Director: Mike Cartel (as Michael Cartel), starring: Mike Cartel, Al Valletta, Seeska Vandenberg...
An action comedy horror movie written, directed & starring Mike Cartel. Low-budget, bad acting, weak plot, and never really delivers on the promise of this description I found on imdb: "Two dorky Nevada worm wranglers are kidnapped by a gang of beautiful women as part of a plot to steal plutonium from the Mafia."
There is a bar scene with pinball machines, a jukebox, a mirror ball, and the two main characters get into a fight amongst them.
Oblivious to the fighting, there's a girl playing Suspense (Williams, 1969) the whole time...
Just before this mean-looking guy punches out the main character, we can see the reflection of two machines in the mirror behind the bar, and these may be the Night Rider and Power Play seen a bit later...
The punch throws him into a 1976 Seeburg Sunstar jukebox, which starts playing (slightly earlier, we see a girl drop a coin and make a selection, but it fails to turn on)...
Another punch is thrown in front of a Night Rider (Bally, 1976) EM version, and a Power Play (Bally, 1978)... these are quite possibly the machines seen reflected in the behind-the-bar mirror in the still above...
The other main character is seen near a Drop-A-Card (Gottlieb, 1971)...
The scene ends with TILT flashing on a Roller Coaster (Gottlieb, 1971)...
Bonus fact: Williams Suspense can be seen in the Twin Peaks original series (season 2, episode 9) at the entrance of the Roadhouse along with a Williams Shangri-La.
