IT IS 1976 ALL OVER AGAIN!
13 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
For those of us who love these old drive-in movie classics, you won't want to leave this one off your list. The opening scene is Candy(Claudia Jennings) running through a field having escaped prison. She meets with her sister(Tara Strohmeier) who gives her a change of clothes (first nude scene). The movie then switches to Ellie-Jo Turner (Jocelyn Jones) waking up (second nude scene). She is a bank teller who shows up late for work. Her boss cans her at the same time Candy enters the bank with dynamite performing a bank robbery. Ellie-Jo prevents a teller from using the silent alarm, an early version of "take this job and shove it" attitude. Later Candy picks up Ellie-Jo while hitch hiking. Ellie-Jo wants to rob banks with Candy. Candy is able to swap sex for dynamite. The girls want to make one good haul and escape across the border.

Great things that date this movie: Sound track- it was hokey in 1976 too. The huge rebel flag on the bank wall. Posting a real telephone number and not a 555- number. The cops are too stupid to check the former home for an escaped criminal. See-through pink top worn by Ellie-Jo. Soft drinks in glass bottles. Gold painted Super-Beetle. Daisy Duke shorts with knot tied blouse. Rotor dial phones. Smoking permitted in public buildings. No silicon or razor.

Sex and nudity.
