Tony's Initiation (Le Salon) Review

Reviewed by Joe Shaver  on  2/6/2004

What a total rip off this thing is! I had the VHS version and found it so uninteresting that I stored it away in a bottom box in my closet. But I had forgotten how bad it was until watching it on DVD. As a matter of fact the DVD is even worse because it cuts completely the last scene of the film—a duo between porn legends Tim Kramer and Michael Christopher that was the only thing worth watching. But this is not—I repeat NOT—on the DVD. So why is Tim’s picture on the cover? To lure you into buying it.

What we are left with is a dreary, choppy piece of crap that appears to have been edited by Jack the Ripper and silly, boring, lackluster sex. The first name of the director was “Vex”. It is singularly appropriate.

The sound track has unceasing easy listening music form the 80’s that will drive you nuts. There are sloppy chapter entry points and nothing else in the extras section.

Added to this is the fact that it has been poorly transferred to DVD. Lines run through the film as though the DVD was made from a badly duped copy! (My VHS has a better picture.) In short, it is a total waste of time and money.

Looking for the worst film on DVD? I think I’ve found it!
