Supervixens (5 Stars)


This is something I never thought would happen. "Supervixens" has always been one of my favourite films – in my top 10 – but I've always cursed the poor quality of the DVD. I've been crying out for a Blu-ray release, but now, bang! I'm holding a 4K release in my hand, painstakingly restored from the original negatives by Severin Films. So far, only five of Russ Meyer's films are available on 4K discs, but I'm expecting others will follow.


It's difficult for me to review the film itself, because I've said it all before, especially in this review. That's what you should read if you want to know more about the film. I apologise for the poor quality screenshots from the DVD. Maybe I should go back and replace the images. I'll consider it, if I have time.


Russ Meyer's films are gloriously inappropriate. Who else would show a naked woman lying in the hay doing a Hitler salute?

Many people don't like Russ Meyer's films because they don't understand them. Others dislike his films because they do understand them and disagree with his messages. Whatever they think, Russ Meyer was a visionary genius. His films will live forever. Hopefully in 4K.

Success Rate:  + 168.0
