Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Listonixio Fresh and Exciting

Izzy Adkins The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Coventry Now, what exactly is this supposed to be? Let's pose the same question in multiple-choice format, shall we? Is "Trader Hornee": A – a comedy? B – a sex film? C – a jungle adventure? D – all of the above. Surely the creators will try and convince you it's a mixture of everything, but the painful truth is that "Trader Hornee" eventually ends up being nothing at all. I appreciated the spirit and joyfulness of everyone involved in the cast, but after barely 20 minutes or so, the film has little else to offer but sheer boredom and forced chuckles. Private eye Hornee (his name is an obvious running joke) and his playful assistant are hired by a bank director and sent to Africa to look for the heiress of a wealthy couple of adventurers that went missing 16 years ago. For you see, during their quest to capture a rare white gorilla, the girls' parents were killed by a tribe of savages and she was never heard of again. Hornee, his assistant, some greedy relatives, a gossipy journalist and a scientist still on the lookout for the white gorilla form quite the unusual expedition crew and discover that the girl is still alive, but not exactly willing to return to the civilized world. The plot, and clearly also the title, is based on a 30's movie called "Trader Horn" that I haven't seen but heard very good things about. The concept of a 'White tribal queen' also got used in several cheap and sleazy (Italian) cannibal flicks, but – at least not to my knowledge – never in a sexy comedy. Well, the genre classification is debatable, since the film isn't very funny or sexy. All the ladies – especially the jungle queen – look delicious and show a fair amount of flesh, but these moments are too brief and practically always second to lame jokes. For early 70's standards and, moreover, Something Weird traditions, "Trader Hornee" isn't nearly naughty or rancid enough and simply pales in comparison with "The Adult Version of Jekyll and Hyde", "Space Thing" and "Sinderella". The S&M loving cousins are cute and the scenes with the white gorilla actually stalking the team provoke some genuine laughs, but overall the film is a waste of time.

The_Void This crappy sex comedy was apparently based on a classic movie with a similar title. That fact doesn't make any difference, however, because as a porn film, a spoof, a jungle adventure or anything else; Trader Hornee is a crappy film that doesn't work on any level. The plot is just an excuse for the main characters to venture off into the jungle and have sex and focuses on the hunt for a so-called 'White Gorilla'. The film is laden with a load of humour and none of it works very well at all and succeeds only in being irritating. There is a fair bit of sex and nudity, but it's not all that good in context and the fact that there is a hell of a lot of better porn films than this one makes watching it even more of a chore. To the film's credit, the production values actually aren't that bad and the set design is decent enough - although this isn't all that good considering that most people won't be watching this film to admire the sets! This film might appeal to fans of cheesy soft-core porn, but such people could definitely find better examples than this one. I don't recommend anyone wastes time on this film.

haildevilman For a jungle film, the sets were a bit too perfect. They looked like they were filmed at a local park.The scenes at the camp were also laughable. Someone built a tree house or two in their backyard and made a few scenes there.Now for the good points; The ladies were HOT. Typical jungle film there. The jungle lass wearing provocatively styled animal skins. And the ladies in the safari party wearing REALLY tight shorts. Do women really dress that way on an expedition? The film was obviously padded. It seemed like some of it was added on at the last minute.The film didn't stink. But see it only if there's nothing else.It wouldn't be x-rated today, but it's still a tad naughty.

imapoa I saw this one many years ago at a drive-in; part of a double or triple feature. I probably shouldn't go into details where the original sexual content is concerned, but it would still be X by today's standards! Part of the comedy/sex angle involved the villainous redhead's scoping out potential sex partners while her male cohort was plotting crimes. I don't think any Academy Awards were being considered for this cast or film, but Trader Hornee had some watchable goofiness and explicit sex scenes.I purchased a DVD of this not too long ago, and regrettably had to send it back for a refund. All of the sex had been edited out, and I think other content was removed as well. Having seen the REAL one, I couldn't accept the "updated" version. Trader Hornee, edited and sex-deleted, is like The Exorcist without the turning head and the green puke!!!
