Thought Lost, but nowFound -- On Blu-ray

By any measurement, this is one weird film for several reasons.It's a cheap-oh drive in movie that is actually fairly well made.The acting is pretty OK, as movies like this go.The title character is a dude in a dress.Many people here wrongly characterize the Miss Leslie character as a transsexual, trying to include this in some positive way with the LGBT movement. Unfortunately it's an erroneous assumption.Miss Leslie was played by Salvador Ugarte, who was a Cuban playright and actor out of Florida perforing in Spanish language productions.He was a friend of mine and I can telly you that Miss Leslie is actually supposed to be a man in a dress. In other words, I transvestite, not a transsexual. Sal told me the character has no interest in becoming a woman for real; he's manifesting a fantasy of his mother. Sort of an Ed Gein character, actually.You'll also notice his voice is dubbed with that of an American woman in the movie. Sal had a Spanish accent!!Anyway I saw this orginally in what may be the only place it played theatrically in 1972 -- at the Gulf States Twin Air West Driveiin in Penssacola Fl., double billed with a Brit Comedy Drama called "Girly." (And in case you are wondering, the character Girly is a female actress."Anyway, some of the dialog is dumb but it's such an odd movie, you will want to seek it out and watch.

Not Much Else Like It

Miss Leslie's Dolls wears its low budget and limited resources on its sleeve and feels like it was cobbled together over a holiday weekend, but there's so much charm and spirit that one can overlook any major flaws and appreciate it for the bizarre freak show that it is.

Like in many horror films, a car full of fresh blood breaks down in the middle of nowhere and the inhabitants (in this case, 3 college girls and one guy) find shelter in a spooky house by a graveyard where an eccentric middle aged woman named Miss Leslie lives. Miss Leslie is immediately drawn to one of the girls who bears a striking resemblance to someone she once knew and loved. As the night goes on, the group of young folks find out that Miss Leslie isn't as harmless as they once thought and their lives could be in danger.

Miss Leslie's Dolls suffers from many quirks that a lot of low budget films have. Some of the acting isn't so great, nighttime scenes are sometimes impossible to make out, pacing is off and can feel padded at times, and most of the gore effects amount to someone throwing a bucket of fake blood on the floor. Still, your jaw will rarely leave the floor throughout its run time.
