UNHOLY ROLLERS 1972 (SHOUT FACTORY)

I start off the year 2014 with a movie I reviewed here last summer on a bootleg, but now review it again based on this great new release from Shout.

Vernon Zimmerman directed this cult classic starring the incredibly sexy Claudia Jennings as a young woman who enters the roller derby and fins that she really likes it and intends to become the best there ever was.

She puts up with a lot of harassment and crap from people, but she makes her goal come true. Jennings does her usual great job and the Roller Derby scenes are very well done. I loved the Roller Derby and still do, but it isn't what it used to be thanks to the liberal PC crowd, but this movie takes me back to a much better time.

A true cult film that Shout included on their set entitled "4 Cult Movie Marathon Vol. 1". The great cast also includes Louis Quinn, Roberta Collins, Betty Anne Rees, Jay Varla and Joe E. Tata. One of the best films around and well worth a look. Jennings steals the show and is ALWAYS fun to watch.

Claudia...taken way too young at the age of 29....This is one film fan who still misses you..
