The Cheerleaders must be one of the most heavily censored erotic films around (I know of at least 4 different versions).That's amazing, given that there is no hard-core activity or male nudity. It may be testimony to the sheer erotic intensity the film generates. This is the so-called "hard R" version, the original release print, and it looks great. Included is a stills gallery of "Cheerleader Cheesecake", including what appear to be the motel room audition photos, and some incredible pooside shots of Stephanie Fondue. Fans of this film will be well rewarded.
The film's reputation as an erotic classic stems from numerous things that lift it above its competition: the girls are lovely, sexy and young (they actually look like high schoolers, not srippers); the photography is clear; the editing allows the action to unfold without a lot of jump cuts; the humor is genuinely funny; and the film develops a steady rhythm by quickly moving from one erotic scenario to another. In short, it delivers on its promise to be arousing, and it never lets up. If you liked the shower scene in Porkys, here's a whole movie's worth.
Like any truly great film, this one created a genre of imitations, none even remotely as good as the original. The other two films in this package are interesting only as examples of that, despite the presence of Rainbeaux Smith (Drum) in both.
The package includes a booklet with a good essay by Gary Hertz. All in all, a classy presentation, and thank you to Anchor Bay for doing a first-rate job with a deserving film.

This collection must have the highest proportion of skin to runtime I've seen from a skinflick (with a decent plot), especially the first one. Listen to the commentary for a wild description of how these young women were cast. For the price, this set is a real bargain.

I first saw this movie when I was about 14 years old, and let me tell you...in the late 1970's, for a teen to see a movie like this, well it was just AWESOME! I would actually consider this "soft porn" due to it's MANY nude scenes! If you like wacky comedy with very little plot and PLENTY of gratuitous nudity, then I HIGHLY RECCOMEND this set. ENJOY!!!

Yes! The dialogue is korny, the acting amateurish, and the plot unrealistic. But that's what gives these 70's classics their appeal! If T & A is what you like, then this series is for you. You won't find any Academy Award nominees here, so don't expect it! Just enjoy the gratuitous nudity that gives these films their character and see if you can spot a VERY YOUNG David Hasselhoff. ENJOY!

I enjoyed the first movie in the series as it had the most of what I wanted in this type of movie. Fun nude action.
The second movie is fun due to David Hasselhoff dancing round like a gooba, but it seems more like a musical than anything else.
The third isn't really worth watching. I watched it a week ago and can't remember anything worth mentioning about it.
Still the first movie makes up for the rest...if I'm being generous!

The first one was okay. Sexy and retro. The other two were a waste of time and money. Buy The Cheerleaders separately. The revenge and swinging are edited so much they are a rip off.

Another hip DVD set from the folks at Anchor Bay!!! A great collection of 3 Cheerleader films("The Cheerleaders","Revenge Of The Cheerleaders",and "The Swinging Cheerleaders"),classic 70's exploitaion "Grindhouse" films!!! Great extras include audio commentaries on all 3 film,plus some other goodies!!! Great picture and sound for films of these vintage!!! Nice booklet too!!! A note for you parents out there,these films are for mature adults,not the kiddies!!! A great blast from the past!!! Two thumbs up!!! Five stars!!! A+

The disks were miss labled. Only the first movie was any good the two sequals were awful. $35 is a rip for only one good movie.

The Cheerleaders Set is worthwhile to anyone a fan of cheerleaders. The first movie is clearly the best in the bunch. It's perfect, well not perfect but so entertaining and a good film to watch.

The other two are missing evrything that the first had, except it up the ante to a lesser degree and make a fool of themselves. It gets a recommedation only for the first movie.

i really enjoyed the first movie.the cheerleaders..the other two barely kept my eyes open..i dont see how they should be sold as a set..clearly the first is worth the price of all three..i would still recommend buying them all jus because of the nostalgia of a bygone era
