PEEKARAMA presents the wildest, rarest, and most scandalous theatrical hardcore double features. Taking its name from one of the earliest "all action" sex theatre chains, each PEEKARAMA release presents two themed, full length feature films, both meticulously restored, thus giving you the opportunity to enjoy an old fashioned dirty movie double feature at home!

Hyapatia Lee was one of the biggest names during the twilight years of theatrical hardcore. As she began to take more creative control over her film appearances, including helping to author their screenplays, she also brought her husband, Bud, into the mix to serve as her director; a decision which would help launch his own lengthy filmmaking career. Presented here are two of Hyapatia’s final theatrical features, and Bud’s directing debut, both scanned and restored in 2K by Peekarama. Making their way through the English countryside on their way to Canterbury, a group of travelers rest each night and conclude their evenings by sharing the sultriest of erotic fables in this delightful hardcore adaptation of Chaucer’s classic tome. A big budget comedy-costume epic, THE RIBALD TALES OF CANTERBURY mixes bawdy humor and elegant eroticism and co-stars Colleen Brennan (Sharon Kelly), Mike Horner, Buffy Davis, Beverly Bliss, Peter North, and more. Radio station KNUT has been struggling to sustain their listenership, and when their top sponsor threatens to pull out for good, bossman Gary threatens to fire the entire staff unless they can get ratings way up. DJ Tasty Tastums knows just what to do and switches the programming to a much sexier selection of lister call-ins. Featuring supporting performances from Kristara Barrington, Stacey Donovan, Karen Summer, Mike Horner, Gail Force, Ashley Welles, and more, this cheeky and well paced comedy combines now-nostalgic 80s pop culture references with smoldering sex.

Reviews

Classic movies, great transfer and packaging

"Solid double-feature with two above-average movies. Both films are very funny, very entertaining, and very sexy. Hyapatia Lee shines in both. Colleen Brennan is fantastic in Canterbury, as well. Great-looking and sounding transfer, clear and high-quality."

Michael V. (5/5)

Solid Pairing

"Solid offering of two adult films. In concept, I like "Ribald Tales Of Canterbury", but it wasn't as good as I expected. Previously had the DVD, and I guess I remembered it better. I do really like seeing Colleen Brennan. "Tasty" was a little better overall. I always feel like I should like Hyapatia Lee more than I do, but she doesn't connect with me for some reason."

Adam C. (4/5)

Lavish and Beautifully Restored

"A visually rich and playful take on medieval storytelling, presented here in excellent quality. The transfer looks strong, with vibrant colors and impressive detail that really bring the ornate sets and costumes to life. Audio is clear and well-balanced. The overall package feels premium and thoughtfully curated. A standout release for fans of classic European cult cinema"

Thomas L. (5/5)

Boring

"I hate to say it, but this movie could not be more dull. Tasty and Canterbury both are."

Dorothy C. (2/5)

Great release by Peekarama

"Two great flicks from Peekarama with lots of comedy, great women and good scenes. Nice variation in the scenes and great Hyapatia Lee movies! Nice transfer and overall a great release by Peekarama!"

Onno G. (5/5)

Double the Hypatia Lee

"Ribald Tales of Canterbury boasts better more costumes, sets, and production than similar hardcore movies. The structure also naturally works well for it too. Having Tasty as well is a nice little bonus."

Marcus P. (4/5)

Great scan of a classic!

"A classic film from a classic actress. Both films looked great and the commentaries were interesting. Happy to have this film!"

Nathan M. (5/5)

Blast From the Past!

"Great double feature from Peekarama. Blu-Ray upgrade for one of my favorite mid-80's flicks, plus a fun little romp in Tasty. All packaged up with a nice slip, and reversible cover. You can never have too much Hyapatia Lee!"

TJ W. (5/5)

Ribald Tales of Canterbury and Tasty

"This was an upgrade purchase from the original dvd. I like that the cover of the original release is intact but I love the slipcover for the Tasty cover art. This is a great double feature. One I happily bought twice."

Ant D. (5/5)
