Blaze Starr, playing herself, is tired of performing the duties of a star. At a movie theater, she watches an advertisement for the Sunny Palms Lodge, only 30 miles from where she lives. She joins the place and finally can relax and enjoy nature as a newborn nudist. She drives her agent - who is also her fiancé - to distraction by ignoring scheduled "press functions" and spending her weekends at the nudist camp.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Michael_Elliott Blaze Starr Goes Nudist (1962) * 1/2 (out of 4) Doris Wishman made a string of nudist pictures to start her career but on this one she managed to bring in a controversial name. Blaze Starr was a burlesque star who gained headlines after having an affair with Louisiana Governor Earl Kemp Long. Their affair would eventually be turned into a movie with Paul Newman.This film here has a pretty simple story as Blaze wants to get away from various issues so she skips in to see a movie, which shows a nearby nudist camp. Blaze decides to become a member herself and for a while she keeps it from her fiancé/agent but soon he wants to know what she's doing all the time.BLAZE STARR GOES NUDIST is a pretty boring picture for a number of reasons but, to be fair, most of these nudist pictures were quite boring. These types of movies were made so that male members could see wall-to-wall nudity and if that's the only thing you're after then there's a lot of it on display here. Thankfully most of the people photographed are good looking so looking them over for 75-minutes isn't a problem.Of course, the main attraction here is Starr who does eventually take her own clothes off. This was obviously the selling point of the picture so fans certainly won't be disappointed. I would also add that she's really not that bad of a performer. Her performance here certainly isn't Oscar worthy but it's a lot better than you typically see in this type of picture.With that said, I'd recommend just jumping around to her nude scenes if that's what you're interested in because the rest of the movie is downright lame and boring.
Flak_Magnet Blaze Starr went nudist, all right, and it was a look that really suited this fit, 38-24-37 Burlesque topliner. Starr is a bountiful physical spectacle in this movie, and less the bizarro caricature (and stunningly inept actress) as otherwise similar Wishman compatriot Chesty Morgan (e.g. "Deadly Weapons," "Double Agent 73"). (Unlike Chesty, Starr was sizzling hot, and her ineptness as an actress is balanced by an endearing, even if hopeless, effort to be presentable). If you like campy acting, ridiculous dialog, and shamelessly naked people, this odd and somewhat charming sexploitation film is worth checking out. As a whole, this is probably Wishman's most polished movie, and the overall experience feels more the work of David Friedman ("Blood Feast," "She Freak," etc.), himself a friend of Wishman, than a typical Wishman film. Scenes flow naturally from one to the next, and the camera-work is heads-and-shoulder's above typical Wishman fare. (We're not talking high art, mind you, but at least scenes are framed and in focus). Similarly, Wishman's patent feet shots and bold-faced filler are largely absent. As expected, the story and acting are deplorable, but the film's innocent spirit and camp factor make for quaint sexploitation vintage. If you are curious about Doris Wishman, the "Female Ed Wood," as she is often heralded, "Blaze Starr Goes Nudist" is a solid choice. ---|--- Reviews by Flak Magnet
andyforwang from the pictures of the film, I think it's a good film. not because it is a good look ,but it's a nudist film.Also, if you look very closely, almost the entire dialog in the film is dubbed and very badly too. In fact, the same company that did much of the dubbing for films in the Godzilla series.Still, the movie is a lot of fun to watch; even though there seems to be so much tedium and is slow moving. The scenery is beautiful and you feel you are seeing what Heaven would look like in 1961. There are some fine looking women who always seem to be carrying around hats, towels, and magazines over the more "controversial" private parts. Also, Davee Decker is quite lovely; even though her voice is dubbed. http://www.nudistonly.com
CharlieHearse I never fully realized the pressures of being an actress. The story obviously hit so close to home that Blaze Starr just plays herself. Anyone who feels exhausted and disenchanted with their job or life in general will relate to Blaze's circumstances. The attention paid to the details is astounding. Never has a film stretched the musical montage sequence and make it work so well with the theme. This movie is nearly perfect. The only flaw was that it was too short.
