Wordiezett So much average

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

trashgang British cult flick that took a while to have a good release. Finally after 40 years it's available on DVD. It's based on an old English play about a family without a father living in a mansion seducing lonely men to bring them home to be playthings for the children. You better follow their play or girly will get angry.It was directed by British horror veteran Freddie Francis (The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) or Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968)) but still it was overlooked by the Brits even as it had a glowing review in Variety and had a limited US release. It suffered poor sales at the theaters and the distributor decided to stop promoting it. It got an extremely limited VHS release and once VHS was over it vanished into obscurity. But this flick is a perfect example that the internet could save a flick or bring it back on surface. In 2004 suddenly horror freaks copied it from VHS to DVD and a cult flick was back their on specialized sites, 6 years later it had it's official DVD release.Is it worth watching, well, it's slow but that's the nature of the time being. It is even low on red stuff and there's a lot of talking. The actors are of course all British and some made it into the scene like Pat Heywood (Nanny) moving further to 10 Rillington Place (1971) or Michael Bryant going to Ghandi (1982). Howard Trevor (Sonny) only made it in two flicks as Vanessa Howard (Girly) only acted until 1973. Typical British acting, with posh English language, clocks in over 90 minutes and did survive the time because you still want to know what is going to happen to the family.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 0/5 Story 3/5 Coedy 0/5

gridoon2018 ....are what I'll remember the most from this one. Vanessa Howard is nearly always dressed in very short skirts, and the director often shoots her from low angles specifically selected to emphasize her legs even more; she makes evil look tempting and sexy. She also does by far the best acting in the film - she is the only one who hits more notes than the one of amused, apathetic amorality of the others. The film has an inspired start, helped by a deceptively jaunty music score, but wears out its novelty value pretty quickly: OK, we get it, this is a seriously warped family; now what? But Girly's presence, along with some clever black humor ("I'm sorry, I didn't mean to....break my toy drummer"!), will keep you watching. ** out of 4.

HumanoidOfFlesh "Mumsy,Nanny,Sonny and Girly" is a dark 1969 British horror-comedy which is based on a stage play by Maisie Mosco entitled "Happy Family".The main characters of the film are the members of a wealthy British family whose names are synonymous with their roles within the family:the mother called Mumsy,the maid called Nanny,the son called Sonny and the daughter called Girly.Despite being in their twenties Sonny and Girly act like prepubescent children,dressing in British school uniforms and sleeping in giant cribs in a room full of toys.Sonny and Girly regularly seek out male loners,hobos and hippies to lure back to their house,where they are then forced to play "The Game".When the "new friends" refuse to participate they are murdered or "sent to the angels".Freddie Francis's "Girly" is a fantastic film which faded into obscurity too quickly.During a 2004 Freddie Francis film festival in England, the organizers struggled to find a VHS copy of the film to screen, but couldn't come up with one and it was briefly thought to be lost to the public,until copies began to surface on the internet in 2004.The acting is solid and there is enough creepy moments to satisfy any self-respecting horror fan.8 out of 10.

possessionx about three years ago, my friend gave me a VHS which contained three films. One of them being "GIRLY". I was board one day so I threw it in My VCR, I watched the first two movies which were not too bad, but when girly came on I was really hooked. I actually rewound the picture and watched it a second time. I still remember soldier in the beginning of the movie. He is my favorite character. near the start of the picture, it's hilarious when girly gives him the flask and he takes it without question. Another one of my favorite parts of the movie is when girly sings the siamese national anthem. Anyway, Girly definitely is one of the best movies ever made. I would definitely rate it 10/10.
