James M. Nederlander Theatre 24 W. Randolph Street, Chicago, IL - ( Previously known as The Oriental ) -  3D Presentation

3D Presentation

THE PLAYMATES is another plotless excursion into three-dimensional flesh exploration, with Becky Sharpe (THE TEASER) as a sexologist providing narration over various “case studies” of people having sex, almost having sex, and covering all manner of dating procedures and sexual kinks, including her own search for true love. None of it occurs in sequence or with any rhyme or reason, it’s just various bits thrown together in a mish-mash like M 3-D, but a good deal more entertaining than that film. At least most of the humor here is actually funny, like a microphone-wielding Becky Sharpe cruising through a suburban neighborhood, walking past thieves on the run, searching for a peeping tom in action, a TV panel with a porn actress, an old lady race car driver, a Black Panther, and a five-star general, a candlelight breakfast with “an orgasm in every spoonful” of Swingers cereal, and Ms. Sharpe is a constant source of amusement as the uptight psychologist.

There are some great sex scenes, like a porno stud who picks up a hitchhiker and they screw in a garage, Sharpe having graphic sex with her love interest in a fantasy setting of a brass bed in a grassy field, and to add more kooky thrills, Sharpe has an off-the-wall dream sequence with a pointing screaming topless woman with garish lipstick, a ride up a rollercoaster, and a guy pushing a broom into the 3-D camera. Look fast for Con Covert (A SCREAM IN THE STREETS), a regular comic relief and transvestite support player, both in and out of drag! THE PLAYMATES is not always successful, but most of the running time is an enjoyable 70s romp, and unlike M 3-D, it’s never boring despite the irregular structure of the film - Review by (Casey Scott)
