Decent Exploitation Movie

Mama's Dirty Girls (1974) ** (out of 4) Mildly entertaining exploitation film has Gloria Grahame playing Mama, a single mother who with the help of her sexy daughters marries rich men and then kills them. The gang sets up shop in a small town where mama finds a hotel owner with some cash but one of the daughter's falls for a local cop.MAMA'S DIRTY GIRLS features a great title and a great poster and, to be honest, that's all you needed back in the day to get some people to view your low-budget movie. Director John Hayes put his footprint all over 70s exploitation and while this film isn't a classic it's at least entertaining enough to make it worth watching if you enjoy such trash.The biggest problem with this film is that it has a very weak screenplay that's pretty much one-note from the start to the finish. The film opens up with an extremely good sequence as we see mama and her girls take care of a man who finally breaks down and goes after one of the daughters. I thought this sequence was well-directed and crossed the line into horror territory but sadly nothing that follows is near as good. There are way too many stretches where not much is happening and after a while the film just begins to drag.With that said, it is fun seeing someone like Grahame eating up this exploitation role. By this time there were countless movies out there where former stars, now up in age, turned to playing bad people and the actress does a good job with it. The supporting performances are decent for the most part but the main thing is that the ladies get naked. After all, this is an exploitation movie.

Pure Grind-House

Had I been 16 back when this film was originally released the very first scene with the bikini clad pool girl who rubs lotion all over her hot body, would have been worth the price of admission.

It's pure grind-house. Dumb plot, but lots of hot chicks and an abundance of violence.

Wasnt Gloria Grahame a real actress? By the time this movie was made she had had so much plastic work done to her face, her upper lip stopped moving do to nerve damage.

The dialog is ridiculous, the plot absurd and the direction is amateurish. The basic plot seems to be mama has three young kids and she hitches up with wealthy-ish dudes only to take their moohlah when she kills them. The daughters are in on the scam.

It will never win an award but it's one of the better grind-house movies with a non-horror plot.
