Today we answer the question: why did the 2021 version of Madame Claude so prominently feature coyote fur coats? Was it because the film’s costume department meticulously analyzed the fur-wearing habits of high-class ’70s escorts and cross-referenced the socioeconomic status of the average Parisian citizen during the decade in question? No. It’s because the 1977… Read More Furs on Film – Madame Claude (1977)
Time to play “how quickly can I get a copyright claim on Youtube” with the most recent film I have ever reviewed: Respect. Since it came out in 2021 and has real fur, you better believe it’s a period piece, just like everything else I have reviewed released after 2010. You’d think there was something… Read More Furs on Film – Respect (2021)
Time for the soft announcement that this is now just an Edwige Fenech stan blog. Well, not quite yet, but suffice to say, after Asso, I started… prioritizing my review queue. Sadly, this is not as good as Asso, but I suspect I may have inadvertently started with the greatest Edwige Fenech fur film. No… Read More Furs on Film – Strip Nude for Your Killer (1975)
Since it is 2022, this update will be a little more “underground” than I’d like. During the Internet’s infancy, there was far more discussion of this particular little flick, and I suspect it is because the scenes within perhaps… awakened something? Well, “suspect” is not the correct term, “was claimed explicitly” is probably more accurate.… Read More Furs on Film – The Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976)
Yes, I know about Madame Claude. This popped into the suggestion box multiple times, along with some brave soul who may have thought they were making a funny by suggesting Cruella. Well, jokes on them. I mean, there is a site search; check it out before you spam me. Madame Claude 2021 – The Movie… Read More Furs on Film – Madame Claude (2021)
Guess I should put some more effort into this. Thus, as of the current status of my review of all fur media, I present the greatest fur film of the 1970s, The Bitch. It has a couple of things in common with the greatest fur film of the 1930s, The Mad Miss Manton: lots of… Read More Furs on Film – The Bitch (1979)
How bout an Ozploitation flick? This one is fun for a few reasons. It’s one of the first I’ve posted with a unique combination of multiple release titles and a severed pig’s head. TCM showed it as Snapshot, as that was the name it was released under in its country of origin, Australia. It can… Read More Furs on Film – Snapshot (1979)
If I possessed any sense of timing, this would have been a great week to post the Dr. Phibes update. Halloween, etc… Lacking suitable alternatives from the horror genre (again, there aren’t many furs there, and “SyFy” doesn’t show Dracula’s Daughter anymore), I’ll go with young Jodie Foster in fox fur stoles. Never a bad… Read More Furs in Film – The Hotel New Hampshire (1984)
Soap.net abandoned me a while back. I knew I was in trouble the minute I saw commercials for 90210. As I knew it would, the network’s line-up was slowly overtaken by 90’s soaps. Except for 60 minutes in the wee hours of the morning for Ryan’s Hope, the network is devoid of any worthwhile programming.… Read More Furs on TV – Knots Landing (1982-1989)
