Savage Fury Review

Directed by Marc Curtis. Released by Leisure Time Entertainment in 1985.

The story begins when Rick Savage is rejected and slapped by a college girl to whom he catcalls on the sidewalk. As revenge, he and four other guys (played by Peter North, David Sanders, Craig Roberts, and Tony Martino) go to her dorm room and force themselves on her and four of her friends (played by April May, Bunny Bleu, Christy Canyon, Beverly Bliss, and Josephine Carrington). Then one year later, the girls suddenly decide to get revenge on the guys by seducing them and then savagely, and somewhat gruesomely, murdering them with machine guns. There isn't much story development at all. Story Grade: F-.

This movie appears to have been shot on video (even though the feature is branded as a Marc Curtis "film"), but almost seemed to pass as low-grade film. Medium Grade: B.

There were very few outdoor shots and the indoor shots were tight most of the time, so one couldn't really evaluate the set design. According to the IMDB, the college campus was that of Indiana University Northwest in Gary, Indiana. Bonus points for including a Devo poster, a Mickey Mouse shirt, and cans of Coke and Sprite. Set Design: C+.

The sex performances were the bulk of the movie and not quite as sequential as IAFD would have you believe. There are really only two groups of sex scenes: the initial encounters and the revenge seductions. All of the sex scenes within each of those two groupings overlap, so they seem almost interminable. The performances themselves were fairly average. Sexual Performances Grade: C.

Not much acting existed in this movie, and what acting there was simply wasn't believable. Acting Grade: D-.

Nothing about the wardrobe was particularly sensational. The girls basically presented themselves as prostitutes in the revenge scenes, so their attire seemed appropriate for that purpose. Wardrobe/Make-Up Grade: C.

Lighting was not consistent from camera angle to camera angle within a given scene. Shadows of crew members were in some shots. In some shots, the lights would go from dim to bright. Lighting Grade: F.

The sound quality seemed to be of average quality throughout the feature. Sound Grade: C.

Whether or not the exterior footage of the campus is stock footage is unknown. I do recall reading that there was an x-rated production company headquartered in the Midwest in the 1980's, so it could have been shot explicitly for the movie. Beyond that, the production was mediocre. Directing Grade: D.

There could have been more story development. Given that college encounters are getting in the headlines more and more, it's doubtful that an x-rated movie like this would be made today. It would be interesting if the topic were portrayed more seriously in the adult industry, however. But this review is about what is in the movie, not what isn't, and what is in the movie in terms of artistic merit isn't much. Artistic Merit Grade: D-.

OVERALL GRADE: D.
