Yeah, Russ Meyer is underrated as a filmmaker. Technically he was stellar and his films are always entertaining. Not sure Horror would have been something he would have wanted to try, but I would have watched, for sure!

Still amazes me how Roger Ebert shrieked and railed about early 80's horror flick when his script has many of the same things

I love it too, FD, and yes, the music is a blast. I find myself randomly humming the songs all the time. I didn't know Cynthia had passed away. Such a gorgeous woman, and you're right, she did a decent job on screen. In fact, Meyers seemed to have a knack for getting fairly solid performances out of his cast members, no matter how much acting experience they had. Wow, all this Meyers talk is making me want to watch Beyond again!
