Dr. Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs (1966)
Italy
aka Spie vengono dal semifreddo, Dr. Goldfoot and the 'S' Bombs, The Spy Came from the Semi-Cold
Director: Mario Bava
Starring: Vincent Price, Fabian, Franco Franchi, Ciccio Ingrassia
What happens when legendary Italian director Mario Bava gets his big US break helming a sequel to a weird, not-so-successful-in-the-US Vincent Price sex comedy? Another realm Bava pioneered we suppose - the one of shit hot foreign directosr being sucked into the US film industry (Girlbombs was spec'd and financed by AIP although it was shot in Italy) only to be attached to some craven sequel or remake - a cycle thats practically de riguer these days. Nonetheless, this film was wiped off the map for being too weird by studio standards....and although many consider it to be Bava's 'worst' film, we beg to differ.....it would seem there is a lot of subversion going on here that made people a little nervous.......lots of Generals being assassinated so Price can ultimately wage WWIII all wedged and shoe-horned in between a wacky euro-sex farce....yea, you gotta see it!
