Scared Topless (2015)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
A group of college students agree to go to a haunted mansion with their professor as well as a psychic (Candy Lucas) in order to see if the ghost of a former actress (Jasmine Leo) is really there.
Before watching this film from Jim Wynorski, I had watched another one of his movies on Amazon called LEGEND OF THE NAKED GHOST. As soon as I turned this film on I realize that LEGEND OF THE NAKED GHOST was actually a shortened version of this. That film, appearing on Amazon, clocks in at less than forty-minutes and it's basically missing all of the simulated sex scenes that you can find uncut in this the original version. I'm guessing LEGEND OF THE NAKED GHOST was produced because Amazon didn't want any too naughty.
As far as the film goes, if you're into the sexploitation films that Wynorski makes then there's no question that you're going to enjoy this one. Obviously there's nothing here that is Oscar-worthy but at the same time the film wasn't going for that. This is the type of movie that you watch on places like Showtime at three in the morning and if you don't take it too serious then there's some fun to be had.
As you'd expect, the cast is full of beautiful, big-breasted women just like the director enjoys. Cindy Lucas and Bridgette B. are both very fun in their roles and there's no doubt that all of the nudity is what makes this thing so entertaining. I also really liked Leo in her role of the dead actress but it doesn't seem she continued in the business as her credits pretty much dried up. The entire cast is good enough for this type of film and they are clearly in on the joke of the film.
SCARED TOPLESS isn't a masterpiece but it's good enough for what it is. Which version you watch will be up to you but if you want all of the sex scenes then it's best to go with this one.
