Trailer Trash XXXVI: The Doll Squad, AKA Seduce and Destroy (1973)

"America's newest and deadliest secret weapon!"

If I've learned anything from bad action movies (and I mean anything!), it's that one in ten strippers is secretly a CIA Super-Commando. (See Doll Squad or the even sweeter Hell Squad.)

This is one of those trailers that I just have to let speak for itself. It's got EVERYTHING - from bad kung fu to bad special effects to bad acting. Hell, two guys just straight up explode in this trailer. Have at you:



At 0:20 - Is that supposed to be fire?
At 0:35 - "Every class of society" in this movie pretty much means strippers and karate teachers only.
At 0:55 - "Brilliantly portrayed" may be a bit of a stretch.
At 1:10 - HOLY SHIT THAT GUY JUST BLEW THE HELL UP!??
At 1:12 - OH SHIT THAT GUY JUST BLEW UP TOO!!??
At 1:18 - Lightning powers! Use that Force!

I just noticed how many people get capped in this movie. Damn. The Doll Squad is just shooting EVERYBODY.

At 2:28 - Are they getting shot, or slipping on banana peels?
At 3:03 - This narrator's not afraid of hyperbole.

Yeah, wow. Twenty-three people are shot and/or exploded on-camera in this trailer alone. That has to be SOME sort of record.


"They work - and kill - for Uncle Sam!"
