Milligan's Final Bow
This final work of late-great cult-film director Andy Milligan is one of his few excursions into campiness in the broader sense. But then again, this came from the mind of the man who gave you "The Rats Are Coming, the Werewolves Are Here," as well as a cornucopia of other low-budget slasher extravaganzas rich in comedic undertones throughout the 60's and 70's, so it's not completely a first in that regard.

The plot concerns itself with some mysterious goings on at one Goode Community Hospital. Patients and doctors have started dropping like flies for no apparent reason -- exploding on operating tables, being fried to a crisp by radium balls, and sent down the stairs in runaway wheelchairs -- much to the dismay of Dr. Grace Goode (Bouvier), the idealistic matron of the medical institution that "cares about the people they care for."

Though this mayhem at first appears to be the random work of an escaped psychopath, we are soon led to believe that the killings have been carefully orchestrated for the express purpose of putting Goode Community permanently out of business.

The list of potential suspects is immense, among them the skirt-chasing head surgeon, Dr. Howard Fine (aptly portrayed by Al Silver), who'll eagerly sacrifice his ethics for a quick buck, hospital financial advisor, Sly Sickem (Robert Odell), who believes the institution's financial woes could be remedied by turning it into a shopping mall, and the newest arrival, a 16 year-old thumb-sucking intern from a rival hospital, Dr. Albert Schweitzer (played with Woody Allenesque zaniness by Doug Eames). Could it be one of these, or might the perky yet strangely masculine head nurse, Rona Ratchett have a few secrets of her own? Or how about the panty-wearing security guard (Michael Buckband) -- or maybe the fortune hunting attorney, Lou Pohl (Carroll Oden of "The Weirdo")?

Lest you deceive yourself, this movie is definitely low-budget fare in the tradition of Ed Wood, made during the last few moments preceding the dawn of political correctness, the late eighties. There's something in here to offend everyone, the least of which is bad acting. Yet at the same time, its bizarre characters and irreverent plot provide a refreshing departure from the standard big-budget blockbusters cornering so much of the market today. It's a must for Andy Milligan fans, the final opus of an under-appreciated filmmaking great. ... Read more

Pure slock
This movie is pure corn in that it takes every opportunity to include every bad joke about women's ta-tas. But on a late evening after a hard day, it's enough. Yep, sometimes we need to view cheesy bad movie to appreciate the times that we can view high quality films. This movies does a great job. Big breasted women exploited for all they are worth with low budget laughs. Satisfied my craving for pure slock.

This is the Joe Bob Briggs Presents Version!
This is the second DVD version of "The Double-D Avenger," from Elite Entertainment, which features Joe Bob Brigg's hilarious audio commentary, along with other new bonus features, including a "Making of" documentary, new images, trailers, and more.

The special "Making of" documentary is a total GAS, with stars like Kitten Natividad fouling up their lines, making complete arses out of themselves! Director William Winckler is also seen doing stuntwork, dressed in Kitten Natividad's superhero costume! It's a complete riot!

The movie is very, very campy, and famous drive-in movie critic Joe Bob Briggs makes it even campier!!! A fun movie guarenteed to give audiences big laughs. . . . something everyone needs right now! It's as close to "Mystery Science Theater" as you can get nowdays!

Probably the last time audiences will see their favorite Russ Meyer movie stars, all together, starring as leads in a film! A special treat for B-movie buffs!

A-plus, hilarious, crazy entertainment!! It's real low-budget, B-movie fun! As Joe Bob Briggs says, "check it out!"

Double D Fun
The Double D Avenger is a uniquely entertaining DVD starring former stars of Russ Meyers films. Kitten Natividad has always been my fav, and even though she's on the plus side of 50, Ms. Natividad still delivers the goods. This movie is for the kind of men (and women) who like good-humored fun, like the original "Batman" TV series. The girls are buxom and there's lots of double entendres and politically incorrect humor (like an early John Waters movie without the X-Rated stuff). The "Crockazilla Plant" scene is as funny as anything I've ever seen in a movie, and the character of "Orbs, Leader of the Ta Tas" should have her own film. Just lots of fun and a real guilty pleasure. Plus...Forrest J. Ackerman has a cameo!

A Great Cult Film !!!
I love cult films and this one is great ! The Double-D Avenger is the Russ Meyer filmstar reunion movie.

Like a lot of Russ Meyer fans, I preferred Meyers' early work- the black and white 60's films like 'Faster Pussycat Kill Kill'. I feel that the ones he made in the 70s became lousy, disjointed sleaze.

The Double-D Avenger has all the positive Russ Meyer movie elements, plus it's full of other cult movie elements, including good ol' Uncle Forry - Forrest J Ackerman. A++++

Benny Hill Fans Rejoice !
This B-movie is an absolute riot ! Very few flicks today can come close to the clever cheekiness of Benny Hill's comedy. This one definitely does ! The risque slapstick, saucy humour, visual gags, and innuendo are reminiscent of Benny Hill. And just like Benny Hill, this movie does not resort to offensive gratuitous nudity. Bravo to this film's creators ! ... Read more

Description

Welcome to Smiley's Supermarket... A Strange Fellow (Joe Gillis) has come shopping to what appears to be the world's largest supermarket. After wreaking havoc with clerks and patrons alike, he makes his way toward the miles and miles of checkout lines. As far as he can see, rows of people are waiting, their carts overflowing with every conceivable product. The Fellow looks disparagingly at his cart with only a few items lining the bottom. There must be a way out of this! He spies a very short line way up in front, the banner above announcing "9 Items or Less." Upon counting, he discovers he has ten items in his cart. What should he do? He does what every moral, self-respecting citizen would do - he goes to the "9 Items or Less" line anyway, resulting in a hysterical battle of wills between the Strange Fellow and the Cashier (Matias Bombal). ...
