CINDERELLA 2000 (1977)

Retro Seduction Cinema
Directed by Al Adamson
Starring Catherine Erhardt

It is the year 2047 and fornication is forbidden. Unless you are the surrogate stud for The Master Controller, in which case you get as much tail as you want. Then there is a party and our titular character is invited to the headquarters and she has wild sex with our surrogate stud. He falls madly in love with her and she runs off after they are done because the spell from her fairy godfather (That's right, I said godfather and no, he doesn't look like Marlon Brando) wears off and she has to hurry home to where she lives with her evil stepmother and two evil stepsisters. Actually, they aren't really all that evil, just horny.
And did I mention that if you get caught doing the horizontal bump that they shrink you down to Barbie doll size for six months?
Oh, and did I mention that this is a musical comedy?
Now, I realize that you all saw the name of the director and either smiled and said, 'Wheeeee!', but while those three people were doing that, the rest of you groaned out loud and said, 'Not Al Adamson!' Well, this isn't the Al you're used to hating. He shot most of this on a soundstage, the music isn't bad and the women are quite pleasant to look at. Couple that with the whole romp in not to be taken seriously at all and you have a pretty good little film on your hands.
Retro Seduction Cinema (www.retroseductioncinema.com) gives you your money's worth for this 30th anniversary edition. We get the feature film, the European version of the film, a full color booklet and the best for last;
Another commentary by the one and only Sam Sherman.
Just the commentary is worth the price of the disc. Sam Sherman has forgotten more about the golden age of exploitation than most people will ever learn. He always gives good commentary so you're stuck watching this flick at least three times. Once normally, then the Euro version and then back to the original for commentary. The commentary is really the only think that makes the musical number by the Roscoe The Robot bearable. I fast forward past that part when the commentary isn't on.
So, this is definitely a disc worth adding to your collection. If nothing more than to see such an accurate portrayal of what life will be like in the year 2047.
I can hardly wait.
