Doris’ second feature was filmed partly at The Coral Castle (in Homestead, Florida), which is a sprawling mansion, built from Coral rocks and has an interesting history itself. The film concerns the exploits of two rocket scientists who blast off to the moon in a toy rocket ship. A three million dollar inheritance financed the expedition. They sit right next to each other but talk to each other via radio mikes and headphones, and they sleep through their landing. When they get out of the rocket shop in goofy pajama-type outfits, they find an area on the moon that looks a lot like a nudist camp in Florida. The woman are topless with bathing suit bottoms, they have fuzzy pipe cleaner antennas and speak telepathically to each other. Wishman makes a cameo in the first scene. You’ll see a theater marquee’ that says ‘Hideout in the Sun’ on it. Shelby Livingston is one of the moon cuties and would later have a bigger part in H.G. Lewis’ Maniacs

Doris had been making this direct to video feature for about seven years. She may have shot some footage for it in the mid-s but most of it was filmed in and . It took her a while to raise the money and devote the time needed to edit it. Along the way she met Beau Gillespie who was struggling to edit his low budget film. Gillespie decided to produce Wishman’s next film about the same time Elite was preparing A Night to Dismember for DVD release, which led to the commentary track recording that re-united Wishman and C. Davis Smith. They decided to try and work together again after Wishman finished the film for Gillespie.

Once-nerdy Arthur (Fernandez) has turned into a man who has strangled his fiancé, and raped other women. A detective (Hunter) discovers women wearing gold earrings make Arthur psychotic. Why? Well you see Arthur was jealous of his very sexually active and well-endowed friend Felix who also went crazy for gold earrings. Felix died and Arthur blackmailed a doctor into performing The Amazing Transplant. Seems men really do think with their penis. Wild Wishman outing that predates films that covered similar themes such as Percy (Ralph Thomas, ). (Note: actual on screen credits were not available to verify credits.) (2) and (3

Doris asked her cameraman C. Davis Smith for a plot idea. Smith had seen Suddenly (Lewis Allen, ) with Frank Sinatra, and told Doris the plot of that film. From this, Doris created an ultra low-budget film. Two assassins claiming to be plumbers hold two lesbian roommates and their visiting friend hostage, while they wait to assassinate the prime minister of ‘Netia’ from the apartment window. This means we have time for showers, lesbian lovemaking, strip-teases, whilst women are whipped, beaten, raped and even killed. Then there is the dream sequence, which involves characters in drag that is something which must be seen. (2

Agent 73 (played not by Chesty Morgan, but by Tournay) is strangled right after the credits. Her three beautiful daughters — Sandy, Ginny and Nancy — attend her funeral and then spring into pre- Charlie Angels action as they seek revenge and try to get their 3 million dollar inheritance. Well they don’t seem to be in a big hurry to seek revenge as they all seem to enjoy teasing men or trying on fashions. Eventually some people get killed and the killers are brought to justice. A loud, garish ’70s feel permeates the entire film from the weird camera angles, fashions, and platform shoes to the (now familiar to Wishman fans) use of ashtrays and goblets to off people with. From the advertisements: “They love… They kill… There’s nothing they wouldn’t do!”

Although Wishman denied the rumor for years, C. Davis Smith, Annie Sprinkle, and others have come forth and admitted Wishman directed two hardcore films. This was the first of the two. Wishman apparently did not direct the hardcore sex and left the room, leaving C. Davis Smith, and perhaps someone else, to direct the action. But everything else in the film is supposedly trademark Wishman… or so I’ve heard. I haven’t seen this one. (Note: actual on screen credits were not available to verify credits.)
