Review Summary:
Carter Stevens, known for his ability to maximize a modest budget, directed "Honeymoon Haven," showcasing both elaborate scenarios and period detail. The film follows various newlyweds in a motel established in 1949, narrated by a loyal receptionist. The soundtrack, curated by George Craig, enhances the episodic narrative with a mix of public domain tracks from the late 1940s to the 1970s. Notable performances include Marlene Willoughby, who provides comedic flair alongside Roger Caine, and Lisa Marks, who encounters a humorous situation with her husband. The film features a variety of sexual encounters, including a beatnik scene with Karol Kaye and Herschel Savage.
The cinematography, executed by Bruce G. Sparks, enhances the film's lighthearted tone with vibrant colors that contrast the motel's furnishings with the wedding attire of the actresses. Overall,"Honeymoon Haven" is characterized by a blend of comedy and sexual exploration, maintaining a playful atmosphere throughout.
