Why weren't the Thai actors credited? The nice girl number 7, mr Ban -Ki, the two stupid gangsters? Sorry, I forgot to add: the Thai girl in the hotel room, the Thai brothel boss, the two luggage boys at the hotel.

How to run a regular Bavarian hotel, of which there are so many more in Bavaria? Niki Moser (Wolf Goldan) is faced to this problem, and wants to make it a sports hotel with all kind of sport and gymnastic equipment. That costs a lot, but fortunately the mayor (Josef Moosholzer) is willing to help: he will lend him the money under one condition: that Niki will marry his daughter Marianne (a daughter from a relation he had with a woman in Africa). Niki likes Marianne (Scarlett Gunden) and she likes him, but both of them don't want a marriage. Together with his friend Tony Niki is trying to mortgage the hotel and pay back the mayor, so he will be rid of this marriage contract. However, the bank is not willing to give him a mortgage. Then they ask the ministry to help them with government allowances to help tourism flourish. They seem to have success: a high civil servant is coming over to look around and then decide whether the allowance will be granted. When the civil servant Hugo Wiesinger (Herlin) arrives, he is in the company of an attractive young woman, his secret girlfriend, who accompanies him on this "mission". His wife, of course, is ignorant about this, but a jealous secretary tells her the secret. So she is coming over too to see if her husband is really cheating on her. Niki is busy getting guests into his hotel because all rooms have to be booked with guests when the man from the ministry is doing his survey. He only has two guests, a newly married couple, of which the husband is a homosexual who is not very interested in making love with his bride, much to her disappointment. And then: five girls arrive on a holiday (the Swedish girls to whom the title is referring) and of course they get rooms for free if they want to act as real hotel guests. Together with young men of the local brass band who are recruited to act as their "husbands". Of course they are willing to play that role, in every possible way.... One of the girls meets with the gay bridegroom, who, to her great surprise, is her long lost uncle.

When the civil servant comes with the girlfriend in a white sports car, they get out in the meadow for a picnic. In the same time two lunatics escape from the nearby asylum........

The young son of the mayor is secretly peeping in here and there and gives his remarks to the viewer during the movie, and plays a trick on his father now and then. And there is a funny scene with the civil servant and a local hairdresser, who has trouble with his wife about rehearsing a stage play in which she has the role of a woman who meets her lover. Who will play that lover? Would that be a role for a civil servant?

The story in this Bavarian sex comedy is about three men who run a shop in erotic garments and articles. Business is going bad. From their window on the 3rd store of an apartment building they can look into a photographer's studio. The photographer, Charly Braun, only takes photos of nude women for magazines. The three men sure want to be there some time and be close to those pretty nude ladies. When their shop is closed down by the bailiff because bankruptcy is at hand, they decide to have some fun to forget all the sorrows: they attempt to enter Charly's studio dressed up as women. They apply on an advertisement he has placed in the newspaper for an assistant but he only wants female applicants (because nice young men distract him too much: he's gay!). One of them applies for assistant photographer (dressed up as a woman), and the two others offer their services as housekeeper/cleaning lady. All three are hired. Then they stumble upon a plot by a countess who is hiring Charly to take photographs at her castle (regular photos, that's a kind of work he does also but is not often asked for). The countess is trying, together with her husband, to get her nephew locked up in an asylum, pretending him to be a lunatic. So they can get control over his inheritance. The three men/women are very busy with the naked models but also with the bad countess to get everything right again. And Charly does not understand why he is attracted to those three women so much... could it be that he is getting straight?

In fact there is no real sex scene in this movie, only naked breasts of the models in the studio. But the movie has a nice story line, it's one of the better Bavarians together with some others. No beautiful Alpes this time, it's shot only in the shop, in the studio, in the castle and there are some scenes in the streets of the city (Munich?) when some people are chasing one another. And Sauerkraut (heartburn cabbage) is good for getting an erection, did you know that? Also for other things....

A spin-off of the Bavarian sex comedies: East Frisian sex comedy! There are two of which I know, Der Ostfriesen Report and this one. Both are not fantastic but reasonably comedies.

The movie is about a Munich salesman, Alois Pfannstiel, who, together with two associates, Klaus and Tonino, is on a business tour in East Frisia (northern part of Germany, Emden, Aurich). They sell agricultural machineries to the local farmers and manage to sell them machines for harvesting while the farmers are all cattle farmers. So they are very persuasive or the farmers are incredibly dumb. Because there is a prejudice in Germany that East Frisians are slow, also in their mind, you can easily understand that this movie confirms all those prejudices ! They seduce three girls from a village to spend the night with them and Alois Pfannstiel has to promise to the young girl Elke Harms that he will marry her, otherwise she doesn't want to share his bed. Of course he is not planning to do so, he is a married man and his wife owns the business, so he escapes the following morning, together with his friends and they will never see those girls again (so they think). Unfortunately for them, they have mentioned their next stop, Hambourg, to the girls, so Elke's brother, who is very angry about all this, goes after them. He follows them to a Hambourg brothel and plays a trick on them: the landlady and he take away the clothes of the three men so they have to run naked through the streets after their visit. The clothes are sent back to them in a parcel, together with a picture of Elke with the words "In Love, Elke" on it. So Pfannstiel's wife has some very difficult questions for him! However, his associate Klaus has thought up a story: he tells Mrs Pfannstiel that Elke is Alois' illegitimate daughter before marriage. "Because Alois loves his wife so much and they themselves could not have children, he did not dare to tell it to her!" Mrs Pfannstiel is moved to tears and insists getting to know this unknown girl from East Frisia! Now the men have to persuade Elke to join the game and play the part of Pfannstiels daughter. That costs a lot of money because this East Frisian girl is not so dumb at all! But what about her parents Mr and Mrs Harms? Of course Elke's mother has to know Alois Pfannstiel really well if they want to stick to their story!! And Mrs Pfannstiel wants to meet Elke's "foster parents" too, so another big problem to solve! A really mixed-up comedy follows. Surprisingly: the actress Helga Feddersen in a role as "the actress". Many beautiful shots of the East Frisian landscape. And cows are important in this movie!

