Hollywood High (1977 film)

Hollywood High is a 1977[1] American sex comedy film. The film is generally regarded as being of very low quality,[1][2] with one retrospective review calling it "a shockingly inept piece of teen sexploitation" and remarking, "Even for a dubious genre like this, this movie reaches a level of badness that would make even the most jaded exploitation filmmakers pause, and subsequently resolve never to reach such a low point. Practically every department in this movie - acting, writing, directing, etc. - is at the very bottom of the barrel."[3] Despite its poor reception, the movie had an unofficial[4] sequel, Hollywood High Part 2, in 1981, which was likewise panned.[4]
