Roger Vadim's followup to "Barbarella" 1956 may be the only sexploitation crime film ever released by a major studio and managed to break just about every cultural taboo in the book even during the uncertain days of the early 1970s. The story and especially the filmmaking style is a strange response to the sexual revolution in 1970 in which a high school full of randy teachers and students in an unnamed Midwestern town become involved in a series of murders. Vadim's attempt to update .".And God Created Woman" from the male perspective has become a cult film that would be sued out of existence today and a fascinating look at the "revolution" from a middle America perspective.
