Alien (The Director’s Cut)
Posted by Lesbian Movies
For several generations of teen girls, Ellen Ripley was the ultimate shero. Stuck in space with a ravenous monster and nothing but her wits, Ripley single-handedly survives the carnage, defeats the relentless terror and heads for home. Or does she? This suspenseful classic sci-fi horror movie is one of the American Film Institute’s 100 Best Films of All Time. Scary good!

Crafty, ruthless and charismatic Irma Vep is not a vampire in the classical sense, but she and her gang of jewel thieves are very much psychological bloodsuckers as they con, seduce and steal their way across the upper-crust landscape of Paris after WW1. An absorbing silent-era classic in serial form. A must for any serious [...]

Chris and Tory are olympic-caliber athletes. Their relationship moves over the span of three years from one of mentor to competitors and lovers. The best sports dyke movie ever. Both Chris (Mariel Hemingway) and Tory (real-life olympic athlete Patrice Donnelly) are hot, hot, HOT.

Posted by Lesbian Movies
Lovable frump Sister George is a huge TV soap star. But when the studio kills her off, butchy, pushy and loudly abusive actor June Buckeridge (Beryl Reid), who plays Sister George, goes spinning down the drain of miserable, raging alcoholic self-pity. Superbly acted, this film offers a cartoony but engrossing slice of 60’s lesbian life.

Posted by Lesbian Movies
This Lillian Helman classic deserved its Oscar nominations. Karen (Audrey Hepburn) and Martha (Shirley MacLaine) are the headmistresses at a snooty girls’ school. When a spoiled little brat gets rightfully disciplined, she tells a malicious lie that devastates both teacher’s lives and embroils the town in scurrilous gossip.

Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! No, it’s not that cult favorite, but you’ll be wishing it was when these two hokey ’script? we don’t need no stinkin’ script!’ excuses for stringing together a bunch of pseudo-lesbian scenes overheat your VCR. Another fun stinkeroo from the great golden era of 1969 dykesploitation flicks, “Kitten In A Cage [...]

Long before Carrie, these witchy girls get very, very bloody. Are they really in league with the devil, or just reflecting the craziness around them?
Babette/Monique, My Love

Two films, the same basic story: sexy starlet sleeps her way to the top with a whole lot of women. Pushing the boundaries back in 1969, this lesbian sexploitation flick is sure to please fans of the genre. Nudity, sexual situations.

The 1969 erotic classic about two french boarding school girlfriends still wears well, and speaks to the innocent awakening sexuality of all young lesbians.
