8/10
Incredible exploitation oddity...
29 January 2023
... from writer-director Ron Ormond. He also co-stars as Nemo, a New Orleans nightclub owner and crime boss. After hearing about a monster lurking in the nearby swamps, he orders his henchmen to capture it and to add it to his club's stage revue, which mainly consist of strippers and one singer who does her white-girl-imitating-Motown best. With Jack Horton, Peggy Ann Price, June Ormond, Georgette Dante, and Sleepy LaBeef as the monster.

This no-budget effort combines the best of the stripper-revue subgenre of skin-flick with bad comedy and a terrible monster played by 6'5'' rockabilly singer Sleepy LaBeef. The monster does a geek act on stage that I'm not entirely certain was faked. One stripper does a pasty-tassel-twirl act with the tassels on fire! This is available in the public domain and on YouTube in a pretty good looking print, so I recommend you gather the family and enjoy this one as soon as possible with as many people as possible.

My 8/10 rating is for the "so bad it is good category. It is 3/10 if you are looking for uplifting cinema. On second thought, if you are looking for uplifting cinema, do look elsewhere.
