Blazing Stewardesses

The most amazing thing I found out about Blazing Stewardesses is that this is a sequel film. I can't believe that Naughty Stewardesses created a demand for a sequel.

I can only imagine what the other film was like, this one falls just short of pornography. In fact I've seen porn films that have a better plot line.

Connie Hoffman, Regina Carrol, and Marilyn Joi are the stewardesses who really believe in full service flights, especially on this charter flight that former B picture cowboy Robert Livingston has hired. He's running a dude ranch and he's bringing in gambling to really spice the place up.

Yvonne DeCarlo is a brothel madam and Don 'Red' Barry is also on hand in this film. The girls wind up going there where there is an elaborate sequence involving a blowup girl, the kind Bud Bundy was razzed about on Married With Children. I've seen better humor at frat parties.

The two surviving Ritz Brothers are also on hand as general all around help on Livingston's ranch. What a come down they and the rest had in doing this trash.

The story such as it is involves the hijacking of Livingston's gambling equipment by parties who don't want to see him succeed. If you care to sit through this you can find out the who and the why.

I don't think it's worth it.

Blazing Stewardesses (1975)

* 1/2 (out of 4)

Semi-sequel to THE NAUGHTY STEWARDESSES finds Ben Brewster (Robert Livingston) asking Debbie (Connie Hoffman), Lori (Regina Carrol) and Barbara (Marilyn Joi) to come help him on a ranch he's getting off the ground. This family-friendly location comes under attack from some masked bandits and it might be from the jealous Mike Trask (Don 'Red' Barry).

BLAZING STEWARDESSES comes from Al Adamson and like most of his movies it's pretty much a complete mess but I will admit that there's quite a bit here for film buffs to enjoy as long as they're in the right frame of mind and don't mind seeing some veteran actors making fools of themselves at times. This is a pretty strange flick because the title is clearly meant to capitalize on BLAZING SADDLES but it's also being sold as a sequel to Adamson's 1974 film. Those expecting a sexploitation movie are going to be disappointed because outside of one scenes, there's very little nudity on display and one has to wonder why they even bothered connecting this movie to THE NAUGHTY STEWARDESSES.

This film is really just a throwback to the 1930s Hollywood. This film clearly means to pay homage to the comedy and westerns from that era and that fully explains why you've got people like Livingston and Barry on hand. There's also Yvonne De Carlo from The Munsters series as well as Harry and Jimmy from The Ritz Brothers. If you're a fan of any of these people then you'll probably get a small kick out of seeing them in their elder days playing up against their previous characters. I must admit that I've always enjoyed The Ritz Brothers and I found some of their acts here to be funny. Hoffman isn't nearly as good here as she was in the previous film but then again she's not given much to do.

In the end, BLAZING STEWARDESSES is simply too boring to be fully entertaining. Once again there's way too much stuff going on and none of it is written all that great. If you're a fan of the vetaran cast members then you might want to check it out but others should avoid.

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.

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.

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.
