PLAYMATE
OF THE APES (Seduction
Cinema) DVD. Erotic parody. Total disc time approx 120 minutes. NR,
nudity, softcore lesbo sex. After crash landing their spaceship on a
seemingly strange planet, three female astronauts quickly exit the ship,
shed their spacesuits, and joyously wash each other in a nearby stream.
While frolicking with each other’s bodies, the astronauts' clothing is
stolen, leaving them naked. Not the least bit hindered, the now naked
ladies wonder the forest until they come across three jungle people. The
two frightened males run away, but the one female (later named Uvala)
is instantly drawn to astronaut Gaylor (Misty
Mundae). As the girls get to know one another, they are suddenly
besieged by a group of talking apes and captured. Sure enough, Gayor and
Uvala are thrown in a cage together and have at it like sex crazed
monkeys. Just as the captured women think they’re going to be enslaved,
along comes Dr. Cornholeus (Debbie Rochon) who wishes to prove that humans
deserve the same rights as apes. To prove this, she plays some zany music
to show all the nay sayers that humans have rhythm, therefore they have a
brain. Ya ok. So after much debate, the girls escape the bad apes, run for
their lives, engage in more lesbian sex, rap a tune, and Gaylor eventually
rides her ship to safety. Or does she? Hmmm…
Although in the same vein as past Seduction Cinema erotic parodies,
Playmate of the Apes takes the goofiness a bit too far this time. I am
beginning to think that silliness and erotica are not a good mix. As usual
with SC releases, the sex scenes are plentiful and all the lesbian action
is softcore. Aside form Misty Mundae (long time readers of Askew know my
feeling towards her), I was not impressed with the rest of the female
cast. Debbie Rochon, another b-movie favorite of mine, does co-star, but
is hidden behind a monkey mask and remains clothed. It would have been
great if Debbie got in to the action while wearing the monkey mask. The
DVD includes outtakes, cast interviews, two trailers, and some other
stuff. Watch/buy this one for Misty. – Denis Sheehan
