A Nightmare in an Old Western Street
25 July 2011
This is the first Russ Meyer film I ever watched, although not a good movie it is certainly worth watching.

The plot line is simple, in a POV, you, the main character(let's assume it is at least since it's never shown who is) walks into an old western city in ruins, a chap shows up and tells you how the town used to be in flashbacks. "This town was so bad that we was ashamed to name it." in the old drunk own words.

The next minutes are filled with cheap jokes so bad that it will make you giggle anyway.

One thing worth noting is the nightmarish nature of the flashback sequences, specially the ones in the bar and the motel. I don't know if that's what Meyer wanted to achieve but if so, he certainly did.

This is one of those movies that you should watch at 4 in the morning when you can't sleep and nothing good is on TV.
