Review: Giantess Battle Attack

The second of three giantess reviews, this is the second of a two-film franchise, coming after Attack of the 50 Foot Centerfold (2022) As I have stated before, I do not believe there is any doubt that these films are absurdist comedies, thankfully going for the lowest bar and the biggest busts.

This sequel to Attack of the 50 Foot Cam-Girl begins in outer space, on the double planet of Buxomus, which is the “Planet of Girlgantuas.” Five seconds in, and I am already saying “really?” with a smile on my face. These films know their demographics to the T…or Double D.

These Girlgantuans (Buxomusites?) are warriors who, as we see right off, battle each other in MMA style. You know they will end up on Earth and meet up with giantess Beverly Wood (Ivy Smith) at some point, as it is in the title.

Led by the planet’s battle champion, Spa-zor (Kiersten Hall, who was also combative in 2019’s Kiss Kiss), aka Space Whore, the Girlgantuans head towards the land of the huge and home of the Wood.

Ivy Smith

Speaking of whom, things have changed quite a bit, though she is still 50 feet tall. However, Fuschia has reduced to normal size (seen only in expositional archival footage from the first release) and boyfriend Bradley (Eli Cirino, seen in a flashback cameo) is no longer involved when Beverly lost all her money in lawsuits due to the damage caused by her fight with Fuschia. Now she works demolition breaking rocks (with her feet), and has a new non-expanded boyfriend, Mike (Brian Gross, who also starred in director Wynorski’s 2012 Gila!), who owns the construction company.

Also back are the three scientists, Dr. Lana Rhodes (Lisa London, who gets to show more cleavage this time around), Dennis (Frankie Cullen), and Gary (Jaret Sacrey, shown in footage from the earlier film), the latter of whom is also reduced. A friend of Bradley’s, promoter Dennis (Frankie Cullen) however, has a fighter girlfriend, Anna Conda (multi-tattooed and septum-ringed Masuimi Max), who he wants to battle Beverly to gain fame and get rich.

There are some interesting twists and turns in the story as Spa-zor, Beverly and Anna finally get to meet up at the finale. I had a laugh when an oil rigs goes off and makes this the equivalent of another fetish, women fighting in an oil (or mud) pit. This gives Beverly the chance to say a line that should be repeated often: “Get off my planet, bitch!

Short and brief, the extras on this Blu-ray is the original trailer, and a collection of Full moon coming attractions (half the same as in the earlier film).

At one point in the film, during a particular jiggle-fest, director Wynorski breaks the third wall ala Woody Allen in What’s Up Tiger Lilly? (1966), to discuss the humorously gratuitousness of the “action.” However, it should be noted that most of the female actors here are actually quite accomplished in their own rights, be it as entrepreneurs, singers, influencers, and/or beauty queens – one was Miss Minnesota and Miss Bikini Model 1999/2000 – etc. Respect).

It would not surprise me if a third film in the series was forthcoming at some point.
