ONE MILLION AC/DC

12/01/2011 | No comment

title: ONE MILLION AC/DC

year: 1969

cast: Gary Kent

camp value: ***

If the entire movie centered on caveman stud Olaf (Gary Kent) sauntering in and out of the cave trying to kill the plastic toy T-REX with a bow and arrow instead of various scenes of pointless in-and-out, this would have been a great grade Z-cheapie. The myriad of full frontal sexual writhing gets tiresome, and there's simply too much of it, although the orgy where prehistoric men are drinking wine out of coffee cups with handles, and their women are feeding them grapes, is good because there's horrible "acting" involved. But the plastic toy T-REX "monster," obviously being moved around by someone's hand and on the verge of falling over, makes this one a complete howler. Not to forget an unbelievable scene where Olaf and his girl walk in front of the camera and sing to the tune of "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow" with the words "The Spear Goes into the Monster" repeated until the clincher... "The Monster Loses His Mind": possibly the greatest twenty seconds ever captured on film that you can now enjoy...
