Amid the cultural chaos of 1968 and armed with a budget of only $70,000, producer/director/cinematographer Russ Meyer transcended sexploitation by crafting this bosomacious melodrama (Time Magazine) about racism, communism, bush pilots, draft dodgers, and a ferociously free-spirited wife named Vixen (the incredible Erica Gavin of BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS and CAGED HEAT). Despite attempts at censorship that included one of the first-ever X ratings and 23 separate U.S. prosecutions for obscenity, it became one of the year's top-grossing movies, forever transformed independent film, and remains the creative template for Meyer's unapologetic vision of American cinema. VIXEN! is now scanned in 4K from the original negative restored by The Museum of Modern Art with 3+ hours of new and archival Special Features curated by Severin Films in conjunction with The Russ Meyer Trust.
