Review by Bobby Nashville

I think the best way to describe Salon Kitty is: Springtime For Hitler, but naked. I am not joking folks, this really is a Nazi musical (minus the comedy but plus the nudity). At least in The Producers, the stage play was so bad that actually turned into a funny comedy. Unfortunately Salon Kitty isn't bad (or good) enough.

Yes, Salon Kitty from the controversial director Tinto brass (All Ladies Do It) is a bizarre musical set in Nazi Germany. The plot is insane and meandering, but basically it boils down to this: Nazi brass forces a gal named Kitty to run a brothel for them. There is a minor subplot about blackmailing Hitler, but for the most part this entire movie entails women walking around half dressed (and Nazi men dressed to the hilt).

It sounds campy but its really not, its really kind of boring after awhile, not nearly as entertaining as Tinto Brass' All The Women Do It.

Skip Salon Kitty, a movie that sounds bizarrely entertaining, but ends up disappointing.
