everything in this movie is pretty awful from the acting to the directing to the plot to the horrible score but in all honesty no one is watching this for "that" stuff. The movie contains non-stop nudity and it's often done is such childish ways that you can't help but laugh. Just check out the first real bits of nudity where the camera pretty much just stays in place while naked people walk in front of it. I guess you can say the director was an equal opportunist nudist because it's woman, man, woman and then man again. There are countless scenes of people just walking in front of the camera and the most hilarious moment comes when there's a towel on top of a wall for some reason and two women must jump in order to try and get it. Oh, then let's not forget that the women sleep on bunk beds and near the end when the gorilla is running loose this gives them a reason to get into the same bed.Speaking of the gorilla, the man-in-a-gorilla suit routine is never scary here and in fact it's going to get more laughs than anything else. I'm not sure what actor was inside the suit but I'm curious as to what drugs were in his system because this is one wild and crazy gorilla. The outfit is obviously fake and they never try to hide this. As you can tell, there are a lot of bad things with this film but at just 60-minutes the film moves rather good and there's no question that there are enough laughs here to keep you entertained as long as you don't take it too serious.

A gorilla (played by some poor slob in a laughably obvious and unconvincing ape suit) goes on the rampage in a nudist camp. Boy, does this delightfully dippy and dreadful doozy possess all the right wrong stuff to qualify as a real four star stinkeroonie: Barry Mahon's flat (non)direction, the plodding pace, the lousy acting from a lame no-name cast, Clelle Mahon's wafer thin script, the cornball stock film library score, the gloriously ridiculous premise, a priceless nude square dancing sequence (!), the choice clunky dialogue (sample line: "He was hairy -- and big!"), the exceptionally poor sound quality, and the static, yet bright and colorful cinematography all ensure that this sixty minute schlocker is an absolute sidesplitting riot from start to finish. Of course, the key reason to watch this clunker is to see such sexy 60's skin-flick regulars as Gigi Darlene, Delores Carlos, Darlene Bennet, June Roberts, and Sandra Sinclair parade about in their birthday suits. A totally gut-busting kitschy hoot and a half.

Some movies just aren't made to impress and to sweep any awards. They are made purely to please a certain audience. And for its certain audience, at its time, this must had been simple a good fun, bad movie, with some nudity to it.It's an sexploitation flick from the '60's but that doesn't mean that it's a very daring or exciting one. Seems that for legal reasons they were not allowed to film people below the waist and when they did they only showed the backside of people. So never any full frontal nudity in this movie, which is strange, since this entire movie is set at a nudist camp.And what a silly nudist camp it is. They are dancing, singing and swimming together and all seem to have a very jolly time. All of the girls are very young and beautiful ones, which is of course not realistic at all, considering what type of people normally attend nudist camps. But beware though of the beast that is lurking in the bushes...no woman is safe from his great strength and extreme cunningness.There is of course very little story to this all and the story that there is, is all real ridicules. It's simply a extremely poorly done movie, with zero production value. Not sure if this was actually a serious attempt to crossover the monster genre with a sexploitation flick. The end result is hard to take serious as one, anyway.It was obviously a very cheap movie. All of the camera-shots are extremely static and mostly consists out of people entering the frame or uttering some lines. Non of the people involved were real actors, at least they did not acted that way. It was simply horrendous. It was also extremely hard to understand what they were saying, which was due to some extreme poor sound quality at times. It was fun though at times to hear the crew talking in the background. An obvious unintentional mistake.But well, you just don't watch a this sort of movie for its innovating, high technical qualities, it's brilliant acting or clever story. You watch it purely to have some fun with and because it's all so bad and extremely silly, you just can't help but to enjoy this movie. It doesn't make it a good movie by any means but it at least makes it a fun one to watch. And luckily it's only just an hour long so you don't feel like you are wasting too much time with it.4/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

Director Barry Mahon, thank you. Exploitive T & A from the mid sixties. A pretty scary time for guests at a Miami Beach nudist colony, as a gorilla runs amok killing anyone in its reach...clothed or butt naked. Bouncy, bouncy. Bouncing boobs and bouncing buns of all shapes and sizes. One complaint is that some of the better looking babes in clothes never take them off. And who really cares that some guy in a gorilla suit is chasing naked chicks around. Typical American Drive-In Theater fare that helps rev up the libido between the popcorn and big orange drink. The director himself is listed among the cast members featuring: Julie Anderson, Sandra Sinclair, Darlene Bennett, Bryon Mabe and Gigi Darlene.
