Private Parts is a 1972 black comedy/horror film directed by Paul Bartel as his feature film debut. When the film was released on video, some store customers objected to the original cover featuring Stern with no clothes on. An alternate version of the cover was produced featuring Stern fully clothed.

It was Bartel's debut feature, produced for Gene Corman, after which he joined forces with the latter's brother Roger Corman during the heyday of B-movie house New World Pictures, where he would direct Death Race 2000 and Cannonball, both starring David Carradine.
