Watch Sex Kittens Go to College For Free

Sadly Over-hyped

It is a performances centric movie

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

A college computer nicknamed "Thinko" picks a woman with 13 university degrees to head up the campus science department. Expecting an academic-looking spinster, public relations man Martin "Marty" Milner is surprised to greet Mamie Van Doren at the train station, a stripper nicknamed "Tassels" who has a high IQ and measurements to match (she also speaks 18 languages: "What's the 18th?" .. "English."). Milner (also an associate producer) and Van Doren are an enervated pair; better are Norman "Woo Woo" Grabowski as the captain of the football team who is afraid of girls and Tuesday Weld as a co-ed desperate to get pinned. Brigitte Bardot's sister Mijanou makes her one and only screen appearance as a Frenchie doing her thesis on the human male, Jackie Coogan apes W.C. Fields, John Carradine is hypnotized into joining Tassels on the dance floor, and Conway Twitty wrote the songs. Cult film has all the ingredients for a great B-movie...everything, alas, but a funny script. * from ****

This movie has it all. There's Mamie van Doren as a super-intelligent professor/tassel-tosser. There's her pet monkey that plays the piano and the drums. There's a robot. There are gangsters. There's a ten-minute dream sequence of topless strippers. There's a high-speed firetruck driving scene with lots of nice 50s cars. There's Mamie making an introduction to her new students by shooting two revolvers all over the lecture room. Mamie shooting at the camera with a fire extinguisher. Conway Twitty singing rock'n'roll. Vampira making an appearance as a shaggy lab assistant. Brigitte's sister Mijanou Bardot sweet-talking as a French exchange student. What more could you possibly want? 103 minutes (uncut), never a dull moment. This is entertainment. If you are looking for something clever, you don't pick a movie named "Sex kittens go to college" anyway.

I caught this in the mid 1960s as a late Sunday night, (intended for adults), telecast here in Chicago. It was presented under the 'Beauty and the Robot' title. I thought it was pretty good. You had Mamie as a super intelligent, HOT, babe, taking on an entire college and trying to win the smart guy, Todd, from Route 66. She gets to hypnotize John Carradine into dancing. She gets to drive a fire engine. Bridget Bardot's sister wears the frat pin of her boyfriend on her bra strap, which sticks out of the over-sized, FlashDance', neck of her sweatshirt. Super hot rodder Norman 'Woo Woo' Grabowski is a major character. Louis Nye plays an old man. What more do you need ? Also, the full name of the computer/robot is SAM Thinko. The SAM stands for System Analog Modulator. It means nothing, but, sounds technical. Would be great to watch with friends and a few beers. Oh, yeah, we had a color TV, and, I swear this was in color. Maybe not.

It's really sad that there is only one comment on this fun classic in six years. Written and directed by Albert Zugsmith who worked with Orson Welles on one of his greatest films Touch of Evil, Sex Kittens Go To College is a great Psychotronic film that really should be out on DVD hopefully with a Joe Bob Briggs commentary. The cast is nothing short of amazing! Mamie Van Doren is a "genius" with 13 degrees and a body that drives men wild and women to fume with jealousy. Tuesday Weld is a bit young for college at 17 but looks fantastic. Mijanou Bardot is more like the right age at 21 and her frerrranch accent like the great one done by John Cleese in Holy Grail can't help but make you laugh. There's John Carradine doing the Charleston with Mamie. The great horror movie host Vampira (who dated James Dean and at 39 isn't the hag the other reviewer says she is)is Louis Nye's lab assistant taking care of Thinko the robot a computer (!) that is a big metal robot with a lot of phony machines all around him. Hopefully if they put this on DVD they'll get the European cut which includes four strippers who do their "acts" for Thinko and Voltaire the chimp who's dressed like a beatnik most of the time. The strippers get down to some pretty skimpy panties (one is a thong so young people who think those were invented in the nineties are wrong)and pasties on their nipples. This was really hot stuff in 1960. Today it would get a PG on ABC family channel. MST3K did a great job with one of Mamie's other classics Girl's Town but unfortunately never got to do this film. Here's hoping if the show ever comes back or Joe Bob gets a shot at it this is the film they do. Like Plan Nine From Outer Space this is a classic!
