Cast

Reception

"An odd assortment of people become involved in a small town Mayor's scheme to turn a dying hamlet into a tourist wonderland . You can find better things to do with your evening than watch this accident...", wrote a short review.[3] The film was noted for the presence of various "aging starlets" of the pornographic industry.[4][5] It's also described in a review in Psychotronic Video Guide as "70s nonsense" and "a dull film", but with a special mention for the presence of the band the Hot Licks (Dan Hicks's band, but without him for the occasion).[6]
