Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This movie begins with 3 members of a local motorcycle gang known as "the Vultures" playing a trick on some high school students during their graduation. Later that night a man named "Uncle Joe" (Huntz Hall) has a mild heart attack and as a result cannot operate his local gas station because of it. Fortunately, his niece, "June" (Kirsten Baker) comes up with a plan to invite her high school friends to help run it while Uncle Joe is recovering. What none of them realize however is the extent at which a new service station across the street has ruined Uncle Joe's business. And the owner of the new gas station, "Mr. Friendly" (Dave Shelley) has no intention of allowing anybody to interfere with his profits. What Mr. Friendly doesn't count on is the ingenuity of June furthered by the Vultures when they decide to join her team. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this is the kind of grade-B film which could have only been produced in the 70's with the music, hair styles and everything else clearly standing out. Yet in spite of the obvious low-budget, extremely simple plot and poor acting, the movie itself wasn't too bad all things considered. What I found most enjoyable was that the humor was so basic and corny that it was actually funny--in a weird sort of way. Likewise, having a couple of cute young actresses like Linda Lawrence (as "Betty") along with the aforementioned Kirsten Baker certainly didn't hurt either. That said, while this film clearly isn't a good picture by any means, it wasn't that bad either and because of that I have rated it as just slightly below average.

Gas Pump Girls is a late '70s drive-in movie about a group of sexy girls who decide to save their uncle's ailing gas station by putting their bodies on the line, making mini skirts with halter tops that they remove whenever a crisis arises, such as when mobsters arrive and try to kill them. Their feminine charms work so well that soon business is booming.The movie opens with a scene that sets the tone for the rest of the picture: at a graduation ceremony, a gang of greasers (the vultures) snag the girls' gowns on a nail so that when they step forward the material, which is apparently made out of crepe paper, rips off, and of course the girls are all wearing next to nothing underneath.This modest tone, one of bawdy humour, is not upheld throughout the movie's runtime. The movie seriously falters toward the end, as I guess the screenwriters ran out of excuses to show nudity, or much else to advance the already pretty thin plot. I never believed that the girls and their friends would go to any length to save the old man's gas station. He isn't particularly charismatic when you meet him, and there's no chemistry between him and the main character.I liked her, though. She's very pretty with her blonde hair and blue eyes. The only nudity from her is right at the beginning of the movie, in the gown-tearing sequence.

1st watched 12/13/2009 – 1 out of 10 (Dir-Joel Bender): Extremely lame titillation comedy with hardly anything redeemable that I can think of. A lame idea, with a lame cast, lame songs, and even lame in the sex appeal department. The basic storyline is about two rival gas stations – one falling apart and owned by the uncle of a recent high-school grad(played by Huntz Hall of the bowery boys fame). The other newer station – is making the bucks and the young girl feels sorry for the uncle after he encounters some health problems and gets her tight-clothed girlfriends and their bozo boyfriends along with the local thugs to bring it back to life. Of course, there are a few bare breasts and the typical teenage pranks you'd expect in this kind of a movie but there's also a song and a dance number!!(oh, boy…) Of course, the tight-clothed girls save the day--- kind of, before it's all over. Why MGM studios financed this piece of trash is beyond me, but I guess they were trying to cash in on the teenage sex comedy craze of the 80's. This has to be one of the worst even of that group – believe it or not. I just hope those involved with this have better things to remember themselves for besides this. Well, I guess Huntz does as one of the bowery boys.

How could any nut forget GAS PUMP GIRLS? This one possibly started the light "exploitation comedies" that flowed into the early 80s mainstream. It appears that all the dirty filth invading theater screens since then suddenly gave way to this picture that PORKY'S would later follow. You'll most likely expect the home video version being drastically cut of any excessive garbage, but what's the difference? Don't be surprised to find this one fairly delightful, very amusing, and less profane, because that's the way films like this should be. Still "adults only" fun, but not at the extreme (unless an uncut edition surfaces!). I hate how movies like this offer a plot where "getting revenge" hampers an already sweet story of five young girls running shop, so that kind of hurts it. If you're addicted to shot-on-video porn (and I hope not!), this isn't for you. But I know you're honest! GAS PUMP GIRLS, while worth a good night's rent, is a surprisingly overlooked gem that needed greater attention. A fine reference of cult moviedom. Check out the video box cover and see for yourself!
