Time for a visit to the Dragon Art Theater and I've picked a double features who is a perfect example of what would have played in a second rate adult theater in 1972.
Of course a visit to the theater wouldn't be one without Donn Davison welcoming us...
Now it's time to sit, watch and enjoy...
The title say pretty much all you need to know about the film... Kim (Rene Bond) comes to visit her long time friend Barbara who is now a working girl (why not be paid for it if you do it free anyway).
This is a cheap one with some known people (Rene Bond, Rick Lutze and Adam Ward) but the cast is mostly unknown people and thank God they stayed unknown (the girl who play Barbara have a nice face as long as she keeps her mouth closed).
It's mostly ugly people having sex (here I talk about Barbara's clients) with some funny dialogue and a ton of awful instrumental version of known songs (The Sounds of Silence, Hey Jude!, What a Wonderful World, etc.).
An average production but with a young Rene Bond before her surgery so I can't say that it was a waste of time.
This one have more ambitions, at least they tried to do a movie with a narrative. It's about a woman named Julie who works at a low rent strip club until she meets a guy who brings her at Vegas to live the good life.
It doesn't take long for her to see that this guy isn't a nice man when he brings her at one of his friend home. He wants to have sex in front of his friend and the girl with him to give them a show like they do, she refuses and he just say fuck it and go for a threesome.
After a week without seeing him she decides to find him to leave him for good. She finds him at a restaurant with an Asian girl. The girl calls Julie later to meet her to talk about the guy, in fact she asks Julie to kill him and she accept... now be ready to laugh because the Asian girl talks like a text to speech software and believe me it's hard to take that discussion seriously as it should be.
Julie is unable to complete the mission but the guy show up dead anyway (the story is a series of flashback told by Julie and she said how the man was killed even if she can't know it). After hearing all the story the detectives, at least I think they are, tell her that she is free to go.
Even if I said that they tried to make a real film it doesn't mean that it isn't a cheap one. There are a lot things that happen with no reasons and aren't that clear, maybe in place of padding the running time with the couple watching a film at a porn theater they could have used that time to fill the holes in the story. The acting is in the pitiful category but the actress who play Julie isn't too bad compare to everybody else in that film. It was a little bit better than Kim Comes Home but don't expect any known people on the screen.
You can get this one on DVD-R from Something Weird Video.
