The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood (1980)
Second sequel to 1975's The Happy Hooker see's Hammer babe Martine Beswick take over the role of Dutch prostitute Xaviera Hollander from Lynn Redgrave and Joey Heatherton.
This amusing, risque and often downright rude comedy features a brilliant co-starring turn from tv Batman Adam West who steals the film, be it in bed with Beswick, having sex with her in a pool (Surely copied by Showgirls) or wandering round a swish hotel in drag. He's clearly having a blast as is Phil Silvers in sadly what amounts to no more than a couple of scene stealing cameos as a dodgy Hollywood mogul.
Beswick herself isn't shy with many nude scenes in what is really a camp sexploitation film and despite being a Cannon production (They didn't just make action movies) this feels straight out of the early seventies era of Confessions and Adventures of British slap and tickle fun.
Definitely not for the PC minded viewer.
