THONG GIRLS (1987)

Las chicas del tanga

This 1983 production from writer/director Jess Franco can finally be experienced as one of his most surprising and heartfelt offerings of the decade: It's summer's end in the resort city of Benidorm, where seductive foreigners, conniving hustlers, gullible tourists and insatiable celebrities all come together in a barbed confection that's part sunny comedy, part NASHVILLE-style satire and totally, unmistakably, sexy Franco fun. Jess' partner/muse Lina Romay (at her most luscious) and production manager star Antonio Mayans (NIGHT OF OPEN SEX) are joined by a cast of familiar faces from their '80s stock company – including Eva León (MANSION OF THE LIVING DEAD), Muriel Montossé (THE INCONFESSABLE ORGIES OF EMMANUELLE), Juan Soler (CRIES OF PLEASURE) and Analía Ivars (BAHIA BLANCA) – in this unexpected delight from "one of the cinema's great individualists" (The Guardian).
