Fifties Cheesecake Dance No. 22

PLEASE READ THIS - This is the first of three clips from the highly amusing "Fire Maidens from Outer Space", an example of that rare animal, an English 1950s B-grade sci-fi schlock masterpiece. Another example is "Devil Girl from Mars" (1954) (see the clips of this one on Youtube).

Fire Maidens was directed by Cy Roth in 1956 and starred Anthony Dexter, Susan Shaw, Paul Carpenter and Jacqueline Curtis.

Make sure you watch the scene of the fire maidens bidding farewell to the handsome earth visitors at the end of "Fifties Cheescake Dance No. 24."

I am always looking for new ideas for this series. If you have any suggestions please don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Please put the rest of the movie up for us to enjoy. Your version does not have the jerks making dumb comments.

There is a version of this movie on YouTube but it is from the SciFi Channel with the 3 goofs making comments and spoiling the movie.

I'm sorry, but that"s not what I do. This series of clips specialises only in scenes showing corny, but slightly erotic, dance numbers. If you really want to watch the full movie you can buy it cheap on eBay or it may be available to download somewhere on The Net.

this isn't cheesecake..it's actually art, done well and reminescent of russian ballet. the score is famous.

[pwgr2000]

You're absolutely right - this film is high art and should not be smeared by the use of the term "cheesecake". That term should only be used for those cheap, lurid films where scantily-clad pretty girls dance around for no other purpose than the sexual arousal of men.

I'm not sure why I didn't see it before. Please forgive me. I promise I won't include any more classy films like this one in this series.

anthony dexter made the perfect valentino. as for this film, i can honestly say i've seen worse...i'm an mst3k fan.

[pwgr2000]

I had to look up "mst3k" to see what it meant. For the ignorant like me, it stands for "Mystery Science Theatre 3000". I watched a few clips of their stuff on Youtube and found it a little tedious and self-congratulatory. For me, the films themselves are much funnier than those lame commentaries.

As Leonard Maltin said about the film in his reference book "TV Movies", "You haven't lived until you've seen the Fire Maidens dance to 'Stranger In Paradise'".

And that's why we should explore the stars.

[Pickinbuddy]

Wow---"Stranger in Paradise" was a hit even on the Moon!!!

[goodmenace]

So I was watching the MST3K version of this on the plane to Hawaii....it got awkward.

This is a take-off from Fokine's choreography.

What's that pyramid structure on the bottom right of the screen in the movie/ Big brother watching???

[MORKOS621]

Why did they think that advanced alien civilizations looked like ancient Greece?
