    Low budget T & A movie

    Okay, so this is not the greatest movie ever made. I agree. I must say it had an interesting story line. Although this is not the type of movie that I normally watch, much less purchase, I did buy a copy. Why, you ask. My father played the judge. He died shortly after filming was completed. I was 12 years old at the time. This is the only piece of his work that I own, so I will treasure it. I am still trying to track other works down. He was a commercial actor as well as movies.

    Well, I can at least say that my dad was in a movie with Dennis Quaid.

    WARNING: PG version exists on video!!!

    I first saw this film in 1978 as part of a double feature and again in 1981 as part of another double feature. It was a lot of fun seeing the young actors (Dennis Quaid, Priscilla Barnes, Lou Richards, etc.) working with the older actors (Edward Andrews, Robert Emhardt, Alan Reed, etc.) plus all the young womanhood that paraded before the camera. The older lady (Lynn Cartwright) was also very nice looking. I found this a few weeks ago in VHS form in a thrift store and settled down to watch only to find out it had been edited to delete ALL the nudity (which was the best part of the film). Enough of the plot still remained to keep the film entertaining but be warned there's a PG version out there with an R rating on the package! I gave this an 9 rating for the original version and a 7 for the edited version.

    Cheap American Sex Comedy

    Four randy college clods looking to raise money for life after school decide to pose as sex researchers and open a phoney clinic. They get federal funding and use it to pay college girls for sex under the pretense of producing a study on their sexuality (which supposedly makes it respectable). When they can no longer keep up with the volume of sex they must engage in they become pimps charging other men money to have sex with the girls. It balloons into a million dollar business with bankers, local politicians and corrupt police also profiting. The four clods run afoul of these various powerful elements when they finally decide that the scheme is immoral.

    This 1978 Dennis Quaid movie is pretty lewd. It also has one of Priscilla Barnes' first screen appearances making it another entry in that infamous series known as "Before-they-were stars" but other than that this movie mostly falls flat. At least it has better young actors in the main cast and solid veteran actors (like Alan Reed) in the supporting cast than most sexploitation flicks (which this pretty openly and unapologetically is) and is thus less of an ordeal to sit through.

    Stanley Shapiro who wrote the script for the Doris Day/Rock Hudson movie PILLOW TALK also penned this one.

    From a producers point of view a movie like this is a glowing success in that it performed well as an investment. From an auteur's perspective it is not a complete failure either in that what we see on screen is not completely unwatchable but I can't recommend it and very few critics have.

    It is remnant of a time when some sexploitation and soft-core porn movies were disguised as scientific university case study or instructional films. Other such films like DAUGHTER OF THE SUN, MYSTERIES OF THE ORGANISM, THE NAKED APE and THE HARRAD EXPERIMENT proved lucrative through niche marketing in their time even though they purportedly played like high school social studies movies. This one seems to spoof the mentality of those and of what federal money can sometimes end up subsidizing.
    Nullness

    If you have to choose between watching Buy and Cell or the Seniors, pick the seniors.

    okay, this isn't close to the best low-budget 80's college movie, but i don't think it's all that bad- i think it's a wonderful satire on laisez faire capitalism, and, although not hilarious, it does has some snippits of clever dialogue in that bent. I don't know, compared to this s%#@ that comes out nowadays, I have to like it more.

    Very Low Budget Film

    Group of college boys don't want to leave their college and ask their parents for more funds so they can further their education with other college degrees. In other words, they really want to be professional students and live a carefree live at the expense of the parents or other people. These college guys come up with some wild ideas concerning the complete cooperation of plenty of females as well as, a nutty professor who is studying the sex life of an insect. This is definitely a sexy comedy with plenty of nudity and this film pulls no punches at a certain religion and peoples deep beliefs in a Higher Power. However, it is a comedy and you have to view it as a big joke to have been produced and directed. Dennis Quaid and Priscilla Barnes gave an outstanding performance.
