That had to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen!

I remember seeing "Sextette" when it first came out and rather enjoyed it. Yes, it did require a little whilling suspension of disbelief, but it was fun. I have no idea if I would feel the same now.

"Myra Breckinridge" (Fox 1970) Rated X, based on the Gore Vidal book starring Raquel Welch as Myra was not a big hit either. But Mae was great and beautiful.
"Hi Cowboy. How tall are ya without your horse?"
"Well, ma'am I'm six feet, seven inches"
"Well, nevermind about the six feet. Let's talk about the seven inches."
The movie also starred Rex Reed (yeah, him), John Huston, Farah Fawcett (no Majors at that time), John Caradine and a mustache-less Tom Seleck.
Featuring music from Otis Redding, John Phillips, The Bergmans & Sammy Fain, Frank Loesser (no McCartney publishing), Harry Warren and Mack Gordon.
