Buck Flower camps it up while others hump
lor_5 October 2011
Its stupid punning title is the giveaway: this is a particularly lame 1-day wonder, sort of a half-hearted loop carrier. Take your pick -it's on an Alpha Blue Archives 4-film Rene Bond tribute or on Vol. 140 of Something Weird's Dragon Art Theatre series.

Picture opens with a monochrome stag film "Marilyn Gets Sucked", depicting a threesome of two blondes working on a guy, as Buck Flower watches on his projector. He plays a transvestite here, camping it up outrageously but not figuring in the XXX action.

He invites folks over for a party to have sex and watch '30s stags. The guests do a lame imitation of the "Laugh-In" routine of folks dancing and freezing so one can recite a bad joke, e.g., "Definition of masturbation: it's an organ solo". I even liked the "Hee-Haw" version of this dated comedy technique better.

Beisdes the new footage of humping starring Nina Fause, Ric Lutze and Bond, many stag loops are recycled to null effect. It merely proves there's nothing new under the sun.

Pointless narration is included which saps the movie of any arousal potential, trying to make it clinical by repeatedly defining porn terms in Webster's Dictionary fashion. Finale has Fause talking dirty and then faking an orgasm, with a stupid cut to a British bulldog as the punchline to comically imply bestiality.

Music is particularly obnoxious here, trying in vain for an old-timey effect with "Lindy Rag", "Whispering", "Winchester Cathedral", "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square", "In the Mood" and even "Lili Marleen".

Other than Flower the ham, film notably has Lutze wearing his dog collar with lover Rene Bond literally leading him around bondage style by a leash.

Strange Mix of Humor and Porn

Guess Who's Coming This Weekend (1973)

* 1/2 (out of 4)

George "Buck" Flowers is watching an old stag movie where a couple ladies are working on a man. Flowers decides to invite over some couples (including Rene Bond, Nina Fause, Ric Lutze) so that they can have some sexual fun as well.

GUESS WHO'S COMING THIS WEEKEND is a pretty strange porno on a number of levels but there's no question that it's also pretty darn bad. I say that because the film was made in a way that I'm sure many people walked out of hte theater rather angry because most of the "new" footage with Bond and company is usually cut short as the picture goes back and forth between it and the stag movie.

I'm really not sure why the uncredited director did that. The film certainly attempts to be funny but it rarely is. One such example is that the movie frame with pause while the narrator gives us a word and then gives us the definition of that word. I'm guess this was meant to be funny but it really wasn't. The sex scenes weren't shot all that well and that includes Bond and Lutze who aren't as active or as entertaining as they usually are.

Strange Hardcore with Rene Bond

Guess Who's Coming This Weekend (1973)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

Extremely bizarre adult film has a gay man watching some old stag movies and it gives him the idea of having a few friends over to watch them with him. A few couples (including Rene Bond and her boyfriend/pimp Ric Lutze) come over to the house and soon they are following what they see. If you're looking for nothing more than bump and grind then you're going to find it here but at the same time I think you're going to be disappointed. It's hard to fully describe this film but I guess I'd call it an adult version of GLEN OR GLENDA? I say that because the film has some voice over narration and at times it really comes off like one of those exploitation films from the 30s like REEFER MADNESS that try to pass themselves off as educational but all they're really trying to do is show smut. This film runs just a few minutes over an hour and for the most part we get stock footage from those vintage films, so that right there puts you in the mind frame of something Wood would throw together. The film goes even further by constantly pausing the action so that the narrator can give you the definition of what's going on (here again feeling like one of those old "educational" movies). I'm really not sure what those grindhouse guys of the 70s would have thought of this as the movie is extremely uneven on one hand because it keeps cutting back and forth and the majority of the time it's one the old footage. The film even tries, at times, to compare how women were in porn compared to today. I really don't think this movie meant to be taken serious in its documentary form but it makes for something rather strange and it kept my interest from start to finish (as much as a film like this can at least). You'll really have your eyes peeled open during an incredibly bad dance sequence where the camera zooms in on the cast where they look straight into it and tell really bad jokes.
