Cat People (1982)

Title: Cat People
Released: 1982
Genre: Drama / Horror / Fantasy
Runtime: 118 min
Country: USA
Language: English

Tagline: An Erotic Fantasy For The Animal In Us All.

Plot Summary: The Cat People originated way back in time, when humans sacrificed their women to Leopards, who mated with them. Cat People look similar to humans, but must mate with other Cat People. We follow brother and sister - who seem to be the only ones of their kind left...

Comments: A highly charged, visual, erotic feast that transcends the horror genre. With "Cat People," Nastassja Kinski indelibly seared her erotic image into the American male psyche. There is no American actress today who would dare take her role in this film. "Cat People" is a landmark film that has never been equaled. Paul Schrader, the director, made this movie his own, turning the original movie upside down. That effort has withstood the test of time that is nearing twenty years and still counting. The film has a visual style that is stunning. Without Nastassja, this film fails. Beginning with a demure, vulnerable character in Irena Gallier, Nastassja transforms herself into a smoldering film presence that spontaneously erupts and torches the screen. With the lone exception of Ruby Dee, none of the supporting cast is capable of withstanding Nastassja's considerable presence, meaning that their character portrayals are quickly forgotten - an effect that separates her from most actresses and is an all too real hazard for most actors appearing in her films. Notorious? Infamous? However one puts it, Nastassja redefined eroticism on screen with not one of today's actresses ever coming close. It is a legendary performance that knows no peer within its genre.

Boarding School (1978)

Title: Boarding School
... aka Passion Flower Hotel (1978)
... aka Preppy School Girls (1978)
... aka Virgin Campus (1978)
Released: 1978
Genre: Comedy
Runtime: 98 min
Country: Germany
Language: German

Plot Summary: This film tells the story about a group of girls at an exclusive German girls boarding school. Across the lake is an exclusive boys boarding school.

Comments: Young gorgeous inexperienced actors making a competent sex comedy. This film was apparently made the same year as "Debbie Does Dallas" with highly similar plot lines. School girls form a "company" offering sexual services. Only in this film the girls charge money, not because they need it, but they believe that they should be compensated for their "sacrifice", even though they were the ones itching to lose their virginity. They offer their "services" to the boys school across the bridge, who promptly form a "company" of clients. Through a series of mishaps, no one seems to get laid.
This film starts off rather promisingly with the camera focused on a pair of breasts on par with Shannon Elizabeths (not quite though, these girls were real teenagers and plastic surgery was less common then). The girls appear in various states of undress and do a shower scene together. But since apparently they were under age (Fabiana Udenio was fourteen, Natassia Kinski seventeen). There clothes stay on during the sexual encounters.
I must admit that this film grows on you with repeated viewings and with time--I dont think this film could be made today with the strict child pornography laws in the U.S.
If you want to see some gorgeous girls in their flowering womanhood, this one is one of the tops--despite a weak plot.
