An action-packed slog

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The very long title here already tells us that this is the fourth entry from the West German "Schulmädchen" film series and it was far from the last. This series is closely connected to the German sexual awakening in the 1970s and director Ernst Hofbauer worked on several of the others too. The runtime is between 80 and 90 minutes and this is the usual too. The worse about the film may be the opening monologue as we find out how this film takes itself so seriously, but it has absolutely no right to do so. The quality here is abysmal at times. You cannot really blame the actors and actresses as they are obviously no professionals, but using amateurs to make this look close to reality and authentic entirely backfired in this very case. This film is maybe a decent watch if you are really horny as the girls in here all look like models, which is also not realistic and you get to see full frontal at times, breasts almost always from every female character. It is once again a collection of smaller stories that have no real connection with one another, so you could also call it a collection of short films. The topics are really controversial for the 1970s (incest, rape, race) and that is probably why people were curious about it too. It certainly could not have been because of this being a cinematic achievement of any kind, because it is far far away from that level. Actually, there is absolutely nothing interesting in here except the clumsy takes at controversy. Highly not recommended and this series went far far longer than it should have.

Schoolgirl Report #4 (1972) *** (out of 4) Fourth film in the popular German series once again passes itself off as a documentary on teenage sexuality but in reality it's just another excuse to exploit sex and nudity, which is never a bad thing. We get another large group of stories ranging from a high school girl seducing her teacher to a sexual offender passing himself off as a school doctor in order to see girls naked. Also on hand is a black woman in a racist school who gets raped by some girls who want to see why men would want her. Another sequence has Euro legend Christina Lindberg playing a poor girl who has to share her bedroom with her older brother and soon finds herself having sexual fantasies over him. These stories are just some of the new ones on display here so if you enjoyed the first three in the series, as I did, then you should enjoy what's offered up here. The perverted nature is certainly on high alert as the stories here are all rather bizarre. We have the ones, like the stuff with race, that tries to be serious. We also get some that are so over the top that you can't help but laugh and the one with the doctor is the perfect example of this. We also have a nice comical story where girls start a hooker ring just to raise some money for their friend. There's no question this thing is sexploitation at its finest but if you're going to be easily offended then it's probably best to stay away. For others just looking for cheap fun then this fourth film once again delivers the goods. Fans of Lindberg are certainly going to want to check this out even though of all the women here she's probably dressed the most. There's no question she's a beautiful woman and that's never a bad thing.

The 1970's German "schulmadchen report" films seemed to have been consigned to the dust-bin of history only a few years ago, but more recently, perhaps due to the current "barely legal" fad in American porn, many have been resurrected on DVD. But while the modern American "barely legal" porn movies (from the admittedly very little I've seen) either feature disturbingly young looking girls barely over the age of consent or the typical 25-year-old porn starlets with over-sized breast implants and tattoos very unconvincingly portraying "teenagers", the schulmadchen films are a very happy medium. The girls are fresh and nubile girl-next-door types, but don't really look underage. The most famous actress in these films, Cristina Lindberg, was in her early 20's then, and by now, of course, is old enough to be the mother of someone like me. (If Lindberg WERE your mother though, would you EVER stop breast-feeding?).Like the rest of these films this consists of a number of sexy vignettes supposedly based on what real-life German teenagers of the day were up to. In the first one, an attractive senior is flunking math. So what can she do to get her strict male teacher to give her a passing grade? Hmmm? In another vignette a creep guy disguises himself as a doctor so he can give "check-ups" to naive teenage girls home alone (which would never work in America where doctors don't make house-calls even if you call them). This gives one horny young couple an idea of how they can get together right under their parents' noses. Then there is a sensitive story of interracial relationships and gratuitous shower scenes. Finally the most controversial story has the aforementioned Crisina Lindberg playing a girl who's in love with her brother. Despite the appalling lack of taste here, Lindberg as always is the quintessential actress for these kind of films since she had the fresh, innocent face of an 18-year-old virgin and the voluptuous body of a burlesque era stripper.I would recommend this for all the perverts out there, of course, especially as an alternative to wasting your money on more modern-day (and more morally dubious) "barely legal" porn. But movies like this will also certainly appeal to ANYONE who enjoys undraped females, as well as people like me who might watch sex films more ironically. Movies like this may have "driven parents to despair" in 1970's Germany, but they're sure a whole lot of fun today.

This is the only installment in this 10-film (I think) series of social-issue sexploitation I've managed yet to see. The English dubbing is hilariously bad, the soundtrack music by Gert Wilden is groooooovy and some of the interior furnishings on display are very cool like a TV set inside a white plastic shell. This is basically frothy and lighthearted in style even though it deals with subjects like gang rape, racism and incest. Swedish cult starlet Christina Lindberg appears in the most controversial segment as the girl who lusts after her brother.
