One of my all time favorites.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Best movie ever!

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

I stumbled onto this one via YouTube and read on IMDb that el grande QT selected it for a film festival. So I checked out a few fragments and just had to see it, pretty much immediately. And it turned out to be a lot of fun. And quite obviously I got to see where some of the inspiration for Death Proof came from.It's not actually a good film (of course, I'd almost say), but the swearing, the dancing, the sheer young female rebellion (in short skirts or less) of it is contagious. And then there's even The Hoff being silly, a giant play-dinosaur and lots of fantastic funky music. Some scenes should have been altogether deleted (the cooking principal for instance) and others could have been trimmed down considerably (e.g. the final basketball match and the drug induced lunch hell); with a runtime of some twenty minutes less it could have been much more fluent and vibrant I believe.Still, this is fun stuff. 6 out of 10.

Plot!? This thing has a plot!?! No, no my friends, that is not why we are here. This thing is just basically insane and needs to be taken at that value. When this was shown at Tarantino's first film fest in Austin way back when, the second reel of the film was accidentally upside-down and backwards. However, pretty much no one (excepting Quentin, of course, who had at least seen it before) really thought that anything was actually wrong. No, we are here for 70's style sexplotation!. See boobies! See David Hasselhoff in the altogether (frontal)!See him sniff panties (which revives him for The Big Game, an integral part of any cheerleader movie). See people getting stoned! See people getting accidentally stoned!! And, of course, the butt-munching scene is both charming and amusing. Let's not forget the wild and crazy dancing scenes!! Really, if you are looking to be amused by something totally wacked out from the past, here you go. Otherwise, go back to watching your Bergmann or whatever. Note (oops): I accidentally confused this with 'The Swinging Cheerleaders' (which actually does have more or less of a plot and was double-billed with this one at the first QT festival). I have removed this comment from that film.

Not only was this the most enjoyable of the three CHEERLEADERS flicks (see also THE CHEERLEADERS and THE SWINGING CHEERLEADERS), it was the wildest of all the drive-in California teen sex comedies of the '70s. In this full blast over-the-top world of high school social anarchy, even the idea of Rainbeaux Smith wearing a cheerleading uniform while in the advanced stages of pregnancy actually fits. Undoubtedly the closest to a porno reel without actually becoming one, although the encounter between two of the cheerleaders and a Boy Scout out in the woods looks like there was some actual sex taking place that was hidden only by the camera angle and some judicious editing. The idea of a bubble-bath orgy in the basketball players' shower is truly inspired. Also a nice comic cameo by "McHale's Navy" veteran Carl Ballantine. (God, why couldn't I get a principal like that when I was going to school?) Forget David Hasselhoff here; in this movie he's (thankfully) a non-entity. But dig those dance numbers! My wildest teenage fantasies put on celluloid, and while I was still a teenager yet! Truly surreal!

the only 2 reasons i can think of to see this movie is (1.) the scene where David Hasselhoff dances with the other cheerleaders and (2.) the scene where David goes into the girls room with another cheerleader and the school nurse walks in. Yes he has a nude scene but its nothing big(literally....)
