DR. GOLDFOOT AND THE BIKINI MACHINE

The gang's all here!  That is, the gang from all those beach party movies that were so popular in the 60's.  There's Annette and Frankie, oh and don't forget Deborah.  Silly movie, silly dialogue, silly music...that's why it's so fun to watch.  They just don't make movies like this anymore!  According toVideo Hound's Golden Movie Retriever (1966) it gives its synopsis as:  A mad scientist employs gorgeous female robots to seduce the wealthy and powerful, thereby allowing him to take over the world.  American International Pictures