One of the more mature Bavarian sex-comedies, with a good story-line and no highly unlikely events (except one at the end, perhaps). Also one of the Bavarian sex-comedies with explicit sex scenes in it, more than in others. Aunt Agathe, a middle-aged single woman, arrives in a Bavarian village to help her niece Sissi with her horse riding school, which she inherited from her parents. It's almost bankrupt and rich Aunty is willing to help in her own dominant way. The employees don't like her and Aunty herself, together with her parrot, is not familiar to the horse business: she is upset when a stallion is doing his job with a mare. This is all sin and has to be put to an end! The only farm hand in which she trusts is Waldemar, the cook, but she's not aware of the fact that Waldemar is gay. The other employees are soon dismissed by her, particularly as they play a trick upon her. Niece Sissi is in love with riding instructor Peter, but Aunty has other plans: a bank director she knows is possibly willing to finance the riding school and she invites him over to see the premises, but with the intention of match-making between him and Sissi. But Sissi is not willing to. She secretly meets Peter in a barn somewhere in the wood and seduces him. Waldemar, sent out by Aunty to meet a group of guests arriving at the station, on his way meets a group of girls running around naked in the meadows. Naked, because they were posing for nude pictures. The photographer tried to abuse them so they taught him a lesson. Waldemar invites the girls to the riding school because it's short of employees (because of the dismissal of the rest of the personnel). Aunty approves of it but does not know what sort of girls are entering her service as chamber maids and waitresses. The male guests of the riding school soon find out! (In that part of the movie we see the explicit sex scenes). In the meantime we see riding lessons of the guests with all kinds of things happening. Also the bank director Edelbert finds out what those girls do when he's seeing the premises. The guests have had too much bowl with too much liquor in it, so they are all nude and love making, together with the new chamber maids. He is upset and refuses to invest in this "brothel" as he calls it. He's spending just one more night there and then will leave ! Waldemar saves the bank director that night while the latter is walking in his sleep, however he breaks his little finger doing that. The bank director takes Waldemar to a doctor (who mixes him up with another patient which causes much trouble) and soon they discover they have warm feelings for one another: the bank director is gay too ! In the end, Waldemar knows best and he and his lover arrange that the riding school is saved financially and that Sissi and Peter can marry. Aunty Agathe finally realizes the truth about Waldemar and the bank director: he will not be a husband for her niece. But Aunty herself finds someone to love too...And then all is well that ends well.

A good example of the Bavarian sex comedy and with a reasonably good story too! Two waitresses get the sack from the nightclub they work in because the police shuts the premises down because of the sex show. Both girls go out into the Alps in a white car, owned by the Italian boyfriend of one of them. They have taken the car without telling the owner. In the back of the car they discover little plastic bags with a white powder. Of course they think it's heroin, in reality (as is revealed to the viewer immediately) it's a sexual stimulating powder, imported from Corea.The Italian boyfriend, Borsalino, upset about losing the car with the precious content, gets an order from his angry big boss Calafati to bring the expensive white powder back, otherwise.... He gets after the girls on a police motorcycle (which he gets hold of in an unusual way). The girls stay in a local tavern in the village of Mutzenbach, which has been mentioned to them by the gentlemen in the nightclub. The tavern is owned by a landlord who earns a little extra as a gigolo for rich lady tourists. But his own wife always has to press him because he is very lazy. So they have to hire a help in the gigolo work: a young and handsome Frenchman who has been arrested by the local police and spends a week in jail. They try to seduce the two girls also (who are playing the role of Danish women "because Scandinavian women are more sexy", hence the movie title). In the meantime, two not-so-clever businessmen pass by with the daughter of one of them: these are the two guests from the nightclub the two girls worked in. They wanted to go to Mutzenbach to establish a sort of health spa there, but with the sole intention of committing tax fraud: they expect the center will go bankrupt in no-time, so they can deduct this loss from taxation. The mayor is unaware of this and is willing to give them permission for their project for attracting more tourists, the vicar is against it: this will only mean more sin! An old farmhand then discovers the white powder in the car and thinks it's salt, so he carries it home and puts it into the salt box. But using it on their food, the men soon discover it's something completely different! All are sexually aroused and when the powder gets into the water... In the end, all are lovemaking and Borsalino and his girl find each other back. Fun movie, nice storyline, no highly unlikely things happen (only the really-working aphrodisiac made of a rhinoceros' horn!), a good look at the wonderful landscape. Did the travel agencies perhaps finance those movies? One of the better Bavarians.

A likable movie. The Ostfrisian scenery is nice, you would like to go there and see for yourself. In the genre it's quite a nice one, I think. The jokes about the Ostfrisians are that bad that you can only see it as a joke in itself. People who make such jokes look into a mirror when they see this movie. The scenes with the wedding meal, the firemen etc. are well-acted. The genre taken into account: worth watching. Josef Moosholzer is quite funny.You can see him in several movies of this kind, also in: Hurrah, die Schwedinnen sind da! There is also a second movie about the Ostfrisians: Die Rache der Ostfriesen. A little better still! The movie has been shot in the actual surroundings of Aurich and Norden in East Frisia, and in the village of Nessmersiel I think.
