Middling B comedy about a schoolteacher (Heather Angel) who undergoes a makeover which leads to wacky adventures involving gangsters, a corpse in a stolen car, and a man (John 'Dusty' King) she picks up off the side of the road. Never as funny as it desperately wants to be. In fact, it has some boring stretches. Angel and King bring little to the table, leaving the supporting players like Tom Dugan, William B. Davidson, and Constance Collier to pick up the slack. They do an admirable job of that, which helps make this at least watchable. Not a great film by any stretch but worth a look if you're in the mood for a quickie comedy with a few (but only a few) laughs.
