Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Comedy, nudity, and the just plain bizarre collide in The First Nudie Musical. In hopes of making enough money to save his troubled movie studio, Harry Schecter (Stephen Nathan) and his plucky secretary, Rosie (Cindy Williams, pre-Laverne & Shirley), cook up the world's first pornographic musical. What follows is a loosely plotted collection of comedy bits and musical numbers (written by Rene Hall and codirector Bruce Kimmel) that, while not always successful, have a raw energy and charm that's hard to resist. The movie as a whole looks like it's been done by a new sketch comedy troupe with plenty of spirit and almost enough rehearsal. Yes, there is full-frontal nudity, and once you're done feeling bad for the first group of naked chorines performing in a roomful of fully clothed men, it all goes fine. Though many of the bits misfire, there is plenty of genuinely funny stuff, and even when there isn't, the movie is so weird that it's hard to stop watching. --Ali Davis

Rating:  - At last!!
I first saw this movie on Showtime back in the late Seventies or early Eighties, and tried to find it on tape for years afterwards. Very funny, and I LOVED seeing Ron Howard (uncredited) and Cindy Williams in the same film pre-Happy Days/Laverne & Shirley. I have frequently tried to describe this film to my friends, and been frustrated. Even singing "Dancing Dildoes Are We" didn't convey the hilarity. Now I can show them!! You should see it too.
If you truly love the bizarre bellylaugh ... Read More

After knowing about this film for over twenty years, I finally got a chance to see it. As a consumer reporter, the first thing the public needs to know is that Cindy Williams does not get naked in it. She's cute as a button, and carries the film in the female lead. You are kind of hoping she does disrobe in the final scene, but no, like Sarah Jessica Parker in "Sex in the City", she leaves this to the other ladies in the cast.
That disappointment aside, the film is very enjoyable to watch. ... Read More
Rating:  - Nudie Is As Nudie Does--A Look At Two Musical Camp Classics
One of the greatest aspects of the DVD format is that it has brought underground cult films to a mass audience. No longer do you have to wonder about the oddball titles you've only heard about or that you've always wanted to see. These films might have been screened in large cities, but soon disappeared only to be whispered about nostalgically or forgotten completely. In my collection, I have two such films--musicals with rabidly supportive fan bases. And while I admire elements of both films, viewed with ... Read More
Rating:  - Great, funny movie
In these times, when an American Taliban consisting of victim feminists, conservatives, fundamentalists, and just plain prudes are trying to force all women into chadors and burkas, it is refreshing that one can still obtain a video showing any nudity. Enjoy it while you can, because, like a boa constrictor tightening its coils every time its prey exhales, the Supreme Court has been putting the squeeze on nudity every since Nixon denounced the 1970 Presidential Commission's Report and appointed five right wing ...

Rating:  - Skip this one.
This is a really bad production of the movie.
There is no remastering, so the movie is grainy and blurry.
