Review by Noel Bailey
The
most aptly named film is screen history!
Boasting the "cream" of Australian comedy actors
in 1977, this excuse for a good-time was obviously intended
as a side-splitting laugharama along the lines of the British
CARRY ON series. It is SO bad, it should be compulsory viewing
at any accredited film-school in terms of how NOT to make
a movie.
With a
script from Hell, our fearless troupe cavort around a holiday
resort called "Sea Island" (How many writers did
it take to come up with this gem?) trying to be funny. Viewers
might derive some pleasure trying to nominate the worst individual
performance!
Filmed
allegedly in just 12 days, that MUST have included Editing
and Post Production! Another 353 would have made no difference! A seventies film to be missed. |
