Dated but interesting
"The Orientalism of a certain period is always kind of fascinating to me. This is a great double feature set."

"Sleazy in the best way. Pick up a copy if you can find one out there."
Drive-In Double Feature
"Anthony Spinelli is one of my favorite directors from the golden age era. The Night Caller, Dixie Ray and of course SexWorld are all great. These two mid 70s efforts feel more like quickies, but Spinelli retains his unique style. The cast for both films are nothing to write home about. Except for Linda Wong and Joey Silvera I didn't recognize any faces. Picture quality is fairly rough, as they had to work with 35mm prints for the restorations. Still, these rarities will most likely never look better. Recommended for any Spinelli fan!"
Oriental babysitter plus one
"Great transfers, lucky I got hold of it before it was OOP."
The First Time / Oriental Babysitter
"Two San Francisco feature films from the 1970s with great transfers. Not the best films Anthony Spinelli made but decent nonetheless. I'm glad I picked this up before it went out of print."
So So Spinelli Double Bill
"If you don't go in expecting Sex World or Dixie Ray, these are decent enough Spinelli flicks. Nowhere near his best though."
The firstTime / Oriental Babysitter
"Two seventies gems. . . Anthony Spinelli brings a sordid San Francisco 'double vision' that will leave you with the same!. . . I know I need new glasses now!!!😎"
Drive-In Movies? Really!
"This is a weird collection of disks, running from exploitation horror, real oddities, softcore nudie/cuties to early 70s hardcore. This disk falls into the latter variety, and I’m really not sure what sort of ‘drive-in’ would be showing these! These are grindhouse films - and although I’m not sure whether any sort of restoration has been applied, given the vintage the prints are in very good condition. These disks, being on the VS label, are being discontinued so grab them while you still can. As for the films themselves - they’re more curiosities - a time capsule of the industry at the time, than genuinely titillating - but for all that, they are entertaining. These two are from the mid-70s, and very much if their time with their focus on Asian tropes that would raise eyebrows now. Pure exploitation on multiple levels."
Classic Spinelli
"Great accompaniment to some of his more well known work. Not as good as some of those, but still worthwhile"
Oriental Babysitter is Superb
"Amazing transfer, and it's exceptional seeing a rate actress like Dory Devon in such first rate release."
