FORMAT: DVD
Rick Lutze is a sleazy movie producer who wants to double cross a rival in order to make his dream project. His plan is to get an underage wannabe porn starlet (Sandy Dempsey) to seduce the competition so he can blackmail him. Lutze then promises the young ingenue a part in their latest picture (a porno western). Problems arise when the director accidentally casts the wrong actress in the lead role. Things eventually work themselves out when everyone involved decides to have a big orgy.
Some sources list Shot on Location as being directed by Ed Wood. That kind of makes sense because there is a reference to Criswell. However, the consensus seems to be it was directed by Donn (Alice in Acidland) Greer. Either way, it’s a fun slice of old-time smut.
The cast is particularly charming. Rene Bond takes the acting honors as the production’s sexy secretary/script girl. She looks terrific as always and delivers a top-notch BJ scene. Dempsey really gets into her sex scene on the casting couch and is a lot of fun to watch throughout. The big orgy sequence has a lot of energy too.
I do wish they had taken advantage of the western outdoor setting though. I mean you’ve got everyone in their Native American garb, you might as well put them to good use. Oh well, at least the final pun works surprisingly well as it really ends the movie with a bang in more ways than one.
The music is also good for an unintentional laugh or two. One scene uses music from (what sounds like) the Barbarella soundtrack and others are accompanied by Muzak versions of “It’s Impossible” and “Those Were the Days”. The dialogue is great as well and features some real humdingers, like when Lutze sees a starlet naked and says, “What I wouldn’t give to be a goose pimple!” My favorite line though was “If you can’t join ‘em, lick ‘em!”
Greer later went on to direct the immortal Rare Blue Apes of Cannibal Isle.
