Interesting facts

Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands aka Dutch Wife of the Wasteland and The Dutch Wives of the Wild, originally released as Horror Doll , is a 1967 Japanese pink film written and directed by cult filmmaker Atsushi Yamatoya, starring the first "Queen" of pink film, Noriko Tatsumi, and with music by the jazz pianist Yōsuke Yamashita.

Background

Director Atsushi Yamatoya was one of the group of writers on Seijun Suzuki's Branded to Kill (1967). Yamatoya had co-directed the pink film Season of Betrayal (裏切りの季節) with Kōji Wakamatsu in 1966, but Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands was his solo feature film directorial debut.

He directed a few more pink films such as The Pistol That Sprouted Hair (毛の生えた拳銃) for Wakamatsu's production company, but found writing to be more to his taste. He often wrote anonymously for Wakamatsu during the 1960s, and was later regularly credited for his script work at Nikkatsu on their Roman porno series. He revisited the sex-doll theme in his script to Chūsei Sone's Roman porno Love Doll Report: An Adult Toy (1975).

Yukihiro Sawada, who worked with Yamatoya on the script for Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands, also went on to work at Nikkatsu, where he directed such Roman porno's as Sex Hunter: Wet Target (1972). During the filming of Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands, lead actors Noriko Tatsumi and Yūichi Minato worked together on director Ario Takeda's pink film Love's Milky Drops for Okura Eiga studio. This film used the same sets as Yamatoya's.
