A naive, dimwitted heiress is kidnapped by an "army" of goofball interracial "revolutionaries". A lot of sex and some hilarity ensues. There's a big difference between how people watch porno-type films today and how you should watch (or at least how I watch) these old 70's sexploitation films. People often watch porno films by fast-forwarding through the "plot" and the "acting" to get to the sex. With these 70's sexploiters though, it's better to fast-forward instead through the unappealing sex scenes. Granted, that often doesn't leave much of a movie, but sometimes they can be mildly entertaining like this one.Obviously, this movie was inspired by the Patty Hearst kidnapping (and if you can't figure out why the heroine is named "Charlene Kane", you should probably forfeit your IMDb membership). But whereas there were a number of "serious" films made on this subject, this movie plays up the absurdity of the whole thing, especially with the "revolutionary army" (all five of them). The leader "Cinque" (aka "Donald Defuse") is a windbag Black Panther-type who's also mouthing off about the "insect pigs" and the sorry state of his "army". But he's hung like a squirrel and is always getting slapped around by his white girlfriend played by Talie Cochrane. Cochrane was a veteran of the sexploitation genre and she's pretty funny here as a former Republican, who worked on Shirley Temple Black's congressional campaign and as "Goofy" at Disneyland, before joining the "revolutionary" movement. There's also a guy who looks like "Meathead" and a black woman with a huge afro who looks like "Cleopatra Jones" (their ridiculous interracial sex scene is far more likely to provoke laughter than erections). Rounding out the group of deluded revolutionaries is a blonde actress who doesn't do much, but is probably the most attractive (Cochrane and Maria Arnold,who plays "Charlene", had nice bodies and were genuinely talented acting-wise by the standards of this genre, but they were no raving beauties).The whole thing is narrated by a smart-ass TV anchorman in a polyester suit. The credits are all fake (the cinematographer is one "Otto Focus"). People back in the day probably watched this for all the interracial and lesbian softcore sex scenes, but today it's more of an amusing time capsule of 70's era stupidity.
