merklekranz Review of Schoolgirls in Chains

Schoolgirls in Chains (1973)

Mother's boys and a mummified mommy .............

[6/10 · 1 October 2010]

This lurid exploitation film was originally titled "Schoolgirls in Chains", and just to be certain the audience understood they were schoolgirls, one of them is having an affair with her teacher. The movie opens with an unforgettably awful theme song, and the entire soundtrack can only be described as bizarre. Once the momma's boys appear and get down to their abduction business, you realize that this was absolutely intended for the "old men in raincoats crowd". The two sons, who are totally devoted to their mummified mommy, could best be described as Mopey and Dopey. The girls chained in the cellar are "playthings" for these two dimwits, who obviously can barely write their names in the mud with a stick. Good of it's type. - MERK
