Mexican sex comedy
The Mexican sex comedies film genre, generally known as Ficheras film or Sexicomedias is a genre of sexploitation and Mexploitation[citation needed] films of the Mexican Cinema that flourished in the 1970s and 1980s. It is recognized as a collection of usually low quality films with low budgets. Although the films had sexual tones and used double entendre, they were not particularly explicit. The genre is possibly based on the Italian erotic comedies.[1] The popular term for it came from the film Las ficheras, produced and released in 1975, which described the experiences of many women who entertained men at nightclubs.
The settings and plots of these films tended to be simple. Though they enjoyed box-office success and were popular, they came to be considered not the finest examples of Mexican cinema; moreover, they frequently received classification as being unsuitable for minors.
