Two Undercover Angels

Customer Reviews:

Fun, frothy, crazy.......2004-10-26

I love Jess Franco films, and this is one of his frothiest. No sex, but suggestiveness and madcap comedy abounds. A stylish, tongue-in-cheek twist, lightly ghoulish, effusive, with a pair of ahead-of-the-game gals. Probably not the best place to start watching Jess Franco films, but if watched the right way, this film just might make you happy.

Not the best place to start for a Franco newbie..........2002-04-17

...or even the experienced, err, Francophile. "Two Undercover Angels" reminds one of a tall soda, appealing at first glance but ultimately filled with empty calories. In this film, two attractive women live together as a detective agency called "Red Lips." The redhead (Jeanine Reynaud of the far superior "Succubus") is the brains of the group and seems almost like a poor man's Jane Fonda. The blonde, whose name I forget, seems airheaded but is a master of disguise. Little information is given of their backgrounds, which might have been helpful. They investigate a series of strange murders involving an art gallery, and director Franco makes a cameo as a toady who angers his employer. A wearwolf-like man known as "Morpho" (a common name in Franco's movies) also shows up. All in all, it's a confused mess, although there is some eye candy to be found, mostly in the Mediterranean setting, the two female leads, and an extended striptease scene set to ultra-groovy '60s mamba music.

Trashy Fun.......2001-09-19

Don't kid yourself this one is dreadful! But there is something funny about watching a couple of woman running around with a bomb looking for the perfect place to throw it to escape being blown up, while they deliver the most outrageous (stupid) lines which are suppose to be witty. This is one of my favorate, So bad it's funny films.

Headache Inducing - For Masochists Only.......2000-06-17

From the brash dialog to the annoying characters to the nonsensical narrative to the lackluster editing --- this has got to be one of the most grating films Jess Franco has ever done (and that's saying a lot!). The same characters were in Franco's "Kiss Me Monster", but it's a tossed coin to decide which movie is worse. This one is also known as "Sadisterotica" and is really a chore to sit through.

Description

Blue Underground proudly presents these psychedelic spy spoofs featuring the bold and beautiful detective duo The Red Lips! In TWO UNDERCOVER ANGELS, the sultry super-sleuths stumble upon a slew of murdered models, actresses and exotic dancers - all of whom appear in the work of a perverted pop artist. If he and his shaggy henchman are turning buxom beauties into art brut, can The Red Lips stop him before one of them becomes his next objet d'art? Then KISS ME, MONSTER finds the girls moonlighting on a striptease world tour - but no sooner do they hit the stage than the girls are up to their pasties in stiffs, Satanists and Sapphic sadists, all after a secret formula for human clones! But if The Red Lips can get to it first, will they still be able to survive the dangers lurking around every corner?

Director Jess Franco (SADOMANIA, 99 WOMEN) combines hedonistic fantasy with subversive wit in these sizzling thrillers showcasing the cheesecake charms of Janine Reynaud (SUCCUBUS) and Rosanna Yanni (COUNT DRACULA'S GREAT LOVE). Both films have been remastered from original vault elements and include all-new interviews with the infamous Jess Franco!
