Movie Review: Funny
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm all into those black explotation films and this is another one.. but if you're into those then you will enjoy this movie.. Funny at the end of the movie like nowdays they have the interviews with the cast well it looks like back in the day, maybe that wasn't possible this movie has a transcript of an interview with cast members.. Maybe money was tight.. :)Movie Review: here i go again

Summary: 3 Stars
Well, this is a wild movie! First it is weird because it features a muscular guy who owns a hair salon, but his clients seem to go there to get it on instead of wanting their hair done! It is not an action film, but despite it's "R" rating, this film is on par with soft porn!
The first thing that caught my eye on this one is Tayna Boyd (AKA Celeste from "Days of our Lives") is in this. This is what attracted me to the film(yeah, I saw it every now and then). I know that Tanya is one fine women today, and I was shocked to find out that she went back to the 1970's! However, I was saddened by her role in this porno. I doubt if any of the main players got more than $2,000 for their roles, but Tanya was more or less a porn actor before "Days."
This film seems to be mainly about sexual encounters more than and plot. Johnathan, the lead, makes house calls for hair only to be hit on by the clients two (clearly) teenage daughters! They not only take off their bikini tops, but they take off the bottoms too, and you see it ALL! These girls looked their ages, so I do not know how this got by! Then the mother comes out and pushes the daughters away and disrobes and starts riding the guy and yes, you see it ALL!
Then, 'thugs' come by and destroy the man's shop. His receptionist (Boyd) advises Johnathan that she will leave and go back to her pimp to avoid further problems. She leaves, then comes right back and starts taking her clothes off! I always liked what Boyd was packing even today and I always wanted to see what she was workin with - but I had no idea that I would see ALL that she was workin with! I see it quite a few times in this film! In fact, she is more or less FULLY naked throughout the movie!
Johnathan is taking a shower (right after his place is destroyed?) and then Boyd joins him for some soft porn shower scene with ALL being seen at times. Then the next scene is of the two of them waking up nude. Boyd gets up and you see it ALL, then Johnathan is lying there and you see it ALL! This film is nothing but porn and I do not know how it is "R" rated instead of "X." It is as if the director knew he had no plot so he just threw in a bounch of sex and strong nudity in the film to keep our attention from what otherwise is a piece of garbage movie.
I won't give it all away(!), but later on Boyd goes back to the pimp and Johnathan is paid to stay away, which he does. Boyd continues to show it ALL. So sad what Hollywood did to black women in those blaxploitation days. Then Johnathan goes away after attending a wild party (a nude party for no reason), then he meets Boyd again and acts as if he was in love with her. We never got the idea that he loved her! He had sex with other women while she listened ,so she knew it and he took the money with the quickness to back off. Sounds like love?
This is a wild movie and it is sad that people (Boyd) would go this far for what I am sure is a low paycheck. Even if it were millions, it is a shame. She has a sexy body and should have been a model instead. Well, at least she has respectable work on "Days" even if the shows will never be repeated like movies. For the sex scenes and wildness alone, you might as well check it out. Not a classic film, but classic for the sex without an "X" rating. It still shocks me that there are so many ho's in Hollywood that will do ANYTHING for a dollar. If it's on the corner, on video, in a club or in a "movie," it is still the same - prostitution. It does not matter how big or small your name is.
