The Playbirds
Mary Millington joins the Blue Squad and blows her cover!
Directed by Willy Roe
Produced by Roldvale Ltd
A 1970s sexploitation thriller that uses a serial killer premise as scaffolding for erotic content, balancing murder mystery tension with playful, exploitative sensuality.
In order to unmask a pathological killer who is targeting the beautiful centrefolds of Playbirds magazine, a sexy policewoman Lucy Sheridan puts her life and reputation on the line by sleeping with millionaire publisher Harry Dougan. The Chief Superintendant and Police Commissioner are keeping a close eye on her, but time is running out fast.
