THEY GAVE THEIR ALL FOR THE TEAM! Jack Hill spent the seventies specialising in tough female characters. He made movies about girl gangs (Switchblade Sisters) and women in prison (The Big Doll House, The Big Bird Cage), turned Pam Grier a star with Coffy and Foxy Brown, and contributed to the Cheerleaders line of drive-in favourites with The Swinging Cheerleaders. Kate, an undergraduate at Mesa University, goes undercover as a cheerleader for her college newspaper in order to expose ˜female exploitation in contemporary society'. But instead of oppression she finds... love, friendship and a bigger fish to fry: corruption in the football team, headed up by the coach and his pals. A favourite of Quentin Tarantino, who screened it at the very first Tarantino Film Fest, The Swinging Cheerleaders features a cast of cult favourites including Colleen Camp (Wayne's World, Game of Death), Rainbeaux Smith (Caged Heat, The Incredible Melting Man) and future Playmate of the Month Rosanne Katon.

Comedy drama directed by Jack Hill. The film follows Mesa University journalism student Kate (Jo Johnston) as she goes undercover in order to write an article on the demeaning nature of cheerleading. After infiltrating the college cheerleading squad, Kate is surprised to find she has a lot more in common with the rest of the girls than she initially thought, and quickly forms a number of unlikely friendships. Forgetting about her original assignment, Kate's focus is soon diverted to an even bigger story: the shocking discovery of an illegal betting ring involving teachers, coaches and players from the college football team.
