Abbott and Costello go to Mars [F] (C) **

In this movie, their rocket ship lands back on earth, and 2 crooks find a ray gun on it. The ray gun shoots paralyzer rays. Naturally, they take it right to the bank to rob it. Too bad bank tellers were men back then. Everyone gets frozen, one girl. Not a great scene, but I love the ray gun concept.

Abre los ojos (aka Open Your Eyes) [M] (SF) -

In one scene, when Penelope Cruz is in bed on top of Eduardo Noriega, she freezes in a position and tells him that he has to put a coin in in order for her to move again, so he puts an imaginary coin in her shoulder. It's a brief scene. There's a scene earlier in the movie in which she stands motionless on a park bench as part of a mime act. Remade in the USA as "Vanilla Sky".

Adventures of Pluto Nash, The [A] (SF) *1/2

Randy Quaid plays an android bodyguard. Jacynthe René plays french maid android Babette, who gets deactivated at one point.

After Hours [S] (C) -

He winds up in the basement studio of a female artist, who agrees to hide him... by creating a plaster & paper-mache sculpture around him. He escapes the mob, but by the time they leave, the media has dried and he can't move -- nor is the artist willing to free him. (Moved from the Unknown section).

A professor experimenting in suspended animation accidentally shrinks his dog and later, his female lab assistant, when she drinks the liquid by accident and shrinks to 3 inches tall. The professor keeps her in his pocket until he can find an antidote. Sometimes she's naked, too. She cannot move, but I'm not sure if she remains conscious or not.

Android [A](SF) ***

Klaus Kinski as a mad scientist on a space station who builds two androids for company, one of them a sexy blonde.

Angel of H.E.A.T. [A] (A) **

80's secret agent spoof in which many female robots start, stop. At the end all the androids freeze and melt away.

Armageddon: The Final Challenge [A] (SF) -

Scenes at the beginning of pleasure droids under construction. Some are apparently motionless.

Aria [M] (M&P) **

A collection of erotic shorts. In one scene, 2 girls are standing as statues, nude, for no apparent reason.

Artificial Intelligence: AI [A] (SF) -

Some scenes in the middle of male and female androids and robots penned up at a "Flesh Fair" destined for destruction by humans. One female robot is tied at the stake and covered with acid while singing a French song. In the early part of the movie, another female robot undergoes a test where she is interviewed and poked with a pencil and says "Ow!" rather stiltedly and robotically.

Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery [A] (C) **

Fembots are frozen at the beginning of each scene they appear in. The silver costumes are nice, too.

Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me [A] (C) *

Austin's wife turns out to be a fembot. There is one scene where Austin is using the TV remote and she is being controled by it.

Automatic [A] (A/SF) -

Nora is a secretary at an android factory, and also the prototype for the newest model.

Avenging Angelo [M] (A) -

In one particular seen in a mall Madeleine Stowe holds up a shoe with both hands as if to worship it. She steps into a spot light and the camera freezes her in a very mannequin like pose. This lasts for about four seconds until the shoe is shot out of her hand by hitman, and the freeze ends. It's very short but she has the perfect physique and pose, in this all too brief shot.

Ballerina [A][F] (M&P) -

A Danish ballerina's mentor inspires her to overcome obstacles and dance "Coppelia". Good robotic/freeze dancing at the end.

Barbarella [S] (A/SF) -

After Barbarella beds Piegon the studly angel there's a brief scene where they walk through a rock garden where amorous couples are being absorbed into the stone, becoming living friezes.

Batteries Included (aka RoboVixens) [A] (X) -

A dating service rents robot girls. Except for a nice start-up scene at the start, no robot action at all.

Beach Fever [H] (C) -

Teens develop love potion, which is then stolen by gangsters who use it to turn women into prostitutes. Some of the entranced women act quite stiff and robotic.

Bedlam [S] (H) -

Reported to be the first movie to use the concept of murder by painting the skin (ala Goldfinger). It is not known if this scene qualifies for ASFR content. Reviews of this movie would be welcome.

Beverly Hills Ninja [S] (A/C) -

One of the ninjas, played by Robin Shou, camoflages himself as a silver statue to look after a fellow ninja, played by Chris Farley.

Bicentennial Man [A] (SF) *1/2

One robot's 200 year journey to become an ordinary man. Few scenes of a female android, Galatea, but mostly it's a male android movie.

Big Trouble in Little China [H] (A) {***}

Kim Cattrall (at about the same time that she was in "Mannequin") and a Chinese girl are hypnotized during some sort of magic ritual. They do a great job looking blank and oblivious to the weirdness around them.

Blade Runner [A] (SF) **

Kind of goes without saying, doesn't it? Little action at all, really, save for a scene where Darryl Hannah plays mannequin to trap Harrison Ford.

Blue Flame [A] (SF) -

One of the characters is a fembot. She gets fried at the end.

