Lina Romay and Nadine Pascal star as strippers who are busted
and turned into spies by the government.
Meanwhile, a couple kidnaps a girl and holds her hostage. They repeatedly rape her, hypnotize her, and
sell her into white slavery. It’s then
up to the strippers-turned-spies to rescue her.
Jess Franco’s Two Female Spies with Flowered Panties is a lighthearted,
cheap, and fitfully amusing exploitation item.
While it’s not always successful, there’s always a lot of skin on
display. The opening sequence in which
our two heroines are forced to do an impromptu striptease to prove their
credentials is pretty funny.
Not all the humor works though. The scene where Pascal “rapes” a gay guy is
played for laughs, but is more bizarre than anything. For every amusing bit of business, there’s a
dull sequence or two where Franco basically lets the pacing up and die.
Ultimately, the indifferent pacing in the second half
squanders any potential the first half contained. Franco never finds a consistent rhythm or
tone, which further hampers things. Even
when he’s piling on the sleaze, there are sequences that flounder. Take for instance the long striptease scene that
just has the strippers slowly rocking back and forth while looking completely
spaced out. It goes on forever and isn’t
very sexy at all.
Fans of Franco and Romay probably won’t be deterred. Romay is naked enough that it will more than
likely get a pass from most of her ardent admirers. For newcomers, there are plenty other of
their collaborations you could waste your time with.
