Editorial Reviews

Perhaps the ultimate softcore exploitation film of the late '60s, this staggeringly popular 3-D sex comedy stars Christina Hart and made over $6 million, quite a sum in those days. Dealing with the sexual adventures of a group of pretty stewardesses during an extended layover, the film features LSD hallucination sequences, lesbians, Vietnam veterans, go-go dancers, rock music, and a surprising murder-suicide just to keep things interesting. The 3-D quality isn't all that great save for a sequence set in a carnival house of horrors, but there's a fun cast including exploitation veterans Nancy Ison (Cindy and Donna) and Donna Stanley (Take It out in Trade) and enough nostalgic tomfoolery to make it worthwhile. Directed by Alf Silliman Jr. under the pseudonym "Alan Silliphant", the film was originally rated X, then re-cut for an R, and finally released again years later as a porno film with hardcore inserts of completely different actors. Co-star Monica Gayle was in dozens of exploitation films like Sandra, the Making of a Woman and Switchblade Sisters, but also appeared as Kate Marshall on TV's General Hospital.
