A light hearted fun Elvis movie....
If you haven't seen this movie I would recommend you give it a try! Elvis is very funny in this movie his great sense of humor really shines through. The story line is also very close to how generous he was in his own life. The song performed "Let your self go" is very entertaining. I also enjoyed watching the chemistry between Elvis and Nancy!
The only reason I didn't rate this 5 stars was because I personally didn't enjoy all the racing scenes. Defiantly in my all time top ten favorite Elvis movies!

Bring your groovy selves on home and let yourselves go!
Everything about "Speedway" is as groovy as Elvis always performs. I just love the way Nancy Sinatra performed the song "Your Groovy Self" and the way she moved around as she sang. Nancy's really hot! Bill Bixby was quite hilarious. Elvis' song "Let Yourself Go" is super cool. The scene where Elvis sang "Your Time Hasn't Come Yet, Baby" to the little girl was kind of cute. And the sounds of those roaring engines in the race were very much electrifying. Some of the plots really did show off Elvis' real-life self as the generous and giving person he was. He buys for a friend and his 5 little girls a brand new station wagon, also helps out a troubled waitress with her upcoming wedding. Unfortunately Bixby's character messes everything up for Steve Grayson (Elvis), by betting Steve's money on the horses, instead of paying for those things Elvis bought for his friends, and besides makes an outrageous tax claim form for Steve, with deductions such as perfumed record albums and [money]for air? Oh yes! Lucille Ball's "Mr. Mooney" was kinda funny too and was excellent for the role of the head IRS agent R.W. Hepworth. When I first saw this movie in the theater I cracked up at the "He's Your Uncle, Not Your Dad!" sequence. It was funny it was cool. Just everything about "Speedway" is superbly exciting. But what else could you expect out of a movie that starres the king of rock and roll! And lets not forget Nancy Sinatra who is more than just the icing on that cake. It's not everyday you see such a gorgeous tax collector. I give this film a perfect A+. It's just loaded with the stuff! "Speedway" is an honest to goodness must see.

A cool movie!
ENTERTAINING film with a GREAT looking cover! LETTER-BOXED and restored! I love reading all of the negative reviews here on AMAZON...shows it takes all kinds of people to make a world. These films were made for ELVIS fans and to be ENTERTAINING...I have no idea how someone could even compare ELVIS and NANCY SINATRA to BEN and JENNIFER LOPEZ?

Ok guys, This is a groovy, cool and sexy movie
If Austin powers were really in the groovy 60's. he'd be in this movie. with that said, yeah Elvis was embarrassed here and there but you can't get over how incredibly cool Elvis is in nearly every scene. Sinatra is a bit miscast cus Elvis blows her out of the water. but she adds a little somethin sweet here and there but Elvis is still the victor.

Bill Bixby you guys!! he is great in this movie as Elvis's manager and he is funny from start to finish and his chemistry with Elvis is the best i've seen from an Elvis movie (Ever) not overestimating.
"Your time hasen't come yet baby" is great and "let yourself go" is very cool and Elvis is enjoying himself as if he knows he's making cool look good again since pappa sinatra.
this is one of if not the best Elvis movie during the last 3 years of his films next to a dramatic and very surreal Change of Habbit.

Your Groovy Self
OK, people, we are talking 1968 here. Granted, this movie isn't War and Peace, but was never intended to be. Elvis, by the time this movie was filmed, knew there was no chance of being considered a serious actor, although that was his dream.

The chemistry between Elvis and Nancy Sinatra is very evident...on and off the screne. Great friends and they had a blast making this movie. I recall Nancy saying they would ride around the MGM lot on a bicycle built for two when tour buses would come around and the heads would turn. That sounds like an enjoyable experience to me. The film is enjoyable, funny, and for its time, the racing scenes are action packed.

It doesn't get any better than Nancy singing "Your Groovy Self" with the blonde hair, [lightened around her face more for the movie] and those smokey, almond eyes. WOW!

BTW, Nancy was the only performer to have a solo song included on a Presley album. Impressive and enjoyable.

