these are two bona fide genre movies that are also adult movies, both written/directed by Scott McHaley, and these are the only two movies he ever wrote/directed, which makes him more impressive from my perspective
this was my first dip into the Peekarama series and great, now the bar is raised for that entire series
I began with Fast Cars Fast Women because it's at the top of the menu screen, although in fact this one was made after Starship Eros.
okay: what an impressive and authentic portrayal of the reality of a race car driver in the south. what total immersion into a southern lifestyle in general: early on you see the race track and I thought, nice, but by the time we're in a bar with a live county-western band performing I'm becoming impressed. although a potential sibling to this movie would be The Legend of Billie Jean, the bar scene is Nashville-level. it feels like I'm there in the bar, hearing a live band. still an adult movie, however, a slight detail is a line in the song, "Slide on in, darling I'm so what you're looking for," and although in a lyrical context you could justify that the singer is referring to a hug, I mean.
this is a fully formed movie, although yes it's an adult movie. that combination is assuredly accomplished. so there's a rivalry between the owners of race cars, one female and one male, and their rivalry is spiked by the fact that the evil male-owner also runs a company in financial trouble. he wants to win prize movie to pay off his debts. and he's so evil he tampered with a car that crashed and killed its driver. the star of this movie is a woman who arrives to replace that dead team member. she will drive the same car that killed its previous driver. wow. the stakes are high. damn. so what transpires is a deft amalgamation of this narrative and sex scenes
you go from the evil male-owner visiting the holy female-owner, and the female-owner won't put out to him of course (she sleeps with her pit boss), so she masturbates while the evil male-owner watches. and next you witness thugs in cheap winter masks attack the pit boss. followed by a female-with-female shower scene. this is how the movie progresses
the evil male-owner wants to overpower the holy female-owner, but he is way, way underestimating her strength and ability. she confronts him in a pit and tells him, "Stay away from my wheels. Stay away from my girls. If you don’t I’m going to chop your balls off," and we hear the click of her heels as she walks away.
a main goon on the evil side is Ron Jeremy, back when he was young and possessed beauty imo. you see him doing goon stuff and you see a car crash. what, appropriate for this movie, doesn't this movie offer me? it absolutely works car fetishization into the movie at a John Frankenheimer's Grand Prix-level. you see closeups of car stuff before the final race, when everything is on the line
the movie ends with a car race and it's pretty much a perfect movie. the disc offers soft core outtakes taken from sex scenes. somehow: all of this is real. this is reality. the movie trailer is another special future
Starship Eros begins with a note from the producer as a special feature. he says Scott McHaley wrote the script and showed it to him, and the producer was like, yeah for sure. it was financed through stunt men. the producer said he directed the sex scenes because McHaley was so fresh. but you're wrong if you think McHaley didn't make his own significant contributions: he made the special effects in his garage, and I assume he directed the scenes of space chases and space battles
the producer said it was a two-day shoot and I did wonder how they did that. the first shot is a star-filled sky from the perspective of traveling thorough space. the year's title card appears: we're in the future of 1995
how they accomplished the two-day shoot is this movie has the narrative speed of porn, yet also you are in space. the first ten minutes establish who the commander is: we're introduced to her through a hot tub scene, followed by self-pleasure, followed by intercourse.
then we're in space with the special effects: we can see a space station, and a spaceship flying through space. a pilot arrives at a space station and a woman greets her, tells her, "Beverly here, everyone calls me Bev." this ship is women-only. though there is a sex robot named Quasar, played by a man wearing a C=3PO mask. you see his hands and later his penis. he says he's human from the waist down although like I said you also see his human hands. he has on a robot vest though. with the mask and vest he looks robot, count it
when the captain meets the commander you learn about their spaceship lifestyle: "Sorry to interrupt commander, I didn’t know this was pleasure period." the commander had been self-pleasuring. but the commander isn't upset at all and says, "Strip and do me." these crew members are super nice to each other, real friends
while learning about Quasar, the pilot encounters the situation in which Quasar's battery loses power and must be replaced. good detail, space sex movie.
when they're called into mission 28 min into the 67 min movie, it does feel like one shooting day has transpired. it's miraculous how little happens in this movie that also feels like a complete-enough movie. called into a mission, suddenly the sex actors are controlling a spaceship. the mission pertains the daring Amazoids who are up to extreme mischief. Starship Eros is in pursuit
"Think we’ll see any action, commander?"
"It isn’t very likely we won’t."
In order to change into combat gear, the pilot leaves the room, although while changing she sees Quasar, and she becomes distracted, for which she's later punished. now it must be mentioned that sex scenes are intercut with scenes of spaceflight. damn Scott McHaley, you really know how to treat a movie. Fast Cars Fast Women fetishizes cars and this movie fetishizes sci-fi. the pilot's punishment for becoming distracted by Quasar during a mission is the wildest punishment I've ever witnessed in a movie, involving a laser gun and manual stimulation. this punishment makes the pilot sweat
again, very little has happened, but enough to call it a movie, and plenty to call it adult. 55min into the movie the enemy captain is captured. by this point Bev is naked. accomplishments at the end of the movie are Quasar comes on his own (without programming, his first time) and the enemy captain is converted into a team member
