The most heinous crime is a guy or group of them raping a weak female unable to defend herself .. for that reason alone i found this film to be sick and disgusting ... makes you wonder what kind of sickp produced and directed it , howard freen is the world's biggest bunghole
1970s drive in curiosity, better production values for this type of film. Small town populated by what seems like models at every corner wearing no bras and willing to immediately sleep with the new office in town. Some criminal action later moves the movie in a different direction. Still a low brow movie given the very prominent role that women's breasts are given here.
"Dirty O'Neil" is something else. It starts with a violent robbery then it becomes a okay T&A movie before wrapping that forgotten robbery stuff up. It plays like an edited soft-core movie. By that I mean it never reaches the sex level of that genre but there is a bunch of welcome nudity. If this movie went for the PG crowd it would have been truly awful. But because it proudly went for the R crowd, it's actually watchable. Pretty stupid but watchable.
DIRTY O'NEIL is a rare little film from AIP, made as a softcore sex picture but with the kind of added grit that you'd expect from an early 1970s production. The protagonist is a cop who spends the running time bedding a string of impossibly beautiful young woman, all of whom seem especially eager to fall into bed with him. The wall-to-wall nudity sustains the running time for the first half hour, but then the film takes a darker turn. There are scenes of abuse and some extra character depth as various folk struggle with almost existential dilemmas, and all of this leads to a violent climax. The acting is nothing to write home about, but the film is better plotted than I'd expected, and the darker tone suits it well.
Dirty O'Neil (1974) is a movie I recently watched on Amazon Prime. The storyline is about a police officer who uses his sex appeal to get in good with all kinds of ladies. As a police officer there seems to be ladies around every corner and every one wants him. Will O'Brien ever be more than a womanizer? This movie is codirected by Leon Capetanos (Summer Run) and Lewis Teague (Cujo) and stars Morgan Paull (Blade Runner), Art Metrano (Police Academy 2 & 3), Jeane Manson (The Piano Player) and Katie Saylor (Supervan). The storyline for this picture is painful. For being a ladies man Officer O'Neil seemed to consistently struggle talking with the ladies. It felt like a writer who was a non-ladies man writing about a ladies man. There are all of the great nude scenes you'd expect from this era - shower scenes, locker room scenes, peeping-tom scenes, soft sex scenes, topless swimming scenes and every other soft porn scenario. I will say the final shootout came out of nowhere and was extremely entertaining and actually raised this grade an entire point for me for what was an underwhelming film until that point. I'd score this a 5/10 and would watch it if you can't find anything else interesting.

- TriviaWhen Morgan Paull was asked how he resisted the temptation of working around several gorgeous naked young women, he said, "Well let me tell you, I was happily married at the time so it was the greatest waste of talent in my life. My wife checked every night. She called the set to say, 'Have they wrapped yet, have they wrapped yet?' She wanted to know everything, so those girls, we had our scenes and that was the end of it."
