Has anyone else on this board ever seen this movie? If yes, what did you think of it? I personally think that it is one of the most underrated movies of the 80s.

I agree, very underrated. Much like Fast Times at Ridgemont High, there's some real heartfelt drama hidden behind the guise of an 80s teen sex comedy.

It reminded me of Fast Times as well, but with the darkest teen sex comedy ending ever. However, I found the comedy mostly cringeworthy. The literal d**k measuring contest, what was that?!

It’s terrible. One of its many taglines was “See it or be it.” I took that to mean that if you don’t see it, you are that eponymous virgin. But if you DO see it, you’ve been f*&^$#.

I have seen it. Director Boaz Davidson reworked his own film 'Lemon Popsicle' (1978) for the American market and came up with 'The Last American Virgin'. I saw it based upon a recommendation from filmmaker Eli Roth. Davidson's Israeli films 'Lemon Popsicle', 'Greasy Kid Stuff' (1979), 'Hot Bubblegum' (1981) and 'Private Popsicle' (1982) were big hits in Europe. Davidson handed over the reigns of his own informal series to try and crack America, with Dan Wolman directing 'Baby Love' (1983) and 'Up Your Anchor' (1985).
The 'Lemon Popsicle' films helped turn comedian Zachi Noy into a star. Noy became especially popular in Germany where he was selected by Austrian filmmaker Franz Josef Gottlieb to headline 'Popcorn And Ice Cream' (1978).
