Sexploitation potboiler from director Russ Meyer is a fairly terrible opus concerning Lorna, the sex-starved young wife of a salt miner living in a shack on the riverfront, who contemplates leaving her milquetoast husband for her rapist, an escaped killer who caught her in the weeds just after a skinny dip. Meyer's familiar mixture of girl-peeping and deadly serious proselytizing will be tolerable to his fans, however the ugly beating of an innocent woman in the first reel sets a depressing tone for the picture. Script, direction and performances are all amateurish--there must have been better ways for male audiences of 1964 to find stimulation over this junk. Old-fashioned theme song and score, while not particularly clever, may be the movie's only plus. * from ****