Bluebeard [I][M] (H) {*1/2}

1972 retelling of the classic tale with Richard Burton in the title role and Joey Heatherton. Bluebeard kills off all his wives (all ultra-vixens) and stores their bodies in a big walk-in freezer. Very low-grade production values; the frozen wives are very obvious plaster mannequins.

Bubble, The [A][F] (SF) **

A pilot and his two passengers must make an emergency landing when a violent storm overtakes their craft. The next morning they head into town and discover Americana gone awry. Its residents are robotlike, repeating the same things over and over again. The three grab a truck and head out, but are met by an impenetrable wall that stretches all around them. Recently released (in 3-D, no less) on DVD.

Bucket of Blood, A [S] (H) {*}

A 50's horror movie where a nerdy artist finds out that if he kills people and makes statues out of them, that everyone will like his 'realistic' work. He does it to a cat first, and later to a female model. The cat scene is better.

Bufords Beach Bunnies [H] {*}

Honorable mention; no statues, but one (maybe two) scenes where a magician hypnotizes girls into taking off their clothes.

Can't Stop the Music [M] (C) *

One of the worst movies of all time, but it delivers a brief clip of live mannequins in New York.

Cape Canaveral Monsters, The [F] (H) {**}

Aliens are transporting people back to their planet. First, they freeze them. In one scene, 2 teens (m & f) are paralyzed in a cave. Then they are frozen in tubes. One star for each scene.

Cafe Flesh 2 [I] (X) {***}

A "disco-babe" from the 70's is discovered frozen in a cryogenic tube (nude, of course) in a far-off future world. Brief scene but very good.

Captain Barbell [I] (C) -

A Phillipino DVD about the origin of this superhero (he picks up a magical barbell in the gym one day.) One of the villains is named Freezy, who was once a virginal lab assistant frozen in a block of ice by her rapist; since then she enjoys seducing men and freezing them with her icy kiss. The special effects appear to be done with Adobe AfterEffects and are thusly more than a little cheesy and obvious, but there are lots of them, and they're fun. The only drawback to the movie is that it's in Tagalog with no English translation.

Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter [H] (H) **

Has an interesting scene of a sword fight taking place through a roomful of people mesmerized into statue-like immobility.

Carry on Screaming [M] (C/H) **

One in the series of British "Carry On" screwball comedies. Women are kidnapped and turned into store mannequins.

Cherry 2000 [A][F] (SF) ***

Near-future SF film about a pleasure droid who malfunctions and the search for a replacement in the typical dystopian wasteland. A few nice moves, near the beginning and right at the end. Also has a few deactivated "floor models".

Chicago [A][M] (C) ***

There is a great scene in which Richard Gere "operates" Renée Zellweger as though she's a ventriloquists dummy. For several minutes, during a song. She's made up like one, and does an excellent job of looking and acting boneless and artificial.

Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang [A][M] (M&P) ***

Yes, the kid's film. Sally Ann Howe masquerades as a wind-up music box doll, doing a VERY nice mechanical song number, even with sounds effects as she moves.

Clash of the Titans[S] (A/SF) *1/2

A classic statue film involving the legend of Perseus vs. Medusa. No female statues that I recall, but many male ones (some transformed onscreen). My personal bias towards female scenes lowers the rating, but it is stat-of-the-art statuemaking from 1981 nonetheless.

Class of 1999 [A] (SF/H) -

Teachers are androids. Pam Grier is the only gynoid.

Clockstoppers [A] (SF/H) ***

Mildly disappointing considering the premise, but does manage to deliver a few very good scenes.

Collectible [M] (X) -

A rich man hires people to pose around his house as living statues in various states of dress.

Condor [A] (SF) -

In futuristic LA, Condor fights the Black Widow. Contains gynoids.

Control Factor [H][F] (A/SF) -

The movie has a small freeze scene in it about 30 minutes into the film. A few different people get frozen with people moving around them. Too short but good none the less.

Creation of the Humanoids [A] (SF) -

Cyborgs rebel against the remnants of humanity in this 60's post-apocalypse war film.

The Crucible of Terror [S] (H) -

In the opening scene a woman is covered in plaster and then bronzed. Some scenes of her in statue form later on.

Cybersex [A] (X) -

Man falls in love with an insatiable military android.

Cyberzone (aka Droid Gunner) [A] [F](SF) **

A film by Fred Olen Ray about a bounty hunter sent to recover a shipment of Pleasure Droids. The girls are very attractive, and one very nice (but all too brief) activation scene.

Cyborg 1,2, and 3 [A] (SF) **

Various female cyborgs in all three shows. The best clips are from #2.

