"The People You Are About To Meet May Shock You!" Albert Rose is "an aggressive, athletic, normal American male" -- until he straps on his first brassiere! Blackmailed by kinky dominatrix Dominita, Albert is held at her Florida hideaway and forced to join other gender-benders after he enters "The Transformation Room" and becomes a She-Man named Rose. And, folks, Albert in drag ain't pretty. But, hey, the big lug likes it! He also falls for Dominita's lesbian secretary, who prefers him as a her! The lovebirds eventually lead a she-male mutiny against Dominita by dramatically exposing her shocking non-secret. Hilariously screwy, this "factual exposition" marked the directorial debut of Bob Clark who went on to make Black Christmas and Porky's! Plus: Someone's bashed in the head of faded nightclub singer and "no-good broad" Rachel Waring. As police investigate and the Sins of Rachel are exposed, a whole range of small-town suspects emerge, most notably her sexually-confused son Jimmy. Not only does Jimmy think he's gay, but he grew up sleeping in Rachel's bedroom until the night she groped him which made the kid flip out and run straight into the arms of a sensitive semi-bikeboy. This seedy little bargain-basement obscurity was not only written by its leading lady, but presented in the Motion-Picture Miracle of "TextureTone!"

The real gem here is "The Sins Of Rachel"!
I couldn't get through the first movie, but wow! The Sins Of Rachel is a great movie! Sure it's low budget, but it touches on themes that even in this day and age are rather taboo. Also, the guy who plays the shirtless bike boy is hot, hot, hot! Really, it's a good plot, a sorted little who-done-it you will enjoy. So skip the first film and go directly to the great little movie, "The Sins Of Rachel"!

"I would rather not say!"
I spoke to the late director Bob Clarke about SHE MAN just before he died in that fatal car wreck with his son. He hemmed and hawed and then said, "I would rather not say!" The film is nothing to be ashamed about it. It's a highly engaging no-budget regional rarity that tackles daring themes such as transvestism, gender identity ands role-playing, not once crossing into tastelessness. THE SINS OF RACHEL is a hoot - a terrible soap opera that tries to be sophisticated and falls just flat. Nifty anti-clerical ending, however.

INDESCRIBLY AWFUL FILMS
These two films are almost two awful to imagine. On the cover they show a beautiful woman suggesting she is the transvestite. The plain-faced dumpy guy in the film never looks remotely like a woman, neither does Rachel in the 2nd film. Gross, stupid, and tiresome!
