Man, I haven't seen this much nudity and so many stereotypes in a long time! Black, White, Rich, Gay, Straight--It has all of them.
Man,could the Gay hairdressers be more flaming? damn. And I have known a few gay hairdressers.
This has all the 70's clichés ever invented and portrayed in this sort of film, but Shaft, Superfly, Dolemite it ain't! LOL.
OK, it is NOT a great movie, It is a low budget cheese fest, yes.
But I really love seeing women in old movies who haven't been Botoxed, Implanted or Siliconed!You know what I'm sayin'? All natural hair, and...well you know.
The clothes are so funky, and it's hard to believe people dressed like that, but styles have a way of coming back around.
I grew up in those days. I was 12 when this movie came out, so I obviously didn't see it, plus I was nerdy, white and un-hip. (Still white and nerdy) LOL! So don't be so quick to over analyze and critique this film, it is what it is, and so are the other blaxploitation films of the 70's.
I love this kind of stuff, even if it is stupid, lame and dumb.
Damn, those women are fine.
Like 6 nude scenes in 30 minutes! Yee haw! I'm a typical guy, huh? Peace!
