The Bod Squad

This movie essentially begins with six European women being abducted while on their way to Australia by some Chinese pirates who intend to sell them in the sex-slave market. Once they get to the pirate stronghold one of the women resists and she is killed by the boss named "Chao" (Hsieh Wang). Fortunately for them a beautiful Chinese woman by the name of "Ko Mei Mei" (Hui-Ling Liu) helps calm them down at which point they reluctantly do as they are told. From here on the first half of the movie subsequently consists of the women being fondled--and almost raped on several occasions--with Ko Mei Mei always seeming to come to their rescue in the nick of time. Not only that, but she also has a brother named "Ko Pao" (Hua Yueh) who is intent on helping these women gain their freedom. However, in order to do that he has to bide his time and wait for the right moment. Realizing this, Ko Mei Mei proceeds to teach them a few kung fu moves to help them in preparation for the day when they will be sold in the slave market-and they become quite proficient very quickly. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a rather odd Chinese kung fu movie which was filmed in German and used English subtitles. As I mentioned earlier, it had a rather basic plot and mostly consisted of either scantily-clad women being groped or long scenes involving martial arts-or sometimes both at the same time. It also had some humor here and there as well. Yet even so, I honestly didn't think it was a very good picture and because of that I have rated it accordingly. Below average.

This movie rocks. Very attractive 70's chicks fight it out against evil chinese guys. This movie is highly entertaining and makes little sense. I simply loved it. The german director was also responsible for most parts of the infamous german sexploitation series SCHULMAEDCHEN REPORT, aka SCHOOL GIRL REPORTS in the early till late 70's.

Martial arts, slapstick, and loads of boobs - that' what The Bod Squad slams onto our plates.

Chinese girl traffickers kidnap a group of women who quickly pick up kung fu while in captivity.

After just 5 minutes of training in a laundry basement, they take down a bunch of rowdy, overbearing pirates. One more training session, and they tear the whole place apart and escape. One minute they're helpless chicks, the next they're killing with cold-blooded efficiency.

And, bless them, they do almost all of it in skimpy panties, bells a-jingling.

The movie's packed with absurd scenes-like using olive pits as ninja stars, spit-fired with deadly force. The girl's airbags are shamelessly deployed as close-combat distractions.

I saw this German/Chinese co-production in German and all I can say is at some point this schlock classic has to come to DVD in English because this movie is just too much fun.

As I said I saw this in German so I can't be sure how much I understood but I think it goes something like this: a group of white women are sold into slavery by some pirates t some warlord who runs a town. The women are to be prostitutes and sex slaves. The women are secretly trained in various martial arts by a woman who is trying to get rid of the warlord. At some point the women fight back and a huge battle ensues with the half dressed women fighting for their freedom against an army of men dressed as ninjas.

I really liked this movie a great deal even though I saw this in German sans subtitles. I didn't understand anything other than what could be shown, but with action this good it didn't make any difference. This is pure exploitation gold. The movie seems funny (intentionally), it has good acting, beautiful people, great action and the sense to just keep going. Its wonderful fun.

See this movie, even if you have to see it un-dubbed or subtitled, this is a movie that should be sought out by action and exploitation lovers everywhere.

Pirates attack an English merchant ship and kidnap 5 young women to sell them. But before they are sold as concubines, the five are first sent to a women's camp where they are taught what will make them good lovers later on. But one thing is certain for the 5 women: they want their freedom back, and they want it with the help of local fighting techniques!

"Schulmädchenreport" goes Hong Kong, Ernst Hofbauer meets Shaw Brothers: the result is a crazy genre mix of Asian kung fu film and German sex farce. Sounds like trash, and it is, but in a positive sense. The exploitation fan's heart beats faster, entertaining nonsense from beginning to end! Naked female power non-stop and wild, senseless martial arts interludes...what more could you want? Add to that the dubbing, which was usually great in those days. In any case, varied and entertaining, if you know what you're getting, you won't regret it.
