The Perfumadas are three criminal ladies led by Alberto Rojas, a cabaret owner. This could have been a sexy cool crime comedy; instead, they go off on a million tangents (presumably just to find more excuses for full frontal nudity), so it ends up an incomprehensible mess.
Alberto Rojas is a cabaret owner who also serves as a "Charlie" for a criminal version of Charlie's Angels. The three ladies are Lyn May, Grace Renat and Hilda Aguirre.
The criminal trio with Rojas holds a family at gunpoint.
Las Perfumadas have made the front page, and they continue to confound the police.
A huge fan of Hilda Aguirre; honestly, the only reason I selected this movie. I was disappointed to find she doesn't figure into the story much after this point.
Grace Renat gets into a bathtub - the first in a parade of pubic hair in this film.
Hilda Aguirre does go to bed with a guy, but it's so dark; not even worth a look.
The three criminal ladies dress up as panhandlers and reach into cars to steal purses. And this is really where the film jumps the shark. Because, for whatever reason, it stops being about Las Perfumadas (with an exception of a blip here and there). WTF?
We take you to Rojas' club where three naked ladies are sold for auction.
So we go to the hotel rooms with each of these three ladies as they pair up with the man who purchased a night with them. (You can see how this has completely derailed from the perfumadas story).
Rocío Rilke is the first up for bid.
Doris Pavel is second.
Silvia Del Valle is third.
This guy can't get his thing to work. (insert laugh track)
Rojas takes three of his girls.
There's a reason Rojas was called "caballo"
Just a random nude scene featuring Gioconda
Finally back to Las Perfumadas as they bust up a wedding.
Hilda Aguirre used to be in a relationship with the groom at this wedding - but the story goes nowhere because this film keeps forgetting it's about Las Perfumadas.
Mireya Cantú is forced by her shitty father to strip at Rojas' club.
Rojas can tell this girl is innocent and not the stripper type; but lets her do it.
The time for her first performance has arrived...
But when she finally takes it all off, she cringes with embarrassment and runs offstage.
Pedro Weber 'Chatanuga' does his comedian shtick.
Rojas is convinced to help the poor girl out.
But the "help" shames the father and he throws Mireya Cantú off the roof!
The father gets his just dessert when his wife stabs him in the back. If it seems like Mireya Cantú's story doesn't fit at all into this film, you'd be right.
We're supposed to give a shit about Lyn May's broken relationship.
All three ladies die in a blaze of glory as cops fire upon them.
But there's good news as all the money is bestowed upon the cabaret whores. They each do a striptease in celebration. THE END

Double Feature: A much better film which doesn't lose sight of its three criminal ladies is Mama's Dirty Girls (1974)
★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
