Gwendoline

“Adventure without shame! A lost, lost civilization where no man has ever been...And for good reason!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 65, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A search for a missing butterfly hunter becomes an expedition into a fantastically designed lost civilisation. The performances can be awkward and the adventure is unabashedly erotic pulp, but the extravagant final destination is hard to mistake for anything else.
