Description:
Untamed girls in tight sweater kill for a thrill in this pretty-but-deadly drive-in double bill! 'The Violent Years' (1956, 65 min.) - From a screenplay by the one and only Ed Wood comes the story of good-girl-gone-bad Paula Parkins. Rebelling against her rich parents, Paula leads three high school hellcats in robbing a gas station, throwing a pajama party with older men and molesting a couple at Lovers' Lane! 'Girl Gang' (1954, 53 min.) - Delinquent devil-dolls who'll do anything for dope! When not engaged in marijuana make-out parties, these joypopping jezebels commit robberies to feed their heroin habit until a botched holdup leaves rich kid Wanda with a slug in her side. Two hilarious must-see camp classics with budgets as cheap as their women!

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not nearly bad enough
I expect less from Ed Wood jr. The movie details the exploits of a gang of bad girls gone really, comically wrong. Robbing gasoline seems a bit unnecessary in the days of 25 cent premium, but we get the point. And how could the cops mistake bandanna masked women for male juvenile delinquents? I don't recall men wearing that much make-up in the 1950's but this movie does come to us from the creator of "Glen or Glennda". Better is the "ravaging" scene set on lover's lane. However, the movie ends up ... Read More
Rating: - Bring a Six-Pack When You See This Schlock Fest
Lovers of Bad Cinema can't go wrong with this high-camp double feature from the folks at Something Weird Video - complete with drive-in ads, juvenile-delinquency shorts and schlock trailers. Everyone knows that Ed Wood wrote the screenplay for "The Violent Years," even though his name was omitted from the opening credits. Nevertheless, this 1956 saga of Girls Gone Bad has enough non-acting and Woodian dialogue to satisfy his most ardent fans. Cut from the same low-budget cloth, "Girl Gang" is even ... Read More
Rating:  - Drive-in trailers ruined with onscreen letters!
I sent this back after finding out the drive-in trailers have the letters "SWV" superimposed onscreen! I bought this just for these trailers, the movies are unvandalized but I won't buy any more titles from Something Weird because of this.
Rating:  - GREAT DOUBLE FEATURE!
Something Weird Video does it again with this great double-feature of girls gone wrong - teenage terror!
THE VIOLENT YEARS tells the story of rich kid Paula Parkins (Jean Moorhead) who rebels against her parents and joins a gang of devil-dolls who rob gas stations and take men up into the woods and rape them (....). Also featuring Barbara Weeks, Teresa Hancock and Joanne Cangi, it was scripted by the one and only Edward D. Wood Jr (PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE)!.
GIRL GANG tells the ... Read More
Rating: - The Violent, Girl-Gang Years
Something Weird Video has paired the Ed Wood classic flick "The Violent Years" with the similarly-themed movie "Girl Gang." Both films include Timothy Farrell, who also appeared in the Ed Wood classics "Glen or Glenda?" and "Jail Bait." In "The Violent Years" he co-stars as a police lieutenant, but in "Girl Gang" he stars as the head dope pusher - talk about a versatile actor!
My favorite scene in "The Violent Years" is when the women attack a couple parked in lover's lane. One of the gang ... Read More