Daitozoku [S] (SF/A) -

A Japanese movie in which a witch with Medusa powers turns a male guard and a female slave into stone statues when they glance at her face. Nice petrification scenes here too, for a 1960's film. If you like forced petrifications, this is an extra bonus, as the victims all moan and cry out with defensive gestures before succumbing to the effects of the magic! At the end of the movie, the witch herself accidentally gazes at her face in disguised mirror and is forced into stone herself, which reverses the stone spell, and you are blessed to watch the statues turn back into living persons, by showing the curvy grey stone lines reverse up their bodies.

Dark Side of the Moon, The [A][F] (SF/H) ***

Ship's computer is a girl in a chair. Lots of startup/shutdown scenes.

Deadly Friend [A] (SF) *

Matthew Lebourteaux rebuilds his murdered girlfriend as a robot and she starts to go haywire and dangerous.

Delivery Boys [S] (C) -

Pizza delivery boys break a statue and must take it's place. Other statues also played by real people.

Devil-Doll, The (1936) [F] (H) **

Interesting "horror" film about Barrymore shrinking people and making them commit murders for him. It's not really scary but the special effects are very good, even by today's standards. The female "doll" is played by a real woman, and the dolls freeze up when not being directed by someone.

Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood [F] (C) -

Its not quite a freeze, but Ashley Judd's character tries to kill herself by taking a lot of diet pills. Her husband and a doctor try to feed her and revive her. Her eyes are open and she doesn't move, he kisses her open mouth and even tries to feed her. It lasts for a good while too. It happens near the end.

Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine [A] (C/H) **

One of the Beach Party movies by Sam Arkoff. Vincent Price plays a scientist (mad, need I add) who builds robot women to marry off to rich bachelors and kill them for money. Highlights: many scenes of robotic action and posing.

Dr. Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs [A] (C) ***

Also released under several other titles. A sequel to the Bikini Machine, directed by Mario Bava. The robot girls now have bombs in their bellybuttons and explode when they are kissed. Highlights: A robotic dance number where dozens of girls clank their way around. And it's repeated over the credits.

Draughtsman's Contract,The [S] (D/C)-

In one part of this long, very talky film there's a brief shot of a painted human statue leaping from pedestal to pedestal in the garden, as human statues were sometimes employed to do in that era (the 1600s.) In one scene you see him urinating.

Dungeonmaster,The [F] -

Richard Moll plays the videogame villain who freezes a girl partway in his private art gallery.

Enemy of the State [F] (A) *

Brief "bullet time" freeze in the lingerie store.

Erotica Optique [A] (SF/X) -

OK, but don't believe the box- these women are not, were not, and never will be robots.

Eve of Destruction [A] (A/SF) *

Eve-88 is a beautiful war droid out on a tear.

Exotic House of Wax, The (aka Erotic House of Wax) [M] (X) **

The waxwork statues are played by real people, who occasionally come to life for erotic encounters.

Extreme Sex 3: Wired [A][F] (X) ***

One scene involves a wind-up puppet. SPECTACULAR start-up sequence.

Fanny and Alexander [S] (D) -

Swedish drama from the 80s. There is a brief scene where a child sees a statue appear to come to life. Moved from the Unknown section, where it was incorrectly said to be a TV series.

Farrah Fawcett-All of Me [S] -

features a sculpting session where the statue is replaced by a real model covered in clay to resemble a statue.

Fatal Pulse [S] (H) -

A sorority girlis kidnapped by the insane killer, tied to a large table, and then slowly coated with plaster. Unfortunately, the killer only does her top (in order to suffocate her), and we do not see a finished statue.

Flesh Gordon [F] (C/SF) **

The bad guy in this flick has a thing for ice. They use weapons that freeze people in ice. Great scene of a frozen babe named Dale, and a few others not worth mentioning.

Flying Dutchman, The [I] (H) -

See "Frozen in Fear"

Fong Shi Yu II: Wan fu mo di [F] (A) -

Kung Fu movie starring Jet Li as Fong Sai Yuk. A group of kung fu guys utilize "nerve point blocking",and in a few scenes freeze a bunch of people incuding one of the hottest asian girls I've ever seen. Rent it for the kung fu as well.

For Members Only [S] (X) -

Contains a scene where a young woman is cast and they use the mold to create a glass shell of her body.

Fore Play [A] (C) {*}

Norman buys a doll that is not only lifelike in size, shape, and texture but also follows voice commands. Norman gets all he desires and much, much more.

Four Deuces, The [S] (A) **

A gangster movie which includes a scene in a nightclub with a few nude women posing as silver statues. Excelent paint and posing.

Frankenhooker [A] (C/H) -

Guy's girl dies in a lawnmower accident, and he rebuilds her using parts of hookers. Hilarious film by Frank Hennenlotter.

Freeze Me [I] (?) -

This is a Japanese film entitled "Freeze Me", which, apparently, despite the compelling poster image (included on the site) and title, is not really a movie of asfr interest. The image of the frozen woman on the poster, however, is not bad.

