Slumber Party ‘57 (1976)
Just released the 7th edition of my En fin de nuit VHS compilation of ‘80s and ‘90s late-nite soft-core programming.
Two things remained popular in the ‘70s and ‘80s: drive-in sex comedies and a ‘50s nostalgia revival on-set by American Graffiti (1973). Slumber Party ‘57 (1976) manages to sh-boom sh-boom them both, and a few years before Bob Clark’s Porky’s (1981) at that.
Mostly forgotten, Slumber Party ‘57 is a rather pedestrian sex-ploitative flick, where questionable cinematic decisions and a fun ‘50s soundtrack featuring The Platters and Jerry Lee Lewis keep you going. I only ever saw this run once on Bleu nuit.
There are also a slew of trailers for other period sex comedies and some really weird late-night commercials.
This was digitized from my Selectavision disc, an analog video technology developed by RCA that failed spectacularly but I find charming. It technically looked better than VHS but the wear-and-tear on the cartridges means there are some glitchy moments in the presentation.
You can download the compilation here.
