Tickling Machine - Questions


Anyone know who that naked woman on the tickling machine was supposed to be, in the scene where Jerkov makes his escape from the lab? Some say it was Dale Ardor, but the hair's all wrong, as well as, (ahem) other attributes. Much smaller than Dale's.

What is she doing there? Is there a deleted scene to explain why this is being done to her?

If he's supposed to be one of the good guys, why does Jerkov just leave her there being tortured?

What was the actress's name?

Anyone know where I can get in touch with the director? I'm writing an article on the film.

of all the scenes that make absolutely no sense you question this one? nobody cares about this one.

You sure that's not Dale being "tortured"? I always assumed it was, although the print is so blurry I really can't tell. I figured Wang was tickling her into submission so she'd marry him (after all, after first refusing she does show up in bridal veil --- and nothing much else -- later on). As for Jerkoff just wandering off and leaving her on the machine, what the hell, maybe he figured with a universe to be saved a little tickling wasn't worth worrying about. He could always come back for her later.

I assumed she was part of the experiments Dr. Jerkov was hired by wang to do. I mean at the begingin he was talking about all the sexual importants that came out of such acts, i just figured he was doing for a purpose

I met Death today. We are playing chess.

My copy shows the girl's face close up and it is not Dale. I have no idea what the scene was about unless it is explained in the uncut version. Mine is only the edited 68min. version. She was hot, I would have liked to see more of her.
