Mamie Van Doren and her kid sister are busted for hitchhiking and skinny-dipping while passing through the South on their way to Hollywood. They're sentenced to 30 days on a coed work farm, where they pick cotton all day and boogie to rock & roll in the mess hall at night. Musical interludes include "Cottonpicker" performed a cappella in a cotton field by Eddie Cochran, and Mamie wiggling her way through "Go, Go, Calypso" and "Oobala Baby", her generous physical attributes showcased prominently throughout. As bad movies go, it's fantastic, trash for the ages, and as such, should not be missed.