SPEEDWAY, is a fast paced, fun loving, Elvis flick that just happens to "tickle me". Sorry, couldn't resist. ... Read more

A True Guilty Pleasure!!!
I haven't seen the original 'Angel' but, you don't need to see it to enjoy this sequel! To sum it up,"The cover says it all"! The movie opens with a great sequence that cuts back and forth between the nightlife on Sunset Blvd. and an ambush by drug dealers on an undercover detective that lives with her poor unsuspecting parents, with the song "Why?" by 'Bronski Beat' setting the score. Angel's cop/friend, who was responsible for getting her off the streets (from the prequel), is killed (in a really gruesome death scene) while responding to the call which causes Angel to avenge his death by going back to the streets to find out who was responsible. Along the way, she meets up with some "colorful" characters (played by Roy Calhoun, Susan Tyrell and a character named "Johnny Glitter"), she also rescues an out-of-town girl from turning to the streets, and the movie climaxes with a showdown at the historic Bradbury building (Downtown, L.A.). The movie ends with the characters literally walking off into the sunset with the song "Blind Vision" by 'Blancmange' playing in the background. Excellent soundtrack!
I wasn't old enough at the time to see it in the theatre so, I saw it on T.V. which means it was cut to hell so, I'm afraid the video might have some graphic scenes. If it's offensive,just fast forward or close you eyes.;-)

It's definately not an Oscar winner (so I give it 4 stars) but, let's say, "It's a Good Read".
Looking at how much it's currently selling for,...why not?. If it was on DVD, I'd buy it in a flash!

P.S. Did I mention the acting is pretty bad? (But, at least it's sooooo bad that it's fun to watch-if you know what I mean.)

Good follow Up to Angel
If you liked the original "Angel" then this really is a great follow-up. It has most of the same cast except for the wonderful Donna Wilkes is unfortunately missing. The story is really good, too. Just the right mix of humor, suspense, and drama. I watch it frequently. ... Read more

'Cute' movie
If you are looking for a serious movie with depth and substance, this movie is not for you. It's a fun & light hearted T'N'A movie about a girl by the name of Kim that inherits a drive-in theatre from her late grandfather. The theatre has been running in the red for a while, so what's a girl to do but enlist the help of her bodacious girlfriends and change the uniform to string bikinis. The acting is pretty bad, but this just adds to the charm of this movie. In conclusion, if you are looking for a movie that isn't too heavy, then check out this direct-to-video classic!

Good but expensive
There's a drive-in movie theater that a young woman has inherited. She wants to keep it open and the female employees wear bikinis to attract customers. There is a lot of gratuitous nudity. There is a washing scene with garden hoses and buckets and sponges that is really an Oscar winning show of bodacious bodies.

OK T&A Fare
An OK little T&A movie, with the familiar plot of girls taking off clothes to save a business. The girls are cute, and it's always great to see Michele Bauer strip off, but there are better nudie movies out there than this one.

No story, hot girls
There is no story. Only 2 erotic scenes, but the girls in the bikini's make it up. Good in it's genre

1 hot scene
As far as plot goes, its not there. But there is a scene where a couple makes love in a bed of film that is highly erotic and the fact that she earned 2 of the 3 stars I gave this film for her body may explain my fondness for this movie ... Read more

brad lake is the man
what a movie.....the acting is terrible the women are very unattractive apart from tammy parks and the plot and story line is awful, thats why i loved it. I watched the movie for the first time and laughed my head off, especially at the large fonts brad lake uses to seduce the women on line. The acting is so funny especially when he is having sex with that blonde girl and his wife is down stairs and he goes shhhhhhhhh...I mean it makes me wonder why he cheated on his wife she is the only decent looking woman on the film.Anyways if you like cheesy movies then please buy this you wont regret it itll be an instant classic and youll be quoting lines from the film till the day you die such as, "good game" or "your hotter than the fire baby" or "i wouldnt mind her serving my balls" or "there was this chick in vegas named julie she was the girlfriend of the mobster veto popadompali he practically owned the strip it was tough game messing with one of vetos girls but julie just wasnt any chick she just turned veto and his boys to the da got em a state sentence put him and his boys in the slammer and speaking of slammer thats just what i wanted to do to julie," ahhhhhh priceless

Fantastic
As erotic movie goes, this is got to be one of the best I ever seen. I mean the plot is average at best, the wife got murdered by the sister to get the husband into bed is a bit daft. but no one watches these films for the STORY don't they. they watch it because of the erotic quailty of the film, and there are plenty of nudity scene than 10 other film in the soft eroctica genre put together. from start to finish, women can't seems to take their cloths off, GREAT I say.

