yes generic. it's full of bitchy dialog and campy 60s stuff. worth seeing plus it has a great theme song. one of my favorite trash pieces.

There's also, "beyond the valley of the dolls" which is not as good.

Is the rest of this movie as awesome as this clip ?

It's not nice to pull someone's wig off.

As a fitting tribute to this pill-popping movie,

I imagine that the oxicotin queen will be popping more dolls than she can shake her Mark Leno voodoo doll at.

After the movie, watch for more Migden-manta rays on the streets. You know she's the one that's doing it!
