The Voodoo Woman - 1957 - 5/10
Mix magic with science and, voilà, jungle masterpiece!
Dr. Gerard, using voodoo and Chemistry 101, attempts to create an invincible warrior.
Results ain’t working out so well.
Until, gun-toting, gold-hungry, two-faced Marilyn comes into the forbidden village.
“Aha,” thinks the scientist, ”here’s a subject with no silly qualms about killing.”
AIP cheapie, shot on soundstage, boasts Tom Conway and Touch Connors.
And Marla English, who, like any buxom starlet, never envisioned a future in awful movies.
Don’t blow past the trading post, either, where the canary (Giselle d’arc, a Yma Sumac type) sings two lounge numbers with bongo accompaniment.
Not without its charm, for those with a taste for schlock.
