"Two solid plot lines, enough to make these a fun double-feature. The Sensuous Fly Girls is the better of the two, just for the idea of women supplied for sex on a mission to Mars. And hookups during and after high school in School Girl Reunion? Yep."
"Shaun Costello double feature, with star C. J. Lang, restored from 35mm negative elements."
"Kim Pope is excellent. Absolutely worth a pick up just for her."
"Great double feature release with fantastic transfer and restoration, that looks just gorgeous! Highly recommended release with fantastic packaging design."
"This is a double feature that makes perfect sense; both movies fit well together and likely look better now than they did in their original run."
"Great double feature,Kim Pope and C.J Laing what's not to like here."
"Two films on this release, as is generally the case. To begin with, the second movie (Sensuous Fly Girls) is fairly average. I can't really say much more than that, the storyline and sex scenes are all fairly average and forgettable. School Girl Reunion is about a reunion of sorts, not really of school girls but I think that's just a word to grab a bit of attention. It's essentially a woman and a guy talking, reminiscing about their days at school (I don't know the US school system, but I'm guessing high school rather than college?). Either way, they look older in the flashbacks than they're supposed to be and it's never that convincing. What is convincing are some of the sex scenes, particularly one featuring a teacher (a slightly older lady) who is really enjoying herself. Don't get me wrong, she's not a stunner, but it's better than seeing the usual stars doing the usual things all filmed from all the usual angles. I won't spoil the ending, but this is actually worth watching for the storyline (even if the 'twist' is predictable). The girl really is convincing and is able to convince the viewer she cares for the guy, which makes it a little bit better than your average porn movie. It's these little moments and scenes which for me can make or break an adult movie. It's nothing amazing, but I think it's one of the better ones from the Peekarama range."
"Reunion is a bit depressing story wise and Fly Girls is quite light hearted"
"This release features a couple of lesser known Shaun Costello films from the mid 70s. These two fims feature some interesting talent, and some straight forward plots. Nothing too ground breaking here, however the Sensuous Fly Girls is definitely the better of the two films."
"School Girl Reunion about a girl who´s love of her life never knew how much he hurt her in High School and alas too late. All in flashbacks. Sensous Fly Girls was rather fun. Sending astronauts into space for a long long time what if they turn gay, better send a woman along to make sure they stay straight. Two great flicks from the golden age. Good transfers."
