Plot
The movie about a female detective who is forced to go undercover as a stripper in order to investigate a recent murder.
Production
The film was inspired by a visit Katt Shea and her husband and writing partner Andy Ruben made to a strip club. She pitched the idea to Roger Corman who agreed to finance it.[2]
Criticism
Kay Lenz complained publicly about the film's editing and "exploitative" ad campaign aimed at the print media.[3]
Reception
