Sexploitation meets travelogue as Acapulco's so-called secrets are laid bare—softcore style.
ACAPULCO UNCENSORED
Hidden cameras reveal the seamier side of one of the world’s wildest cities. For the first time, see Acapulco uncovered, where young women perform all sorts of incredibly perverse acts in the secret houses of pleasure.
Acapulco Uncensored is a 1968 American documentary-drama film directed by Donald A. Davis that presents staged softcore sex scenes under the guise of a fake travelogue exploring Acapulco’s hidden pleasures.
Synopsis
Condescending narration tries to contrast Mexican slums with high-society folk getting down to do the nasty (softcore style). A wife-swapping session by a pool features full frontal nudity, but looks like a sequence lifted from some feature film.
Local prostitution is presented unglamorously and in boring fashion. At one point two hookers demonstrate lesbian sex -unarousing and patently phony.
Kathy Williams displays her torpedo-shaped breasts as an American tourist named Marsha, seduced by a water ski boat owner Ramon. This acted out scene is supposedly "reality".
A nightlife segment features a busty young novice in a brothel but we don't even get to see her topless.
Film concludes with an idiotic sequence on the narrator's boat with buxom redhead Linda O'Bryant camping it up as a dominating lesbian whore, who gives both our hero and his deckhand Mario a hard time.

Why Cult
Enjoy the 'exposé' conceit as hidden cameras supposedly reveal Acapulco's seamier side—though most of it is staged with familiar porn talent.
Expect a cavalcade of softcore encounters—wife swapping by the pool, lesbian trysts, and more, all presented in typical sexploitation style.
Victor Izay's sailor narrator delivers a running commentary that contrasts high-society debauchery with the city’s less glamorous side, dripping with vintage attitude.
Blending fake documentary tropes with a sexploitation travelogue, the film sits squarely in the mondo and exploitation traditions of the late 1960s.
