The Movie

Synopsis

Untamed Youth is a camp classic so stupefyingly awful that it's actually festive. The villains are cotton grower Tropp (Russell) and corrupt female judge Mrs. Steele (Lurene Tuttle), who conspire between them to ship female convicts to work on Tropp's farm for starvation wages. Two of the new arrivals are professional entertainers, Penny (Van Doren) and Janey (Nelson), arrested on trumped-up charges and forced to work off their sentence on the Tropp spread. Salvation arrives in the form of Bob (Don Burnett), Mrs. Steele's son, who intends to expose his mom's eeeevil scheme. [1]

Information

Featured in the cast is rock-and-roller Eddie Cochran, who gets to sing one song — while Mamie Van Doren is permitted four numbers. [2]
