Call it coincidence, but ever since director Jason Holt started directing its features, Cinema Products Video has made great strides in the alternative adult market. And although their boxcover artist can't spell worth a shit, the company's latest T & A offering begs to be seen.

In style it bears very favorable comparison to the Playboy releases and the independent Girls of Tuxxedo Network swimsuit tape of a couple of years ago. Very stylish, loaded with gorgeous women, editing out the ass and all that good stuff....

Lots of women (including one with an eye patch--no, not the girl from Twin Peaks) take off their clothes against eye-catching backdrops. Only problem is the camera doesn't sit still long enough to allow the viewer to take any of it in and savor the nudity--but blame (or praise--depending on y our tastes) Playboy for that trend.

The one positive aspect is that we've at least gotten away from those awful cookie cutter look-alike striptease competition tapes that once flooded the R market.
