Also
known – perhaps more accurately – as Blue
Movie Blackmail, this is the film that UK tabloids tried
to suggest was Stephanie Beacham’s Euro Porn extravaganza
during her period as a star of Dynasty, which
might tell you a lot about what the average newspaper hack in
this country thinks ‘porn’ is.
Having said that, the nude scenes are pretty impressive –
there’s no denying Beacham’s spectacular body, which
is on display rather a lot in this story of drug smuggling, blackmail
and corrupt government agents. The latter appears in the form
of Euro sleaze veteran Ivan Rassimov, who plays a US agent Inspector
Cliff who has infiltrated an escort agency / blackmail ring /
drug smuggling operation (I guess diversification is a good thing),
supposedly to bring it down. But Cliff has his own agenda, and
is soon pitting various criminal gangs (including one led by the
unlikely Patricia Hayes!) against each other, while also carrying
out acts of extortion, cold blooded killings and romping with
escort girl Beacham.
It’s a globe-trotting adventure (mostly taking place in
London, but with scenes shot in Beirut and New York) and is certainly
never boring – director Massimo Dallamano keeps the acting
coming and you’re never far away from gratuitous boobs (and
spectacularly hairy 1970s muff) or gory murder. This is good,
as it means you don’t have to think too hard about the remarkably
convoluted plot, that introduces far too many characters without
really expanding on who they are and jumps all over the place.
Beacham’s
constantly changing hair style is a distraction (I assume she’s
supposed to be wearing a wig at certain points, thought this is
never made clear, and there seems no logic as to which hair style
is on screen at any time), and her character has little to do
apart from take her clothes off and get into trouble when convenient,
but you can hardly complain, given her unquestionable sexiness
– the nude scenes are spectacular, but an early, bizarre
fetish scene of her in a sexy rabbit costume (seriously!) is also
quite striking. Rassimov is his usual reliable self, while Hayes
– complete with dubious accent – is a novel addition
to the cast.
Not one of the best Italian crime movies of the 1970s, or even
one of Dallmano’s finest, Super Bitch is
nonetheless thoroughly entertaining, deliciously sleazy stuff
that should more than satisfy the discerning exploitation enthusiast.
