Wow, even he made them!, 2 September 2007
Author: bluethunder35 (bluethunder35@hotmail.com) from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Kind of surprising that Herschell Gordon Lewis made these films. I always thought he made only cheap horror films. I guess he also dabbled in the nudist film genre of the early 60's.

You know the drill. This film is nothing but an excuse to see attractive people, especially the females, walking around in their birthday suits. As was the case for these early films, no morbidly obese women are shown. Today, with PC, you have to show everybody. Maslin Beach or any other cable show about nude beaches are good examples.

The film is notable for the occasional sights of pubic hair. Around this time, they tried to avoid showing that or the penis but you'll see bush on occasion here. Not a bad curiosity piece and it's always cool to see what heaven would look like in 1962.
