Give director Dimitri Logothetis some credit. Not only did he make this movie, but he also directed Slaughterhouse Rock and Kickboxer: Retaliation.
Daphne "Zigs" Ziegler (Tricia Leigh Fisher,* Stick, C. H. U. D. II: Bud the C. H. U. D) has defeated every way that her parents try to tame her. As she works in a bank, a criminal comes in and tries to get her to give up all the cash. She responds by jumping on top of the counter and stripping off her goth outfit, which is one way to get out of getting shot by a bank robbery.
Her parents decide to send ZIgs and her fraternal twin sister Jennifer (Lisa Lörient) to Greece's most elite boarding school, Ogilvy Academy. Soon, they find themselves in two different social groups, as Daphne becomes one of the Subs - along with Zero (Patricia Arquette), Yuko (Kimberly B. Delfin, Body Rock) and Torch (Paris Vaughan) - and Jennifer becomes a Preen and starts hanging out with mean girls like Samantha Falconwright, who is played by Julie K. Smith, one of only four women to be in both Playboy and Penthouse,** where she was Pet of the Month for February 1993. She also trained with Stella Adler and is in so many movies that I've watched intently, including the works of Andy Sidaris (she's Cobra in The Dallas Connection, Return to Savage Beach and Day of the Warrior) and Jim Wynorski (The Bare Wench Project, The Witches of Breastwick).
The girls have one problem that brings them together and that is the dean of the school, Mr. Crawley (Dennis Cole) who is taking nude photos of all of them with hidden cameras when he isn't sneaking drugs on them and using them to move weight.
Writer Jeff Begun also did the script for Neon City and Saturday the 14th while the other writer, Dan Hoskins, was the writer of Chopper Chicks In Zombietown. It's a strange movie that at the same time wants to be empowering and then you have Julie K. Smith doing nude scenes, but then it's girls working together and discovering the power of playing in synth bands. I think the film's third writer, Melanie J. Alschuler, may be why it feels so much less a teen sex comedy and more a coming of age film. She went on to be an assistant to the Olsen Twins on their Our First Video and The Olsen Twins Mother's Day Special.
*Her sister Joely Fisher is also in this and to my amazement, they're both half-sisters of Carrie Fisher. Their dad is Eddie and their mom is Connie.
**It says this on Julie K. Smither's IMDB page, but I know that only Alexandria Karlsen, Linn Thomas, Victoria Zdrok were both Playmates and Pets. Teri Weigel was the April 1986 Playmate and was in Penthouse - but not as a Pet - in November 1985 before acting in Cheerleader Camp, Glitch!, Savage Beach, Predator 2, Return of the Killer Tomatoes and adult movies. Ursula Buchfellner was the October 1979 Playmate and German December 1977 Playmate before appearing in Penthouse - but not as a Pet - also in November 1985. She also is in Devil Hunter and Sadomania for Jess Franco. None of these magazines or their titles matter anymore.
