DIRECTOR : Charles F. Hass
STARRING : Mamie Van Doren, Mel Torme , Paul Anka, Ray Anthony, Maggie Hayes, Cathy Crosby, Gigi Perreau
TONY'S COMMENTS : Mamie Van Doren plays Silver Morgan a rebellious girl who becomes a suspect in an accidental death. She is sent to "Girls Town", a correctional facility for women that is run by nuns. This cult film is an unusual but unique motion picture. It is 50's nostalgia at its campiest & even features Paul Anka singing "Ave Maria". "Girls Town" is certainly a teen movie with a difference & a must see for Mamie fans.

The Sheriff Was A Lady [DVD](1964) DVD
Talk about making a German spectacle out of itself! This European sagebrusher is unlike anything you've ever seen before, a tale of Black Bill (German Elvis-wannabe Freddie Quinn), a singing Teutonic cowpoke in search of his parents' killer, and Anita, the sexy female sheriff searching for those same creeps, who also swiped her father's gold. Mamie Van Doren is also featured. Wow! Standard; Soundtrack: English.
Voyage To The Planet Of The Prehistoric Women [DVD](1968) DVD

The gals wear clamshell bikinis, communicate telepathically and worship a pterodactyl! With Mary Mark and Paige Lee. 79 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English. Plays All Regions.
