A faux cautionary documentary based on Kenneth Anger's book Hollywood Babylon that portrays several notorious celebrity sex scandals from the golden age of Hollywood through film clips and often humorous softcore reenactments. Like the book, the movie covers both real and rumored scandals. The movie consists of sexploitational vignettes narrated by the semi-serious narrator. Some of the real life people portrayed in the movie are not named directly but its heavily implied who they're suppose to be. The movie focuses on Olive Thomas, Wallace "Wally" Reid, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, Marion Davies and the Thomas H. Ince incident, Charlie Chaplin and Lita Grey, Rudolph Valentino, Marlene Dietrich's bisexuality, Erich von Stroheim, and Clara Bow.

Hollywood, the home of the stars, is also the city of scandal. Now it can be told. The stories of wild parties- orgies- sexual fantasies- homosexual hangups and all those Hollywood happenings. But wait, this is not 1972, this is 1916 and if you think Tinsel Town is weird now, step back sixty years and take another look. And look you will at Hollywood as seen in the shadow of Babylon, Hollywood Babylon. Scandal was everywhere. The only rules were: spend money and have fun, no matter what the costs. The names of those wild "Silent Screen" stars reads like a Hollywood's Who's Who. Names like Chaplin, Von Stroheim, Fatty Arbuckle and more. You've seen adult films about people of today, now witness the wild times of the very rich and famous as they lived and loved and sinned sixty years ago when Hollywood was in full bloom.
