Fyre (1979)
This is the bizarre tale of a small-town virgin (Linda Theel)who gets gang-raped while on a date AND loses her entire family in a tragic car accident soon after. "Eight years later" according to the titles (why it has to be eight years later, I don't know), she's become a prostitute in big, bad LA, where she's menaced by both brutal pimps and greedy madams, and gets hooked up with a hot-headed, violence-prone boyfriend (Tom Baker).
This one certainly has an interesting cast. Popular 70,s character actor Alan Garfield plays an amoral street criminal called "the Preacher" because he often cons people with a false preacher routine. Tom Baker (not to be confused with the more famous British thesp.) was a one-time Warhol actor and drinking buddy of Jim Morrison (Michael Madsen's character in "The Doors" was loosely based on him). Perhaps the strangest appearance though is by Donna Wilkes in a long topless dancing and coke-fueled lesbian scene/cameo. (IMDB lazarillo)
