Weekend Poster Feast 5. Have Negligee...will travel...! Meet Mari Lou... the blonde on fire! Meet Mari-Lou...Once she starts she can't stop... Mari-Lou...Hiway Pick-Up...She Couldn't Resist Men...Any Man! Kathy Marlowe...That Girl on Fire Who Starts In Where Mansfield and Monroe Leave Off!
Just some of the taglines for the wonderfully titled Girl with an Itch (1958), a tawdry potboiler of a b-movie taken from a paperback from the bottom of a squeaky book rack. I really don't know anything about this movie, except that it features Robert Armstrong, who played Carl Denham in King Kongand Robert Clarke, whose been in tons of cheap horror flicks from The Astounding She Monster, The Hideous Sun Demon, and Frankenstein Island. And I really haven't any information on the aforementioned Kathy Marlowe, except that she apparently came out in Phil Karlson's The Phenix City Story, which I remember as a pretty good gritty film about a totally corrupt city in Alabama. The poster has a certain old school prurience that seems innocent nowadays, almost sweet. You can get a fridge magnet with the poster's image. If you're really interested, Something Weird is selling the film in VHS.
