Screenplay by Ed Wood, and it shows in this seemingly endless series of topless dancers, some of them hilariously bad. Dancer Mickey Jines (Hawaiian girl) is remembered as one of the top girly magazine models of the '60s.

This extravaganza of outrageously bad taste is the long-delayed and way over the top sequel to the cult comedy "Flesh Gordon." It's not for the easily offended. The acting is atrocious and the jokes are juvenile. The production values including FX are suprisingly good. NOTE: "Flesh Gordon" was released in 1974. This its only sequel was released in 1990 and 1993 as NC-17 and R rated versions. This trailer is for the 1990 NC-17 version.

An extended trailer which covers all three parts of the world's most famous and beloved fantasy, "The Fellowship of the Ring," "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King."
