I recently had the pleasure of viewing this lost classic in glorious 3-D at a midnight movie showing, not knowing what to expect but certainly not coming out disappointed. I do believe that somewhere in this badly shot, acted, and mic'd film there was a plot, but that's very secondary here. A film like "Wildcat Women" (aka "Black Lolita") these days is merely an excuse to have a good laugh at something so incredibly bad it's damn good. Highlights include: hilarious dialogue (when it's audible), lots of gratuitous nudity (some good, some unpleasant), outrageously bad "car chase" scenes, and 3-D effects so bad that the theatre was in awe at how good a piece of inanimate shrubbery looked in three dimension, truly a highlight special effects moment. The film does drag a bit in the middle, but a hilariously inept shootout finale redeems all. If you're in a town where you have access to films like this, be sure and check your midnight movie listings for this little gem. If a bad movie is your idea of a good time, you will not be disappointed!