Damn
Julie Strain and the sex goddesses in this flick will wet your willy, boys. This is gratuitous sex in it's soft-core entirety.
Julie's scene is so hot... she sucks her finger like it's something else and her boobs... yeah. You'll see.
Really convincing for simulated sex.
Good stuff, the best for the genre.

horrible
saw this on accident when i was younger...wrong video in video case. it was a boring movie about a baseball washup and his flings and then there's the whole bad acting and horrible story line. it's pretty [messed] up.

mm mm good....
I have watched this movie many times, and it always give me a light headed feeling as all the blood rushes south in my body!!
No plot to this movie really other then what can we do to get these women nude....but what were you expecting?
This movie gets an 8 on the strokability scale. ... Read more

Cool comedy thriller
I really liked this movie. Justin Berfield is always great and Robert Carridine was a likeable Dad. My favorite was the humorous villain, Mr X played by the British star Martin Jarvis. I loved him in Titanic and Buster and here he was different again - keen to dominate the world, just like a James Bond bad guy. Great fun - all our family loved it.

Justin Berfield
Justin Berfield Defenatly adds Major Pionts, cuz he is soooo Hott! This movie is only good cuz of him!

it's okay
The best thing about this movie is that Justin Berfield is extremely good-looking and funny. Otherwise it was sorta corny. Check out "Mom, can I keep her"; Justin is in that one too.

Justin is a diamond in the rough
This seemed like a typical young kid vs. bad guys movie. But having Justin Berfield as the star made it a 5 star film. He has such good comic timing. The scene in the middle was classic---where Justin was fixing macaroni & cheese and he was singing and dancing in his uncle's kitchen.   

Typical kiddie fodder
Were it not for Justin Berfield starring, I probably would have passed on this one. He is one of my favorite young actors though, so I gave it a view. The story was good and there was plenty of action; but the rest of the actors were only so-so. (Especially the girl who played the lifeguard; she seemed bored.) If you're a fan of Justin's work---check out the TV show "Unhappily Ever After". Justin is way funnier than his older brother on the show. ... Read more

Bad Script Sinks Sexy Thriller
This just-about-average erotic thriller is about as thrilling as having a hammer dropped on your head. Is the movie about: A) the problems of fidelity in the lives of an American couple? B)The pitfalls of gambling? C) The decadence of the wealthy? or D) lotsa wild, yet soft-X, sex?

I couldn't tell. All I was sure of was that the movie was a bare-bones rip-off of "Indecent Proposal", with a pointless mob subplot to prop up the unraveling story. Granted, Tane McClure and Gabriella Hall are hotties, and the sex scenes do have some steam, so the movie isn't a total disaster, but ultimately, there's just not much to recommend here.

good

Not enough Julie K Smith
Not the worst way to spend 90-ish minutes. Lots of very nice girls take their clothes off with a plot a see through as your Grandma's pants.

The highlight of the film (for me) was Julie K Smith. She does about three sets, which is about a billion too few. With short blonde hair and full breasts, the girl just steals the show.

Would I buy it? I already have.

If you want acting and story like The Shawshank Redemption, you'll be dissapointed. If you want gorgeous women with very few clothes on, you should buy this.

A multi-gifted beauty who can do more than sex.
I wanted to see this movie because of Kimberly Kelley. I first saw her in the Andrew Stevens starrer, "Nighteyes 4." She had two love scenes with newcomer, Casper Van Dien. One at a poolside and another in bed. After seeng this movie, I had a crush on her. So I wanted to see her again in "Midnight Tease 2." I was surprised to see Kelley dance so well in a strip club. She even sang a soul song in the soundtrack. Her lovescene with the lead actor was not as long and torrid as her performances with Van Dien. There is a twist in the plot, at the end when they reveal who the killer is. This film also stars Julie K. Smith, Tammy Parks, and Tane Mclure as the villain. ... Read more

"Is this the reason Poitier took a hiatus from movies?"
This is without doubt one of the worst movies ever made! Wooden acting,poor picture quality and a soundtrack that made my teeth grate. Being a Poitier fan and language student, I got it for the foreign language subtitles. A die hard movie buff might want to see it for the early wasted performances of some fine actors,including Raul Julia as a "Hippy". I often disagree with the critics for lacking a sense of fun, but this turkey deserves all their venom. If you decide to see it, I suggest you use earplugs and just read the subtitles. ... Read more

Visible Dud!
This movie is bad, bad, BAD. My kids loved it.

