Quest of the Delta Nights: So Dowdy
"Who wants to buy a filthy, miserable, diseased-looking slave girl? Who wants to buy this wretched creature? How much am I bid for this sad-looking bundle of fleas and dirt?"
Yeah, this is exactly how NOT to market a slave girl. "Quest of the Delta Knights" is clearly aimed at kids, so slavegirl hottitude isn't an important factor, which I guess is why they went the dowdy route. What I'm surprised about is that the movie starts with a slave auction scene that is apparently set in medieval times. I thought they had serfs, not slaves, in those days, and they didn't sell them but they sort of came with the land.
The slave wears a heavy iron collar, and the auctioneer manipulates the slave by way of a long handle he can easily attach and detach from the collars. I'd want a ten-foot pole for handling people that filthy, too. And latex gloves. And they weren't even invented then. This scene scores between a 2 and a 3 on the hottitudinal index, but it's a LOW 2.5. The index merely specifies "person" identified as a slave and wearing a collar. This is a "wretch" doing the same. Thing is, if she were cleaned up a bit and put in skimpier clothing, she might qualify as a wench. Hard to tell under all those dowdy rags. Even if you were just selling her as a common work slave, it might be smart to clean her up a little so she wouldn't look like she might die on you within days of being sold. It's just good marketing, y'know?
