Rene Bond week (August 11 – 17) Rene Bond could brighten up even the most dreary productions, and she was in plenty of them. In the early adult scene she was one of the better actors, particularly when it came to comedy, though she could squeeze into some leather and throw the whips around when the role called for it. Bond appeared in somewhere near 100 films, thanks to her affable professionalism she worked with many filmmakers multiple times and regularly performed with her boyfriend Ric Lutze. Her career received an enhancement when she became one of the first stars to get a boobjob. She retired from film in the late-70s just as the porno chic era was dying down, but before the video era. You can find her in a ton of SWV titles, so take yer pick!
Frankie Lee (Rene Bond) and her boyfriend Johnnie Ellis (Ric Lutz) have a tough relationship. She’s becoming a big star as a singer and can’t be around whenever he wants her. He has a job she doesn’t understand as a computer programmer and when she comes to work, she’s so attractive that even his CPU hits on her. Come on, she’s Rene Bond. Of course a mainframe is going to fall in love.
The secret is that Johnnie is also sleeping with Alice (Cyndee Summers), Frankie’s best friend. They have a meet-up in her marital bed just in time for her husband Ray (John Barnum) to get home and put him in the hospital, where Frankie visits and give him an old fashioned as both of his arms are broken.
On another secret date, Johnnie tells Alice that he only keeps Frankie around for the money so that he can patent his computer invention. And despite him figuring out how to get both of them in bed at the same time, this story can only end in tragedy.
Rene Bond is amazing in this, singing, bring dramatic and doing comedy all in an hour of screen time. This is a softcore film, a rarity for almost everyone in the cast as well as director and writer Alan Colberg. It even has racing footage and feels like it was an attempt to make a real movie and not just a smoker.
I wish the whole movie was about that computer trying to have sex with Rene Bond.
