The last few times I've been in my local used CD/DVD store, they've had a copy of "The First Nudie Musical." Is it worth getting? I saw it when I was a kid late one night on cable, but the only things I can remember are the dancing dildoes and that Diana Canova was in it (playing a Latina?). Any opinions? Thanks in advance for any feedback!

It is a classic. I have it as part of my collection. Nothing better than watching Cindy Williams surrounded by topless women and trying to act.

It's a camp classic! The dancing dildo scene is PRICELESS.

Is it the 26th Anniversary Special Edition? I wouldn't buy any non-special versions of anything that's been released in a special version.

Yes buy it! My friend and I watched this when we were like 8 and we had no idea what was going on.

It has dancing dildos!

I was obsessed with the original cast of Godspell as a young man and of course, Stephen Nathan is in it.

Here's a link that discusses the special edition, unfortunately the good grade went for the extras, so you should get that, if you get any:

Of course, the mastermind behind this is Bruce Kimmell, formerly of Varese Sarabande and Fynsworth Alley records, who regularly posts on Talkin' Broadway's ALL THAT CHAT.

I don't think it's worth it. I watched it just recently and I thought it was terrible.

Rent it on Netflix first and then see if it's something you want to buy and keep forever. Updated On: 7/13/05 at 05:24 PM
