Raped in the GrassBy: Edward D. Wood, Jr., 1968
Scope and Contents
Publisher: Pendulum Publishers, Los AngelesPhoto Illustrated (b&w)[This Wood novelization of a "film" by D-M Productions, Los Angeles, was likely written from scratch and no film was ever produced. Raped in the Grass is a pre-Hearst/SLA Helsinki syndrome psycho-sexual fantasy. The book concerns two American girls who get captured by guerillas in a Central American country. A large amount of sexual and violent torture is unleashed by the guerillas on the girls who desperately want to leave. Yet, by the end of the pictorial, the American girls realize they have found a new home amidst the sexual degradation in Central America. "A guerilla band of near-wild men and one sadistic lesbian capture two young girls on a trip... a trip that either one of them will ever forget." Page 143: "Carlos, on the ground, as he came to, reached for his injured ear. For the moment, he thought he was back raping the girl on the grass. His ear hurt, his eyes opened. He looked at the makeshift table – to the ankles of his Leader, then he knew although his ass was in the grass, he was not with the broad. The Leader was. He needed another drink... ,He rolled over and could only lick at the remnants of his broken jug. ‘More tequila – more tit!’"]
