The Girl With the Hungry Eyes
The film opens with lesbian lovers Kitty and Tiger speeding down the California highway, stopping to pick up hitchhiking Tommy at Kitty's insistence. Tiger doesn't take too kindly to the fact that Kitty and their new passenger start making out right in front of her, so stops the car and kicks them both out! Little does she know that Kitty has decided to switch sides and when the two horny young'uns start making love in a field, the voyeuristic Tiger jumps from the bushes and bashes Tommy's head in with a rock! She takes the distraught Kitty home, where she reminisces of how she became Tiger's sapphic companion and also of happier times with a bearded older male lover (William Rotsler again!). She awakens from her flashback in time for a birthday party, attended by all manner of dykes, baby butches, and femmes (including Pat Barrington in a throwaway role) and livened up by Tiger getting into a vicious catfight with a super-butch lesbo! Kitty grows tired of the lady-lovin' lifestyle and escapes from the shindig to the arms of her former lover...but Tiger won't let her get away so easily.
