Deep Throat (Blu-ray) (Sunset Ent.) review summaries:
Flash's
Sunset Entertainment could have made a definitive collector's edition of Deep Throat with a new color corrected 2K scan of Deep Throat, a 2K scan of Deep Throat - Part 2, with the uncut version of the film, and collected all of the extras that have appeared on the various Deep Throat releases over the years. Instead, we get this release, which doesn't offer anything that hasn't already been offered before. If you don't own either the High Def Entertainment DVD of Deep Throat or the Intimate Film Blu-ray of Deep Throat the Sunset Entertainment release might be worth buying on a significant sale.

Deep Throat (Blu-ray) (Intimate) review summaries:
Flash's
Deep Throat is a historically significant film within the adult film industry due to the part the film played in kicking off the porno chic era. That aside, Deep Throat is nowhere near the best film to come out of the golden age of adult films nor was it anywhere near the best film to have been made by Gerard Damiano. Deep Throat is a cute comedy that will give the viewer some laughs and offers some nice looking sex scenes. Deep Throat is worth watching but don't expect anything groundbreaking here. Intimate Film has done a frustrating job with their Blu-ray and DVD combo mediabook release of Deep Throat. The image appears to have been upscaled from 720p poorly to 1080p for the release and the audio sounds very flat. [read the full review]

Inside Deep Throat review summaries:
Ryder7's
A documentary exploring the societal impact the adult film known as Deep Throat had on mainstream America. "Deep Throat" was just another X-Rated adult film when it was made in 1972. Finished in six days, for the sum of $25,000, (financed by the mob) the film to date has grossed over $600 Million dollars. Inside Deep Throat makes a decent albeit incomplete attempt at explaining how & why it became so popular. The documentary explores the subject of pornography, and how the U.S. Government under Nixon had a problem with it. It's interesting to note the timeliness of this documentary in light of the current Bush Administrations' recent witchhunting pronouncement on an all new "war on porn"... It seems the events of 30 years ago are trying to replay themselves and makes Inside Deep Throat a must see. Deep Throat was made by former hairdresser and acclaimed porn director Gerard Damiano and starred an actress who went by the screen name of Linda Lovelace. [read the full review]

I had high hopes for Inside Deep Throat but the film fell short of what I was hoping for. That isn't to say it is not an enjoyable film to watch, but expect more of an overview of culture in the 70s and the rise of adult films then than a documentary that manages to focus directly on Deep Throat. Fans of films from the Golden Age will probably enjoy this film and viewers who don't understand why some adult movie studios are afraid of going to jail for content in adult films should watch this film as well. I'd recommend giving the film a rental over purchasing it. [read the full review]
