It's time to get crazy, you know, buck wild as only the 1950's could, daddio! After all, The April 2011 A - Z Blogging Challenge is old enough to drink now! And booze might be in order if these three movies are triple featured together...not an unlikely proposition, since...
U is for Untamed Movie Posters!
Untamed Women (United Artists, 1952)
Untamed Youth (Warner Bros., 1957)
Untamed Mistress (Howco Productions, 1956)
Here are those sidebars for easier viewing - it's always important to know what you're going to SEE!
SEE?
Til next time, you Can Poke Me With A Fork, Cause I Am Outta Here!
Well, good thing they had those sidebars. That pretty much sold the movie. LOL
ReplyDeleteI think perhaps these are more frightening than the masked slasher flicks. "Which will be her mate, man or beast?" I can't imagine that poster showing in the Bible belt.
ReplyDeleteSo my question: Was it all sales and implication, or were the movies actually risque? And were they entertaining?
Thanks for the unusual posters of unique films sure to be packed with ululation!

Where do you find this stuff, Craig? It's amazing! Those posters are a hoot. The illustrations for Untamed Mistress look like kids story books of the era. Curious George, et al.
ReplyDeleteUntamed movie posters rock!
ReplyDeleteWhew...those sound like some hot/untamed movies!
ReplyDeleteJennifer - yeah, as is often the case - the sidebar holds all the glory!
ReplyDeleteJoe - I understand. I'm going to have to say a mix of implication and risque - it was a catchphrase for filmmakers such as these - sell the sizzle, not the steak!
Luana - just more evidence of my misspent youth! Thank heaven for the interweb!
Angela - They do! Thanks for stopping by!
Sharon - Well, the posters certainly are!
...i SEE...haha...I'm out of puns.
ReplyDeleteK - Actually, that wasn't bad at all, the way I SEE it...
