Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Lightdeossk Captivating movie !

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Uriah43 This movie begins with 3 members of a local motorcycle gang known as "the Vultures" playing a trick on some high school students during their graduation. Later that night a man named "Uncle Joe" (Huntz Hall) has a mild heart attack and as a result cannot operate his local gas station because of it. Fortunately, his niece, "June" (Kirsten Baker) comes up with a plan to invite her high school friends to help run it while Uncle Joe is recovering. What none of them realize however is the extent at which a new service station across the street has ruined Uncle Joe's business. And the owner of the new gas station, "Mr. Friendly" (Dave Shelley) has no intention of allowing anybody to interfere with his profits. What Mr. Friendly doesn't count on is the ingenuity of June furthered by the Vultures when they decide to join her team. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this is the kind of grade-B film which could have only been produced in the 70's with the music, hair styles and everything else clearly standing out. Yet in spite of the obvious low-budget, extremely simple plot and poor acting, the movie itself wasn't too bad all things considered. What I found most enjoyable was that the humor was so basic and corny that it was actually funny--in a weird sort of way. Likewise, having a couple of cute young actresses like Linda Lawrence (as "Betty") along with the aforementioned Kirsten Baker certainly didn't hurt either. That said, while this film clearly isn't a good picture by any means, it wasn't that bad either and because of that I have rated it as just slightly below average.

jfgibson73 Although not a "good" movie by any criteria, Gas Pump Girls was enjoyable for me because of its "attitude." By that, I mean I liked the outlook that it seemed to have towards its characters.The story is about several young girls trying to make a gas station into a successful business. It is owned by one of the girls' uncle, but he becomes ill and can't take care of it. They show a wonderfully spirited attitude towards making the job fun and helping the uncle out. Later, a gang of shady bikers looks like they may cause trouble, but end up being allies. They even turn out to be nice guys. Especially the character played by Ken Lerner, and actor that I must have seen many times before, but can't remember where (he guest-starred on half of the shows I watched as a kid growing up in the 80's).Gas Pump Girls has an air of exploitation and could probably be categorized as a sex comedy, but I thought it transcended that genre by being a genuinely nice movie. That's really the best word for how I felt about it--nice.

mdavidsonuk I first saw Gas Pump Girls (originally to be called Super Duper Service Station) at a drive-in theater in Dublin, Georgia during the summer of 1979. I went to see it mainly for Kirsten Baker, who had previously appeared on the 1970's t.v. series, James at 16. She was last seen in Friday the 13th Part 2 as one of the camp counselors. I briefly owned Gas Pump Girls on VHS video and it has just recently been released on DVD. I have the DVD and after scanning through it, I must say that the quality could have been a whole lot better. Anyway, the film itself is fun and really nothing more than that. It is nice to see the old veteran actors, Huntz Hall, Joe E. Ross and Mike Mazurki. A few of the other actors, such as Ken Lerner, went on to more respectable efforts. Apparently there was even a soundtrack album released from the film!! I'll bet that it is a very rare find these days and would be worth some money now. If you want to see a film that is a painless 90 or so minutes of pretty girls, a bit of topless nudity, some juvenile hijinks and some last performances by a few old veterans, then check out Gas Pump Girls.

metalrox_2000 Okay, for some reason, the lead in the film belts into song before the end. You have the guys roaming around dressed like the T-Birds from Grease, seemingly out of place. You have a lot a great T%A, and a plot, that, well, has been done before.Gas Pump Girls, much like Incoming Freshman, and much of the 1970's sex comedy drive in flicks, are in their own category. They aren't meant to be the greatest film ever made. They are made on the cheap, and to entertain, and they do just that. I'm willing to bet that one reviewer who commented on this film has never seen it. Gas Pump Girls is a great sex comedy, better then any of the sex comedies made to. The ones made today go direct to DVD, and seem to have a cookie-cutter direction to them. You can merge one to the other.That's different from Gas Pump Girls, Incoming Freshman, or H.O.T.S. The plots may have been the same, but there were always suttle differences. I really wish these flicks, these lost 70's gems, would find their way to DVD.
