What you know of Russ Meyer's films is likely limited to that Seinfeld episode in which Jerry and the gang realize that the waitresses in their favorite diner are all... well proportioned, akin, as they say, to a Russ Meyer flick.
Well, that's about all you need to know. Russ Meyer makes rather silly low budget flicks with bad actors and bad actressess who happen to be rather well endowed. But the odd side of a Russ Meyer flick is, aside from the massive amounts of cleavage, the films are relatively pure. There's no swearing in a Meyer flick, and the violence is very tame by todays standards. It's almost good clean viewing.
While most of the Meyer films aren't readily available, Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill, Meyer's most famous (and rather cult-ish) work, is. Probably his best film (I don't really know, I've only seen two) Faster Pussycat, if you put the cleavage aside, is probably one of the best portrayals of strong female characters ever done. Dealing with a rather reckless and dangerous trio of fast-car driving female go-go dancers, Faster Pusseycat tells of their encounter with a stupid young girl, a farm with the stangest redneck family this side of the Clampetts, and the hellraising trio's inevitable downfall. The performances by the female leads are strong. The performance by the kidnapped girl is not. The redneck family is, per usual, a truly disturbing sight.
Motor Psycho is a little less cleavage and more story... but it's a weak story. A man's wife is raped and beaten by a trio of dirt-bike driving psychos, and a woman's husband is killed by them. The two join together, stranded in the desert in a desparate attempt to bring the young punks to justice (or their death... whatever). A lot slower than Faster Pussycat, Motor Psycho is still an engaging watch and can sustain your interest for the 70 minutes it runs.
The two films are packaged together in one laserdisc set, so if you rent one you should get the other, making it worthwhile to do so.