Features: A plot that wobbles between ludicrous and nonexistent. Actors who learned their craft during an elementary-school production of "Mister Molar Meets the Tooth Decay Bandits." Props purchased from Goodwill on half-price Saturday. And a budget apparently smaller than Ben Affleck's dental-floss bill. It all adds up to a movie whose quality has reached rock bottom and started to dig. If there's a child in your household between five and eight years old, however... hey, it's a lot more entertaining than watching Thomas the Tank Engine for the 10,800th time!

As noted, describing the plot is superfluous, but for the sake of completeness: Dad Andrew (Daran Norris) and 12-year-old son Doug (William Meyers III) move into house formerly occupied by crazy inventor, who's left behind a gadget. Doug, playing with gadget, accidentally turns dad (surprise!) invisible, after a few preceding misadventures, including summoning a "Baywatch" bimbo (Shayna Ryan) to his bedroom (not as naughty as it sounds; she thinks Doug and his friend are aliens.) Naturally, Doug breaks the machine right after Dad's mishap. Meanwhile, Dad's in the middle of a big architectural contract and a budding romance with Doug's teacher (Mary Elizabeth McGlinn), set up by Doug), so the invisibility thing is a tad inconvenient. The plot features a number of physical-comedy moments, none convincing in the least, but all hugely appreciated by our 7-y.o. critic. Doug's desperate to get his dad back in the pink, but all his efforts (including an utterly unbelievable shoplifting/jailbreak sequence) flop - until crazy inventor's long-lost twin brother happens to fly in from South Africa to save the day. There are a couple of side-plots involving bad guys stealing Dad's architectural plans and a wacko neighbor (Charles Dierkop) who thinks space aliens are taking over. (He may have a point -- the actors are pretty Stepford-ish.) Of course everything turns out okay in the end. Even the neighbor gets his just desserts at the hands of his long-suffering wife (Vicki Skinner), who has probably the funniest lines in the movie.

Kids will enjoy the plot's premise (what 12-y.o. boy has NOT daydreamed about turning Dad invisible, at least when it's time to take out the trash?) Adults can laugh themselves silly at the many unintentional howlers, such as the invisibility gadget (a vegetable steamer on an old record-player turntable - I am not making this up), or the low-budget location sets, which consist of two, count 'em, two building exteriors (I'm still wondering how both Dad's architectural office and the library can continue to be in the building that gets blown up halfway through.)

All in all, it's as bad as they come, and that's okay. Incidentally, we watched "Independence Day" the same evening as "Invisible Dad", and I'm hard-pressed to say which is more ridiculous. At least "Invisible Dad" doesn't pretend to be serious cinema. ... Read more

It's Swell, Cats.
HELLCATS contains a lot of the typical bad movie-making decisions that have entertained and pained MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 fans for years. Most of the so-called action is centered on a group of angry bikers. They get into fights, become engaged in terrible musical numbers and don't really do much of anything else besides party. While some MST3k movies are simply entertaining in their awfulness, HELLCATS is not a film whose faults could really enjoyed without the commentary, because the biggest flaw of this movie is its sheer boredom.

This movie is one of the most grotesquely padded films that I've ever seen. MST3k often mocked short instructional films that were no longer than 30 minutes, and if HELLCATS had been reduced to that length, it would still have been too long. Everything seems to take to hours to occur and absolutely nothing is worth the wait. Episodes like this can sometimes spell real trouble for the viewer, because if the jokes from Joel and the bots aren't up to the usual standard then there is no obvious entertaining badness to distract us. Thankfully, HELLCATS managed to coax some hilarious one-liners out of the gang, and we're spared the thought of having to survive the film without the needed lifeline of wisecracks and puns.

The DVD is packaged with the original trailer, which interestingly would give one the impression that this film is all about the various women who hang out with bikers and their naughty and taboo adventures. Shockingly, the movie is absolutely nothing like the trailer. The DVD also comes with the uncut, unedited original version of HELLCATS, which just goes to show that the people at Best Brains, Inc. are not only funny folks, but also tireless philanthropists, dedicated to wiping insomnia off the face of the Earth.

