The acting is so bad that apparently none of the performers ever got another job in the movies, and the costumes in Ben Hur seem less dated that those on display here.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A terrific example of efficient, resourceful filmmaking, and its depiction of urban ills is, if anything, all too prophetic.
To watch Switchblade Sisters is to visit a never-never land of shopworn media images colliding in a tabloid high school of the mind.
Sublime, exploitative camp.
Just good enough to make it understandable why someone else might really like it. And it's just bad enough to make you wonder about such a person.
