Plot

Madam Mavis (Annette Haven) runs a bordello in Memphis, Tennessee. Her exclusive client is Sheriff T.J. Thomson (Mike Horner), but he can't help her against Reverend Pritchit (R.J. Reynolds) who sends Deacon Davis (Herschel Savage) and Brother Pyle (Jon Martin) to demonstrate outside. At last, the demonstrators are soon lured inside to be with Angel (K.C. Valentine), Cherry (Dorothy LeMay), and Rose (Parker). Meanwhile, a woman called Tammy Sue (Danielle) knocks on the door saying someone just tried to rape her. Mavis calms her down and eventually offers her a job. She coaches her with the Sheriff. Rose reminisces about a college guy called Tommy Lee, whose brother Johnny Lee was with Dixie (Lisa De Leeuw). Per tradition, the captain of the winning football team Billy Ray then arrives and gets to be Tammy Sue's first sole client. The Sheriff offers to save the whorehouse by proposing to Mavis. Reverend Pritchit arrives personally to stop the ceremony, but his true face is exposed when Tammy Sue reveals he's the man who tried to rape her.[2]

Production and Release

The film was directed by Louie Lewis[3] for Caballero Home Video, the studio also responsible for such pornographic spoofs as 8 to 4, a spoof of the 1980 film 9 to 5 also originally starring Parton.[4] Porn star Kay Parker, who played the prostitute Rose in the movie, had an uncredited bit role in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas film.[1]

Memphis Cathouse Blues was originally released in 1982, the same year as the film it was based on. A heavily cut version of the film, with a runtime of 48m 19s, was passed by the BBFC in the United Kingdom rated 18 on April 13, 1994.[5]

gollark: My device is still warrantied but not having a laptop for ages while it gets repaired would be very inconvenient, so does anyone know how long this sort of thing generally takes to get fixed (or if there is a simple repair I can do, but I doubt it)?
gollark: I heard a "pop" noise earlier today when using my laptop (Legion 5, 2020, RTX 2060, i5-10300H), and it seems that now heavy GPU load causes a weird periodic buzzing noise (attached; sorry for the poor quality but I had to boost the volume lots for it to be audible, and also the recording is mostly fan noise). I figure it's a GPU power supply issue.
gollark: Discrete = always use dedicated GPU, dynamic = sometimes use integrated GPU, probably.
gollark: It's running but ÆÆÆÆÆ IPv6 configuration.
