Secret of the Red Orchid (1962) a.k.a Das Rätsel der Roten Orchidee


































  Several wealthy Britons are being blackmailed all over Great Britain and two rival Chicago gangs are in the eye of the police. The gangs leave no trace behind them and so the difficult task is left to Scotland Yard's and F.B.I's finest, Inspector Weston and Captain Allerman...
  In yet another Edgar Wallace story, Helmut Ashley (a director known for his T.V work) does his best and provides a stunning result that can satisfy even the most demanding eye. Even though the story is not top-notch material, photography and directing give it a little push to stand on its own. Definitely not the best Wallace-based film but sure one you can easily enjoy.
  Adrian Hoven and Christopher Lee are the two investigators who are set out to find the extortioners and naturally Lee's appearance in the film guarantees quality acting. Klaus Kinski is once again morbidly entertaining with his unearthly look and adds up to Lee's figure and Marisa Mell takes it away with her stunning looks. Eddi Arent is the light-hearted one of the group and is absolutely humorous!
Must watch this :  invite the sophisticated girl from last night once again for another round of a sophisticated bohemian film noir night. Ask her to bring red wine with her. If she does, then prepare for a night of sophisticated seduction. If not, just enjoy the film anyway!

I would tap you if you weren't so skinny
Am I the only one around here who thinks we should bring strippers?
Yes! Because a coat brings swift agility for a night thief!

The Mermaids of Tiburon (1962)


































  A diver is looking for underwater ruins with hopes of finding forgotten treasures. While on his endeavors, he is approached by a group of mermaids who help him find what he wants. Not sure to believe his eyes or not, he just dives in...
  John Lamb and the open sea are two thing that go together, if one cares to look at his work. And so is tastefully handed nudity. Combine these two and this is what comes out! An entertaining piece that combines beautiful underwater scenes with just the right drops of fantasy and voyeurism to make one have a good time. There is a deeper meaning here. You only need a mind as open as the sea to get it!
  George Rowe, Diane Webber and Gaby Martone are the main roles here with the first one being the lucky scientist and the other two playing the parts of Queen Mermaid and main Mermaid respectively. And what a fine job do they mermaids do! All of them! Prancing and swimming and teasing and confusing our young diver. Makes me wish mermaids were actually true and that they were in fact as they are in this film! Who knows? Maybe they are!
Must watch this : on a awfully hot summer day with a mojito in hand. After the film, run to the beach and look for your mermaid. She will probably be there waiting for you.

I hope I am not too high for what's coming next

Underwater titties? Now I know I am too high!

Ok, what now? Stop messing with my buzz, you evil diver. The lady is trying to say something
