Best, worst movie ever made.......2007-03-09
Mystery Science Theater 3000 extravaganza. This is possibly the best, worst movie ever made. From hairy neanderthals with their hot women to the hot guys with their neanderthal women, from the fake rubber lizard on the high priestess arm to the repeated nighttime shots of palm trees, this is a must see with your friends and a bucket of Corona. Right up there with Cannible Women of the Avacodo Jungle of Death and She Devils on Wheels. For a couple hours of laughs and jokes this is the one.
A daughters review.......2006-06-05
I believe my father, Whitey Hart was superb and I am glad tosee I can purchase a copy of it for all his children.
"He Carries The Wing Of The White Bird Of Peace.".......2006-05-15
Despite being a camp classic, this film often drags. The premise is simple: two tribes, Goona and Wongo, inhabit an island. The women of Wongo are beautiful, while the men are ugly (by which I mean average looking), while, predictably, the women of Goona are ugly (really ugly; one of them looks like Divine on a bad day) and the men are handsome. This paves the road for great conflict, but also paves the way for long boring stretches of canoe paddling and stupid subversive plotting.
The film opens with amusing credits done in a cave painting motif, and notes that one of the star Wongo women, Wana, is "Adrienne Bourbeau" (Barbeau) in a very early role. The other Wongo women get monikers like "Omoo" and "Ahtee." The central fixture of Wongo life is worshipping a "dragon god" which is actually a small alligator. (This was filmed at various tourist traps in Florida.) Women go talk to the alligator, and then interpret the alligator's instructions for the tribal leaders in between frolicking in their authentically native sundresses and bikinis.
This film has loads of filler, and manages to get boring at an alarming pace. Also frequently featured is a highly annoying parrot that mostly squawks, but also encourages the women to wrestle each other (with much hair pulling.)
Of course a man from Goona shows up and the Wongo women swoon while the men plan to kill him. The women foil their efforts in one of the least plausible screen moments in history. Trivia buffs please note that as the Goona man makes his escape (by canoe) the background music is the exact same music as used during the "resurrection of the dead" scene in Ed Wood's infamous "Plan Nine From Outer Space!" This is a welcome break from the rest of the soundtrack, which is highly bassoon intensive.
I would have given this film two stars, but there is one scene that earns it another: the "sacrifice dance" scene, which features the Wongo women writhing about led by a Queen in an alligator headdress. I have not laughed quite so hard in a while.
As the film winds down we see a woman wrestling a small alligator for what seems like an hour, followed by a call-and-response sacrifice ceremony reminiscent of the loyalty vows in "The Wild, Wild World of Batwoman." This leads ultimately to a unique fight scene featuring men with clubs against women with spears against an alligator. (The alligator wins.)
Of course everyone knows how this is going to work out: the ugly men and women pair up, and the attractive men and women pair up. This leads to much rejoicing, mostly from the audience, because their 72-minute nightmare is finally over.
This is fun viewing once for strictly camp value, but most people wont need to see it any more than that.
I'm not wild about these women.......2006-03-09
I think I must have lost my sense of humor, because this movie was just bad. The dance of the women for the dragon god became unendurable, and I was tempted to fast forward through it. The fight between one of the women and a four foot long alligator was too protracted to have any tension. I did think the fact that the alligator started to swim after release was interesting.
There are supposedly three groups of people in this movie. There are the people of Goona, where the men are handsome and the women are homely. There are the people of Wongo where the women are beautiful and the men are ugly. Lastly, there are the ape men who may be invading Goona.
After the hot women of Wongo anger their god, their men send the women off to the temple of the dragon god, which is a large alligator. The women soon encounter the handsome men of Goona, who have been sent weaponless into the woods as part of a trial, and being the wild women that they are, they capture all the men to be their personal playthings. In the meantime, the men of Wongo appear to have disappeared, perhaps done away with by the ape men.
The absolute worst part of this movie is the predictable ending, which I will not reveal in any detail in the event you decide to watch this turkey.
This movie has it all; bad acting, bad plot, bad dialog, and bad props. I thought I saw colorful shorts under the loin cloth of one of the men. The women appeared to be wearing swim suits under their outfits, or perhaps tights. I did enjoy the blue hair of one of the male leaders of Wongo. The leader anticipated a trend.
I thought this movie might serve as fodder for bad jokes. However, either I was uninspired or this movie is just too insipid to be joke material. In any case, this movie fails to take off in any meaningful way, so I recommend you avoid this movie for something with more quality, like "Blood Tide." Good luck!
Walla-Walla-Bing-Bang!..........2005-08-04
I love this movie! Yes, it's stooopid. However, by watching this tale unfold, we know the makers of this film were well aware of it's ineptitude! It's all for fun. Story?? Well, the men of Wongo are goons, while the women are beautiful. The men of nearby Goona are surfer-dude beach-types, and the women are "ugly" (which means they're fairly normal looking). Wongo refuses to help Goona to defeat an army of apemen (guys with white paint on their faces). Events occur which force the Wongans to seek out the Goonans, which gets the "ugly" guys 'n' gals together! The women of Wongo strike out on their own, capturing the Goonan men by surprise, and a good time is had by all! Watch for the annoying parrot, the 3' alligator attack, and the Wongo-babes' dance of doom! WWOW Belongs on every DVD shelf, if for no other reason than to make other schlock-addicts drool...

Description
Savage Tribes, Savage Women! Look out boys, the Ulama are loose! Yup, "the legendary White Sirens of Africa" -- a tribe of Fifties-era glamour girls who look like strippers in animal skins -- capture three male explorers who foolishly invade their secret plateau. Seeking a suitable husband, the Queen makes the guys fight the toughest gal amongst them: "Fire God take weak men! Queen take strong man!" But the other women object -- "She no burn nice men! We get husbands too!" -- and a tribal catfight quickly erupts. A mad mix of stock footage and cheesecake, Bowanga Bowanga is an utterly hilarious jungle-style Battle of the Sexes! And: On a tropical island 10,000 years ago, Nature plays a practical joke. The village of Wongo contains women who are all cover-girl gorgeous while the men are ugly "brutes." Miles away, the men of Goona are handsome though the Goona women are... well, downright scary. But when an impending invasion of Ape Men causes the tribes to meet, The Wild Women of Wongo go gaga over the Goona guys, get tough, and force the men into marriage at the Temple of the Dragon God. A screwball cult classic shot at Florida's Coral Castle in "Passionate Pathecolor!" Plus: A captive young lady is about to become a Virgin Sacrifice unless a big-game hunter can get to her first in this colorful jungle epic "actually filmed in Guatemala with Vicuni Savages" and featuring some surprising-for its-time nudity! Bring a loincloth. Warning: This program contains mild nudity, bad choreography, and sexy women speaking gibberish! Over 3-1/2 Hours of Jungles & Jiggles!

a little sweet and a little sour.......2005-02-04
the good thing about this movie, is that its so stupid that it really deserves to be on your cult collection..if youre looking for talent forget it... nudity??? yes its has a little on the movie virgin sacrifice...i got depressed seeing the short-film on the extras...why?????? let me tell you about this perverted exploitation underground sketch...
its a short film done in the 1920's were for sure,,nudity on film was totally underground.....on this short film,,you see a lot of black woman topless as well as the main female character which is white....the white girl didn't look exploited in fact she looked like she enyoyed being naked....on the other hand,,the black females looked totally exploited...( you can tell it in their faces)...its like they didn't want to be there but i guess they did it for the money ( for the little money)its sad to see this on film ,,,, but hey,,, things change in time....its a good film to have on your collection because of this short-film jewel......
