Six Swedish Girls in a Boarding School (1979) ** (out of 4)Erwin C. Dietrich both wrote and directed this sexploitation film under different names but there's no mistaken his work. The film takes place at a Swedish boarding school where some perfect looking young ladies start to get curious about sex.This film's original title was SECHS SCHWEDINNEN IM PENSIONAT but it also went under a variety of other titles including SIX SWEDES ON CAMPUS and UNTAMED SEX. No matter what you call the film there's no question that it's pretty much lacking in any sort of story but I guess that was to be expected as people certainly weren't coming to pictures like this for some sort of Ingmar Bergman experience.What Dietrich was always able to deliver was low-budget movies without much plot and more times than not the title itself told you what you were in for. Whereas his films lacked any sort of plot, they more than made up for it with non-stop nudity and plenty of beautiful women. Usually in American sexploitation films there was always that one ugly friend or bland girl but that's not the case here as Dietrich gives us all perfect "10" girls.The most known name in the group is Brigitte Lahaie who is obviously hard to miss with her beauty. You've also got Jess Franco regular Eric Falk in a small role. Obviously there's only one reason to watch a movie like this and that's for the ladies, the nudity and the sexuality. At 90-minutes the film does get rather boring very quickly but there's still plenty of eye candy that helps make it stand apart.

Hearing from a friend about a big sub-genre in the 60's-70's of German cinema called Sex Comedy,I decided to search around for a suitable title,that would give me the chance to see the sub-genre that mixed the naughty with the weird and funny.The plot:Getting sent to a boarding school to be properly taught,a group of girls start to tire of their PE teacher and headmistress always telling them what to do.Keen on shaking the school's foundation permanently up,the girls start to explore and meet the residents of the near by town,who help them to get ideas on how to make the school time table much more interesting
View on the film:Seeing that the movie had a 90 minute running time,I began to fear that the film might run out of steam in the first 30 minutes,and end up becoming a dull,plodding affair.Thankfully,writer/director Erwin C. Dietrich evenly spreads enough quirky,humorous moments that allow the movie to move at an enjoyably pleasant pace.Openly celebrating the movie's ridiculousness right from the start, (from only a few of the girls being Swedish,to all of the Germen men being dubbed by guys with strong British accents!) Dietrich jumps headfirst into terrific silliness by making the girls out of school trips be ones where they create a bicycle that is defiantly not built for two,and have fun messing around with a pepping tom!.Along with showing the beautiful women (who give great,naturally cheerful performances) in the film, (led by a stunning Brigitte Lahaie) at their absolute best,Dietrich also shows an unexpected Gothic side to his directing,with a scene of some girls playing around with a pepping tom,having a suggested rough edge to it,and also filling the soundtrack with lonely bird sounds which help to develop a feeling the due to how much fun they are having,this is a school that none of the girls want to leave.

The various titles that this film has been given crack me up! Six Swedes On Campus? Well, no Swedes here, but they're on campus. Erwin Dietrich scores again with this sexy and fantasy-filled take on Girls School antics. Brigitte Lahaie shines, as usual, and the other cast members play their parts with gusto: any excuse to get naked, and they get naked! The libidinous female teacher gives some memorable "health" classes (on exploring their own bodies, etc.), pillow-fights in the dorm, voyeurism, even nude butterfly-catching! The copy I saw was a rental; there were a few harsh edits in the transfer, but I doubt that this film went beyond softcore. Definitely worth seeing, especially for those fans of wall-to-wall nudity and cheesy voice-overs.

I watched this movie expecting to get the same old erotic movie. Boy, was I surprised when I watched this movie. You get to see female nudity from head to toe and male nudity. Girls are playing with themselves while the teacher gets hot herself. There is also lesbian scenes with good description and sex scenes tied in with some of the best comedy since, Benny Hill. If this movie does not turn your buttons you must be dead in certain parts of your anatomy. Don't miss the butterfly catching scene. I gave this movie a 10 because it steams adult erotic with good old fashioned humor. Rent this movie and than buy it because it is one of a kind.
