BUCKY’S ‘70S TRIPLE XXX MOVIE HOUSE TRAILERS VOL. 8 (1997) ***


This eighth iteration of Something Weird’s collection of adult film trailers is nearly two hours of unshaved, grimy, sleazy goodness.  Many of the trailers are for movies I had never heard of, which makes them ripe for discovery.  Fear not, for there are a few titles here that are household names (at least in my household) so you don’t have to necessarily be a porn scholar to enjoy it.  

Here’s a rundown of all the trailers you’ll find on the collection.  Because of the sheer length, there are bound to be a few clunkers in the bunch.  However, I’ll be sure to give special time to the ones that are particularly memorable (or were just downright weird).

The compilation kicks off with a wild trailer for Suzie’s Take Out Service.  Not only does it feature a lot of interracial action, it amusingly borrows (okay, flat-out steals) the guitar solo from The Rolling Stones’ “Can’t Ya Hear Me Knocking?” and uses it as background music.  This is followed by a trailer for Passion Parlour [sic] and the awesome looking Sweet Sexteen, which makes the odd claim, “Why not even shit digging is overlooked!”)  This is followed by trailers for The Sensualists, The Young Starlets, Virgin Snow (“You can get sucked off on a ski lift just as easily as at the drive-in!”), The Candy Store (which bizarrely assures us, “This isn’t an ethnic picture!”), Weekend Roulette (featuring a game of strip Twister), The Swing Thing, The Naked Nympho, The Female Vacume [sic] Cleaner, Neighborhood Doctor, Sexual Freedom in the Ozarks (a clever play on Sexual Freedom in Denmark), Teenage Cowgirls, Little Sister (advertised as a “sound synch version”), Swing High, and The Most Valuable Pussy.  

The trailer for Reflections has some fast-cutting editing that makes it look like a horror movie along with some choice sound bites like, “Since when is it bad to have sex with members of your family?”  Sex in the Comics features the male performers in weird cartoonish make-up on to recreate the comic strips from “Tijuana Bibles”, but the result is just downright bizarre.  Voices of Desire’s trailer has a cool kind of Hitchcock vibe to it and might be worth checking out because it stars Sandra Peabody from Last House on the Left.  

Trailers for The Producer’s Wife and Teacher’s Pets follow before one of the crown jewels in the collection unspools.  Lialeh is a black-themed story about a pimp trying to arrange an erotic musical that contains an outrageous moment when he forces a hot dog (still in the bun) up inside a woman.  This is definitely one I’ve got to track down.  This is followed by Revenge and Punishment (an S & M tale narrated by a sexy black dominatrix), Cheryl’s Surrender, and a grungy looking roughie called Revenge of the Motorcycle Mama.  I think the next one was for something called Come Kissing, but it’s hard to tell because there was no title shot in the trailer.  (It does feature some hot food play with honey and whipped cream though.)  

A trailer for Sweet White Dream precedes a long, in-depth preview for the classic Behind the Green Door, starring Marilyn Chambers.  I liked how they tried to compare it to an art movie and the narrator says “The actors give strength and characterization to their roles” as if that’s something the raincoat crowd cared about.  Rounding out the compilation are trailers for Kathy’s Graduation Present (which features some good group sex scenes), Resurrection of Eve (another Marilyn Chambers epic), Ray Dennis (The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies) Steckler’s Teenage Hustler (“How far down can one girl go?  YOU’LL FIND OUT when you see Teenage Hustler!”), and Hallucinations (“11 wet shots in one big movie!”).  

After the trailers are over, there were a couple of cool Something Weird promos I’d never seen before.  One was set to the tune of “The Right Kind of Loving” from Michael Findlay’s Flesh trilogy and the other showcased a lot of their vintage striptease reels.  Both were a welcome change from the usual (but totally awesome) ad that usually opens their movies.
