San Francisco based filmmaker, Duck Dumont, was a late comer to the world of theatrical sex films, but these two early efforts showcase his distinct approach to erotic cinema.

PLEASURE MAZE: In the not too distant future, human prostitutes have been replaced by robots known as Nightdroids. Before these animatronic lovers can be released to the public, they must each be fully tested in a highly efficient laboratory called The Pleasure Maze.

LOVERS LANE: A group of female friends reminisce about the many wild sexual adventures they enjoyed when they were younger in a special spot atop the city known as 'Lovers Lane.'

EXTREMELY disappointed that the alternate (and much, much better) version of NURSE SHERRI is only going to be on DVD. Going to have to pass on this.

Oh man, I wonder which Damiano it will be?

I have my fingers and toes crossed for Damiano's 'Fantasy'. I have been in love with that film for a long long time.

It was disappointing for us as well...

Sam seems to have lost the only print ever made of that version. All he had was the digibeta. He literally looked for the print for months and came up empty.

I'm hoping the Damiano film will be Deep Throat with original soundtrack :)

That was released in Sweden (earlier this year)

Thought that new Blu (German, I believe) was cut?

Looks like some good films in June, I am looking forward to the Kemal Horulu movie. I like all his films I've seen. He was a very good director who you rarely hear people talk about when people talk about the great directors of classic porn. I think A Touch of Genie will be good too, glad to see it's on blu ray, although your DVD's are always such good quality that I rarely am disappointed in them being only on DVD.

The latest newsletter hints that both the Memorial Day Sale surprise Blus have 'survival in the wild' as a common theme, and reveals that there's going to be a surprise 3-DVD set as well!

3 DVD set? I hope it's another of those 12 hours of porn boxsets :)

Ideally it would be a gay Storefront Theatre Collection but I'm not going to hold my breath. To quote the newsletter:

It might not be what you think, but it's something we've been asked to do a bunch of times.

That quote sounds like a Henny Youngman setup.

I'd like a gay storefront theater collection as well, there are a lot of 70's gay porn films that would be great to have in a collection like that, sex in the 70's was so creepy, it's great to see people back then having greasy creepy sex haha.

What makes the alternate version so much better?
