Tagline: Her Friends Call Her Jail Bait...Her Clients Call Her Anytime!

Plot: Vicki is seventeen and her older friends call her Jailbait. Her boyfriend Robert is frustrated because Vicki doesn't want to do the wild thing, but he's willing to wait. After a party gets out of hand, Vicki escapes with the help of Lorraine, who takes her in as a house guest. While Lorraine teaches Vicki etiquette, Robert wonders what happened to his girlfriend. And Vicki soon learns more about Lorraine's job as an "executive liaison."



My rating: 5/10

Will I watch it again? Not unless that babysitter shows up at my place with the DVD tucked into her cutoff shorts and halter top.

Man, this is a let down. I thought Lorraine was going to turn Vicki out but no.  Vicki just stays at her place for a while.  She gets to drink and learn the about the finer things.  She allows herself to be at a middle aged man's house who, thinking she's legal, wants to fuck her. When she does he has a non-fatal heart attack and Vicki's old boyfriend shows up when the ambulance is there and she decides to go back to her old life and boyfriend.  There's about 9 more minutes of some shit that goes on at a party and then it's over.




It's very uneventful and nothing like the poster, tagline, etc.  But then that's what exploitation does.  The marketing department did their job.  I'm sure a shitload of drive-in goers left disappointed...that is unless they went with their significant other and everyone left happy having gotten oral or a handy by the time the credits rolled.  I didn't get one, therefore I'm not happy with this picture.
