The GREATEST flick....... EVER., 12 July 2006
10/10
Author: the_blue_dot from Florida

I gotta be straight up and just tell anyone reading this that PICK-UP is a favorite film of mine. The movie (in it's most basic sense) deals with two hippie chicks (both hot as hell by the way) who hitch a ride across Florida with a cool hippie dude. They take a detour and ultimately find themselves lost and stranded out in the Florida Everglades (props to the actors for dealing with what had to be miserable conditions out in those swamps).... Anyway.... Once out in the swamps you get lots of sex and nudity as well as a bunch of odd flashback sequences that give hints as to who the characters are etc.... I won't go into any further details because like a 'dream' or a 'trip'... It's best to just 'experience' THE experience... There's lots of stuff going on for the viewer to try to interpret if they so choose... Anyway....

In closing.... PICK-UP is incredibly difficult to get hold of but it's worth the search and is highly recommended to fans of trippy/weird/surreal type flicks as well as fans of early 70's exploitation.

This flick NEEDS a special edition DVD release!!!!!!!!!!!!!
