Roughies 1963 - 1968
by samoajoe-18635 | created - 14 Mar 2020 | updated - 18 Apr 2021 | PublicDRoughies were a more hardcore type of Nudie Cutie involving Torture, Rape, female Domination and violence agansit women.
They still only showed topless women and barebutt nudity but had themes which where more hardcore at the time, these films were really lo-ki as they were destroyed if descoverd, many people class them as horrors but they are not a horror at all more erotic.

Not alot of nudity but this roughie was more story based and that bath scene was amazing and best part of the film.

One of the first roughies, decent story iinda similar too Doris Wishman's early films but this one thet were forcing the women too do nude photo shots were in Doris's films they were ndies,.

Pretty bad reverse roughie only really 1 scene worth atching rest is pointless as there is 0 nudity, too make a roughie even reverse you need nudity along with anti women/men scenes depending if its a roughie or reverse roughie

Decent roughie good storyline and one you could follow, some of the scenes were a bit hardcore, but it's early torture sexploitation, and i'm not a fan of torture related erotica.
However i did get through the whole film, the only part which i would of avoided production in this roughie was the music scene, i'm not a fan of dancing too music half way through a film, i'm fine when its a lil bit of music but not a whole damm song.
Overall wattch it if torture is a thing of your liking, avoid if you don't like Roughie nudie cuties.

Similar too Lorna not really a good roughie the first rape scene i had a positive outlook for it since it was early on but then it just kept going down hill, story was good but i was expecting more from it espically wince the attempted rape scene was in the first 5 minutes of film.

The first Russ Meyer roughie and it's not good compared too his nudie cuties, he focused more on the storyline which made it a current film instead of what roughies were ment too be similar too nudie cuties but more hc.
Yes this had a few rape scenes, (ment tok be rape), forced strip too topless, and just rolling around with bottoms on.
Maybe a 70s or 80s sexploitation would be better so you can actually see sex scenes, but this for the era is awful, where the hell was the nudity at only like 3 scenes when nudie cuties have way more, even olgas girls had more nudity then this.
Do not watch unless you watch the only good part of the film.

This wasen't a roughie as in attemped rape, it was more a violence aganait men film a reverse roughie.
A young women takes an older man hostage in his house, and basically says she will cry rape if he turns her into the cops, she had the whle story worked out and that made complete sense and the story was working fine.
No nudity at all which is why i marking it lower compared too other roughies but there was a daddy kink througout the film.

Similar too Russ Meyers first ever 2 films, this one was more worked out well and was more of a roughie, at some coanches the tops get ripped off in some scenes which was a main roughie theme.
No sex scenes unsure why people still clas this sexploitation when there is 0 sex scenes, the only attemped rape / love scenes where all in clothing and just rolling around.
Mudhoney influnced the Grunge band mudhoney
And this is way better then Lorna just skip lorna and go streight too mudhoney if intrested in roughies / nudie cuties.

This film had a few Roughie scenes, mostly like others just men ripping clothes off of the women p, along with a bit of slapping and punching this one added.
A bit roughie too watch in a few scenes, though hence the name roughie, you also had too skip alot of scenes as most was just talking and blabbering while the roughie scenes happend near the end.
There was also a few nudie cutie scenes but most of this film was a roughie

Another Doris film and another trash Doris film, where is THE F'N NUDITY!!!, how could her first few films be the best and then stuff from 1965 just bad.
Nudie cuties and roughies have too have a minumal 1 nudie scene per 5 - 10 minutes and between that skimpy clothing shots.
This had a few good scenes, but most of the ripping of clothes scenes they left the bra and panties on, i wish i could give Doris films more likeong but with hardly any nudity it's pointless watching her films when trying to review the Roughie / Nudie scene of films.
And this is not SEXPLOITATION don't listen too those fools, beccause there is 0 sex scenes and like nearly no titty shoots.
15. The Dirty Girls (1965)

This roughie was more roughier then i have seen, whipping with a belt, now thats hardcore, its also the first european film of the genre i have seen, very unique this German / American roughie.
The first scenes were great, but the story of a prostitute in paris is a good one, it's a good film watch if intrested.
There is enough nudity, wish for a bit more but hey Germany has some great looking babes.

Not the best roughie really only 1 roughie scene and 0 nudity in that roughie scene, however there was alot of sleezy camera work but sadly not enough nudity.
Not the best roughie ,anly just avoid it as its not really a good one

Director: Anton Holden | Stars: Janine Lenon, Steve Hollister, Joanna Mills, Fleurette Carter
Votes: 216
Very preverted roughie dam it had some nice nudie scenes but the main dude then goes and kills the women after.
Some of the killing scenes are really extreme for that time period and what made it worse is at the scenes of the killings the film would stop and play music or someone would start speaking which made it even more creepier.
I have seen some creepy sh** in my life time but this has too be near the top.
Would not reccomend if not intrested in pshycological horrors but if you skip most of those parts and look at the tits dam they are nice.

A bit better then Meyers other 1967 film atlest this one had more consistint nudity, the sexual scenes are all fully clothed which was the main part of Roughies.

A decent roughie it had the shocking feel too it and the erotica feel as well, the first 10 minutes are hard too watch as a women gets whipped for sexual pleasure.
Though other then the strange sexual pleasures its a great film, the plot is intriging and makes you want too watch more even if it is shocking / bad in some scenes.

Not the best not the worst from Barry a bit slow in places as its manly telling a story running away from getting killed.
The sexual scenes are great and they are starting too moan while doing it which is a first but still fully clothed, there is also alot of talk about different sexual themes, watch it if you like barrys films skip it if you don't.

The first 9 minutes was great and just pulled me in its so rare for a roughie / nudie too do that and this Lee Frost roughie is super underrated, many people are knit picking about lightning or music, fuck those idiots this is a great film.
The story is great and is well written, worth a watch as it's one of the better Roughies of this era.
Alot of great akin scenes, rear end nudity, breasts, frontal nudity manly just female pubic hair but hey most scenes were full of nudity and that's what we wanted in early Sexploit flicks.

Was expecting more, this was an avrege film nothing too flash but overall it was good, i was expecting more nudity / scenes and that was a big let down.
This was suppose to be an erotic title but felt more like a feminazi hide the nudity film, the whipping and rough ripping of clothing scenes were the best parts the rest of the film was pretty mediocure.

Very good roughie, alot of whipping scenes etc it starts like a nudie women possing for a porno magazine and later they direct the women in films, you only see them rolling around with underwear on.
Though later they trick these girls into a bdsm location where they whip em until they bleed, the whipping scenes were a bit rough too watch though it was still a great story.

Where did the director find these apes in a trailor park?
Jesus the women were ugly and made the film not watchable due too the ugly scary women it's a shame as i was looking forward too it.
But as said there ugly when making sexploit / roughies you need hotties not apes which should br fare away from the cinema as possible.
It is also a reverse roughie female violence agansit men.
