Cinderella (1977)

*** (out of 4)

My rating certainly comes with a bit of nostalgia but I'm sure there are many out there who will go into this movie with memories such as mine. I remember this film quite fondly from my teenage years as my friends and I stumbled across it on Cinemax one night. We also saw bits and pieces of it but we'd try to catch it every time it was on. I'm not sure if we ever watched the film from start to finish but we'd quite often get into fights about the hottest girl or which one we'd most like to be the Prince with. Seeing the film after all these years certainly brought back a lot of fun memories but the film itself held up rather well. The simple storyline has the Price having a party thrown for him so that he can pick a bride but it's pretty much just an orgy. Cinderalla (Cheryl Smith) gets cleaned up by her fairy "godmutha" and he also gives her a snapping vagina (a different word is used in the film). This softcore effort from producer Charles Band is certainly a very memorable film and once you see it you're bound to have scenes stuck in your mind for life. I'm sure seeing it has a teen had an impact on several male viewers but even outside all the nudity there's just something charming about the film. I think the most credit must go to Smith who does a wonderful job with the role of Cinderella. It's not Oscar-worthy but it's fun and she comes off so sweet that you can't help but believe her in the part. The supporting players are all pretty good as well with Yana Nirvana and Marilyn Corwin excellent in the parts of the ugly step sisters and Kirk Scott as a dumb Lord. There are several musical numbers that are decent but nothing great. What makes the movie are all the softcore moments and this is certainly what attracted us to the film many years ago. I don't think more than five seconds go by without some sort of nudity and for the most part it's quite erotic whenever it's not trying to be funny (like the scene with the two girls bathing while their father is out hunting a certain creature).

I saw this film at the cinema when it was first released. An adult rated fairytale sounded interesting but what I saw was an absolute gem. A camp comedy musical soft core skin flick - how different is that? I've seen several adult interpretations of fairytales but this beats them all into a cocked hat. Cheryl Smith who sometimes uses the name Rainbeaux in other films is on top form playing it straight as a foil to the comedic campness of the other cast members, especially Sy Richardson who gives a whole new meaning to the term Fairy Godmother.

I'm sure you all know the Cinderella story but this one being an adult version, various changes have been made to justify the adult rating. It isn't Cinderella's prowess on the dance floor that so enchants Prince Charming and it isn't a glass slipper that must be the perfect fit. Come on now, this is an adult film, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to work that one out.

This version of Cinderella is probably the most enjoyable fairytale romp ever committed to screen, hilarious, erotic and entertaining. Recommended.

I remember this when I was in High School and I lived in the Philadelphia area, we had a channel there called "Prism" and Friday and Saturday nights they use to show Unrated movies like this and when your 13 yrs old and seeing boobs it's the greatest thing ever. Yes the movie is cheesy but that's the fun of it, everything can't be "The Deer Hunter" I haven't seen this in probably 38 years and I'll probably laugh at it for being bad but movies like this made staying up on Friday and Saturday so much fun as a kid.

I saw this movie, uncut, in a x rated movie house in Little Rock Arkansas in the 1970's. I've seen it since, on some of the premium channels, on cable, in the r rated vcr format. You lose the "in and out" portions of the film, but it makes it a funnier movie. And everyone has seen this film and remembers it by the line, "It's a snapper!"

I thought this was one of the funniest soft-core porn films I ever saw. Of course, you have to have a twisted sense of humour. If you're just out to get titillated, this isn't the movie for you. (I loved the black "fairy" godfather.)
