The late Ken Scudder from Curt McDowell's Thundercrack! is a private investigator tasked with learning the secrets of a sex cult led by a charismatic charlatan (porn extra Herbert Wong) in Charles (China de Sade) Webb's The Sinful Pleasures Of Reverend Star. Also with Kristine Heller from The Erotic Adventures Of Candy, Desiree SexWorld West, Paul Thomas (Jesus Christ Superstar), and actor/filmmaker John Seeman (Blazing Zippers).

Before producing critically lauded films for John Faces Cassavettes, jack-of-all-trades Al C. Ruban directed this 1965 sexploitation feature made on location in New York City. Through the tale of a housewife seeking work at a "modeling studio," The Sexploiters surveys the various kinks offered behind the phony facade. These involve New York sex film regulars Gigi Darlene (Bad Girls Go To Hell), June Roberts from Joe Sarno's Red Roses Of Passion, and Jackie Miller (Mme. Olga's Massage Parlor); along with uncredited roles by filmmakers C. Davis Smith, Jerry Denby, Sande N. Johnsen, and Ruban himself. The soundtrack was by Steve Karmen (Teenage Gang Debs), and distribution was handled by Bob Cresse's Olympic International.

"Godfather of Gore" Herschell Gordon Lewis followed up his hillbilly horror extravaganza Two Thousand Maniacs (1964) with this cornpone tale about a country and western singer (Charles Glore from the aforementioned Maniacs) who with his girlfriend (Marilyn Walters, later in The Spy Who Came) returns to his rustic roots for songwriting inspiration. Instead, they stumble into in a battle over moonshine between a hillbilly clan and a psychopathic sheriff (Gordon Oas-Heim from Paul Morrissey's Bad). Glore, originally from Waycross, Georgia, was screenwriter as well as star. Also with Jeffrey Allen (Santa Claus from Lewis' The Magic Land of Mother Goose), Ben Moore (She Freak), and Body Shop auteur J. G. "Pat" Patterson. 

Hoping to tie their product to a certain controversial Swedish import from 1967 directed by Vilgot Sjöman, New York's Century Cinema Corporation lifted part of Sjöman's title for their 1970 soft core cheapie starring Rita Bennett (the corpse from File X For Sex: The Story Of The Perverted), Uta Erickson (She Came On The Bus), and Sheila Britt from Murder In Mississippi. A jilted lesbian gets even with her lover Sylvia by picking up a submissive wino on Skid Row, a ploy that fails when Sylvia joins them for a threesome. The credits-free campaign for this lost film leave us wondering who made it, as Century Cinema pushed everything from Patrick Wright porn to Leonard Kirtman's  horror double-bill.

The 1971 German-made mondo feature Wunderland der Liebe - Der große deutsche Sexreport, English-language title Sex Freedom In Germany, profiles purported permissiveness, mostly of a sordid sexual nature, in the new Germany. Segments include the peculiar stance of the German Sexual Democrats, Danish sex research doctors Phyllis and Eberhard Kronhausen, a pedophile priest, Viennese Actionist madman and real-life sex offender Otto Muehl (also seen in Dusan Makavajev's Sweet Movie), druggie pornographers, a condom factory, and a cult of Teutonic orgiasts. Director Dieter Geissler is better known as a television actor and producer/co-producer of films such as Roman Polanski's What? and the kiddie fantasy The NeverEnding Story. The soundtrack from the krautrock band Apocalypse (aka Die Anderen) was overseen by disco wunderkind Giorgio Moroder. Distributed in the U.S. by Sunset International (Flesh Gordon).

Former RAF flying ace Barry Mahon alerts grindhouse audiences to the dangers of hippie pads in his grim 1968 feature Prowl Girls, also known as Runaway Daughters but currently missing under either title. With Sue Akers (Trailer Camp Sex Ring) and Kristen Steen from the X-rated Alice In Wonderland. Cinematography was by William K. Hennigar (See How They Come), and Chelly Wilson's Chancellor Films handled distribution. 

This early Boxoffice International release is a nudie cutie from 1961 that's memorable for being She Freak star Claire Brennen's first feature film and little else. Spoofing the popular television series The Untouchables, it's a Prohibition-era comedy involving two gangsters (John Dennis and Brad Logan) seeking revenge on a schlubby bookkeeper (Billy Holmes from Terror Circus) hiding out in a health spa called The Fat Chance Rejuvenation Center. Also with Baby Bubbles from Mr. Peter's Pets, Margo Woode (Bop Girl Goes Calypso), and Nancy Lewis, the stripper from The Oscar.

Writer/director Joel The Incredible Torture Show Reed's campy 1969 Career Bed stars future hardcore star Jennifer Welles as an emotionally abused young woman shopped around to predatory talent agents by her amoral stage manager mother (a hilarious Honey Hunter). With Georgina Spelvin (Centerspread Girls) as a lesbian talent agent, Ann Wells from The Headless Eyes, Charles Carlton Buffum (Robert Downey Sr.'s Putney Swope), John Cardoza (later a Christian Broadcasting Company film producer) as a film producer, and Reed himself as a sound technician. Featuring the undeniably catchy theme tune "Career Bed" credited to Vic Spina and the Lost Children.

Film editor Edward Rollercoaster Biery's single directorial effort, the 1964 nudie cutie The Peeping Phantom, relocates Gaston Leroux's vengeful ghoul to the striptease milieu. It's told via flashback in a cut-rate courtroom setting, where a bevy of strippers in turn identify the notorious Peeping Phantom as their voyeur. Also released as How To Succeed With Girls, it features Paul Leder of I Dismember Mama infamy, Playboy Playmate Marissa Mathes (Blood Bath), future porn director Ted Roter (Norma), South Florida's Dolores Carlos (Bunny Yeager's Nude Camera), Cathy Crowfoot from Mermaids of Tiburon, and future star of television's Golden Girls Rue McClanahan. Co-writer Bill Norton later co-wrote Cisco Pike with Robert Towne.  Alas, only a trailer survives.

A Time to Love director Harold Kovner's The Postgraduate Course in Sexual Love is a 1970 "white coater" starring prolific television character actor and former skin flick fixture John Dullaghan (also in the similar Sessions of Love Therapy) as a professor who lectures at length about the varieties of human sexuality while screening soft core and XXX footage of various carnal couplings to a classroom of apathetic college students. Also with Bert and Babs Lewison from Big Beaver Splits the Scene, Fran Carston (Kama Sutra '71), Jane and Michael Barber (The Zodiac Couples) as a hippie duo, and Jane Tsentas from The Big Snatch.
