About the same time Black action heroes were fighting the Man in the cities, deep in the country or in the swamps, hillbillies were fighting off corrupt sheriffs or running moonshine. I suppose you could say that the genre reached its peak with Walking Tall, and maybe Smokey and the Bandit. On the other end of the spectrum, you find quickies like Gator Bait. Gator Bait stars Claudia Jennings as Desiree, the title character. Jennings was Playboy’s 1970 Playmate of the Year, and generally played action roles in various exploitation-type movies, making her one of the few bona-fide female action stars of the period, along with her sisters over in the blaxploitation films. At least in Gator Bait, Jennings seems to be one of the better Playmate/model turned actresses. Of course, she only speaks about 10 lines.
