The Muthers (1976)
6/10
Only the low budget to mark it lower.

The most curvaceous pirates you've ever seen, in an experience they'll never forget. "Pirates? Like Errol Flynn?", one dumb onlooker says as they try to sell off what they've been carting, and they're reputation preceeds them. When the sister of one of them is kidnapped, they go undercover working on a coffee plantation which is really a front for human trafficking, and eventually, along with two other women they meet while "working", they escape into the jungle for more danger.

The acting by starred Jeannie Bell, Rosanne Katon, Trina Parks and Jayne Kennedy is sincere, and at least none of them come off as amateurish. The buxom females get to show off the goods while dealing with lecherous men and other deadly snakes of the reptilian kind.

The four main characters are generally pretty likeable although the slimy bad guys are cardboard figures. The print I saw was choppy and poor at the beginning but gradually improved as if the photographer used two different types of movie cameras. Lots of action, better dialog than I thought there would be, and some beautiful Philippino locations. One death is particularly gruesome.
