There is little of note in this thematically provocative but cinematically dull combination of sex comedy and whodunit....apart from the novelty value of seeing the famously suave and classy leading man of the 1950s and 1960s Rock Hudson in what is possibly the sleaziest character of his entire career; even his mustache is dripping with sleaze! The show-stoppingly sexy Angie Dickinson (to quote a girl in the movie: "Wow! Dig that figure!") has a discreet nude scene and also appears in a skimpy white nightie; her character has no moral inhibitions, either. The influence of the French director Roger Vadim can be seen in the content of the movie, not in the form; it plays like a dirty TV movie. ** out of 4.

At Oceanfront High School, all of the female students are lithe, lovely,luscious and lusty, the substitute English teacher is delighted to introduce the assistant manager of the football team to the wonders of sex (if only to help shrink his perpetual erection) and someone is killing off co-eds.The identity of the murderer isn't hard to figure out. The short list of suspects is a very short list. More puzzling is how MGM got away with schoolmarm Angie Dickinson's seduction of the underage lad played by John David Carson. Or why even the homeliest co-ed at Oceanfront turns out to be a knockout when she takes off her glasses and lets her hair hang loose. Rock Hudson in an uncharacteristic role is the phys ed teacher who spends most of his time bedding students. Telly Savalas is a curious cop and Keenan Wynn gets what he deserves for being the movie's dumbest security guard.

Black comedy about sex and murder at a high school. Guidance counselor Tiger McDrew (Rock Hudson) is banging many of the female students while also trying to help horny virgin Ponce de Leon Harper (John David Carson) get lucky with a hot new teacher (Angie Dickinson). Meanwhile Police Captain Sam Surcher (Telly Savalas) investigates a series of killings at the school.Fun, sexy, and cheesy in the best way. The cast is great. Lots of pretty girls, with of course sexy MILF Dickinson the standout. The script, by Gene Roddenberry of Star Trek fame, is smart and Roger Vadim's direction is good (in his first American film). Perhaps not for all tastes and definitely not for those who take everything seriously. If you enjoy some political incorrectness in your movies, you should have no problem enjoying this.

This picture takes the theme of perverted school personnel long before the media began focusing their attention on such people in their never ending attacks on school employees.Correction: Rock Hudson is not a teacher in this film. He is an assistant principal, coach, and guidance counselor all in one. He starts to have relations with some of the female students and murder and mayhem result.Roddy McDowell is the typical figure-head like principal in this mess. His secretary sounds and looks like Betty Boop.Yes, this is 1971 and Angie Dickinson looks more beautiful than ever. Telly Savalas is the chronic smoking detective and Keenan Wynn is a dumb officer who meets a bad fate when he accidentally stumbles on to what Hudson has been doing.The ending is ludicrous but so is the entire film.
