Another real surprise from Vinegar Syndrome and well worth a watch for those of broad tastes. The girls are many and varied and the action also. Great photography includes night time street shots and we begin in more traditional New York nightlife territory before slipping over into Chinatown where our story of white slavers takes place. Actually that is massively overstating the plot which is simply a devise to introduce the many and varied as previously mentioned. Peonies Jong is the buxom Chinese who is at the centre of this colourful affair and among the fine cast are C J Laing in one of her very first films (presumably made on leave from her other job as groupie to the Grateful Dead!). The movie also features Jamie Gillis, whose appearance usually suggests a quality product. The soundtrack is amazing and includes many recognisable songs and orchestral bits and bobs - would have been a nightmare for anyone actually bothering with the copyright issues. Imaginatively constructed and shot and if it begins to wane after an hour it has still managed to weave some exotic potion along the way.
