Colin's Sleazy Friends, The Best Of DVD

Billed as "Wayne's World for Adults", Colin's Sleazy Friends has become America's most notorious cult cable-television viewing since struggling comedian Colin Malone started it back in 1992. Subtle it ain't. The premise is simple: to invite sex industry insiders, porn stars--on the whole, it must be said, of the female and spectacularly breasted variety--and the occasional outsider to provide a very thin veneer of intellectual analysis into the studio to chat, demonstrate their art or strut their foul-mouthed stuff for the overweight, uncouth and hairy Colin. According... to Malone, it's first and foremost a comedy show. And occasionally it is very funny indeed. Eye-popping moments include Veronica Brazil's frank account of masturbatory over-indulgence, a demonstration of a sling on a bungee rope and a shaving session that leaves nothing to the imagination. Once you've heard one raucous discussion about the merits of double penetration, though, you've probably heard them all. And unless your appetite for silicon-enhanced girl-on-girl nipple nuzzling and amateur gynaecology is insatiable, a little of Colin's Sleazy Friends goes a long way. On the other hand, it presents a lack of inhibition which will be a whole new world for the average terrestrial viewer and certainly generates a voyeuristic appeal all its own. And as an ironic take on the porn trade, stripped of any aura of eroticism, it works very well. Whether Malone had that in mind is another question. On the DVD: The Very Best of Colin's Sleazy Friends on DVD is, depending on your point of view, either of simply dismal sound and picture quality or an authentic evocation of home video transmitted over cable. Plenty of extras include outtakes and behind-the-scenes footage, all of which shed more light on the bizarre studio world in which acres of naked female flesh are paraded, poked, prodded and jiggled by Malone, his sidekick Dino and their totally uninhibited guests.--Piers Ford [show more]
