Editorial Review:
Guitar-playing rodeo rider, working at a dude ranch for women, attracts all of them except the instructor, until he aids her in finding buried gold in a ghost town.
Description of Tickle Me:
Talk about cultural curios. That's exactly how Tickle Me was regarded when it was released in 1965, the same year as the Beatles' Help! There was a musical revolution going on, but you wouldn't have known it from this would-be comedy, in which the King plays a rodeo champion forced to take a job on a combination dude ranch/fat farm. Naturally, all of the women tumble at his feet; even when he's pitching hay, he's liable to burst into hip-swiveling song. What little plot there is deals with his romance with the ranch's exercise instructor (Jocelyn Lane), who happens to hold the key to a fortune in gold hidden in a nearby ghost town. Nary a recognizable Elvis hit is to be heard in the score, and as for his acting, well, Elvis looks as though he happened to be wandering past the set and was pressed into service at the last minute. --Marshall Fine

Elvis fights masked cowboys in a western ghost town 
2009-03-01 - In this movie Elvis fights masked cowboys in a western ghost town. I liked the mud wrestling scene of the cowboy in the black hat
One of my favorite movies
2008-04-01 - This is a great movie. Yes it is a silly 60 Elvis movie. But this one is better than most. It has some very funny scenes.
ELVIS AND THE HOT GIRL MOVIE (Jocelyn Lane)
2008-03-29 - This has to be one of my favorite Elvis movies. Elvis, well he is Elvis in the movie, ha, but he and Pam, Jocelyn Lane, make this movie a great romance! ala 60's! Boy chases girl, girl rejects boy, girl/boy fall in love at the end/after finding a treasure! and get married!
"Strictly Business" ~ Where Oh Where Has My Jocelyn Gone?
2008-02-23 - Synopsis: Lonnie Beal (Elvis), a temporarily out of work rodeo rider gets a job at what he thinks is your everyday conventional cattle ranch. On arrival he is pleasantly surprised to discover that it's a fat farm/retreat for a bevy of beautiful women. As I'm sure you guessed, he immediately becomes the most sought after commodity within a hundred mile radius.
Critique: The '65 release `Tickle Me' is your typical Elvis movie famous for there predictable storyline, atrocious acting, inane dialogue, schlock humor and extremely attractive women. See Elvis win the heart of many a fair maiden with his classic good looks, charming personality, manly fighting skills and incredible singing voice. However what sets this particular film apart from the rest of the herd of Elvis cinematic exploits is the presence of one of the most stunning beauties of the `60's, or any decade for that matter, the alluring, rarely seen Jocelyn Lane. For me this isn't an Elvis film, it's a Jocelyn Lane film and the - 4 Stars - are all for her.
