Movie Reviews of A Smell of Honey, a Swallow of Brine / The Brick Dollhouse (Something Weird)
Movie Review: My favourite movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This film is really amazing. It's 60's trash, but it is different from other films of the type and becomes a film in a category of its own. It may sound pretentious to call a movie like this art, but is so orignal it can only be described as such. It's extremely low budget. The filming is crude, the camera is often shaky, and the editing is very poor, scenes jump around and collpase into one another. But all this almost seems to be done on purpose. The music is amazing, light 60's rock that is so repetitive that it puts one in a quasi-hypnotic state and the melodies are beautiful. The film is often silent except for the music which constantly plays in the background. The sreenwriting is of course not written by the book, but you can still find a traditional three act story if you try. The movie instead moves in segments, each having its own theme song and victim. The story is divulged in other reviews, but if you can watch the movie without having the story line revealed to you first I would recommend it. I recommend this movie to any adult who can watch it with an open mind.
Summary of A Smell of Honey, a Swallow of Brine / The Brick Dollhouse (Something Weird)
She's sexy! She's psycho! She's a sadistic little sex kitten gleefully destroying men with A Smell of Honey, a Swallow of Brine! She's Sharon Winters -- played by the delectable Stacey Walker (The Notorious Daughter of Fanny Hill), the Ultimate Tease who gets her kicks by seducing guys, then calling for the cops: "What do you think I am? Some two-dollar hustler?!" She sends one young man to jail, forces another to skip town, and drives one poor slob so crazy that he runs maniacally through the streets before attacking the first woman he sees! But the tables are turned when Sharon zeroes in on a thug who's even sicker than she.... Written and produced by the legendary David F. Friedman (The Defilers), this gritty, gutsy, outrageously un-PC sinema classic is a truly twisted gem from the Golden Age of Sexploitation! Plus: Vivacious Vincene Wallace (co-star of Russ Meyer's Vixen) is Dee, a naive young gal who's come to Hollywood to be a star. Instead, she's jumped by her landlord, hired to headline a "strip auction," and becomes the drugged centerpiece of a lesbian-and-whipped-cream party! As the narrator says, "It's sort of a sickness trying to reach the top. But it's A Sweet Sickness...." Also: Pot-party swingers, high-haired hellcats, gals who love gals, and -- yikes! -- one shot-to-death stripper are all to be found behind the well-built walls of The Brick Dollhouse! It's a torrid and tumultuous triple bill of scintillating Sixties Skinflicks, Friedman style!Drama DVD Video
