This is one of my all time favorite filmmakers. His stuff is just so visually dynamic. A number of Russ's flicks have been available for over a year now on DVD, direct from his own company, at http://www.russmeyer.com, all Region 1. So far he has released about half of his output on DVD including "Lorna""Mudhoney" "Mondo Topless"
"Vixen""Cherry Harry and Raquel" "Supervixens""Beneath the Valley of the Ultra Vixens" and my favorite, "Up!" (I became friends with its star, Raven de la Croix, last year when she appeared at my Thrillville show with the new movie "Double D Avenger" which also stars several other Meyer women. She is quite a nice babe, extremely funny and smart.) Still waiting for "Faster Pussycat" to come out on DVD, but rumor has it his other most popular movie, though he doesn't own the distribution rights, "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" (since he made it for Fox, along with another one called "7 Seconds" or something) may be coming out on DVD soon as part of the stellar Criterion Collection, which would be killer news.
