When Women Had Tails (1973)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Very Cool!!!

best movie i've ever seen.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Now that it was OK to show brainless erotica on screen, they were allowed to make a movie like "Quando le donne avevano la coda" (called "When Women Had Tails" in English). It portrays several witless cavemen finding an island inhabited by scantily clad babe Filli (Senta Berger). Personally, I can't understand why these dopes wanted to devour her, even if they thought that she was an animal; had I seen her, I immediately would have wanted to have sex with her! Anyway, she gets one of them interested in a certain kind of game. Before you know it, they both run off together, but the other men aren't satisfied and chase them.I should identify that most of the movie consists of scenes in which people club each other askew, asunder, and in other ways. It seems like the sort of movie filmed by a bunch of people getting together for the weekend (possibly for an orgy). But overall, I liked it, if only for the guilty pleasure that it arouses. This is certainly one that you watch to laugh at, nothing serious here. Really fun.

"When Women Had Tails":I'll start with the title to the movie,it sounds like a weird storybook for kids! Then again,I guess they couldn't call it "Chasin' Tail" could they? I was up late one night a few years ago and there it was on TV.I'll never understand why people take movies like this so seriously. yes,compared to mainstream movies and the Oscar winners,this is not just "not" in the same league,it's in a whole other dimension in a warped universe! I'd compare it to a teen-agers first attempt at making his/her own! Still,it's just a silly,fun to laugh at because it's so ridiculous kind of movie.Simple plot,cavemen are lonely,bored,quite stupid (who's there to teach 'em anything?) and getting themselves into one mishap after another. One tries to fly,he crashes. One accidentally gets lit on fire and the smartest of them shouts,"Hey,c-mon! React!!" The burning man finally realizes,fire hurts! Anyhow,the ..ahem..men,discover a lone female with,you guessed it,a tail. They all pursue her,wanting to "play".Naturally only the good looking guy gets the girl. The rest eventually find a whole flock of 'em! They go to the women and party! The guy and his girl (who's tail has gone bye-bye,are now a couple. He bemoans the fact that it was he who has now invented "couples" (instead of what's going on in the background! I like to watch bad movies and this one is. It's just fun to do and as I've said of a few "so bad their amusing" kind of movies. Laugh at the absurdity,when you can't laugh for the right reason. 8 stars for that reason,dumb "caveman" fun". (END)

I saw this movie in Aberdeen,S.D. in the summer of 1974, as the third show in a dusk-to-dawn marathon at the local drive-in. There was a car-full of us, well lubricated with wine and weed, and I thought this was one of the funniest pictures I'd ever seen. We practically peed our pants laughing. Fast forward to 1995. I see "When Women Had Tails" at the local video store and,remembering the hilarity, take it home. I got through, maybe 20 minutes. It sucks really bad. Really, really bad. The actors, the script, it all sucks. They didn't even have the decency to show some nudity (I mean...come on,it's supposed to be a sex comedy).Just goes to show...you were stupid when you were 19. At least I was.

Is it possible for a movie to get any worse than this? There's a bunch of apes wandering about, mumbling b******, acting supposedly silly and we are supposed to laugh? There is no plot here to keep you going in the first place. Even when the women finally show up, there is no sign of improvement; the most expected things happen and by the time the film is over, you might be far asleep. Beware: this is not a trashy cult movie, this is trash -period! I can't believe there's even a sequel to this! 1
