Desperate Teenage Lovedolls is one of the great unheralded no-budget movies. It deserves to be put on a shelf with Jim Van Bebber's Deadbeat At Dawn, Scooter McCrae's Shatter Dead, Buddy Giovinazzo's Combat Shock, and John Waters's Mondo Trasho.
This underground Indie trash classic is a razor sharp, wacky, furious, lurid low-rent teens dreaming of the goods, and finding out it comes at a price on the dynamic and raw punk scene. The pulpy story has a striking individuality to it, although the narrative is downright messy.
This was a small gem of a bootleg VHS amongst friends in my teenage years (the mid-80's). Ultra-cool, campy story of a girl group playing ultra-cool rock 'n' roll.
This is a campy little movie that looks like a person afflicted with Parkinson's disease shot most of it; a corny punk trash flick that follows the rise to fame and fortune of the all-girl teen band the Lovedolls. Chock full of SHOCKING and OUTRAGEOUS behavior, hilariously bad acting, and a pretty good 80's punk soundtrack.
