Ultimate Erotic Fantasy, The Review

Reviewed by astroknight  on  10/8/2000

Running Time: 90 min. (the cover states approx. 110 min.)

Production Year: 1997

Director: Various

Cast: According to the cover - Jenna Jameson, Asia Carrera, Felicia, Jenteal, Jeanna Fine, Melissa Hill, Debi Diamond, Misty Rain, Shayla LaVeaux, Celeste, Julia Ann, Nicole Lace, Kaylan Nicole, Crystal Gold, Paula Price, Draghixa, Marc Davis, Randy West, Steven St. Croix, Steve Drake, and Aaron Colt

Extras: Trailers, website access, and a photo gallery. Not much, but I don't expect a lot of extras on a compilation video.

Audio Quality: Very good

Video Quality: A little grain, but I think all of the features the scenes were taken from were shot on film, which would explain it.

Music: The music is all very erotic and fits the scenes well. It ranges from being very quiet in the background to only music with no production sounds at all.

Initial Expectations: Fairly high. Ultimate had some really good stars and hot scenes in the past. It shouldn't be hard for them to make a really good compilation disc.

Initial Reaction: There's a lot of discrepancies between the cover and the DVD, but all the sex was really hot.

Disc Problems: The sound would not work when I played the disc on my DVD - ROM. When I watched it in my DVD player, it went back to the main menu after the opening credits.

Review: 'The Ultimate Erotic Fantasy' is a collection of 8 scenes from 4 of Cameron Grant's films. There is one scene from 'Erotic Visions', two from 'The Dinner Party', one from 'Palace Of Pleasure', two from 'Fantasy Chamber', and two from 'Elements of Desire'. All the scenes are very good, and have been transferred quite well on the DVD. Even 'The Dinner Party', which is well known as being one of the all time worst transfers of a film to DVD looks pretty good. The group scene is a little dark, but it still looks pretty good. The 'doctor's office' scene between Debi Diamond, Celeste, and Misty Rain appeared to have transferred quite well. The picture is clear and
The only scene taken from 'The Palace of Pleasure' is a nice little scene between Steven St. Croix and Melissa Hill. The only other straight couple scene is from 'Fantasy Chamber' between Steve Drake and Nicole Lace on a stair landing. Both of these scenes are very well done. Also from 'Fantasy Chamber' we have an all - girl scene involving Felicia, Jenteal, and Misty Rain which is outstanding. It's a little more hardcore, involving a lot of toys along with hot wax and oil. The three girls really work good together and have some great, slightly nasty chemistry. There's also an all - girl scene from 'Elements of Desire' with Jenna and Draghixa. It's a nice scene from early in Jenna's career (at the time she was going as Daisy). There's nothing really notable here except for Jenna's presence. The only sound in the scene is the music, so unfortunately one doesn't get to hear Jenna's trademark squealing.
The only complaint I had about the sex scenes were that a couple seemed cut short. The all girl scene with Jenteal, Nicole Lace, and Jeanna Fine from 'Erotic Visions' seemed like it wasn't quite finished. The final scene in the feature between Celeste and Woody Long and taken from 'Elements of Desire' could have also been a couple seconds longer. Celeste has some remarkable oral skills, and she can really be a great recipient of a cum shot. The scene cut off right at the end, which was a let down if you're a fan of Celeste.
There are quite a few problems with 'The Ultimate Erotic Fantasy'. First, and perhaps most important, is that not everybody listed on the cover are in the feature. Asia Carrera, Shayla LaVeaux, and Paula Price aren't anywhere to be found. This might not be completely true, as one of the shadows in the opening credits looked like it might have been Asia. Julia Ann is also barely in the feature. She has a shot that lasts perhaps 15 seconds of masturbation. Also, not all of the stills shown on the back are in the feature. A shot from the Celeste / Misty Rain lesbian scene in 'Elements of Desire' is shown on the back cover, but isn't in the feature. Neither is the Julia Ann, Shayla, and Aaron Colt threesome from the same movie. Perhaps these two scenes were to be part of the feature and were forgotten. The cover states a feature length of approx. 110 min, and instead it's barely 90 min. Twenty minutes would have probably included those two scenes. It would have made the front cover stating 8 scenes incorrect, but what kind of idiot is going to complain about that? Instead, it had me going back to see if they left off 2 scenes that I looked forward to, especially the Julia Ann scene. If mistakes on the cover aren't bad enough, the feature itself also contains major screw - ups. In the one scene from 'Palace of Pleasure' the screen states that the scene involves Nikki Sterling. First, it's Nici, but that's a fairly common error that I can let go. The major problem is that Melissa Hill is in the scene, not Nici Sterling.
Due to the problems I stated, I really want to give 'The Ultimate Erotic Fantasy' a low rating. There are also virtually no extras on the DVD, which I feel would support the low rating. The sex is so hot and the transfer very well done, that I can't make myself give it a poor, or even average, rating. This is a hot feature, and although I would have included a couple more scenes, as whoever did the cover must have believed also, whoever chose the scenes chose well. Sadly, the blatant errors on the cover and in the feature make it appear that Ultimate / Adam & Eve didn't really care about this release. 'The Ultimate Erotic Fantasy' is still enough to make you want to watch more of Cameron Grant's work.

Raincoat Factor: It's a wanker's dream.

Overall: If one ignores all the errors on the cover, and even on in the feature itself, 'The Ultimate Erotic Fantasy' is one of the best compilation discs out there. There isn't a bad looking person here, and the sex is some of the hottest out there. The audio and video quality are also very good.
