KID SISTER is a fairly unremarkable early hardcore film from the days when color and sound were big selling points. There's nothing particularly eccentric or unusual in terms of story or execution that makes it stand out. Its chief point of interest today is the appearance of the beautiful and charismatic Fran Spector as the star.

KID SISTER is a fairly unremarkable early hardcore film from the days when color and sound were big selling points. There's nothing particularly eccentric or unusual in terms of story or execution that makes it stand out. Its chief point of interest today is the appearance of the beautiful and charismatic Fran Spector as the star. She raises the bar and makes what might have otherwise been boring into something entertaining.

Fran is, however, not the title character when this is called KID SISTER (FRAN'S FRENZY is obviously another story). That's Kim Dupont as a neighbor who befriends Fran. XXX film pioneers Fifi Watson and Judy Angel also co-star, and the Fran/Fifi scene is particularly good. Most of the men are unknown except for Orrin North, and that's no great loss. However, the boss guy has the tiniest desk in the history of bosses.

Worth a watch if you're fascinated by the dawning of theatrical hardcore or any of the lovely ladies in the cast.
