Softcore sexploitation filmmaker Bethel Buckalew was really a man ahead of his time. Long before anyone else, he was making movies that completely dispensed with anything remotely resembling a plot in order to focus one one long sex scene after another. I don't personally consider this a good thing, but I can't dispute that the guy was a true pioneer of sorts.
The title of this movie is, of course, a porno parody of the much more well-known Hollywood classic "Midnight Cowboy". If you find the title hilariously funny, then get ready to laugh! But if not, the movie itself is NOT gonna get any better. A dimwitted country bumpkin comes to Los Angeles to seek fame and fortune. He doesn't find it, but he does fall ass-backwards into a whole lot of sex. He first gets picked up by a swinging couple and he and the wife take turns going down on each other in the back seat while her perverted husband watches from the front in what is a pretty long sex scene, but an incredibly short road trip from bumf**k Alabama to Los Angeles. He then wanders into a brothel in Hollywood and goes to bed with ALL the prostitutes even though he is a hayseed schmuck with no money. He is then hired to drive around a van/mobile cathouse. He falls in love with a prostitute (Debbie Osbourne) and, well, actually that's about it.
Buckalew actually made a number of sex-saturated, Southern-fried "hicksploitation" films (he was kind of the Colonel Sanders of softcore smut). The only difference here is that most of this film takes place in Los Angeles, so he didn't have to pass off Californian locales as the Deep South. Many of the girls are also surprisingly pretty--not just average-looking actresses with nice bodies like Sharon Kelly or Talie Cochran (but then they're not even remotely talented like Kelley or Cochrane either). The best is Debbie Osbourne who plays his love interest "Bernice". (If you like her in this, check her out in "Cindy and Donna" where she plays the horniest female teen virgin in the history of female teen virgins). This about the tenth Buckalew film I have stumbled across by complete accident in the last year (he was either very prolific or he is stalking me in some weird way). They are ALL pretty bad, and this one is about the same as the rest.
