Burnt Offerings: Viv Thomas’ “Members Only 6”

While we are not the, er, house organ for Viv Thomas, we can explain covering two sequential titles in his "Members Only" series by saying that this one, confusingly, doesn't have cocks in it. Why, then, call it "Members Only"? Is this one of those Euro things like how cigarette holder-holding vamps refer to their parts as their "sex"? Don't they know what "member" means? Karen Black would know.

Yes, we are writing about "Members Only 6" because the performer Eleanor looks surprisingly like a blonde Karen Black and, apropos of Ms. Black's performance in "Capricorn One," we are equating the faked moon landing therein with the cocklessness of a movie boasting only members. There.

The above insert of Black, by the way, is from the 1982 film "Miss Right."