Frozen in Fear [I] (H) -

There is a very short scene at the end where you can tell there are 3 girls frozen in blocks of ice. But its a very quick shot, and you really don't see any detail. The little pic on the back cover is a better shot than you'll ever see in the movie itself.

Futureworld [A] **

Sequel to West World, and about the same quality.

Galaxina [A] (SF) **

film starring Dorothy Stratten as a female android. As a robot chick, she's no great shakes, but in the space bordello there's a robot waitress that just makes the whole film.

Genesis [S] (H) -

Short film from Spain based on the pygmalion story - the pix look very promising - climax scene of statue coming to life. If you have any details, please let me know.

Ghost in the Invisible Bikini, The [F] -

Susan Hart is a ghost who can freeze time. In a wax museum, another girl plays a mechanical manniquin. Reportedly excellent wind-up motion.

Ghoulies [H] (H) -

Teen becomes evil magician and hypnotizes girlfriend and others. Includes scenes of monotone talking and people frozen into statues.

Girl, the Gold Watch and Everything, The [F] (C/SF) ***

1980's TV movie pair. Robert Hayes and Pam Dawber (from Mork and Mindy). The old time stopping stopwatch again! When he first figures out what it does he freezes time on a beach scene (near beginning). Even better is the scene near the end where Pam Dawber is frozen, and he poses her on a bench. Not much in between from what I remember. Catch it if you can.

Girl, the gold Watch and Dynamite, The [F] (C/SF) ***

Sequel to the above, this time Morgan Fairchild gets it toward the end of the movie. I don't recall too much else, but she's worth it.

Gog [I] (SF/H) {1/2}

A strange creature is causing havoc in a scientific outpost. In the very opening scene, a scientist and his comely assistant are experimenting on freezing and thawing out a monkey. The creature traps the scientist in the big cryo-freezer and you see him ice up right before he crashes to the floor and shatters, and the same thing then happens to the assistant, but is not seen, though you hear her screams. This film was originally 3-D, but I'm not sure if you could find it in that format now.

Golden Touch, The [S] (X) -

Crystal Gold turns herself into gold at the very end of the video. Excellent body paint job, but too short a scene.

Goldfinger [S] (A) **

The famous gold covered girl in this classic James Bond film is worth watching, but the best part is the credits.

Gun Shy [S] (A) **

Stars Liam Neeson and Sandra Bullock. At the beginning, a distraught Neeson relives a DEA drug sting that he was involved in that went bad. It happened at a drug-lord's palatial house, which was adorned with classical female statues. In Neeson's sort of hallucinogenic memory, he sees the statues get down off their pedestals and flee the chaotic scene. It's several nude women painted marble-white, and there's several shots of them climbing down and running across the room in slow-motion. .

Heartbeeps [A] (SF/C) -

A love afair between two robots. Hey go ahead and laugh, one of them is Bernadette Peters.

Heatseeker [F][H][A] (A/SF) ***

This really bad kickboxing movie has a few really good scenes involving controlling a girl with a computer chip. She is "deactivated" with a keyboard, and stands blank and frozen. In one scene, she is partially undressed while under the chip's control.

Hercules Unchained [S] (A) -

A virgin is sacrificed to a living rock wall, which slowly engulfs her and turns her into stone. Several earlier victims form a very sexy frozen frieze.

House of Wax [M] (H) *

Vincent Price plays a mad sculptor who turns people into wax dummies. Originally released in 3D, it is based on an earlier film titled "Mystery of the Wax Museum".

How to Make a Doll [A] -

A tease flick by noted gore director Herschell Gordon Lewis. A nerdish guy builds a computer that makes robot women. Good mechanical voices.

Human Duplicators, The [A] (SF) -

Not a great movie, but includes several robot women in high heels.

I Love Maria (aka Roboforce) [A] -

Hong Kong action flick about a robot woman built by evil scientists who goes renegade and becomes good. She's all black metal/plastic, save for her face, and she's quite sexy. In the climax she gets re-built in silver chrome. Great robotic action, start-up/shutdown.

Iceman [I](D/SF) *

A caveman is found frozen in arctic ice and brought back to life.

In Like Flint [F] (A/C) **

The second Flint film. Women attempt to take over the world. Flint's girls are placed in cryogenic chambers and frozen, soon followed by Flint.

Inspector Gadget 2 [F][A] (C/SF) **1/2

Aside from the gadget girl, who has a few decent start-up sequences, there is a villian who uses a ray to freeze people in the town. The scenes are very far away and/or effects freezes. Very disapointing. The DVD extra features has a few better clips.

Invasion of the Bee Girls [S] (SF) -

A woman is totally coated in alginate, another material used for casting. They cut away just after her head is coated. After some intervening fiddling by the Head Evil Chick with a gizmo to turn her into a Bee Girl, they peel her out of the stuff.

