Hammer’s films evince many of the characteristics of cultural feminism. Dyketactics demonstrates the centrality of the female body to her practice, not only on-screen but also in her quest to develop an embodied way of both making and viewing films. With Dyketactics, Hammer also sought a way of representing lesbian love-making that did not deploy the visual and narrative codes of mainstream, heterosexual pornography. In this regard, the film contributed to the 1970s feminist project of developing a women’s erotica. In other 1970s films by Hammer, we encounter still more hallmarks of cultural feminism, for instance, ritual actions that are explicitly linked to matriarchal cults of the Goddess (e.g., Moon Goddess [US, 1976, made with Gloria Churchman] and The Great Goddess [US, 1977]) and visual metaphors that associate women’s bodies with biomorphic shapes found in nature (e.g., Multiple Orgasm [US, 1976] and Women I Love [US, 1976).

It is no surprise then that Hammer’s 1970s films “can be seen as embodying the cultural feminist position,” as Andrea Weiss puts it in her 1992 history of lesbians in cinema. Richard Dyer characterizes the films in the same way in his survey of gay and lesbian filmmaking published two years earlier. (Greg Youmans)
