Boy, does director Dale Berry cover all the deliciously trashy grindhouse cinema bases in a simply astounding kitchen sink manner: We've got a ridiculously tawdry and eventful narrative that piles one crazy incident upon another (poor Diane even gets sexually assaulted by the same lecherous motel clerk twice!), hot babes romping around in their undies or less, a groovy score that combines jazz and surf-rock with right-on happening results, an unflinchingly sordid tone, a satisfying smattering of bare female skin, a wild and exciting climactic foot chase and shootout with the police, and a colorful array of scummy characters who include a predatory lesbian, a pathetic strung-out junkie, and, best of all, a creepy woman-beating pervert named Ernie. Buxom Lorna Maitland struts her sizzling stuff as a sexy stripper while the always dependable Bill Thurman contributes his usual sturdy performance as a tough detective. A scuzzy marvel.
