From Google.com:
"Bad Girls from Mars" is a 1990 low-budget comedy/sci-fi slasher B-movie directed by Fred Olen Ray. The film is a spoof of the filmmaking industry and centers on a murder mystery that unfolds during the production of a fictional sci-fi film also titled Bad Girls from Mars.
Plot Summary
The plot revolves around the set of a cheap sci-fi flick where a string of leading actresses are mysteriously murdered one by one. The producers, eager to cash in on the insurance policies and publicity, continue the production and hire a notorious, voluptuous European sex symbol named Emanuelle (played by Edy Williams) as the new lead. As Emanuelle arrives in Hollywood and begins her wild lifestyle, the killings continue, and detectives attempt to identify the masked killer among the cast and crew. The film is known for its meta-fictional style, campy tone, and significant amount of nudity, typical of the "B" movie genre.
Key Details
Reception
The movie has been described as "hilarious trash" by some B-movie fans, while others found it to be below average even for its genre. It is generally considered a low-budget spoof that doesn't take itself seriously, with its primary appeal being to fans of campy, exploitation-style films. The film was financially successful for its distributor, Lionsgate, reportedly tripling its money.
You can watch the official trailer on IMDb or stream the movie on services like Fandango at Home or Apple TV.
