Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is a 1970 film starring Dolly Read, Cynthia Myers, Marcia McBroom, John LaZar, and Michael Blodgett. It was directed by Russ Meyer, and co-written by Meyer and Roger Ebert . Despite its title, it is not a sequel to the novel or film versions of Valley of the Dolls, but a satirical pastiche inspired by the original.

It is one of two films produced by independent filmmaker Meyer for 20th Century Fox (the other being The Seven Minutes), and one of three films that film critic Ebert wrote with Meyer. Ebert has written that Beyond "seems more and more like a movie that got made by accident when the lunatics took over the asylum."
