Stand Up Virgin Soldiers (1977)
Director: Norman Cohen
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Though the original Virgin Soldiers was no masterpiece, it certainly never deserved the retrospective slur of association with this appalling sequel, upping the nudge-nudge quotient with Leslie Thomas' apparent complicity, and all too easily characterised as Confessions of a National Serviceman. One for old Singapore sweats and lovers of jokes about parading privates.Author: PT
