While dozens of Rene Bond porn films have gotten attention of late from various video companies, Something Weird's "lost in the catalog" issue of GIRL IN A BASKET remains obscure. That's a shame, because out of literally a hundred movies featuring either Bond or her paramour Ric Lutze (or both of them together) this is the biggie.
The anonymous filmmakers demonstrate a real talent for the "roughie" genre, with an obsessiveness on tortured sex rivalling Nagisa Oshima's classic IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES a few years later. Wall-to-wall sex for over an hour becomes tedious, but I'm sure the fans will approve.
Simple premise has Bond bathing and masturbating, looking as fresh and innocent as I've ever seen her. She's walking to a gas station to pick up her car when a couple in a station wagon kidnap her, and it's threesome sex for the duration.
Ric Lutze as "Daddy" literally dominates the film (and Bond), barking orders, threatening his captive with a knife and later torturing her with the old "pliers applied to nipples" routine. His partner in crime & lovemaking "Honey" is played by the plain, flat-chested Candy Allison, whose work I'm not familiar with and who was probably unable to escape the porn loops field.
Bond resists admirably as the duo subject her to double penetration with a vibrator and dildo, Ric ends her virginity twice over, and the requisite humiliation is also endured.
Film's title stems from an imaginative final sequence, where each of the leading ladies is suspended in a ratan basket-chair, to swivel/hump atop Ric's cock for highly photogenic and unusual XXX shots.
With some repeat footage and a slightly slo-mo romantic interlude tossed in the movie does overstay its welcome, but has to be admired for its nearly experimental single-mindedness of execution. Overall, the torture/porn content is mild by late '70s/early '80s roughie standards, but must have been an eye-opener circa 1970.
