Wanting desperately to put some zest into her non-existent sex life "Jeannie" (Stephanie Fondue) decides to try out for the cheerleader squad at Amarosa High School. Luckily for her, the squad has just lost one of their cheerleaders due to a pregnancy and need someone who isn't sexually active. So Jeannie gets chosen. In the meantime all of the other cheerleaders are busy having sex with just about everybody while Jeannie watches from the proverbial sidelines awaiting her big chance. Anyway, rather than disclose the rest of the story I will just say that although this is the first movie in the "Cheerleaders trilogy" it doesn't have to be viewed first since none of the other films have any relationship to each other except for the fact that they have cheerleaders in them. As far as this particular movie is concerned--while there is a gratuitous sex scene about every five minutes--most of them weren't that good. On that note, the fact that half of the cheerleaders weren't very attractive had something to do with it. However, to be quite fair there were a few pretty ones with Denise Dillaway (as "Claudia"), Jovita Bush ("Bonnie") and the aforementioned Stephanie Fondue included in that category. But the low-budget nature of the film and the lack of humor in most of the scenes certainly didn't help matters either. Worth a look if a person enjoys films in this genre but other than that I rate it as slightly below average.
