GOODNIGHT, SWEET MARILYN |
|
Legendary Texas
exploitation producer Larry Buchanan proves that the Mafia,
Castro, Bobby Kennedy, the CIA, the FBI, Elvis and the Russians
all did everything bad for the last year, including murder
Marilyn Monroe, in this conspiracy flick that completes his five-
picture assassination epic (the first four were "Naughty Dallas,"
"The Trial of Lee Harvey Oswald," "Goodbye Norma Jean" and "Down
On Us," which revealed the anti-rock music conspiracy that
systematically killed Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim
Morrison). In this expose, Larry reveals that Marilyn died three
days before her press conference to tell everything she knew
about Bobby Kennedy, the Mafia, Jimmy Hoffa and Cuba. This movie
gets a perfect 100 on the Sleaze Meter, with Misty Rowe as Norma
Jean Baker before her plastic surgery, and Paula Lane as Marilyn
AFTER the plastic surgery, and between em they sleep with half
the pork-bellied cigar-smoking pasty-face slime-meisters in
Hollywood. By the time she asks her buddy to shoot her up with a
little sodium pentathol, you're thinking, "Thank God, is it
almost over?" Eight breasts. One dead body. Wrist slitting.
Multiple aardvarking. Two rapes. "Whammo Ammo Girl" beauty
contest. Creep City photo sessions for True Detective magazine.
Weirdbeard Hollywood pool parties. Nightmare sequence in which
she sings "Happy Birthday" to President Kennedy in Madison Square
Garden. Casting couch Fu. Lesbo Fu. With Phyllis Coates as Norma
Jean's dead mother in a strait-jacket ("The tomcats are after
you! That's how it is, baby!"), Terrance Locke as the sleaziest
movie studio head ever seen on the screen ("She had kind of a
HOMEY quality"), Kenneth Hicks as the scuzzy FBI doctor ("You
know, when we're through here, drowning might be an option"),
Joyce Lower as the CIA psychiatrist ("You always relied on the
kindness of powerful men, DIDN'T you?"). Paula Lane has the best
line: "Do they have cameras in heaven?"