One of the worst MST3K episodes...
Forgive me for saying so, all you MSTies out there like myself, but isn't this movie just a little TOO bad? I mean, even if Joel and the Bots were in their best-ever form (which they absolutely aren't in this episode), would it really be worth it to sit through this cinematic atrocity? Well, maybe if they were as funny as in Pod People, one of their best, but still when a movie is just too bad, it seems like the writers have too much to work with and just work on the obvious (e.g. bad music, long senseless scenes, corny dialouge, no plot whatsoever). But as in Pod People, where its bad, but its production values are just good enough to have the MST3K writers sweat a bit, the episode seems to be much better than usual.

I would provide some of the best lines from this episode, but there really aren't any. By the by, stay away from CATALINA CAPER also, for similar reasons.

At their best in season 2, Hellcats delivers non-stop laughs
Until I discovered MST3K I'd never even seen a "B" movie "biker" picture, but the writers and cast of MST3K always seem to be at their best when making fun of these low-budget stories about sociopaths and societal drop-outs. I was overjoyed when I found out that Hellcats would be offered on DVD as this and the other season 2 gem, "Wild Rebels" are to me among the very best MST3K episodes ever. The stupidity of the characters and dialogue is funny all on its own, but the cast of MST3K raise the humor level many notches and never let up on the poor direction, acting or plot for a second. They even manage to make the music in this film fun and you'll be humming "the bike song" after the closing credits.

One cinematic footnote regards a misidentification I believe of the film's director, Bob Slatzer, who is actually the stockier fellow of the two main "gangsters" and not the thinner one pointed out by Joel and the 'Bots during the picture. I discovered this when I saw Bob Slatzer interviewed in a documentary about Marilyn Monroe. But, this minor error does nothing to diminish the quality and quantity of the humor in this episode, which is so dense with jokes that you'll catch something new each time you watch it. Buy this now!

one of the first great episodes
If you're like me, and i think many people are, you got in to mst3k too late. you caught it on it's switch to sci-fi, and feel like you missed out on the comedy central episodes which old school fans love so much.

well first of all let me say that i now have every single episode of mst3k, and i claim categorically that the sci-fi era is better. but the comedy central episodes (which are the only ones that are available on dvd) are still great, and hellcats is a good one to check out in your effort to discover the older era of mst3k.

hellcats was aired early in the second season, and is one of the first episodes that is truly hilarious (season 1 was not as funny as later seasons, i hate to say). the skits in this episode are flashbacks, clip-show-style, to skits from earlier episodes, so they provide a nice smorgasbord of mst3k humor. the movie is bad and the music is funny, which we all know makes for great riffing from joel and the bots.

so sit back and enjoy "hellcats, careening down the street..."

p.s, if you're confused by all the ross hagen/"chili peppers burn my gut" references in this episode, check out "sidehackers" which is available in the mst3k collection vol. 3 boxed dvd set.

Motorcycle mamas on a highway to Hell!
Ah, the 'other' Ross Hagen motorcycle movie. Reading his bio on IMDb it says at one time he ran an acting school...oh bruther! Well, while Hellcats was certainly prime for the Mystie treatment, a better one to watch is Sidehackers, another Ross Hagen/motorcycle epic.

Ross is a some sort of law enforcement agent who goes undercover to infiltrate a goofy biker gang after his brother is killed. For some strange reason, Ross teams up with his murdered brothers' girlfriend to achieve this. I will admit that after awhile, I just stopped trying to figure out what was going on in the movie, and just focused on the humor provided by Joel and the 'bots. I did notice a lot of dancing (cough, cough), beer swilling, and general activities you would associate with a psuedo 60's hippie biker gang. Probably the funniest part in the movie for me was when the leader of the biker gang is challenged to a race by the leader of another biker gang. We're treated to about five minutes of watching the people watching the race. I mean, we don't even get to see the race, only hear the reving of engines as the riders supposedly race around. I'm not sure why they couldn't have included some footage of the actual race, being that this is a movie that's heavy on the whole motorcycle thing, but whatever...it wouldn't have made the movie any better.

While this isn't my favorite episode, it's still really funny and worth getting if you're a fan. Not a lot of extras on this one except the trailer and the flipside of the disc has the un-mystiefied version of the movie. ... Read more

For Angel Grace, this opportunity is too good to pass up, and she enlists the help of a doctor who promises her great endowments with a secret beauty enhancement program.

