Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! is a 1965 film written by Jack Moran and directed by Russ Meyer. The film features gratuitous violence, sexuality, and outrageously campy dialogue. It has become a cult film favorite and has inspired the rock band Faster Pussycat and an episode of Itchy and Scratchy called "Foster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" (in which Scratchy becomes Itchy's foster parent), and the Spice Girls' film clip for "Say You'll Be There."

It is one of Meyer's more provocatively titled and explicitly exploitative films, and yet unlike most of his films it does not contain explicit nudity.

Plot

The movie is about three thrill-seeking go-go dancers headed by a particularly fierce Varla, who are chanced upon by a young couple in the desert. After killing the boyfriend, Varla decides to drug the young girlfriend and take her along. The first stop on a long and desolate highway brings the foursome a telling old gas-station attendant who shares with them a story. This story results in Varla's scheme to rob a crippled, perverse, old man living with his two sons in a worn down ranch. Varla meets her match in this crippled old man who has a lust for the female flesh that can only be satiated through violence. The culmination of this vivid battle of some sort of wits is a sort of bloodbath from which only the young kidnapee and a moral and just son emerge with a second chance.
