Blazing Stewardesses

I rented out this DVD set with both Blazing Stewardesses and Naughty Stewardesses because I expected some cheap fun exploitation flick with a cast of recognizable names. Something like 1979's 'Gas Pump Girls' made in the 70s that included Huntz Hall from the old Bowery Boys movies, or 1976's Won Ton Ton - The Dog That Saved Hollywood, which brought out a lot of stars from the 30s to 50s.

There are tons of rotten films that seem made for drive-in theater dates during the 1950s through the 1980s. There's absolutely no reason to actually watch these movies because of lack of plot and continuity. There might be a flash of flesh but overall they were disappointing, so you might as well focus on your date in the back seat. But to see actors with 30+ years of film and stage credit to their names take on roles for this crap is flat-out sad. Either the money had to be good or Don Barry, Robert Livingston, Yvonne DeCarlo, and the Ritz Brothers were blackmailed or coerced. These films were so bad that if you have the chance at a convention or wherever to meet the idiots responsible for this mess - seems as though writers John D'Amato and Samuel Sherman are still alive, while director Al Adamson is dead - punch them in the nose.

Me and my friends rented this movie hoping for a mindless fun movie with maybe some cute women to look at. We were horribly horribly wrong. It wasn't until maybe half way through it that we realized what the problem was exactly. Clues : One of the women had the body of a 20 year old but the face of an 80 year old. Boring incredibly long masked horse rider scenes that seem unrelated to the actual movie (maybe we weren't paying enough attention to the plot but you shouldn't HAVE to in a movie like this!) The biggest clue of all was the appearance of the Ritz Brothers. I have not seen any of the Ritz Brother's early work. I had never heard of them before this movie. The Ritz Brothers make several cameo appearances in some of the most disgusting, painful, grotesque "comedy" routines ever put on film. Frankly I'm shocked the other reviewers here thought they were funny. The Ritz Brothers are two very old (VERY) men who just want to entertain the nice people! In the first scene we get to see one of the Ritz brothers bony wrinkly legs, thighs and all. We get to watch them eat a giant sandwich for a long time. The pinnacle of their grotesqueness is when the old Ritz Brother gets scrambled eggs all over his face. PICTURE IT. Eggs dripping down a whimpering old man's face. Does this make you laugh, or vomit? Rent Blazing Stewardess to find out.

Also rent Blazing Stewardesses if you want to see a big fat drunk guy have sex with a blow up doll in a scene that goes on for way too long.

Such a paradox can be found in the film BLAZING STEWARDESSES. Even though this picture has low ratings, there is still much to be gained if one enjoys shotty B movies such as this. From the director's note at the beginning which states that this movie is dedicated to the Hollywood actors of the golden era, to the solid five minutes of stock footage concerning parades and rodeos, to Yvonne DeCarlo singing (yep.), to 30 mph car chases, all the way to the genuinely funny antics of the Ritz Brothers, this movie can be entertaining. Note that the movie does not pick up until about 25 minutes in, so be patient! So, for the average movie renter, I say stay away. But, for the hardcore B movie fan, this is a must rent!

BLAZING STEWARDESSES suggests a T & A movie, but it's a low-budget western which tries awfully hard to imitate horse operas of the '40s. Masked killers on horseback terrorize a western town, where girls mingle with guests at a dude ranch. Former cowboy stars Don "Red" Barry and Robert Livingston have character roles, and Yvonne DeCarlo has a featured role. Best scenes involve The Ritz Brothers (Harry and Jimmy), who offer comedy relief as ranch hands.

If you're looking for something sexy, this will disappoint you, but old-movie buffs and Ritz Brothers fans may give it points for good intentions.

Never before have I contemplated suicide until I saw this movie. It seemed like a skin flick that never got started. This film wasted 95 minutes of my life that I will NEVER get back.
