Taxi Girls / Heavenly Desire (Blu-ray)

Israeli immigrant Jaacov Jaacovi rose to fame in the late 70s through a series of ambitious erotic comedies, which capitalized on the ‘similarity’ of their lead actresses with those of popular Hollywood starlets. But beyond their infamous marketing, Jaacovi proved himself to be adept at crafting slick, clever, and effortlessly entertaining films, the two best of which are offered here in their fully uncensored versions. When a group of Los Angeles street prostitutes decide that they’ve had enough hassles with the law, they come up with an ingenious plan to increase business while reducing busts: open a sex themed taxi service. But as their ridership exponentially grows, a group of chauvinistic hacks begin to plot a dastardly revenge Starring Nancy Suiter and featuring supporting performances from Serena, Aubrey Nichols, John Holmes, and Jamie Gillis, TAXI GIRLS has been newly restored from its 35mm original negative. When Mary-Lou (Seka) and Rosebud (Serena), two working girls in the Old West, are accidentally shot to death during a duel, they’re revived from the dead by The Devil (Johnnie Keyes) and given an opportunity to be admitted into hooker heaven (aka, Hell) if they’re able to corrupt a group of virginal sorority girls who have taken up residence in a former brothel! A completely wild sex comedy which co-stars Jamie Gillis, Eileen Wells, and Mike Ranger, HEAVENLY DESIRE is presented in a new restoration of its 35mm original negative.
