LINDSAY BLOOM STARRING AS 'SIXPACK ANNIE' WITH JANNA BELLAN

Lindsay Bloom in SIXPACK ANNIE Year: 1975 Rating: **1/2

In a career neatly balancing mainstream episodic television like THE DUKES OF HAZZARD and exploitation cinema such as COVER GIRL MODELS, Lindsay Bloom is by far the cutest starlet to appear in the latter: providing a girl-next-door innocence within the infamously risque guilty-pleasure-driven super-low-budget cinema...

Herein an aesthetically perfect fit for the rural hangout romp SIXPACK ANNIE, where her titular character realizes a plot-line halfway through... to find a sugar daddy with enough cash to help her aunt pay for the family diner, where she waitresses with AMERICAN GRAFFITI carhop Jana Bellan, a cherubic brunette to Bloom's adorable blonde...

It's a shame the spunky pair couldn't be more involved in the first half's small-town adventures (including run-ins with handsome local Bruce Boxleitner) since their down-home-dazzling presence lights up the grungy one-horse town, from pickup-truck-cruising-exteriors to beer-guzzling-barroom interiors...

But once in Florida... where Annie gets bad advice from older bubbly-blonde Louisa Moritz, being thrust from one male dud to the next (mostly without sidekick Belllan)... the second-half fails to compliment an actress with enough natural charm to have carried things as far as she could — as SIXPACK ANNIE the character far exceeds the movie.
