Russ Meyer's films seem to all take place on another world. A world where every woman has giant breasts and is a sex-obsessed nymphomaniac. Sort of a science fiction wonderland where everyone gets laid. People even bleed in different colors for some reason in this particular flick. This was Meyers return to BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS type material and it's quite the hodge-podge of craziness served up with a kinetic energy that can't be denied. This was to be Meyers' final giant breast epic and it seems like he was trying to jam every single idea he ever had into this one film. Using super quick cuts and some amazing shots I think he succeeds in conveying his manic fascination with monstrous tits and sex in general and the whole thing plays out like a long trailer for something incredible. There are a couple of problems with this film though. The plot for one never really gets going due to the insane pace of everything. There's also a really strong anti-homosexual vibe that runs throughout the film. The main character only gets off fucking women in the ass and this is deemed a terrible problem that he must be cured of. There's also the ridiculous insane gay dentist character that stops at nothing to fuck our main character in his ass. Fortunately it's hard to take anything very seriously in a movie that features humor that hovers around the 5th grade level. Not for everyone(the endless ballyhoo dialogue just wears you down after awhile) but if you have a high tolerance for stupid sex comedies it's worth checking out.