Jimmy, the Boy Wonder [F] (M&P) -

A loony children's musical about a boy who stops time while remaining free to move among the fronzen people and change the course of events.

Just Visiting [S] (SF/C) {**}

Christina Applegate (playing a medieval princess in a dual role) is shown as a frozen, stone-like statue at the very end of the film when the knight returns to his own time. It's brief, and does not have a lot of contrast to it, but it's OK. There's even some marble-like veining to her stony countenance.

Kiss the Girls and Make Them Die [F] ***

A James Bond type spy movie from the 60's. A deranged scientist wants to be the only man capable of reproducing. He keeps a collection of girls frozen in glass tubes. One scene of an asian girl being added to his collection, and late in the movie the entire collection is revealed. If you can find this one, catch it.

Kiss Me Quick! (aka Dr. Breedlove) [A] -

Tease film from the sixties about a mad scientist who builds robot women for an alien who sounds like Stan Laurel. Highlights: One girl is turned on from a standing start, strip teases, and is shut off.

Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park [A] (H/SF) -

There's some people playing andriods in there and others playing animatronics and there's even some "troublemakers" getting made into park attractions.

Light Years [S][A] (A/SF) -

Animated movie with some pretty good petrification scenes in it. People get turned to stone, transported to the future and turned into robots, etc. Check it out.

Lightning Bolt [I](A/SF) {*1/2}

Low-quality spy "thriller", James Bond rip-off. The bad guy is a rich evil genius with plans to control the world. His way of dealing with people who disobey him is to freeze them indefinitely in cryogenic compartments (which look like shower stalls). The tag line on the movie's poster reads, "Submit to the master or be frozen forever in his cold-storage harem!"- Yeah, sort of. There are some nice babes preserved and on display, but the production values are awfully cheesy.

Lili [F] (M&P) -

There is a sequence part way through the movie where Lili dreams about a magician. She is wearing a short costume and when she pays no attention to him, he freezes her. As he moves around her only her eyes move. She doesn't move when the serving tray in her hand flies out. It's about a minute overall, but pretty decent.

Lipgloss Explosion [M][A] (C/SF) -

Lipgloss Explosion is a weird independent film about female robots taking over the world. Her ray gun can turn girls into zombies, or aparently, mannequins. If anyone's actually seen this movie, please let me know.

Living Doll [A] (X) -

Not to be confused with the TV series. A toy store full of randy dolls, including an "Electronic" woman doll, a teddy bear and more. In truth, the cover photo of a woman posing like a mannequin in a cage is sexier than the film.

Llegaron de los Marcianos [F][S] (C)(SF) -

(Return of the Martians) A Spanish comedy from the 1960s featuring four Martians who come to Earth on a scouting mission. They have a freeze ray they use to immobilize their victims, including lots of beautiful women... inspired, clearly, by the American TV series 'My Favorite Martian.' It's a lot of fun. Two of the frozen victims -- male -- are later turned into a fountain.

Logan's Run [I] (SF) ***

This classic freeze scene involves several nudes in blocks of ice.

Looker [F] (SF) **

A gun hypnotically freezes people. Disappointing.

Lord of the Dance [A][M] (M&P) ***

A girl plays a mechanical music box doll. Short scene, but very well done mechanical movements. (Note: this scene is cut from the TV version.)

Lost In Space [F] (SF) *1/2

Brief scene in which the female members of the crew are seen floating in the ship frozen in their tight-fitting costumes.

Lust Runner [A] (X/SF) -

Loosely based on Blade Runner. One character is a female android. One nice scene as she describes her abilities and programming, though not too robotic.

Making Mr. Right [A] (C/SF) **

One of the few male sexy robots. Anne Magnusson falls in love with an android designed to go into space. Many mechanical moments, great for the ladies.

Man with the Golden Gun, The [F] (A) **

9th bond film has a scene were a girl has been assasinated in public and sits seemingly frozen while 007 tries to talk to her. Better than it may sound.

Mannequin [M] (C) ***

A window mannequin (Kim Cattrall) comes to life only for the man who made her.

Mannequin 2: On the Move [M] (C) ****

Kristy Swanson stars as an enchanted peasant girl who comes to life after the removal of her cursed necklace. Don't expect a great story, but it's a classic for mannequin lovers.

Mastermind [F] (C/H)-

An Asian girl is shot with paralyzing drug dart in a Japanese Baths setting. Not to be confused with the recent movie 'Masterminds' with Patrick Stewart.

