So Bad It's Good
If you are looking for a proper introduction to Mae West the legend, go rent She Done Him Wrong. If you are an unrepentant fan of 70s camp, this is your Christmas morning. Nowhere else on this planet are you going to find Keith Moon, Ringo Starr, Alice Cooper (in a perm that defies description), Dom Deluise, and Regis Philbin together in one place until the afterlife. Sextette, IIRC, is based upon one of West's plays and is basically a compendium of some of her best one-liners stitched into a wafer-thin plot involving a comedy of errors. One wedding night, five interfering ex-husbands, and disintegrating peace talks happening in the same hotel...just like in real life.The music will make you cringe, and if you were born after 1990 you aren't going to recognize anybody. As a curiosity in cult cinema, however, I think it's worth the 2.99 rental - Keith Moon's turn alone is worth the price of admission.
