Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Carol Yates is an aspiring actress appearing in a stag film for producer Phil Latio (John Alderman). Carol and her roommates Allison (Shari Mann) and Linda (Chris Mathis) catch the eye of studio big-wig Kenyon Adler (Stuart Lancaster) and begin their initiation into the sleazy world of Hollywood. Meanwhile, an aging lesbian actress named Maxine goes after Allison, eventually getting her electrocuted. Carol gets spanked by Phil and has a rough time of it, but eventually becomes a big star after appearing in a softcore nudie film called A Youth in Babylon. Carol soon changes her name to Starliss Knight and gets engaged to Doug Davis, the co-star from her first stag film. |