Matter of Life and Death, A [F] (aka Stairway to Heaven) (SF) ***

David Niven plays an RAF pilot who narrowly escapes death when he crashes over England, then falls in love with the radio operator (Kim Hunter) who talked him down. But there's been a mix-up in Heaven. Niven's character was supposed to die, and by getting involved with the girl he's messed up Destiny. And so his body falls into a coma on Earth and he is put on trial in Heaven. In one scene his Heavenly defense counsel accompanies him to Earth, and time is frozen while they are there. They study June (Hunter) as she is frozen at the hospital. Very well done scene. (Note: this was previously unidentified on the Odds & Ends page - Thanks Leem!)

Meatballs III [F] (C) **

In this sequel to Meatballs, an ex-X queen comes back to help a nerd. She brings with her the power to freeze people. Could have been a lot better. I recall one scene where the nerd is kissing his date, and she gets frozen. There are one or two others.

Men in Black [F] (C/SF) **

Main characters have freezing device, a couple of decent scenes.

Metropolis [A] (SF) **

The classic silent film by Fritz Lang. The Maria automaton is a classic design, and her human form is also quite sensual. She poses on stage during one scene.

The Midas Touch [S] (X) **

Various women are turned into gold. Decent paint jobs, does not include hair.

Mill of the Stone Women [S] (H) {**}

They like turning women into stone statues. I think there was one good scene where they transform a girl into a stone statue. That's about all.

Minority Report [F] (A) *1/2

Tom Cruise is shaved and frozen in a cryogenic tube as part of his sentencing toward the end of the movie. In the beginning, there's a long sequence of the cryogenic prison showing suspended tubes holding many frozen prisoners.

Mystery of the wax Museum [M] (H) *

Old black and white film, later remade with Vincent Price as "House of Wax". Some of the wax figures appear to be real people.

Night Life of the Gods, The [S] (C) -

1935 film based on the book by Thorne Smith. A man creates a ring that can turn people into statues and statues into people. Craziness ensues. Reported to be "probably the best movie ever made regarding statues".

Night of the Living Babes [H] (X) -

Film in the Rocky Horror vein. Zombie hookers are immobile until turned on, then become insatiable.

Night of the Living Debbies [A] (X) -

Nina Hartley stars in this film about a mad scientist who builds robot love dolls. Some GREAT voice, and start-up/wind down action, and good motion scenes.

Nutcracker, The [A] (M&P) **

Various versions have aired over the years. Most include a wind-up ballerina played by a real ballerina. (I've seen two versions, and liked both.)

One Touch of Venus [S] (C) *

Fantasy comedy about a young window dresser who kisses a statue of Venus, which then comes to life in the form of Ava Gardner. The problems begin, however, when Venus falls in love with him.

One Million Years DD [I] (X) {***}

A cave-woman is found frozen in a big block of ice (nude, of course). She later thaws out and her place is taken by a modern-woman (also nude) in the big block of ice. Despite the low budget, it's very convincing and the ladies hold their poses in the ice very well.

Our Man Flint [H] (A/C) **

James Coburn plays Derek Flint, a super spy. An evil organization keeps their workers happy by hypnotizing women and turning them into "Pleasure Units." The female lead is inducted in a very sexy scene that features several women.

Party Girl [F] (C) -

Parker Posey freezes three times on the dance floor. She's so good at freezing.

Perfect Woman, The [A] (C/SF) -

An old (1949) black and white film about a guy who creates the perfect woman (which is a robot of course) which looks like his niece. She causes some problems with it and then assumes the role of the robot to trick everyone. It was really quite good and she did an excellent job in freezing and robotic action.

Pleasure Maze [A] (X) -

Testing lab for robot women. Little action, some good start-up scenes. Highlight: Nina Hartley as a model being tested for the first time.

Popcorn [S] (H) -

There is a lengthy scene in which a woman is encased in plaster from the neck down. She is sort of a statue that the killer taunts. Not bad, but the movie itself is really terrible.

Prescription for Pleasure [A] {*}

Disappointing film about a company who offers fantasies acted out by robots. Save for a scene where two people stand still and a fat guy says they're robots, no action at all.

Programmed For Pleasure [A] -

Dubbed version of a French film called la Object du Femme (The Female Object.) A SF author builds himself a robot woman as insatiable as he is. Great moves, good robot-acting, very erotic.

Programmed to Kill [A] (SF) *

Sandahl Bergman as an injured female terrorist, rebuilt as a superstrong cyborg with a remote control microchip implanted in her brain. Somewhat enjoyable to watch her walk around with a blank expression until she manages to regain self-awareness.

The Puppet Masters [H] (SF) *

Brief scene of room full of hypnotized-looking people. Disappointing.

Queen of the Damned, The [S] (H) -

The Queen starts the movie as a living statue, which has existed for thousands of years as such. Great looking makeup! At the end, she dies, and the next oldest vampire (Lena Olin) takes her place as a statue. There were several quick scenes of Lestat touching a marble statue of a beautiful woman and it coming to life. There were several flash scenes but it looked like several ladies were getting the statue treatment. Turning to statues or changing from being ones, I don't know. There were definately some hot looking women, so keep your eyes open for this one.

