Mr. Peters' Pets / Everybody Loves It / 50,000 B.C. (Before Clothing) (Blu-ray) ***Preorder*** 8/5

One of the silliest (and perhaps stupidest) “adults only” features of all time was Peter Perry Jr.’s Mr. Peters’ Pets, which employed the classic formula of the so-called Nudie Cutie film: the naked female form is presented in the least objectionable way, usually seen through the eyes of a harmless male goofball. Alfred Hopson stars as a pet shop owner who transforms himself into a variety of cuddly animals, thereby gaining entry into the boudoirs of his shapely female clients. Also featured in this collection are two bonus films mastered from vintage 35mm prints: the time travel fantasy 50,000 B.C. and the MAD Magazine-style TV parody Everybody Loves It, narrated (believe it or not) by a four-leaf clover. Filled with cringe-inducing comedy and devoid of genuine eroticism, the Nudie Cutie was a short-lived phenomenon, but has become a beloved relic of the collapse of Hollywood censorship.
