Synopsis

Sexploitation, B movies, Grindhouse fares, or in a more decent term, these are called Erotic Cinema. The radical emergence of the so-called 'crap cinema' since the 70s in the US and Europe, there has been time and again extortion of feminine bodies as ultimate sexual subjects in the eyes of masculinity. An artist and B-movie collector Triple X puts together a compilation of lezsploitation, a whole variety of Swedish wildcats, frisky lesbian inmates, lesbian vampires, and sassy nuns that were made to satisfy sexual appetite of male audience. The contextual lesbian sex scenes discovered by Triple X Selects: The Best of Lezsploitation are reshaped through determined efforts toward intact restoration of womanly desire which has been exploited in the male-oriented angle. Now these men's sexcats are reborn as dauntless warrior princesses. (Jin PARK)
