Quick Answer

What is Three-Way Weekend about?

Three-Way Weekend is a 1979 American comedy film directed by Emmett Alston about two bisexual girls whose camping trip devolves into bizarre sexual escapades when they're pursued by an unhinged forest ranger and a wildman in a gorilla mask.

Programmer's Pick

Only in the late '70s could a sex comedy dream up a Nixon aide gone wild in a gorilla mask, a whip-wielding ranger, and bisexual hijinks—then gleefully refuse to make sense of any of it. The plot may be incomprehensible, but the commitment to camp and chaos is undeniable.

Overview

Two adventurous bisexual women venture into the woods for a camping getaway, only to find their weekend spiraling into absurdity. They’re trailed by a forest ranger with a whip and a penchant for communist paranoia, as well as a lewd figure hiding behind a gorilla mask. The duo crosses paths with a just-married couple and a cast of other unexpected characters, with marijuana and nudity marking the unfolding chaos. The film leans into sexploitation and erotic comedy, stringing together a sequence of outlandish encounters and a plot that delights in its own incoherence. Expect a feverish blend of camp, lust, and low-budget antics.
