<strong>Masters of Discipline</strong> (197?) & <strong>Spank Me Spank Me</strong> (197?)<Br /><br />
Some people have to "think twice about seeing" films called <strong>Spank Me Spank Me</strong>. I'm guessing that regular readers of this site are not in that demographic. What a title!<Br /><br />

<strong>The New Comers</strong> (1973) & <strong>All In The XXX Family</strong> (197?)<Br /><br />
Directed by Lloyd Kaufman and featuring Harry Reems and Georgina Spelvin, <strong>The New Comers</strong> was billed as "the first X rated muscial." I haven't seen it, but am curious to hear from someone who has. Given Kaufman's involvement, I'm guessing it wasn't a true X flick.<Br /><br />
And how great is the title <strong>All In The XXX Family</strong>?!?<Br /><br />

<strong>Report to the Commissioner</strong> (1975) - <em>No One Knew She Was An Undercover Policewoman. Including The Detective Who Killed Her.</em><Br /><br />
In terms of taglines that make you want to stop what you're doing and check out the film, <strong>Report to the Commissioner</strong> is tops.<Br /><br />

<strong>China Girl</strong> (197?) - <em>More Action Than Kung Fu. More Excitement Than James Bond.</em><Br /><br />
The China Girl is a strange breed of women indeed.<Br /><br />

<em>Are You Pinched? Try Our Famous Tantalizing and Unique Smorgasbord</em><Br /><br />
If there's one thing Congress hasn't tried to fix this economy, it's a tantalizing and unique smorgasbord. Those schmucks. http://www.reeldistraction.com/?action=viewNews&docID=2177 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 00:00:00 GMT http://www.reeldistraction.com/?action=viewAdvert&docID=2176 <p class="picture">

<strong>Trip with the Teacher</strong> (1975) - <em>They Forced Her To Commit The Ultimate Sacrifice!</em><Br /><br />
Great tagline. And "How Far Should A Teacher Go To Protect Her Students?" is almost as good. I really dug this movie and its otherworldly main biker villain when I first saw the film a few years ago. My notes on that screening are <A HREF="http://calendar.reeldistraction.com/?action=movieDetails&movieID=1482">here</a>.<Br /><br />

<strong>Kato: Son of the Dragon</strong> (1983)<Br /><br />
It's hard to tell for sure given the glut of post-Lee-death flicks, but I'm pretty sure this is the Filipino action flick <strong>Kato: Son of the Dragon</strong>. I've never seen it and there isn't much information about it online. I would have loved to see it at this <em>Imperial</em> screening, especially since the first 500 patrons got...<br /><br />

Wow!<Br /><br />

<strong>Too Scared to Scream</strong> (1985) - <em>Your Blood Runs Cold... Your Heart Jumps Into Your Throat</em><br /><br />
This is one of those films that has - for some inexplicable reason - been <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pDfd9MxDes">posted to youtube in multiple parts</a>. I do not recommend seeing it that way.<br /><br />

<strong>Here Come the Littles</strong> (1985) - <em>Here Come The Littles In Their First Motion Picture Adventure Ever</em><br /><br />
<strong>Littles</strong> plus <strong>The Last Starfighter</strong> (1984) & <strong>Strange Invaders</strong> (1983)? Looks like <strong>b-a-c ciné</strong> was a great place for kids (and adults who had kids to take to the theater).<br /><br />
