New York-based sound editor Anton Holden (Return to Horror High) cut his filmmaking teeth directing exploitation features, the most memorable being his first, 1966's noir-ish Aroused. His second outing, the grim Cargo of Love, attempted to breathe new life into the silent era genre cliché of forced prostitution, but Olga's Girls it ain't despite a reliable cast including Sheila Britt (Come Ride the Wild Pink Horse), Sam Too Much, Too Often Stewart, Richard B. Shull from Spring Break, Stigma's Jean Parker, Janet Banzet from A Thousand Pleasures, gal about town Rita Bennett (Too Much, Too Often!), skinflint producer Charles Abrams (Commuter Game) as an FBI agent, and an uncredited appearance by future porn star Angelique Pettyjohn (Titillation). It was also the debut of soap star Gloria Irizarry (Fort Apache the Bronx).
