Great Titles From Something Weird
The two main titles on this DVD are both hilarious, particularly the first, 1965's "Chained Girls". This is not a BDSM feature at all, and neither is it claimed to be. It is, instead, a supposed documentary about the "growing menace" of lesbianism. I find it humourous to think that the filmmakers sincerely believed any of the (mis)information presented in this film. The box compares it to Ed Wood's "Glen Or Glenda", and I can see why. There is no sex in this 1965 feature, and very little nudity. It is incredibly silly, and quite funny to those of us who enjoy bad cinema. Directed by Joseph P. Mawra.

A more erotic film is 1968's "Daughters of Lesbos", this one being made to pander to the tastes of certain men. It is a very nearly plotless tale of an organization "dedicated to the proposition that women are superior beings". As if there was ever any doubt. This one contains much more sex and nudity, but much less unintentional comedy than "Chained Girls". "Daughters of Lesbos" was directed by Peter Woodcock, I swear that is the name given.

Also on the disc are 8 "Sappho Shorts", some from the 1930s, as well as a number of trailers. There is also an "Easter Egg" or two for those who wish to search.

All in all, this is a great disc from Something Weird Video, full of the qualities we've come to expect from this company.
