Cover Girl Models Movie Reviews

Another winner from New World and Cirio Santiago.

Enjoyable, brief ‘n’ breezy drive in fare from New World that serves as quite a good companion piece to “Fly Me”. “Cover Girl Models” follows a trio of luscious young women – Barbara (Pat Anderson), Claire (Lindsay Bloom), and Mandy (Tara Strohmeier) – as they have misadventures funny, serious, trashy, and action packed. The difference is that in “Fly Me” the ladies were stewardesses; here they’re fashion models. They travel with photographer Mark (John Kramer) to Asia for a series of shoots; the fun starts when a valuable roll of microfilm is secretly sewed inside one of their dresses. “Cover Girl Models”, running a respectable 74 minutes, has all the ingredients to make it easily digestible stuff for exploitation fans. It’s mostly effective as a showcase for the charms of these babes, as they strut their stuff and we get a good look at those bodies; there’s a healthy dose of bare breasts. The screenplay is by Howard R. Cohen, whose other credits include “The Unholy Rollers”, “The Young Nurses”, “Saturday the 14th”, and “Deathstalker”, and prolific Cirio Santiago is the producer / director; he’d previously worked with actress Anderson on “Fly Me” and “T.N.T. Jackson”. This being shot in the Philippines, there’s naturally a role for the ever welcome Vic Diaz, and Ken Metcalfe, two guys familiar to fans of Filipino cinema. There’s also a very nice cameo for Mary Woronov, appearing quickly early on and giving us an eyeful of some lovely legs. The music score by D’Amarillo is often extremely amusing and Santiago keeps the story moving along well, preventing it from ever getting boring and treating us to the usual not-terribly-well- staged fight scenes; the climactic shootout is a hoot. This is the kind of thing where it doesn’t matter how forgettable it may be in the end, it’s pretty fun for the duration. Seven out of 10.

Entertaining 70’s drive-in fluff

Three beautiful American models — chipper Barbara (lovely Pat Anderson), sweet Claire (the equally fetching Lindsay Bloom), and ditsy novice Mandy (the adorable Tara Strohmeier) — find themselves in considerable jeopardy during a modeling assignment in Singapore after an invaluable roll of microfilm is sewed into one of their gowns. Director Cirio H. Santiago, working from a blithely inane script by Howard R. Cohen, relates the amiably silly story at a snappy pace, maintains a breezy’n’easy good-natured tone throughout, delivers a copious amount of tasty female nudity, and stages the occasional martial arts fight with an endearing ineptitude that’s good for a few unintentional laughs. This movie is further energized by the spirited acting by a neat cast of familiar 70’s exploitation cinema regulars: Bloom, Strohmeier, and Anderson are all comely, sexy, and charming as the titular trio, John Kramer contributes a solid performance as slick’n’smarmy photographer Mark, and the ubiquitous Vic Diaz excels in one of his trademark oily villain roles as the nefarious Kulik, plus there are amusing bits by Mary Woronov as uptight executive Diane and Rhonda Leigh Hopkins as the snippy and stuck-up Pamela. Felipe Sacdalan’s sunny cinematography gives the picture an attractive bright look. D’Amarillo’s bouncy’n’groovy score hits the right-on happening spot. Best of all, the tight 73 minute running time ensures that this flick never gets dull or overstays its welcome. A really enjoyable diversion.

Very disappointing film

“They’re fast. They’re beautiful. They’re deadly. They have to be….to survive”. That’s the tagline of “Cover Girl Models” on my VHS cover, and based on that and on the names of Cirio H. Santiago and Pat Anderson (who kicked a lot of butt the same year in the same director’s “T.N.T Jackson”), I was expecting an action film with tough girls. Disappointingly, there is very little action in this movie and nearly all of it is done by men (yawn). In truth, nothing much happens throughout the film, there are endless filler sequences, the main plot is murky, the various subplots are introduced and then dropped, and even the shootout climax is weak. The girls are infectiously cute and occasionally nude, but neither them nor the exotic locations (Hong Kong and Singapore) can stop the 70-minute running time from feeling more like 2 hours! (*)
