Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Hitchcoc We don't worry about motivations when it comes to guys who want to create new women. Unfortunately, the products aren't very good. Tom Conway, one of Hollywood's least memorable actors, is the jungle man with the cool hat who discovers something rather unsavory is going on among the trees. Well, of course it's an evil scientist. If you want to giggle, just listen to the dialogue. It is overly dramatic and stiff. This one doesn't even have the recommendation of being sort of funny. Unless we have a unique sense of humor.
Rainey Dawn Watch this film if you want to make fun of a movie. There is a lot to make fun of here because it's a real eye-roller. Dumb looking creature with a blonde wig. WOW that's scary! Let's not forget the bad acting - in particular the dark haired female lead. This female lead is just hateful and not tough. There's more to poke fun at but that give you and idea already. It's also very boring so it will help to pass the time to make fun of the film.Why isn't this another "Voodoo Man" titled film instead of being called "Voodoo Woman"? It's a man that is using voodoo to hoodoo the islanders among others. He's a "mad scientist" trying to create a perfect indestructible race that will do his bidding. Whatever.OK this film is going in my "garbage films" list. 2/10
MartinHafer "Voodoo Woman" is a super-cheap film from American-International Pictures. Now you know it's cheap as instead of giving the project to Roger Corman (who had a knack for making good films out of nothing), Edward Cahn directs this silly mess of a film.The film is set in voodoo country--a land inhabited by obese people who inexplicably have allowed a totally loony white man (Tom Conway) to live among them with his wife. I say inexplicably because these natives hate outsiders and keep threatening to kill him--then minutes later they're teaching him their deepest secrets! At the same time, an incredibly violent and vicious woman (Marla English) and her male cohort are planning on an expedition to the tribe with whom Conway lives--as the place apparently is loaded with gold. They need a guide, so they convince tough-talking Mike Connors to join them.By the time Connors and his new 'friends' meet up with Conway and his 'friends', it's obvious that bad things will happen. That's because Conway is truly crazy and plans on using his personal voodoo monster to kill (bummer)--all with very predictable results. All the viewer knows is that it's all pretty confusing and messy and you just want them all to die. Fortunately, most of them do! This film is just plain dumb. Often the plot just made little sense so someone would just kill someone of Marla would turn into a monster--the story itself made little difference. Bad acting, horrible writing and awkward direction--there really isn't anything to recommend this film unless you like bad movies. Pretty dumb...and made worse by the omnipresent soundtrack consisting of bongos--lots and lots of bongos! Yuck!
Michael_Elliott Voodoo Woman (1957)* (out of 4) Really bad film about a mad scientist in the African jungle turning a woman into a monster by using voodoo. I love these old "B" movies and AIP was always one of the best but this film here is just downright boring, slow and not interesting in anyway. The film is full of dialogue, which is poorly written and slows everything down. The performances are all equally bad but not bad enough to where we can laugh at them. The film is bad from start to finish but it never gets to the point to where you can laugh at it, which means the film is just hard to watch.
