Plaisirs sexuels au pensionnat

That pretty much describes the style of this tawdry, cheesy, grainy, amateurish sexploitation film. Aren't those old stag flicks better left forgotten?

Most people will be tuning in to see the zaftig Debra Winger romping around in the buff. That she certainly does.

There is a "comedy" interlude about a cat burglar. It stars Dr. Bernie Tupperman, the diminutive urologist from the first Bob Newhart show (aka Vinnie the poker player from "The Odd Couple"), and Officer Toody, reprising his role from "Car 54, Where Are You?". Hey, it's not funny, but at least they get to keep their clothes on.

This movie is probably most famous for celebrity skin in the form of a young and topless Deborah Winger, but frankly that's the least interesting thing about it. This is another warped and completely irresponsible movie about slutty 70's teenage girls (including such luminaries of the "genre" as Janet Woods and Cheryl "Rainbeaux" Smith)except here they're playing (very unconvincingly, I might add) slutty '50's teenage girls. The plot, to use the term loosely, involves five girls at the eponymous slumber party sitting around reminiscing about their "first time". These vignettes are neither funny nor usually even remotely believable, so this movie doesn't really succeed either as a comedy or as a realistic coming-of-age film. It does, however, excel on a level of pure sexploitative trash.

To illustrate, in a scene that even made a 70's sleaze aficionado like myself cringe, one of our randy virgins "loses it" to a middle-aged family friend who catches her reading "Lolita" (great literary allusion that). But then her father catches them and rather than thrashing the guy within an inch of his life like any normal father he dismisses him and instead puts his naked daughter over his knee for a spanking (!) which she apparently enjoys (!!)prompting the other girls to talk about how they too kind of enjoy being spanked by their fathers (!!!). In the movie's defense the actresses are all obviously in their early twenties and not remotely believable as teenagers (or virgins), but STILL you have to wonder what kind of perverts this movie was originally aimed at.

Amazingly, for such a thoroughly disreputable movie, it has an incredible soundtrack of top 50's hits. Not since "The Last American Virgin" have I witnessed such a collision of bad cinematic taste and famous pop music. I don't know what it would say about ME to recommend this thing to anybody, but if this kind of irredeemable sleaze does it for you . . .

Six friends get together at a slumber party and recount the stories of their first intimate encounters. I believe this is Debra Winger's first movie role. Cheryl Smith also stars in this. There's plenty of T and A from the cast. Each of the gals in the main cast are attractive.

Slumber Party '57 is a decent movie for what it is. It's fairly entertaining for it's 89 minute runtime. It's also got a good soundtrack of '50s tunes. You could certainly do worse for this type of movie. I think it's considered a comedy, but I can't honestly say that it's funny. It's basically just a 1970s teen movie.

This is really just a harmless and amusing 70's teen T&A flick that drive-ins were famous for back then. It doesn't take itself too seriously, and neither should you.

For example, for a movie supposedly set in 1957, nearly all the songs on the soundtrack were actually released between 1958 and 1964. Furthermore, the movie being shown at the drive-in, "Cauldron of Blood," didn't come out until 1967! But this movie isn't really about sophisticated things like "details" (LOL). It's about beautiful girls frolicking around, showing off their bodies, and boasting about their sexual conquests. The late Cheryl "Rainbeaux" Smith is stunning as always (though her character never gets as fully developed as the others). Debra Winger (in her first role) is also beautiful. And look for the late "Superchick-turned-astrologer" Joyce Jillson as a carhop! What's not to love?

Slumber party...oh, what´s sweets memories... I have seen it when I had ten years old and I discover the sex during its vision. When the movie finished, I started again... and again. More than five women naked in front of me... and mum and dad will not leave until ten o´clock in the morning... The swimming pool scene... Debra Winger and the banana...the drive-in... All of that excited me me more than every women in my life. I give it an excited, hot and gorgeous ten. Thank you for this wonderful, amazing auto-sex time, Mr Levine. God bless you America!!!!
