Offbeat sex farce from Ed Wood's late period.
4 July 2002
"One Million AC/DC" is one in the line of sexploitation films that Ed Wood wrote late in his career. I use the word "wrote" generously, as there is little more than ten minutes of dialogue in the whole film.

The "plot" revolves around a group of cave people who eat and have sex a lot. They are being kept in their cave by a dinosaur that lives just outside, keeping them from going out. Ultimately they hatch a plan that involves inventing the bow & arrow in order to kill it. There is also a sub-plot involving a cave girl held captive by a gorilla. (Shades of "Bride and the Beast.")

The sex is soft-core, but all throughout this movie. Some of it (especially the deflowering of a virgin with a sacred stick) can be quite disturbing, rather than titillating, as it is meant to be. The cast (at least the ones we see having sex) are all attractive and the various justifications for sex scenes can be quite amusing.

Overall, only get this film if you are a big fan of Ed's and want everything he worked on. Otherwise, there's little of his writing style to be found here.
