Super Cheesy Movies!

[Michie]

So lastnight I was up & saw a movie starting called- 'Beyond the Valley of the Dolls'.

It was gloriously cheesy.

Extremely dated & I could not tear my eyes away from it.

Roger Ebert wrote it.

It was awful & fabulous at the same time.

Anyone seen it?

I read the book and Valley of the Dolls. Yes I saw but too long ago to remember.

I only remember one line.....Robin Stone telling someone "boobs are for cows" . Who is the author, she died of cancer.

ETA Okay the Robin Stone thing is from Valley of the Dolls.

This one was Beyond Valley of the Dolls.


I remember seeing Valley of the Dolls not too long ago. Had Patty Duke in it I believe. I'm really into old movies. And some of them are gloriously cheesy. This one I saw lastnight though...lol, it was just sooo over the top.

Isn't Z-Man supposed to be a crossdresser and when it's revealed somebody says, "Z-Man, you're a chick!" ?

Valley of the Dolls was an airport novel by Jacqueline Susann about starlets on drugs. Beyond the Valley of the Dolls was an effort directed by Russ Meyer, an impresario of big breast soft porn of the 60s. I think it is the only screenplay by Roger Ebert made into a movie. It is incredibly bad and surreal.

Yes. Z-Man revealed his breasts. He/she was called an ugly broad by Lance Rocke. Z-Man then went on a murderous rampage.
