The film was directed by Russ Meyer and screenwritten by Roger Ebert from a story by Ebert and Meyer. Originally intended as a sequel to the 1967 film '' Valley of the Dolls''—"dolls" being a slang term for depressant pills or "downers"—''Beyond the Valley of the Dolls'' was instead revised as a parody of the commercially successful but critically reviled original.

The film later developed a cult following in subsequent decades, and earned some critical reappraisal for its satirical and metafictional elements. Plot Three young women—Kelly MacNamara, Casey Anderson, and Petronella "Pet" Danforth—perform in a rock band, the Kelly Affair, managed by Harris Allsworth, Kelly's ...
