    "Joe's" is still there, "Pyramid" has been torn down!

    Just watched this on laserdisc and loved it! When I saw that this was filmed in Sacramento, where I live, I went to the actual location (which is easy to find since the street signs are visible in the movie) and saw the old run-down place is STILL standing, it is now a CA Recycling Center. The big station across the street was torn down and paved over though! I need to find the soundtrack album now, the disco music in this is great!

    Simultaneously stupid, fun and good

    How can you not love a disco teen exploitation film about five girls running a gas station - and it's a MUSICAL to boot! The songs are ridiculous and the plot is too, but it's not so predictable that there aren't a few amusing moments. I've seen bigger mainstream pictures with lots of critical acclaim that were complete crud - at least this can top the best of the worst.

    Decent

    It wasnt half bad. SANDY Johnson's breasts were amazing. God I hate Father Time. Rikki Marins buttocks were very nice. I can see why old Cheech scooped that up. This is definitely worth a watch.

    Decent exploitation film almost has the right parts.

    How could any nut forget GAS PUMP GIRLS? This one possibly started the light "exploitation comedies" that flowed into the early 80s mainstream. It appears that all the dirty filth invading theater screens since then suddenly gave way to this picture that PORKY'S would later follow. You'll most likely expect the home video version being drastically cut of any excessive garbage, but what's the difference? Don't be surprised to find this one fairly delightful, very amusing, and less profane, because that's the way films like this should be. Still "adults only" fun, but not at the extreme (unless an uncut edition surfaces!). I hate how movies like this offer a plot where "getting revenge" hampers an already sweet story of five young girls running shop, so that kind of hurts it. If you're addicted to shot-on-video porn (and I hope not!), this isn't for you. But I know you're honest! GAS PUMP GIRLS, while worth a good night's rent, is a surprisingly overlooked gem that needed greater attention. A fine reference of cult moviedom. Check out the video box cover and see for yourself!

    Cult Classic of the 80's

    Are you in the mood for a movie like Grease? Well, unfortunately this is not it. The soundtrack is very Saturday Night Fever, however the movie itself sets the tone for the rest of the decades achievements Animal House and Porky's. Okay so the acting isn't great. The girls are hot, there's nudity and there's even a guy named Pee Wee(Porky's character) in it. Overall I'd say if your going to rent some B movie this is one to give a shot.

    • Trivia
      Of the two gas stations at which the movie was shot, the super center gas station no longer exists, and in its location is a recycling center. But the small gas station that played Joe's service station, bizarrely, still remains today [to date, February 2022 - c/- Google Maps), at 3201 Marysville Boulevard, Sacramento, California, USA - and is run-down and decrepant, ironically, like the state of Joe's filling station at the start of the movie.
