The crown jewel of sophisticated erotica, filmmaker Cecil Howard's COMMAND CINEMA presents lavish Blu-ray and 4K UHD editions of Howard's own masterworks, alongside those he produced with other hardcore auteurs such as Chuck Vincent, Roberta Findlay, and Armand Weston.

Before finding acclaim as hardcore's greatest actor’s director, Chuck Vincent first dipped his toes into unsimulated territory by helming this duo of low-budget sex comedies for Cecil Howard. Rich with Vincent's distinct sense of humor, this set of forgotten New York programmers have been restored from their original 35mm camera negatives and are on Blu-ray for the first time, from Command Cinema.

The second of his hardcore features, HEAVY LOAD (1975) was Vincent’s box office breakthrough, winning him critical praise and financial success alike. Following the exploits of delivery driver Gus (Jeffrey Hurst), who finds himself fending off a near constant barrage of over-sexed women, including his wife Brenda (Darby Lloyd Rains), beefcake photographer Lillian (Samantha McLaren), waitress Phyllis (Andrea True), along with kinky couple Faith (Kim Pope) and her boy-toy (Jamie Gillis) who go as far as
kidnapping the hapless Gus for their perverted games. They all want a piece of his action while all Gus wants is to get a good night’s sleep! Also starring Susan Sloan and Helen Madigan, this fast-paced comedy graphically illustrates the hard-luck life of a working man.

Vincent’s first unsimulated feature, LECHER (1973), introduces Ray, a lothario and general pig of a man who, in spite of his looks and demeanor, has no problem coaxing all manner of women into his carnal web, be it an English governess, wealthy society lady, or even an innocent Girl Scout. But when Sandy, a sweet young hostess at a pizza parlor, tries to get him to take a more serious and romantic approach to his frenzied sex life, Ray begins to second guess his ways… is he truly capable of change?" More cynical than much of Vincent’s comedic output, LECHER wears its low budget as a badge of honor; making the most of its talented cast, amongst them Georgina Spelvin, Valerie Marron, and Helen Madigan.