Revenge of the Teenage Vixens form outer space [F] (C/SF) {**}

The alien girls like turning teenagers into vegetables (literally). In one scene, several teens are frozen like statues, before being turned into carrots. The scene has no explanation as to how they got frozen, and is not repeated, but hey, we take what we can get!

Robo C.H.I.C. [A] -

Robot woman fights crime. Some very nice movement and activation scenes near the beginning.

RoboFox / RoboFox II [A] -

An ugly woman is hit by a car, and is rebuilt by a man-hating female doctor into Angela Baron. Sorry, but wooden acting does not make one a robot. Not worth the trouble.

RoboSex [A] -

Aliens kidnap people, turn them into mindless robots in an attempt to take over the world. Okay voices (a little too much electronic fiddling makes them hard to understand).

Robotrix [A] (SF/C) -

Hong Kong action flick about an android made in the image of a dead lady cop.

Rocket Man [F] (SF/C) *

Girl is in hypersleep. Nothing special, but it's easy to find.

Rocky Horror Picture Show, The [S] (C/H/SF) ***

A classic. Janet and the others get turned into stone statues by a 'medusa' ray near the end. The whole movie is erotic.

Running Delilah [A] (A/H) *

A man rebuilds his murdered sister as a cyborg killer.

Secrets of the French Police [S] (H) -

A guy turns a girl into an exquisite statue with plaster. Nude, we see her plastered from the neck down, and the hero later examines her completed statue reclining on a pedestal.

Sex Aliens [A] (X) -

Two space girls come to Earth in search of their king. They use two robot girls as soldiers, and kidnap and reprogram one Earth girl. Very nice start-up sequences, little to no robot action afterwards.

Sex Droids (aka Bionic Babes) [A] (X) -

A scientist's "Plastic People" are tested in a lab. Unimpressive save for one brief startup scene.

Shanks [H] (H) -

Marcel Marceau stars as a puppeteer who learns from a scientist how to animate the dead and move them like puppets. Many of the females are quite attractive. Last film directed by William Castle, and quite good in its own right.

Some Girls Do [A] (A/C) -

James Bond clone film from the 60's including an island full of robotized women whose brains have been replaced by computers. A few short shut-off scenes, not much else. The film's lousy too.

Something Wicked This Way Comes [I] (H) {*1/2}

Disney production about a weird circus that comes to town. One of the arrivals is "The most beautiful woman in the world", plausibly portrayed by Pam Grier, who arrives on scene in a big block of ice. A nice distance shot and close-up of her face, but then she opens her eyes, ruining the whole effect.

Space Virgins [A] (X) -

Parody of "Invaders from Mars". People are taken over by aliens and have some very impressive robotic encounters.

Starcrash [I][F] (SF) -

The female lead (Caroline Munro) is stranded outside her spaceship in a blizzard. She's frozen overnight, but her robot buddy defrosts her after getting her back inside the ship. There's also a time stop sequence later on in this otherwise-lame Star Wars ripoff.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture [A] (SF/A) *

Ilia (Persis Khambatta) is kidnapped by the alien space entity and replaced by a robot . Very sexy outfit, motion and voice (some electronic distortion).

Steel and Lace [A] (H) *

Bruce Davison rebuilds his murdered sister as a robot to seduce and kill the men who murdered her.

Stepford Wives, The [A] (SF/H) *

A icons/new England town's women are all turned into obedient loving robots by their husbands. There have been several sequels on TV as well. Disappointing.

The Stepville Wives (aka Her Total Response) [A] (X) -

Features young women with circuit boards in the back of their necks doing lewd things. There was a nice scene when one got stuck in a DO loop and had to be reset.

Suburban Commando [F] (C/SF) *

Bad guy has a freeze gun. Dissapointingly few shots of good looking women, though.

Super Fuzz [F] (A/SF) -

A cop with supernatural powers played by Terence Hill freezes his girlfriend.

Superman III [A] (A/SF) *

As Superman battles a mad supercomputer, a woman is absorbed by the machine and turned into a battle robot. Not a very attractive one, though.

Superstar [F] (C) -

Another SNL skit turned movie. In once scene a room full of students start out frozen, then dance robotically for a few seconds before breaking into a normal dance scene.

Tales of Hoffman [A] (A) -

A classic opera, adapted many times to stage, film and television. The first story is about a mechanical doll that the title character falls in love with.

TC 2000 [A] (SF/A) *

In a futuristic society, a female cop is killed and made into a cyborg.

Terror in the Wax Museum [F][M] (H) **

A mad scientist finds a serum to freeze people into living statues.

