Fighting Femmes, Fiends and Fanatics Ep.10

Richard Harrison was an all-around actor in Italy during the 60s and 70s: doing Eurospy, sword & sandal, and spaghetti westerns. Regrettably, the swan song of his career was in those god-awful Godfrey Ho ninja pics in the 80s!

Hi Steve,

great work, thanks a lot :-)

Can you tell me/us the name of the first two little clips in your video - the first with the two cowgirls and the second with the women fighting on the beach?

Thanks and best regards

@mmpmmp2 Yes, the first clip (cowgirls) comes from Oldur Onu, a Turkish western movie spoof produced around 2007. The Asian fighting clip that follows comes from Deadly Silver Angels from the early 80's, I believe.

Another awesome review, Steve. I have not seen this particular one but have see Lightning Bolt which I found to be so/so. Secret Agent Fireball is another one I've wanted to see, possibly just because I like the title. How does it compare by the way?

On a similar note I believe there is a Roger Hanin spy film from this same era in which Sylvia Kosina costars. Any chance you could identify that one and/or review it? I kinda digs 60 spy films. They're like super groovy cool far out fun!

@MollyWhipple Thanks Molly. I'm in full agreement about the general grooviness of 60's spy movies. I suspect most U.S. moviegoers though, have never even heard the term "eurospy" before, much less enjoyed the giddy pleasure of watching them.

Super Agent Fireball is fun too. It has the standard where's-the-microfilm plot, but a lot of gadgets, action, and pretty girls.

The Hanin-Koscina movie is "A Ace and 4 Queens", which would be a super choice for review, but I first have to track it down.
