Beyond the Valley of the Dolls
) 
I like the fact that "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" was a parody off of "Valley of the Dolls". It was nothing like it, and hilarous in content. Everything was over the top! So retro and silly. Rockers, Hippies, drugs, sex and alcohol. Cliches galore, and more flesh and 70's rock & roll. Collector edition had cool photo cards and dvd extras. Commentaries! It's like something you pull out for a laugh, and a suprise.

Thank you for voting. If your vote meets our 
Beyond the Drugs and Hysteria !
) I bought this DVD because I wanted to see the Strawberry Alarm Clock perform hopefully live ~ it did not happen, they lip synched, in fact they are hard to even see in this film due to the trippy nature of the film director. but this direction actually works very well with the film. I did like the High Quality Technocolor look and feel to the film that you might remember from the 1960's Batman Tv series. It has that bright and sharp look to it which really makes this film great ! I will recommend it to anyone wanting to seek out what the 1960's flipped out and wasted times was about, this film really has it all. Or if you just want to take yourself back to a really New and unique exciting time in the history of our world, Enjoy!!

Love it!Review created: 03/02/09

This movie makes me mad at who Roger Ebert became. This movie has it all: gratuitous sex, gratuitous drugs, and gratuitous violence. The special effects and dialogue are so ridiculous that it borders on brilliant. This is a MUST OWN!

Beyond the valley of the DollsThis movie is great as far exploiatation films go. It s a shot of pure late 60s early 70s kistch. Big hair, big eyelashes, and big breasts, the later is not revealed as much as the NC-17 rating lets on and should not be seen as a main criteria to view this film. The reason to see it is that the groovy dialouge is hilarous. John Lazar's character is over the top.

Buy For the Film But Not the ExtrasReview created: 08/06/06

As for the movie itself, there's not much I can say that hasn't already been said. This is one of my favorite films of all time. People call Russ Meyer a schlock artist and/or a pervert, and talk about his movies being "so bad they're good," but that's all a crock. He was a gifted film-maker who edited film in way that no one ever had before, who told a story in a way no one ever had before, who was a master at pacing, characters . . . And this is one of his masterpieces. As for the extras, I was somewhat disappointed. Hearing the actors argue and reminisce over the film was enjoyable for a while, but got old quickly. Roger Ebert's commentary was too dry to follow. The screen tests footage was fun, but not all that great. My feeling is that if you're buying this for the extras, don't. But of course if you're buying it for the film, go for it.
