Description

Video show host Mia Moore (Chrystale Wilson: The Players Club & Trois) is stuck with a dead end job and forced to take in a roommate, Pancake (Naki Brown), just so she can pay the bills. Luckily, Mia's good friend Marvin (Machion Garrison) has a possible job offer for her. A colleague of his, Derrick (Bill Nunn: Kiss The Girls & He Got Game) is looking to hire someone for "Backstage Entertainment". Mia lands the job and her career takes off… that is until she finds herself falling in love with "One of the industry's top paid rappers," Gipp (Big Gipp of the Goodie Mobb). Mia's relationship with Gipp takes a turn for the worse when Pancake decides to disclose Mia's secrets to Gipp's homeboy, Mellow (Johnell Ghainey). Mellow in turn tries to convince Gipp that Mia truly is "A Damn Groupie!" Groupies is a comedy /drama that will take you through the highs, lows, the loves and losses of three beautiful women trying to make it in the entertainment industry.

A 5 STAR LOW BUDGET FILM............2007-02-14

As far as low budgets films go, this one gets my approval. I've actually watched this one more than once, with different people and we make reference to scenes in the movie all the time....Ain't no mo, Ain't even no mo.................I'm going to bed, my head hurt! Where she get dat gun?

LOL, ROTF......I get it and that's all that matters!!

Pancake alone will keep you laughin'.

I recommend this to the easy going, black film supporters out there.

Rent It......Maybe........2004-04-16

I watched this because it has Big Gipp from the Goodie Mobb in it. That is the high point, the movie is not very good. If your a Goodie Mobb fan rent it just out of curiosity. If not stay away from this one.

Almost famous.......2006-10-03

This cinema verite documentary from 1970 attempts to capture the zietgiest of late-60's rock'n'roll groupiedom, with mixed results. Filmed during the transition when idealistic Peace Love and Dope hippiedom was morphing into the more seedy and decadent excesses that would define the 70's music scene, you may feel like taking a shower after a viewing. Not as involving or professionaly crafted as the Maysles brothers or D.A. Pennebaker offerings from the era ("Gimme Shelter", "Monterey Pop"), the film suffers from sloppy editing and inferior audio mastering (it is difficult to understand what the stoned-out-of-thier-mind groupies are prattling on about most of the time, not that the majority of them have anything very enlightening to say!). It's too bad the filmmakers didn't spend more time with the two most "famous" groupies of the era, Pamela Des Barres (aka "Miss Pamela") and Cynthia "Plaster Caster" (At least they display some personality and the ability to communicate an amusing anecdote or two) Most of the film time is devoted to an assortment of needy, parasitic wannabes listlessly killing time backstage, clamoring to be acknowleged. The film holds more interest as a musical document, with largely intact performances from the little seen (and underappreciated) Terry Reid, as well as Ten Years After and Joe Cocker And The Grease Band. The great Spooky Tooth is seen in snippets-featuring a very young and somewhat dopey Luther Grosvenor, who I am sure winces now when he watches it (especially during a less-than-flattering discussion of his, er, "shortcomings" by a couple of giggling groupies comparing notes). The 2006 DVD release has no extras or commentary, and it appears no effort was made to restore picture or sound. Worthwhile to hardcore 70's rock fans for historical value, if nothing else.

Customer Reviews:

Alvin Lee is great, but these groupies are BORING.......2002-11-20

I must say, I didn't have a clue who Alvin Lee was or 10 Years After. Now I know! What a great guitarist!!! I certainly felt like ripping his clothes off as he ripped that guitar up, so I understand how those groupies felt. Unfortunately, most of them come across as boring, un-attractive, brainless air-heads! If you are looking for "Penny Lane", you won't find her here! I enjoyed the segments with Cynthia Plaster-Caster and Pamela Des Barres, the most famous groupies and no need to identify them, I know them by sight! I didn't have a clue who the other girls were. It would have been nice if their names were pictured somewhere during their interviews, so I could put a name to a face! More could have been done to spruce up the dvd! It will become obvious how a pretty girl (though no raving beauty) like Pamela Des Barres became "the most famous" groupie....most groupies (judging by this dvd) were hideously ugly! Other famous (and BEAUTIFUL) groupies, like Catherine James and Christine Boris, are not on this, just so the buyer knows...

Great soundtrack.......2001-11-26

Besides giving us a look into a 60's phenomana, the groupies, we get to hear some of the most blistering songs ever played by Ten Years After back intheir prime. The band is still great today, but the playing due in part I believe to ingested chemicals, is what made this group the best of all time. Alvin's fantastic guitar work, Leo's sympathetic bass lines, Chick's moody but not down keyboard work, and last but not least Ric Lee's penominal drumming show whay this was the band no-one wanted to follow on stage.Listen and savour.
