The team of Tom Elliot and Teri Diver brought creativity to the parody genre with this comedy inspired by the oddball success of Woody Allen's "What's Up, Tiger Lily?", his first movie that playfully took a standard Japanese action movie and reworked the footage to his own invented story.
They don't copy his work but instead send up spy movies and a whole lot more with an attractive and talented cast. Kaitlyn Ashley is billed simply as "The Villainess" (though misspelled on screen as Villianess), who's stolen a new aphrodisiac potion called StayHard. The government's out to recover it, with Steve Drake assigning Mike Horner and femme sidekicks to do the job.
But surrounding this simple concept is plenty of nutty lunacy, mocking different types of old B movies and of course sex films. One innovation is the sparing use of a strange effect where the left half of a scene is presented in black & white while the right hand side is in color -not a split-screen but something chieved with filters. Surprisingly effective as a minor bad guy is ace cameraman Ralph Parfait (who's still working in porn in a career spanning over 30 years), made up as a Chinaman replete with a Number One Son a la Charlie Chan.
Lots of other satire includes a very effective spoof of the Allison Hayes classic "Attack of the 50-Foot Woman", with mega-built Daphne as Boobzilla, terrorizing the town and even stepping on lead actress Brittany O'Connell with her huge foot. I was actually worried at this point, but fortunately (and amusingly) Brittany returns later in the movie, bandaged up but still intact somehow.
Ron Jeremy's seemingly inevitable cameo role(s) work better than usual, as when the movie stops after a couple of reels, and we're informed by a voice from the theater (even though we're supposedly watching a late-night syndicated movie package on TV) accusing the film's director of being wacko. So Ron is interviewed (by the movie's director Teri Diver) as the director and he defends the picture by pointing out that only the sex matters in a porn movie, not any crazy story. Later Ron shows up as a sheik who is out to acquire the potion from Kaitlyn.
The femme supporting cast is impressive, including Missy, Patricia Kennedy and Micky Lynn, though it's Kaitlyn and Brittany's show.
