Curio Cult Piece

Very strange movie directed by a teacher who never worked again, despite making a movie for no money that grossed over eighteen million!

They must have duped Lyle Waggoner to appear in this film which features full frontal male gay nudity. A far cry from Carol Burnett, which I think he was still in when this was made.

I'm not 100% sure what this movie is about. It appears there's a group of people who like having sex with newly dead people and so they embalm them while still alive and hang around them in the nude.

And then there's this blonde who is not in teh group but seems to be attracted to it in some way that has to do with her dead father.

Apparently some of the dialog was so bad that after the movie was shot they just pumped up the music so you can't hear what's being said!

The acting isn't horrible (although the blondes screaming is WAYYYYY over the top) and the directing isn't all that bad either considering this guy had zero experience. Many of the actors had a career into the 90's on TV and film, although nothing major. Some of them died in their 50's.

In the end the movie falls flat because it's so poorly written. There are some shots of early 70's L.A. that are fun to watch and maybe if you watch this with some friends who ike bad movies you'll like it more than me.
