I wont comment on the movie in terms of story-line or acting, we all know this wasn't an attempt by anyone to garner academy interests. What should be pointed out this film could easily have a PG-rating and that's ONLY due to the obvious advertised (titled) subject matter. There is NO nudity whatsoever in this video. This video even has the HORRIBLE bad taste to trivialize and marginalize breast cancer- YES it really does. Unforgivable.The irony here is that the video is full of mostly erstwhile porn stars who work in a strip club- without ANY stripping! There are only two featured "actresses" who appear to be under the age of 35, the rest are OLD!! If you like to see 60-something women try to strut their stuff then this video is for you. At least the producers had the good-taste to not show these washed up porno hags naked and for that alone I give it one star.

Well, I suppose the good news concerning William Winckler's 2001 opus, "The Double-D Avenger," is that it manages to unite three of Russ Meyer's mammarian marvels--Kitten Natividad, Haji and Raven de la Croix--in one picture. (I can only assume that Lorna Maitland, Tura Satana and Babette Bardot were busy the week they shot this thing...or else managed to see a copy of the script in advance!) The bad news, though (and there's plenty of it), is that this film--if it can even be called that, having been shot straight to video--is a complete misfire, a total abortion, an out-and-out atrocity, an absolute abomination, and truly one of the worst pictures that I have ever seen. Look no further for the lamest superhero movie ever made! The plot here, such as it is, deals with Kitten gaining superpowers after fellating the rare cockazilla plant in South America to cure her breast cancer (oy), and later battling a trio of megalunged bikini dancers back in L.A. Too bad that every lame boob joke trotted out falls completely (you should pardon the expression) flat, that there is ZERO actual nudity in the film at all (other than some old photos of Kitten in her heyday), and that some shaving cream and a papier-mache boulder are the sum total of the special FX. The Meyer gals here are a bit long in the tooth/saggy in the chest, to put it kindly, although Sheri Dawn Thomas, as bikini girl Ooga Boobies (!), does manage to, uh, stand out nicely. So why have I given this juvenile, unfunny, failed embarrassment of a movie 2 stars instead of 1? To be succinct: Joe Bob Briggs. His voice-over commentary in the special features of the DVD I just watched is absolutely hilarious, especially when he pulls out around 100 synonyms for the word "breast" from the 1,000+ on his Web site's "Canonical Hooters List." The man is a national treasure, and he manages to upgrade this skeet of a disc to coaster status!

Old Russ Meyer staples Kitten Natavidad, Haji and Raven De La Croix star in this tale of a huge meloned granny who gains super-powers while looking for a cure for her breast cancer. And of course a cameo by Forrest J. Ackerman. Confession time, I bought this only on the merits of Joe Bob Briggs doing the commentary. And let me tell you that it's possibly the best, most informative, funniest Joe Bob commentary I have ever heard (He's done 7 thus far: "I Spit on your Grave", "Jesse James meet Frakenstein's Daughter", "Blood Shack", "Samurai Cop", "Hollywood Strangler meets the Skidrow Slasher", "Hell High", and this movie, with at least 2 more on the way "Hell's Angels '69" and "Warlock Moon"). Oh yeah, back to the movie..well let's leave it at the fact that alcohol is not just suggested to enjoy this film, it's required. You've NEVER heard such horrid puns in your life. I'll end this review on some pleading. Miss Sheri Dawn Thomas please PLEASE star in another movie soon PLEASE. Ok pleading over, umm..see ya.PS: the German Cicken dance killed me for some reasonDVD Extras: Joe Bob Briggs commentary!!!; Making of; Theatrical Trailer and cable spot;and Photo gallery

First off, I didn't know what to expect when I started the video.Anytime someone brings back a cult type movie genre and adapts it into the present, something gets inexplicably lost in the translation.That's not the case here. This movie just starts off on the right track. It's part familiar territory but manages to take it over the top as well. Crockzilla scene anyone? That has to be seen, and just try and keep a straight face. This movie takes some of the old fun cult movie classics and manages to blend it seamlessly into a modern production. It's good to see someone is filling the need in this market. Very well done.
