Pick-up (1975)




2 sexy hippie chicks get more than they bargained for when they hitch a ride with groovy hippie dude in his nifty mobile bus home.

I expected this to be a trashy drive-in theater B movie, which it virtually is, but instead it's a slightly pretentious hippie trippy road movie altogether with dream sequences, flashbacks, nudity and sex and weird spiritual seances. The director obviously aimed at the art crowd, but I'm certain he never got there. Nevertheless it's entertaining in its own kind of way, if not a bit boring.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention: the soundtrack is truly out of this world!

You'll find a good review and more photos at Mad Mad Mad Mad Movies.