There's No Business Like Show Business [S] (M&P) ***

In the musical number "Man Chases a Girl", a man gets hit on the head and the statues of a fountain (originally real statues) come to life (are replace by real girls). Very fun watching the statue-painted girls chase him around and freeze in various poses.

Thief of Baghdad, The [S] -

The hero, on a quest for the Blue Rose to cure his beloved, comes across a realm of women. The leader tries to slip the hero a drink with powder she secretly added, only to have the hero switch drinks on her. She drinks from the tainted cup and is turned to stone.

This Strange Passion [M] (aka El) -

A glimpse into the mind of a neurotic -- nay, psychopathic -- man who imagines he brings death to the women he is attracted to. In one part, spurned by a model, he buys a lifelike mannequin replica of her and talks to it, then feeds it into a kiln, with a long shot of it burning and melting.

Time Piece [F] (X)? ***

AKA "Come Play with Me". A woman has a watch that stops time. In one scene, she freezes and strips a lady in an elevator.

Tourist Trap [M] (H) **

A disappointment. Chuck Connors plays a looney who has the power to turn people into mannequins. Instead of using his powers wisely, he seems to like throwing axes at their heads. One good mannequin scene where he shows his statue wife, and a few brief glimpses otherwise. Another waste of good talent!

Trancers [F] I-IV (A/SF) **

A recent Sci Fi where time travelers have the ability to freeze time. In the first one, Helen Hunt is frozen in a brief time-stop scene. I haven't seen the others.

Twilight Pink [F][H] (X) -

Twilight Zone Adult parody featuring a time-stopping watch. Also seems to have mind-control elements in it.

Two of a Kind [F] (C) **

Stars John Travolta and Olivia Newton John. Angels from heaven are fooling around on earth for some reason, and of course, they can freeze time. Some decent scenes.

User Friendly [A] (X) {*}

Very disappointing film about a robot woman built by two guys. The "robot" does not act robotic at ALL. Another woman pretends to be a robot to trick a woman trying to buy the real robot, and SHE'S more robotic than the robot, and not by much.

Venus Descending [F] (X) ***

A couple of aliens are searching for a book. In this clip one of the aliens has a immobilization device and uses it on the other, then a few moments later it is used on her.

Village of the Damned [H] (H/SF) **

Kids hypnotize people instantly. Lots of good scenes for hypno fans. Near the end a woman is hypnotically frozen while trying to rescue one of the kids.

Voodoo Academy [A] (H) -

While this movie mostly deals with men being turn into dolls, there is one woman turned into a doll. Overall, the movie is reported to be "so bad, it's good".

Waiting for Guffman [A][F] (C) -

In this hilarious mockumentary, Parker Posey and a few others perform an android type dance on stage. She freezes and maneuvers around like a robot. It's short, but worth it for Parker.

Wanda, The Sadistic Hypnotist [H][M] -

This movie has an interesting opening shot of a series of hypnotized women posed as nude statues.

Warlock III: The End of Innocence [M] (A/H) **1/2

A fairly poor movie, but approx 1 hr 6 mins in there is a scene where a cute young blond is transformed in to a porcelain doll by the Warlock. He slowly walks over to her frozen form and smashes her.

Westworld [A] (A/SF/H) *

A futuristic wild west amusement park populated by robots, including female robot hookers. Several scenes of robots in various states of repair.

What Planet Are You From? [F] (C/SF) -

There is a scene in the beginning with a hot hologram chick frozen while sitting at a table. Toward the end of the movie, an Annette Bening hologram is frozen in mid-sentence. It looks good.

Wicked Waxxx Worxxx [M] (X) -

Strange wax figures from a museum come to life to have their way with anyone nearby. Lots of mannequin posing.

Wishmaster [M][S] (H) {**}

A brief scene of a woman turned into a mannequin, and later, a woman transformed into a glass statue. Unfortunately, she blows up.

Women of the Prehistoric Planet [I] (SF) {*1/2}

Astronauts wind up on a strange planet of scantilly-clad babes. It turns out that one of the babes has her parents frozen in blocks of ice at the back of her cave. MST3K fodder.

X-Men 2 [F] (A/SF) -

There are 2 parts in the movie where professer X freezes people with his mind. Both spots are live freezes. One takes place in a mall, the other in an office.

Xanadu [M] (M&P) *

Wall murals come to life. Later, store mannequins come alive and dance.

Your Kinkiest Fantasies (Re-edited from "F"...And Lots of It!) [A] (X) **

First sequence involves a number of wind-up women. Good start-up sequence, nice wind down. Original release-"F"-has some mannequin posing in another scene.

ZU - Warriors of the Mystic (Magic?) Mountain [I] (?) -

This movie features lots of crazy & highly kinetic martial-arts action and mythical plot (it made Sam Raimi's work look lethargic by comparison). In one scene, the bad "guys" attack a mountaintop temple/shrine, freezing (in ice) all the preistesses in it.
