Programmer's Pick

When a dude ranch’s business plan involves stewardesses, gamblers, and a side order of masked chaos, you know you’re deep in the wilds of ‘70s sexploitation. Add the Ritz Brothers running amok and you’ve got a comedy-western hybrid that’s as much about bare skin as barroom brawls.

Overview

At the Lucky Dollar dude ranch, Ben Brewster faces financial trouble and hatches a scheme to lure high-rolling guests by installing casino equipment and offering them a taste of the wild west. Honey Morgan, meanwhile, oversees a group of young ladies trained to entertain the ranch's clientele. To staff a special charter flight for the incoming gamblers, Brewster recruits three stewardesses, promising them a vacation in exchange for their in-flight services. The new arrivals spark a series of lively events, including barbecues, costume parades, and rodeos. However, the festivities are threatened by a group of hooded horsemen targeting Brewster, while the comic Ritz Brothers turn the ranch upside down with their slapstick antics as they stumble through a variety of odd jobs.
