...contrast to the all-male gang in the new film, with the ladies reduced to riding shotgun, Bartel's drivers are equally split between men and women. David Carradine is Frankenstein, and a pre-Rocky Sylvester Stallone plays Machine Gun Joe, but there's also Warhol renegade Mary Woronov as Calamity Jane and Roberta Collins as Goth gal Mathilda the Hun. They are as aggressive as the guys, with Woronov's "Zany Janey" having depleted a stable of studs; and their subservient navigators...
...King ("The Red Shoe Diaries"); the women's prison episode costarring low-budget icons Shirley Stoler and Sally Kirkland; an earlier babes-behind-bars outing in which a pre-"Love Boat" Lauren Tewes implores the Angels to rescue her sister from a harsh prison run by Warhol/Corman veteran Mary Woronov - a prison also inhabited by future Oscar winner Kim Basinger. And the series featured not only the requisite '70s guest appearance by Sammy Davis Jr. (playing twins!), but also a dramatic turn (if you can call it that) by Dean Martin as a gambler who falls in love with Sabrina...

Now these women and two others must fend off, or hop on, a platoon of randy males: Lisabeth's wormy ex (Wallace Shawn); her playwright brother (Ed Begley Jr.); her invalid prodigy son (Barrett Oliver); and two manservants, sleazy, pansexual Frank...
...film has some easy and some earned laughs, half a dozen murders and, for those who can't wait for Porky's 2, the requisite Nude Dancing at a Wild Party scene. This devious comic contraption is set in motion by a husband (Bartel) and wife (Mary Woronov) so decent and affectionate that they could star in their own sitcom. They have dreams no grander than to open a gourmet restaurant called Chez Bland-and the willingness to kill a gaggle of Los Angeles swingers in order to finance their scheme...
