Hollywood Cabaret The Movie

Two Aliens — drop-dead gorgeous ZAB (Jessica Hahn) and her knock-out sister, DOB (Julie Strain) have left their drab alien home to visit the mysterious planet, Earth. As luck would have it, they land in Hollywood, and mistakenly end up in an audition for THE HIGH HEELS REVUE, a racy cabaret show. They get the parts, but they also get the unscrupulous Carlton, (Morton Downey Jr.), who manages the Cabaret. Entwined in the plot are some very slick song-and-dance routines, plus a lot of down-to-earth, human drama. Quite a trip for our Aliens, who return home with a new outlook on life.

Directed by Nick Kimaz, Hollywood Cabaret The Movie leans on a strong ensemble — Morton Downey, Jr., Jessica Hahn, Julie Strain — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about science fiction titles of 1992.
