One day while walking down the street, I came across a homeless Chinese man masturbating to the cover art of Chatterbox (1977). I suddenly became curious and immediately rented this abomination. Now I have a new goal in life. Find that oriental, and shove this movie in his anus.Chatterbox (1977) can best be described as a vagina burping out feces. It is a simple movie of a talking vagina. After about 5 seconds of hearing it you laugh. Then the rest of the movie is an uninspired bore fest. Their is no humor afterward. Its no different than watching an Indian taking a dump, but for 90 minutes. Just a waste of time and will only result in taking out your brain and replacing it with stupid.While watching this diarrhea, one begins to come up with many questions. What does the talking vagina look like? How does it talk? Does the talking vagina have eyes? Does the talking vagina need to eat, or urinate? Does the talking vagina have reproductive parts of its own? If it does, does that make the talking vagina have a gender? What if their was a male talking vagina and a female talking vagina. Could they mate and create a strange mutated vagina? If the talking vagina dies, does the host also die? Does the talking vagina have a soul? If you were having sex with the woman with the talking vagina, could the vagina eat the penis?From watching Chatterbox (1977) my IQ lowered a bit and I ask stupid questions. Big picture, pass this junk up. Their is no entertainment to be had here. You know the vagina talks, that is it. Laugh it up at that ridiculous idea and move along. Go watch Zombie '90: Extreme Pestilence (1991) or something.

Chatterbox may be the strangest comedy I have ever seen. It reminded me of Eating Raoul, the Paul Bartel/Mary Woronov flick of the same era. Penelope(Candice Rialson) works in a beauty parlor as a hairdresser. One night, as she and her boyfriend are getting it on, her vagina speaks to her lover, with insults. He thinks that Penelope is making fun of him and leaves. Her lower half also loves to sing. She visits a psychiatrist to demonstrate her dilemma, and he comes up with the idea to enter show business. Dr. Pearl takes her on the road and she and her partner become stars by singing show tunes. Chatterbox is not graphic, but sort of soft porn with typically bad acting and a very cheap look to the camera work and sets. At seventy two minutes, it never becomes boring; so if you are in the mood for a light farce, and extensive nudity on the part of Ms. Rialson will not offend you, Chatterbox is a short diversion from the troubles of the world.

Chatterbox is a great movie. Candice Rialson's performance is spot on. The musical intermezzo's a hilarious, especially the one where Candice performs before a live audience for the first time. And the happy end (with a twist) is just great. The overall tone is tongue in cheek. It's obviously they weren't trying to make Citizen Cane here.For those people who say this is a bad movie, I'm just wondering. Did they really expect an insightful drama about a woman with a singing vagina? It is what it is: a wonderful piece of cult-trash cinema. And I loved every minute of it...

This was an awful movie. But that's what I expected when I rented it. For me the highlight of the movie was in one scene where the boom mic actually swings down into frame. It's been so long since I've seen it, I can't even remember what the major conflict of the movie was, I do however remember the climactic ending featuring not only our protagonist's vagina singing, but it was also joined in a duet with the major love interest's penis. Again, unless you are doing what i did when i rented it (which was looking for a bad movie to make fun of) then don't waste your time. Don't rent or buy this movie.