The 50 foot woman grows 60 feet taller!!!
No she is not The 50 foot woman but this Centerfold is bigger, badder and better the the other one!And look! now she has someone to fight about who has a bigger bust than the the other in the middle of Hollywood! I did enjoy this one better then the other movie.The reason i bought this movie and probbobly why all the other men who bought this movie was becuase of the picture on the case,it was a picture of J.J. North in a ripped up white bikini (witch didn't hide much) peeking behind a skyscrapper while a fire truck was at her feet.I think this movie deserves five stars because well, just look at the case.

great campy movie
this is a funny great b-movie, with lots of beauful women,and a huge jj north as the sexy centerfold. the ending is pretty good, for anyone who likes b-movies, this is a must buy.

JJ North is Incredible!
JJ North is one of the most beautiful women to land in any B-movie in the last twenty years. It's heartbeaking this stunning actress has not done more. This movie is what B-movies are about. It's fun and filled with incredibly pretty women. If you're looking for Oscar winning acting look elsewhere. If you want silly fun, you shouldn't miss this. My only complaint is that there wasn't nearly enough of the dark and sexy Nikki Fitz.

The Most Colossal Catfight Ever Filmed!
J.J. North stars as Angel Grace, a drop dead gorgeous model who is insecure about her looks. She goes to a doctor who has developed a formula that will enhance her natural beauty. She drinks a certain amount every day, to help give her an edge over her competitors for centerfold of the year. This comedy is a thinly veiled cautionary tale about the dangers of drugs. As the effects of the beauty formula wear off quicker, Angel increases the dosage. By taking an overdose, her body grows to gigantic proportions. Jay Richardson as the humorous Hugh Hefner-like magazine publisher, and Tim Abell as the photographer, conspire to keep her from getting an antidote. They figure they can make millions off her as a colossal centerfold. This comedy is also a thinly veiled indictment of the way men exploit women. The luscious Tammy Parks plays Betty, Angel's main rival for centerfold of the year. When she finds out about Angel's beauty enhancement, she consumes a massive amount of the formula and also grows to massive proportions. The catfight between these two gorgeous giants is the highlight of the movie. This comedy is really a thinly veiled guilty pleasure!

Babe-a-liscious!
Normally I would give a disc with absolutely no extras (except for 3 trailers for other Corman movies) 2 stars but I gave it an extra one since the price is so right. J.J. North is a babe beyond belief in this ripoff...er uh, I mean tribute to 50's sci-fi flicks such as 50 Foot Woman. REALLY bad special effects mixed with mostly forced perspective shots make for a fun flick with cameos by other favorites of mine like Nikki Fritz and Michelle Bauer. The catfight between the two female giants through downtown LA is a hoot and gives us the best line from the movie: "My God! Look at the size of those T*TS!!" ... Read more

best movie ever...seriously the directors are smart as hell
this is possibly the best movie ever...good story line...good action and most importantly soft porn what more could you ask for, the only thing that could top it is actual porn. i mean some nice puntang would be nice. but the best part of this movie is the pointless but nesecary bouncing in the stream and washing eachothers boobs....what a great movie you should buy it!

Stupid.... but then, it's supposed to be.
"Check out the hooters on those babes!" One line from the movie notes. It pretty much describes the whole movie. Laughably bad, with silly special effects (including the Tyrannosaurus Rex from the Carnosaur trilogy). If you like a movie that's bad on purpose, give this one a look. Definitely NOT for children though.

It needs to be a campy porn movie.
First of all, we need penetration in the sex scenes. Showing simulated sex just does not do it anymore. Who care's if they get an x-rating. Hasn't anyone ever thought of having a good plot with the sex before. Anyway, when making a movie like this too, the girls need to be constantly getting both tops and bottoms ripped off by themselves (love the catfight, best part of the movie), cavemen, and/or dinosaurs.

Better on paper than on film.
I'm sure if this movie had been written in a book, it would've caught my interest more. Not soft porn by any means, and definitely not hardcore. Dinosaurs are cheesy and the set looks like the hills of California. However, given the funds I'm sure weren't available, it was a nice laugh.

