Bad Luck Betties, The Review

Reviewed by Zorge  on  8/31/2008

Bad Luck Betties is a very entertaining film from Winkytiki, with a vibe that builds off of his earlier Rebelle Rousers (Kimberly Kane even makes a cameo here as her character from that movie.)

The style has a very rockabilly, b-movie feel, with great effects meticulously pieced together by the director. The outfits and set-ups here work tremendously and make for a really fun vibe. On top of it, the original soundtrack perfectly fits the movie. There's just enough story to follow and keep things intriguing, but it never gets overburdened with details. What is probably more important to the success of the film is keeping up the vibe and the aesthetic feel of the movie and Winkytiki sees his vision through to the end. Thus, there are plenty of non-sequitir interludes that do little more than add to the visual interest of the movie with shots of girls dancing, partying in car rides, looking bad-assed while motorcycling and so forth.

As for the sex, the quality is also good. I'll start at the finish, with one of my favorite girls Pinky Lee. She's playing a girl from a rival clan who is working to get in good with the Betties and help them out. We get a great scene from Pinky, who really looks stunning here in her pink dress. She also has a super cute bra and thong set underneath, which also eventually comes off after a fake photo shoot. Pinky delivers her only anal scene available on DVD, which makes this a must see for fans as she takes it up her backside nicely in spoon, cowgirl and doggy.

Mika Tan gets double teamed by 2 guys playing American soldiers, including double penetration. Though I must admit to being confused at where the plot is going in this scene.

We get to enjoy Bianca Dagger delivering a rough and energetic scene taking on Tommy Pistol, though it may only be Tommy's sad and frustrated imagination, we still get to enjoy the action.

Earlier on, Marie Luv gets it on with Daniel (playing The Fuzz, here) and Paige Richards and Smokin' Mary Jane engage in a wild wrestling match of dark haired pin-up babes.

Extras and such: The second disc features an in depth interview on the making of the film with Winkytiki and Eon McKai, and features plenty of behind the scenes footage, plus a phone interview with Smokin' Mary Jane and more. There's also a photo gallery, and like there was on Man's Ruin there is a set of "historic footage that inspired the movie" which are archival public domain videos that Winkytiki makes fantastic use of and works into the aesthetic of his movies, they're very entertaining in themselves.

There is also a soundtrack of the original music used in the film.

Conclusions: Winkytiki is perhaps the best out there at making films which are equal parts entertaining and hot. There are some very good sex scenes here, which is a feat in itself, but this is a labor of love. Winkytiki put a lot of work and care into this movie to make it a really entertaining feature with a very cool vibe. It's great entertainment, which I highly recommend picking up if you want something that a little different in your video collection.
