Sun Bunnies (1976)

aka Beach Bunnies, aka Red Hot and Sexy

How bad is it? One of the dreariest 70's soft-core films, written by Ed Wood, Jr.
Should you see it? Not unless you must see everything Ed Wood was involved with.


This was the last film that Ed Wood Jr. had anything to do with, almost a remake of Stephen Apostoloff's (A.C. Stephen's) own"Snow Bunnies," both of which are in the "Big Box of Wood" box set. A reporter is sent to investigate whether or not a celebrity is gay, and/or possibly planning a sex change. The rest of the film centers around four girls who travel, slowly, to the beach, then form couples with locals, separate, have long dull sex scenes, occasionally reconnect for some bad dialogue to bridge scenes and then leave the beach, slowly. The first few minutes have some bizarre dialogue that only Wood could write; the rest of the limited entertainment value comes from the horrendous, even for 1970's porn, clothing and the minimalist interiors (two rooms, tops) that recycle props from other films by Apostoloff and Wood.