My favorite movie
I first saw this movie on USA's up all night and thought it was pretty cool. I thought my small son would like it since it had dinosaurs in it. I couldn't find it in the video stores but one day I found it at BlockBuster. Luckily my son wasn't there when I first went to watch it! They must have really cut it to be able to show it on USA (maybe not after some of the mess you see on there now). I like to rent it from time to time. ... Read more

At least they tried
What this is is an attempt to edit two seperate episodes of The Virginian tv series into one story. The story line of two brothers (Bronson and Marvin) and the seperate paths they took would have worked better had there been smoother editing. It becomes most painfully obvious during the final five minutes. Beyond that, if you would like to see both actors in their earlier years, rent if possible.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
I'm still wondering how in the world Hollywood's two of the best stars got into this terrible mess! What a waste! Charlie & Marvin fans should stay away from this one. Regardless of the reviews that I read from IMDB I bought this DVD last year & I'm still regreting it. Take my advise, keep this away from your collection.

Too expensive for an EP tape.
I'd advice anybody to stay away from this tape, even Bronson-fans. Don't get me wrong; it's a fine little TV-western, Bronson's good as always, it's a good cast in general, but the picture quality is not very good. -But that's just a minor problem. In fact, the tape's in the awful EP mode. -And at such a hefty price, too. Very disappointing, indeed. Shame on you "Goodtimes Home Video", for releasing something like this, at a price the double of what it's really worth. It would be nice if "Amazon.com" could note the speed-mode of the tapes. ...

Meanwhile, Dad's in the middle of a big architectural contract and a budding romance with Doug's teacher (Mary Elizabeth McGlinn), set up by Doug), so the invisibility thing is a tad inconvenient. The plot features a number of physical-comedy moments, none convincing in the least, but all hugely appreciated by our 7-y.o. critic. Doug's desperate to get his dad back in the pink, but all his efforts (including an utterly unbelievable shoplifting/jailbreak sequence) flop - until crazy inventor's long-lost twin brother happens to fly in from South Africa to save the day. There are a couple of side-plots involving bad guys stealing Dad's architectural plans and a wacko neighbor (Charles Dierkop) who thinks space aliens are taking over. (He may have a point -- the actors are pretty Stepford-ish.) Of course everything turns out okay in the end. Even the neighbor gets his just desserts at the hands of his long-suffering wife (Vicki Skinner), who has probably the funniest lines in the movie.

Kids will enjoy the plot's premise (what 12-y.o. boy has NOT daydreamed about turning Dad invisible, at least when it's time to take out the trash?) Adults can laugh themselves silly at the many unintentional howlers, such as the invisibility gadget (a vegetable steamer on an old record-player turntable - I am not making this up), or the low-budget location sets, which consist of two, count 'em, two building exteriors (I'm still wondering how both Dad's architectural office and the library can continue to be in the building that gets blown up halfway through.)

All in all, it's as bad as they come, and that's okay. Incidentally, we watched "Independence Day" the same evening as "Invisible Dad", and I'm hard-pressed to say which is more ridiculous. At least "Invisible Dad" doesn't pretend to be serious cinema. ... Read more

brad lake is the man
what a movie.....the acting is terrible the women are very unattractive apart from tammy parks and the plot and story line is awful, thats why i loved it. I watched the movie for the first time and laughed my head off, especially at the large fonts brad lake uses to seduce the women on line. The acting is so funny especially when he is having sex with that blonde girl and his wife is down stairs and he goes shhhhhhhhh...I mean it makes me wonder why he cheated on his wife she is the only decent looking woman on the film.Anyways if you like cheesy movies then please buy this you wont regret it itll be an instant classic and youll be quoting lines from the film till the day you die such as, "good game" or "your hotter than the fire baby" or "i wouldnt mind her serving my balls" or "there was this chick in vegas named julie she was the girlfriend of the mobster veto popadompali he practically owned the strip it was tough game messing with one of vetos girls but julie just wasnt any chick she just turned veto and his boys to the da got em a state sentence put him and his boys in the slammer and speaking of slammer thats just what i wanted to do to julie," ahhhhhh priceless

Fantastic
As erotic movie goes, this is got to be one of the best I ever seen. I mean the plot is average at best, the wife got murdered by the sister to get the husband into bed is a bit daft. but no one watches these films for the STORY don't they. they watch it because of the erotic quailty of the film, and there are plenty of nudity scene than 10 other film in the soft eroctica genre put together. from start to finish, women can't seems to take their cloths off, GREAT I say.

