Wild Women

About This Movie

So, 'Wild Women' from 1970 is this curious little TV movie that blends Western themes with a distinctly feminist twist. You’ve got these five female convicts who are not just skirting the edges of society but are actually taking charge in a pretty rugged setting. The pacing feels a bit uneven, but that kind of adds to its charm—like a dusty old trail that leads you into unexpected territory. The practical effects aren't groundbreaking, but they fit the gritty atmosphere nicely. Performances range from the solid to the surprisingly engaging, which makes it distinctive in the way it counters the typical male-dominated narratives of the era. It's definitely one of those hidden gems worth exploring, if you like your Westerns with a twist.

'Wild Women' has had a somewhat elusive presence in the collector's market, primarily existing in old VHS formats for a long time. There have been some recent discussions about possible digital transfers, but nothing concrete yet. Scarcity is a real factor here, as not many prints seem to have survived the years. Collector interest is slowly growing, particularly among those who appreciate offbeat Westerns and unique female-led narratives from this period.
