Blonde on a Bum Trip

I was also a writer at CashBox and was friends with Jackie Braveman and Eddie Adlum. This film opened at a theater in Nassau County, Long Island and was confiscated by the Nassau County Sheriff the same night.

I had a couple lines as a detective in the film and glad my name was not in the credits.

I do remembver Eddie telling me the distributor would not take the film unless they went back and addes more "black and white and skin". Jackie did that and that's probably what got the flm confiscated.

The poor overdubbing is just too distracting, and the acting is amateur at best. The best thing is the psychedelic songs, which sound so good with the horrendous audio throughout the film :) even the applause after a completed song sounds so hollow without voices (just clapping recorded later?)

Anyway, there's nothing really happening, just scantily clad peo- erm, I mean girls, who go wild.

I'm not gonna give a rating, but I will say I do not recommend this.

An innocent young blonde gets involved with some hippies in 1960's New York City and almost overdoses on drugs. Cheap exploitation flick features some nudity, lots of drug use, and music by The Vagrants and The E-Types, whose song "Put The Clock Back On the Wall" is played over and over to hide the bad acting. Film is shot in a harsh, grainy black and white. The films sound is terrible. To think this was so shocking back in 1968. Worth viewing as a historical artifact, not much else.
