* Sociopolitical Sexploitation ...
lt's not often that sexploitation movies take on sociopolitical themes, but these two movies made during the Vietnam era do just that (well, sort of), with mixed results. "Wilbur and the Baby Factory" is the goofy story of a jug-eared ladies man (Peter Ford) who dodges the draft by agreeing to participate in a two-year experiment in which he's to father 2,OOO children. "Wilbur" is a cut above the usual trash culled from the vaults of producer Harry Novak, with a fairly interesting script, higher (but still cheap) production values and a pretty catchy theme song. The sex, however, is closer to what you might find from the nudie cutie era than '7Os softcore. Not so in "Tanya," a softcore sex-a-thon inspired by the Patty Hearst kidnapping. Looking like it was filmed in someone's garage, "Tanya" offers plenty of sex and self-parody, with Maria Arnold (a.k.a. Aronoff) getting most of the laughs as the empty-headed kidnap victim. When Cinque, the leader of the "Symphonic Liberation Army," attempts to rape her, Arnold innocently responds: "Don't you know l'm engaged?" Later, another member of the SLA suggests the kidnapped heiress adopt a new name like Cinque. "But Cinque's already taken," she replies. Both movies on this disk feature Russ Meyer alumni: Stuart Lancaster has a small role in "Wilbur" as wheelchair-bound, micro-endowed villain W.W.; and Patrick Wright has an even smaller role in "Tanya" as a cop who discovers the SLA's hideout. While not the cream of Something Weird Video's tawdry crop, both movies amusingly--if not always cleverly-- twist the issues and events of their time into sexploitation vehicles that are worth checking out.
