Vanity having sex with a gorilla?! Who came up with the storyline??That's not even a gorilla. It's bigfoot from Harry and the Hendersons.  "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

She doesn't have sex with a gorilla. That's a big misconception about the movie. She's actually tackled to the floor by her then boyfriend, mainly because he thinks she is in love with the gorilla. She sneaks off to visit the gorilla in a cave alot and the boyfriend follows her there, and thats how he learns about the gorilla.
BTW, the gorilla is the most ridiculous thing. But Vanity looks stunning and so young in the movie. She is naked alot of the time. She's very very thin. And she has the most perfect Canadian accent! On a scale of 1-10, 10 being 'GREAT', I give the movie a 2.I give Vanity a 10 for effort, and a 6 for her acting. She had improved by the time she did Neon City. Her acting was fantastic in that. Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question. RIP Legend. | |

Apples just had a nice tit game, but other than that Vanity was Prince's woman. The shoulda have made babies and pretended they were married. Word to power...
To this DAY I want to purify myself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka...  
Some people tell me I've got great legs... | |

Your're welcomed SoulAlive. Maybe they will release that film on DVD, but I doubt it!  Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question. RIP Legend. | |

Meloh9 said: I know that Vanity did some soft core sexploitation films before she met Prince. But I never knew that she did a film under the name D D Winters called Tanya’s Island where she imagines she is on an island with a gorilla she affectionately nicknames Blue, they have sex, fall in love the whole nine, sounds pretty bizarre and right up my alley seeing that I love collecting obscure films, grindhouse films and b movies and exploitation. I ordered this on Amazon as soon as I read about it but I haven’t seen the film, so has anyone seen this film? It sounds pretty trip out, I found a few pics
[*NSFW added by sos] Beastiality!  How scary! Why in God's name would Vanity play such a degrading role?

I'm a big Vanity fan but yeah I think this is just a bad choice.In general Vanity made bad choices...  | |

yeah that movie was a mistake but she was young and dumb...trying to became famous,at any cost.Alot of artists do crazy things at the start of their careers that they later regret.The funny thing is,Vanity must have liked the idea of being with a gorilla.In 1984,she titled her solo album 'Wild Animal' and the title track is apparently about a beast-like creature on the inside sleeve of the record,she is even shown wearing a black fur costume all over her body.

I've seen it..I found it quite distrubing really...but watchable. But my favorite movie with Vanity is 52 pick up...I thought that was a very engrossing scary movie! | |

Man.. I wished that I'd known you were looking for this film earlier. I could have hooked you up & you would have saved a few bucks. The film looks to have been transfered from video instead of a remastered print. The image quality is watchable but far from DVD quality. I'm a big cult film fan from B-Z grade. LOL I've come to expect that a lot of the more obscure films won't get any special treatment when they get released to DVD. Peace... -K- www.myspace.com/kstrat |

Yes, I loved 52 Pick Up too. Great film.
I also liked her in Neon City, Also Never Too Young To Die (with John Stamos). They had some hot and heavy scenes in that film. When you look at the success of John Stamos and then at Vanity, it's such a shame she couldn't keep it together. Half of Hollywood mess up now and then. But I guess she decided it was too much for her. I still think that if Denise Matthews decided right now that she wanted to come back into acting, she would be snapped up in a second. I could just see her in a TV role like that evil cow in Ugly Betty (played by Vanessa Williams). I could just see her vamping it up!  Her beauty, still to this day, outweighs any one in the business, even now.Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question. RIP Legend. | |

now that I have seen it I may shrink wrap it and send it back and get a refund, I think the version they sent me was cut, I remember reading that when she wakes up from the dream she meets a man with blue eyes, that didn't happen, none of the creepy scenes from the pics I posted are in the movie, I will say Vanity turned out to be a better actor than I would have imagined for an early role | |

what year is this movie from? I'm guessing 1979 or 1980? | |

Saw this movie a loooong time ago. I could be wrong, blue22, but I remember the gorilla went ape and mounted her from behind, thrusting and all of that.
OOPS. I think I ruined the ending for y'all. My bad. Anyway...yeah the movie sucks. I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired! | |

WARNING...SPOILERS.....DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE FILM
OK.Been wanting to dig up this movie to watch again, but really, crazily busy at the moment. Still, had to dig up the movie. Found it. Buried in with old tapes. It's amazing how big those old video boxes were! The trailers for this movie are too funny.... a movie called 'Redneck City', with Leslie Ugumms and Shelly Winters. Really skanky, but kinda funny. Anyway, so the story goes... Abusive boyfriend Breakup Surreal stuff Vanity touching herself seductively (She does that BIG EYE thing that she was known for later on) BTW, this girl has an amazing ass! Body to die for! Vanity mouthing, 'come to me' Lots of sex stuff...reminds me of when she performed later on, same movements Sex with boyfriend Pictures of gorillas everywhere Sea Swimming (This girl is an amazing swimmer and horse-rider) IS THERE ANYTHING SHE CAN'T DO?? Submissive Dreadful acting Lots of anger (she is really good at this, the rest of her acting sucks lemons) Gorgous hair Funniest thing I've seen in ages...SLING SHOT TO GORILLAS ASS! Boyfriend goes looney Cages Rape Gorilla chases her Cathches her from behind as she is trying to get away crawling on stomach And yes...this is when he catches her from behind. But I don't see it as the gorilla mounting her or humping her. They never really show that.They show it catching her and in slow motion she is screaming to get away. It's one of those surreal films where it is up to the viewers interpretation. You have to see it to make up your own mind. But I respect everyone elses interpretation. 
Video goes back in the box & buried again. Never want to see it again! But will save for old times sake. So yes, you are absolutely right, the gorilla thing does catch her from behind. But I myself didn't see it as sex. Then again, this is from someone whose favorite old time film is St. Elmos Fire. [Edited 6/16/07 5:34am] Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question.

Just so I'm clear, it was the boyfriend who raped her inside the cages.
I just wrote 'Rape' in my description, but maybe I should have written Boyfriend rape. And Adisa, if that gorilla did rape her, that is really horrific. I never saw myself as a polly-anna, but maybe I am. I jsut didn't see that horrible and disgusting side of the movie. Beastiality is not my thing. But it is obviously Vanity's, back in the day! She didn't mind doing this movie, or maybe she was hard up at the time. Off topic for a second....going to see Prince in August at the O2 in London...Totally excited!. Genius is born, not made. Prince is a Genius. No question. RIP Legend. | |

Why did "Hump De Bump" pop in my head, while reading this thread???? "Pedro offers you his protection." | |

Just keep saying to yourself it's only a dude in an ape suit(who probably wanted to cut a hole in the suit and do Vanity right there on the set). |
