Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Michael_Elliott Girls for Rent (1974) ** (out of 4) Action flick from drive-in master Adamson about a crime boss (Kent Taylor) who breaks a woman (Georgina Spelvin) out of prison so that she can run his "girls for hire" business. The newly released woman sends a new girl out on a hit where she unknowingly kills a man, which scares her so she takes off running for Mexico. This leaves the boss and another woman (Rosalind Miles) to try and track her down. Considering some of the films Adamson made this one here actually isn't too bad and manages to be fairly well-made. The biggest problem is that it really lacks any good pacing or energy to make its 90-minute running time go by fast enough. There are many times throughout the film where you'll be watching a scene and wonder why you're watching it because it goes no where and in reality it adds nothing to the actual story. I'm going to guess that Adamson needed to expand the running time and this is the reason but no matter what the reason was it ends up hurting the film. The movie is pretty stupid from start to finish but there are enough silly moments to make it worth viewing. One such moment happens during a "high speed" car chase, which includes one of the cars being a Pinto. Another scene has Spelvin raping a retarded man before shooting him in the head. Being exploitation you can expect a fair amount of nudity by lovely young ladies who probably went to Hollywood expecting to become Monroe but instead find themselves being shown nude throughout the drive-ins in America. Spelvin is best known for her lead role in DEVIL IN MISS JONES and she isn't too bad here but then again she's not that good either. I will say she has one of the most non-threatening laughs in the history of bad guys giving disturbing laughs to look creepy. Miles was a pro at various blaxploitation flicks and she's without a question the most interesting thing here. This turned out to be Taylor's final film as he would retire from the business (or just simply got fed up that no one was offering him work except Adamson). GIRLS FROM RENT, on DVD as I SPIT ON YOUR CORPSE, isn't the greatest film ever made but it's certainly not as bad as some of the director's work. This movie wasn't made for the art crowd so only those wanting low-budget thrills should check it out.
Tender-Flesh The Syndicate has hired Donna to blackmail a politician. She's supposed to drug him, but the drug ends up giving the old fellow a heart attack(which was the plan all along, unbeknownst to Donna). Donna doesn't want to be a part of this and high tails it out of town and heads for Mexico. Almost immediately after leaving, the two women who recruited her, Erica the assassin and Sandra the prison escapee, set out to catch and kill her for trying to run. Then, a series of "unfortunate events" occur. Donna's car is stolen by a hitchhiker at a rundown gas station run by a tubby born-again Christian. Then Donna accepts a ride from an old gem collector who promptly drives her in his old Datsun back to his place to pleasure his idiot son. While she leaves the son in the lurch, Donna steals the truck and takes off down the old dirt road for God knows where with barely any fuel. Meanwhile, Erica and Sandra find the hitchhiker and blow her brains out then speed back to the filling station to find Donna who ironically was there when they stopped to ask Tubby if he'd seen the blue Pinto Donna drove. Then they find out where the old man lives and burn rubber out that way. WELL! By this time, Donna has indeed run out of gas and as luck would have it, a bo-hunk with the traditional 70's beard pulls up out of nowhere and she remembers him from the gas station. Well, she's got no time to worry if he's a serial rapist or whatnot, so she accepts a ride from him back to his campsite in the mountains. Then things get hairy. Erica and Sandra find the old man's house and promptly pistol whip him then later, Sandra rapes his idiot son and puts a bullet in his skull just as he's about to, well, you know.Now, I don't want to spoil the ending chase scene which completely comes out of left field and doesn't at all have the sort of storyline you'd expect from Hollywood. Let's just say the words Dune Buggy and Machine Gun are something you need to be familiar with for the last five minutes of this flick.I imagine they slapped this film with the silly video title of I Spit on Your Corpse to cash in on the popularity of the cult hit I Spit on Your Grave. This isn't a revenge thriller in that vein at all. For fans of bad films, you'll be surprised at the final scenes which actually are pretty good. And! the music! The soundtrack was the best thing about this movie. Real jazzy, almost blue music, that really changed to meet the needs of the action scenes. Very surprising, indeed. Overall, this film is the absolute best 70's adult film ever made....minus the sex scenes. There are several gratuitous bare breast shots and most of the babes in this movie were probably in other forgotten adult films, as they stand around to look hot and have no lines. If this film had been shot in two versions, one being hardcore XXX, then it would rate much much higher, I wager.This isn't a well-known film and I only watched it because I mistakenly thought it was a horror movie. Also, I had never seen any other "work" done by Georgina Spelvin so I didn't know which character she was until the movie was over. I can't believe I'm actually sort of recommending this, if you like cheese.
Jack Crash1959 For a while now, I've been on a quest to find hidden epic film experiences in what most people consider trash. I've come pretty close on many occasions, but possibly never so close as with this film. Al Adamson, the director, had a singular vision. A vision that admittedly fell short sometimes, but nonetheless provides for a viewing experience that is always, to say the least, unique. Georgina Spelvin, the overwhelmingly underrated star of the original "The Devil in Miss Jones", rips to shreds the southwestern Arizona scenery in Adamson's "I Spit on your Corpse", AKA "Girls For Rent". Here she plays a chain gang killer who makes her escape while on a desert road crew, killing several guards on her own. Once back in the loop, she's hired to hit a greedy politician, and so plans his demise with a heart attack inducing drug to be administered to him by a hooker who also works for the Man who hired Georgina. The hooker freaks when he dies because she was told it would just knock him out so they could take incriminating pictures of him. She goes on the run and hit-man logic states that if shes scared enough to run, shes scared enough to talk. So Georgina and her tough talking 70's style Black female partner, Played by Rosalind Miles set out after her across the desert of Arizona. Even though our hooker heroine has quite the head start, the salt and pepper hit ladies soon catch up with her. But because of poor driving skills or under performing Ford Pinto's they lose their prey. Then after a series of near misses and brutal outbursts the film climaxes with a very, almost, satisfying climax that even while being a little too convenient, still packs quite a punch. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a cool 70's vibe in their action quest.
movieman_kev Low-budget schlock director, Al Adamson & frequent collaborator, John D'Amato tell this story of Sandra Tate (adult movie star Georgina Spelvin of "Devil in Miss Jones" & "the Jade Pussycat" fame) a prisoner who escapes from custody during a cat-fight between the other female prisoners before she's picked up by Erica, a member of a crime syndicate who whisks her away to the head of said organization who promptly offers her a job which she promptly accepts. When the prostitute whom she hires to help eliminate her first assignment (a politician with a bad heart) bugs out and skips town for the border, Sandra & Erica are hot on her trail to tie up this loose end (no pun intended) I'm not usually too found of Al Adamson helmed films (Doctor Dracula & Dracula Vs. Frankenstien are utterly abysmal), but compared to his other output, this picture is actually pretty good. Doesn't hurt that I like Georgina Spelvin and think she was an under-rated golden age adult star (speaking of which she plays a real piece of work here) The movie drags in parts and has some filler, but the dune buggy/car chase was pretty good and although the movie was far from perfect I didn't feel as if I wasted my time watching it.Eye Candy: Sandy Carey & Tallie Cochrane get topless; Susan McIver and Georgina Spelvin both show T&A My Grade: C-
