Underrated Sequel to Hammer's SHE,
By
This review is from: The Vengeance of She [DVD] (DVD)
The Optimum DVD is a very nice transfer of this highly underrated Hammer film. Although not as good as SHE this sequel is nevertheless entertaining, at times exciting, and has fine production values throughout. Olinka Berova is one of Hammer's most beautiful discoveries and she turns in a sympathetic performance as the supposed reincarnation of Ayesha. This often maligned film is certainly of more than passing interest to Hammer's legion of fans and does not deserve its poor reputation.

My name is Carol,
By
This review is from: The Vengeance of She [DVD] (DVD)
Carol has disturbing dreams and wakes up screaming "Ayesha." She is also compelled to go to a secret destination. On the way, she has many trials and tribulations. She also befriends a psychiatrist that is interested in helping her by following her journey. Anyone who tries to deter her from her quest is mysteriously killed in the style of the movie "Final Destination" (2000). What will she find there and is she actually Ayesha or the victim of mind control?
Many viewers like to say, "This is not like the book `The Return of She'"; for these movie viewers have to also get over the loss of Ursula Andrews and the absence of the whip (should be "G" rated). Once the shock is over this is quite a good movie. The sets and scenes were well done. There was nothing unbelievable and nothing that looked like cardboard. The blue flame looked familiar to the original "She" Viewers. The cast was well chosen for the movie. Of course, there is Olinka Berova (Schoberov?) as Carol. She faithfully does a convincing job of playing a confused Carol/Ayesha. Another surprise is Colin Blakely. He plays a rich yacht owner (George) in this movie and played a rich yacht owner (Sir Horace Blatt) in Agatha Christie's "Evil Under the Sun" (1982)

One of those sequels that makes you long for the original,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vengeance of She [VHS] [1968] (VHS Tape)
"The Vengeance to She" is the sequel to Hammer Film's very popular "She." Unfortunately, not only does Olga Schoberova take over the role of Ayesha ("She Who Must Be Obeyed") from Ursula Andress, this 1967 film directed by Cliff Owen "updates" H. Rider Haggard's classic adventure story by making her a modern gal named Carol who cannot have a nice time on the French Riviera because she keeps hearing voices telling her to head east. Eventually she reaches the lost city of Kuma in Africa where she is worshipped as the reincarnation of Ayesha and wackiness ensues. This is one of those bad movies that becomes unintentionally funny. I suppose it might be more enjoyable as a double-bill with the original "She," assuming, of course, your standards for enjoyment decrease steadily over the course of the evening.
