"Musical set in the 'future', e.g. 1994. A young couple enters the world of the music industry, but also the world of drugs."
IMDB comments:
"THE APPLE is so audacious, so over the top, so totally awful that it is simply wonderful. The songs are cheesy, the acting horrendous, the costumes nightmarish, the concept bizarre etc., etc., but when all those negatives are put together, the result is a positively guilty pleasure to top all guilty pleasures."
"THE APPLE is CAN'T STOP THE MUSIC (the music-world milieu) meets ROCKY HORROR (innocent couple corrupted by bizarre characters), and it liberally "borrows" scenes from everything from BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS to HAIR. And, oh my, the costumes. I wouldn't know where to begin describing them, so all I'll say is that camel-toe was apparently stylish for both men and women at one time. Which is all another way of saying that THE APPLE is the newest camp classic that I must add to my collection"
"Everything about this film is so grossly over-the-top and gaudy that you just have to marvel that it was ever produced, much less released. I don't want to give anything away, but it is best described as Faust covered in glitter. The music is bad, the acting is worse and the direction is out the window. It's glorious! The lyrics to the songs, though earnest, are so clichéd that they illicit unintentional giggles with every line. The leading man is supposedly from Moosejaw, Canada but mysteriously sports a German accent. The height of future transportation is apparently a station wagon with extra lights attached. You can tell that Golan/Globus (yes, them) thought they were making a sincere statement about the power of love to conquer evil, as there was seemingly a decent budget on the film. Most of the musical numbers are large, crowded affairs and dancers don't come cheap. In summary, any film that features God coming down from the sky in a Heavenly Cadillac is okay by me!"
