Barry Mahon and photographer Bunny Yeager teamed up for two feature films that document a particular and peculiar epoch in U.S. regional porn history, duly preserved on video by Something Weird's Mike Vraney. All three of them are all deceased now, but this record lingers on.
The hour-long feature that played at Adult houses before real porn was made legal is documentary style but attempts a narrative. Numerous figure models are shown in the Miami opus, with Yeager under the gun to complete photo shoots over the weekend for a magazine and a $15,000 contest. Acting is quite poor, with neophyte blonde model Terry the subject of attention as Bunny needs to get her photos right and more importantly get approval to use them (her boyfriend Joe must give the final okay).
Home life of Bunny and her husband is depicted almost humorously, and we get a parade of real models of the era posing topless, likely enough to turn on a 1963 theatrical audience. I enjoyed the film's followup set in Vegas, but this more authentically sets the look and mood of the Sunshine State at the height of its risqué history.