Damn
Julie Strain and the sex goddesses in this flick will wet your willy, boys. This is gratuitous sex in it's soft-core entirety.
Julie's scene is so hot... she sucks her finger like it's something else and her boobs... yeah. You'll see.
Really convincing for simulated sex.
Good stuff, the best for the genre.

horrible
saw this on accident when i was younger...wrong video in video case. it was a boring movie about a baseball washup and his flings and then there's the whole bad acting and horrible story line. it's pretty [messed] up.

mm mm good....
I have watched this movie many times, and it always give me a light headed feeling as all the blood rushes south in my body!!
No plot to this movie really other then what can we do to get these women nude....but what were you expecting?
This movie gets an 8 on the strokability scale. ... Read more

Funny take off on Star Wars and low budget T&A!
Great for Star Wars fans! Every cute girl in the world moves to Hollywood, then an earthquake knocks the whole state into the ocean. We're left with normal looking girls. Evil Ronald Reagan type guy decides to smuggle in "pleasure droids". Han Solo-type bounty hunter played by Mark Singer has to find the "pleasure droids" before it's too late. His boss makes him work with a plain-jane droid technician girl, and their quest takes them to this Jaba The Hut guy, to this cantina with a cat-woman stripper, to an under water city. It keeps making fun of the kind of fake-chested girls in bad T&A movies, because the "pleasure droids" may be beautiful but they are dumb. The plain-jane girl is smart, and Mark Singer falls in love with her. I laughed alot at the jokes, and the space battle was pretty cool, too! ... Read more

'Cute' movie
If you are looking for a serious movie with depth and substance, this movie is not for you. It's a fun & light hearted T'N'A movie about a girl by the name of Kim that inherits a drive-in theatre from her late grandfather. The theatre has been running in the red for a while, so what's a girl to do but enlist the help of her bodacious girlfriends and change the uniform to string bikinis. The acting is pretty bad, but this just adds to the charm of this movie. In conclusion, if you are looking for a movie that isn't too heavy, then check out this direct-to-video classic!

Good but expensive
There's a drive-in movie theater that a young woman has inherited. She wants to keep it open and the female employees wear bikinis to attract customers. There is a lot of gratuitous nudity. There is a washing scene with garden hoses and buckets and sponges that is really an Oscar winning show of bodacious bodies.

OK T&A Fare
An OK little T&A movie, with the familiar plot of girls taking off clothes to save a business. The girls are cute, and it's always great to see Michele Bauer strip off, but there are better nudie movies out there than this one.

No story, hot girls
There is no story. Only 2 erotic scenes, but the girls in the bikini's make it up. Good in it's genre

1 hot scene
As far as plot goes, its not there. But there is a scene where a couple makes love in a bed of film that is highly erotic and the fact that she earned 2 of the 3 stars I gave this film for her body may explain my fondness for this movie ... Read more

Not great, but not AWFUL! A "GROANER"
I had the opportunity to see this film BEFORE it was released.
I got so lucky because the female lead in this movie, Sandy Brooke, was my STEP-SISTER at the time, so the whole family was anxious to see it. I still have the PRE-RELEASE version on tape.

I DO wish that the makers of the film had had a little bigger F/X budget. Some of the F/X shots in this movie came from "BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS". Others from the TV series "BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25th CENTURY". I really hate it when film makers do things like that.

I have to agree with "A VIEWER from North Carolina", STAR SLAMMER had the potential for camp, but didn't quite make it. HOWEVER, I do NOT think it's awful. It's a good movie if you want to have a few chuckles. As I said, it's a "GROANER", but that doesn't make it AWFUL! (I say that with love Sis, just in case you read this review)

Some of the fun of this movie comes from knowing a few of the BEHIND-THE-SCENES secrets. For Example: the actress who portrayed the Warden of the "STAR SLAMMER" supplied all her own wardrobe!

just plain awful
this is a very boring film. It has potential for camp, but doesn't utilize it. Is this the same Fred Olen Ray who directed the classics "Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers" and "Bikini Hoe-Down"? Where is the humor in this flick?

It has the look of sci-fi T&A, but practically no T or A.

The acting, as might be expected, is horrible (althouth the lead is pretty and engaging), but so is the dialogue and plotting. What is John Carradine doing in his cameo? ... Read more
