**_Madcap spoof of all Roger Corman genres_** A beautiful blonde from Indiana (Candice Rialson) moves to Hollywood to become an actress and find fame. She hooks-up with a dubious team of moviemakers who run Miracle Pictures. Their slogan is: “If it’s a good picture, it’s a miracle.” Statuesque Mary Woronov is on hand as an increasingly bitter actress who works for the company. “Hollywood Boulevard” (1976) is an amusing send-up of Grade Z filmmaking with comedy, action, slasher, you-name-it. It’s amusing for the first 40 minutes or so, but starts to lose its charm by the second half. Sure, it’s entertaining to a point if you want to turn-off your brain for a fun time, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a shallow, throwaway flick. Nevertheless, there’s a surprising sequence that obviously influenced Coppola and his outstanding air raid on the village sequence in “Apocalypse Now.” Blonde Candice Rialson was a memorable B-film starlet in the 70s, along the lines of redhead Claudia Jennings; and, less so, thin Tara Strohmeier, who plays Jill here. Meanwhile brunette Rita George is notable as Bobbi. There’s quite a bit of top nudity, so stay away if you find that objectionable. Eleven years later, "Howling III: The Marsupials" would feature a satirical filmmaking crew, similar to the one in this one. It runs 1 hour, 23 minutes, and was shot in Los Angeles, including Hollywood, except for sequences done at Paramount Ranch in Agoura Hills, which is west of there, just north of Malibu in the high country (the Western town set and open landscape shots). GRADE: C
