classix comment's
Nu Tech's release of Gary Graver's 1975 classic film 3 A.M. is certainly one of the finest classic releases to come from any porn company. This superior film with masterful performances from Georgina Spelvin and one shot wonder Charles Hooper was the first hardcore feature from former Orson Welles protégé Graver (Amanda By Night, V The Hot One). Graver skillfully combines Bergman like cinematographic techniques with almost existential philosophies, resulting in one of the most accomplished hardcore films ever made. [read the full review]

Running Time: 86 min. Production Date: sometime in the 1970s Director: Robert McCallum Cast: Georgina Spelvin, Rhonda Gallard, Judith Hamilton, Clair Dia, Frank Mauro, Charles Hooper, Rob Rose, and Sharon Thorpe Initial Expectations: NuTech has been doing a good job bringing back some of the classic adult films from the 1970s. Im hoping this is another one worth their effort. Initial Reaction: Its a nice change from todays standard porn, but kind of a let down. Who Should Watch It : Fans of classic porn, couples, and people who like a strong storyline and extremely realistic looking people Who Should Avoid It: Fans of hardcore porn and raincoaters Audio /Video Quality: Although it might be older than I am, NuTech has done a pretty good job of restoring 3 a.m. . The audio is pretty clear throughout the feature as is the video. There are quite a few scratches in the film and a lot of it is dark, but for the age of the film its pretty good.

Hot Rackets review summaries:
fu_q's
The "frigid", brunette legend, Candida Royalle, goes to investigate when her husband, Jon Martin, is spending far too much of his time at the local, members-only tennis club and far too little of it with her. Of course, what she finds is that the club is predominantly a horny haven for husbands and ho's, whose focus is distinctly more on fucking than it is on fuzzy balls and rackets. Whether Candida will get totally pissed off by her discovery or merely succumb to the club's various sexual trappings becomes the pressing question of the day. Such is the case in "Hot Rackets", an exceptional, 1979 release from Cal Vista and director Robert McCallum. [read the full review]

Unfortunately they don't make films like this today, with as much work going into the non-sex portions as the sexual portions fans of the classics and fans of adult films with a plot will find this to be one they'll want to pick up for their collection. Viewers that require nasty sex or long sex scenes may not find this film to their liking but for everyone else, this is definitely one you should rent, if not just purchase. This film is also perfectly acceptable for couples to watch. [read the full review]

Directed by Robert McCallum 1979 Runtime: 1 hour 20 minutes 38 seconds Truly a classic adult film. That it is a product of the seventies is clear from the opening credits where the screen is broken into four parts with a tennis ball in the middle. Over the tennis ball are displayed the names of the cast and primary crew, and the four screens play various clips from the film whetting the viewers appetite and preparing them for what is about to come. It all starts when Herb Adler (John Martin) wakes up and rolls over to his nude wife, Liz (Candida Royalle). He begins to grope her and tries to arouse her, but she will have none of it. Through an angry exchange on Herb's part, we find out that this is their usual behavior. Herb claims she is frigid. She does not deny this, and Herb storms off to get a shower. In the shower, the maid Sally (Chris Cassidy) expresses her sympathy for Herb. [read the full review]

Erotic City (NuTech) review summaries:
classic connoisseur's
Year: 1985 Length: 86 minutes Even though this is part of the NuTech line of Classic dvd collecion series this is certainly no classic. You might think it is by looking at the cast involved (Harry Reems, Jamie Gillis, John Leslie, Amber Lynn) and directed by Robert McCallum, but unfortunately the sex and the storyline to this movie are severely lacking. The plot to this story is supposed to be something similar to that of a soap opera, but I didn't find it to be any more similar to a soap opera than any other porn film I've seen. Basically the problem is that there was no plot at all and this is a problem in a porn film that pretends to have a plot. This movie pretended to have a story line and it had just enough to get in the way but not enough to make any sense, so this is one problem. Either they should have just went wall to wall sex with this one or have developed the story line more fully and made a full feature sex film out of this movie. [read the full review]
