That's it. Now look

just to the right of that light there.

Now, put your right

shoulder back a little bit.

Straighten up now.

Come on. Come on, Kim, smile.

That's it. OK, hold it.

OK, Kim. Now that was fine.

Now turn to your right.

That's the girl.

OK, now for this shot,

tell you what you do.

Put your, uh...

put your hair back in your back then.

Where it was before. That's the girl.

OK, now put your arms upstretched.

Arms upstretched. Come on, way upstretched.

Come on, Kim.

Pull your tummy in,

put your arms out further stretched.

Like you're diving. Come on, come on.

Now smile. Hold it. There, that's good.

Uh, I'll tell you what, Kim,

uh, let's do that again, huh?

Uh, put your hair over your shoulder.

Your left shoulder there.

And then, you know, back the way you were,

arms outstretched.

Who's that walking?

Uh, it's just

me, uh, walking around.

OK, now arms outstretched. That's it.

- OK.

- Hey, look this way.

Thanks a lot!

Now that'll look

good in my scrapbook.

Hey, Kim.

When you're through with your hysterics,

get dressed and get out here.

We've got business to discuss.

That'll be one bet that'll

be a pleasure to lose.

You know something?

There's only one other person in this world

more disgusting than you.

Who? Ajax?

Mmm-mmm. Me.

Kim! Kim, what's the matter?

Oh, that awful boy, that Larry.

He told me I'd have to pose.

Pose without any clothes

or he'd show the pictures to my father.

Oh, that little snake.

Sandra, what'll I do? What'll I do?

Well, first of all, honey, don't get

hysterical. It's not gonna help you.

I'm better now.

Sandra, what can I do?

I can't let them show those pictures.

What do they want them for?

Why would Harmon do that?

I thought he liked me.

You want my advice? Well, here it is.

You're not going to like it, honey,

but hear me out, please?

If you don't go along with these morons,

they're gonna place your bosom

all over this town.

Honey, my suggestion is this.

Pose for them.

But... but I can't.

Why would they do such a thing?

Do you want them to show those pictures

all over town?

Kim, you gotta do it.

They probably won't even use film.

All they want to do is take a good look.

That won't help, Kim.

You have to make up your mind.

Snap out of it, honey.

Haven't you ever

been looked at by a man before?

You mean without... Of course not.

I don't know what to do.

You really think if I...

It's the only way. I

know these kids, honey.

They send snapshots to your father

just to be mean.

All you do is turn your head away

when they snap the picture. That's all.

I guess you're right.

It's my own fault for posing for Harmon

in the first place.

Herschell Gordon Lewis

Herschell Gordon Lewis (June 15, 1926 – September 26, 2016) was an American filmmaker, best known for creating the "splatter" subgenre of horror films. He is often called the "Godfather of Gore" (a title also given to Lucio Fulci), though his film career included works in a range of exploitation film genres including juvenile delinquent films, nudie-cuties, two children's films and at least one rural comedy. On Lewis' career, AllMovie wrote: "With his better-known gore films, Herschell Gordon Lewis was a pioneer, going farther than anyone else dared, probing the depths of disgust and discomfort onscreen with more bad taste and imagination than anyone of his era." more…
