4/10
A fun sexploitation comedy with a 70s feel to it and an entertaining premise
27 July 2023
The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood (1980) is a movie that was recently available on Tubi. The storyline follows a prostitute who writes a book that does well and goes mainstream. She signs a movie deal that falls apart so she decides to make the movie on her own. Her former investor tries to sabotage her project but she fights through the attempts to try and make a movie as successful as her book.

This movie is directed by Alan Roberts (The Sexpert) and stars Martine Beswick (Thunderball), Chris Lemmon (Wishmaster), Adam West (Batman), Dick Miller (Gremlins), Phil Silvers (A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum) and Richard Deacon (Birds).

This has a surprisingly impressive cast. Seeing Adam West do a soft porn movie really threw me off. His pool scene had me cracking up. The storyline has a 70s grindhouse feel to it and is fun to watch unfold. The circumstances are really unpredictable. As you would expect, there's a ton of sex and nudity in here, at times awkwardly so; although, the jungle scene was awesome.

Overall, this is a fun sexploitation comedy with a 70s feel to it and an entertaining premise. I would score this a 4/10 and recommend seeing once.
