What a waste of my time!!!
Please don't spend money on this.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreThis is another '80s sex comedy, from Canada this time, where apparently social mores are a trifle looser. A major plot point features the main character getting together with her one true love... her cousin. That's about the only memorable detail, apart from the main actress's performance, which is endearingly plucky, making her the sexiest of the movie's many ladies, and surprisingly, she does show some skin. Usually the actual "characters" in these movies keep it all on while the movie works as a revolving door for strippers/nude models/porn starlets to come in front of the camera, bare it all (or some) and then disappear. I was glad to see some T 'n A from the only character in the movie you care anything about, the connection you get with her makes it much more erotic.Anyway, the plot is something about a plucky young lady hosting a party for a hockey team with a bunch of hookers to raise money for... something. I forget. The movie fails at showing a convincing party, and is really just a sequence of unbelievably bad jokes and flashes of nudity. It all feels disjointed, you never get a sense of place or scene, and it's pretty hard to sit through.For another '80s boob comedy that does a far better job of showing a party you can actually believe and might like to go to, see "The Beach Girls".
View MoreCasual fans of the early 80's T-and-A comedies (and their close cousins the early 80's slasher horror films) probably don't realize how much the country of Canada contributed to these "all-American" genres. Well, this particular film really wears its Canadian-ness on its sleeve as a group of sexy college co-eds decide (for reasons that eluded me)to prostitute themselves out to a visiting hockey team at a wild party they put together at a rich friend's house. The results are so over-the-top raunchy, they make "Porky's" look like a "Porky Pig" cartoon.While I can't unreservedly rave about this kind of uber-hoser stupidity, there are several things that might make this worthwhile, at least for all the slobbering perverts out there. First, if you like early 80's slasher flicks like I do, you have undoubtedly seen the female Canuck leads--Lenore Zann, Helen Udy, and Wendy Landes--many times. Well, prepare to see a whole lot MORE of them here. Second, there's the very memorable climactic scene which involves the perverted middle-age coach (who'd I swear was in at least one "Porky's" movie) living out his fantasy of the "scary cave", an infantile-Oedipal thing that you really have to see to believe. (I'd personally rank it up there with the "baby carriage scene" in "Battleship Potemkin" in terms of truly unforgettable cinematic moments). And that's not the only queasy quasi-incest on display here. This has the typical innocent male virgin "losing it" to his long-sought-after true love scene, except in this case his "true love" happens to be his sexy first cousin! And while the virgin's moralistic cop father rushes to stop his son and niece from un-forking their family tree, HE gets sidetracked by one of his niece's young friends who takes him to bed and insists on calling him "daddy" (I'm starting to suspect there might be a reason why the Canadians sometimes look a little inbred. . .).I suppose though if you're going to make an unapologetically raunchy, socially irresponsible, dementedly perverted flick like this, you may as well do it right. And this movie, if nothing else, certainly puts the puck in the net in that department.
View MoreThis Canadian-made 80's sex farce is about a young college girl named Annie McGraw (Lenore Zann), who looks like an unrefined Nomi Malone. She works at a restaurant where she overhears famous hockey players talk about their annual New Year's Bash. They usually pay some shady guy named Wenko $50,000 to stage it, but Annie convinces some friends to help sway the hockey team to let them stage the party so they can gain the 50 grand (or bills) as it's referred to, while Wenko tries to infiltrate the party and make it a failure. So we get all the attributes of the 80's (I won't go through the list again, see my other 80's movie reviews) sex film. Some different things: One of the characters, Johnny-O is a straightlaced about partying as Michael Ontkean's character in Slap Shot was about fighting, a man gets his privates attacked by a live lobster, and the guys are watching a scene from the classic Quebecois-made "Scandale". Once again, this was how Polly Ann Costello, who later became known as Nomi Malone, went by the name of Annie McGraw to start her career in the adult entertainment business.
View MoreThis is one of the most enjoyable erotic comedies ever made, while not exactly subtle this really tickles the funnybone...oh and the ladies are gorgeous, not least Judy Foster starring as upperclass snobbish girl. Best line: Elisabeth: Do you want me to swallow a goldfish? The girls: Think bigger....and harder!The wacky storyline revolves around a group of lady students making a buck on hijacking the sexparty for the city's hockyteam, meanwhile the American nephew of one of the girls turns up, with his born-again christian policeman father hot on the heels and a pimp mad about having his job hijacked. Everybody ends up in bed with everyone, lots of "Porky's" style humor. Great score and cast, this is a sadly overlooked gem that I have seen many times. 9/10
