We're a dollar late and a day short- or is it a day late and a dollar short? Anyway, there's not much to see in mainstream releases this week on DVD and Blu-ray, but we do have some interesting SKINtage titles to tell you about: First, feast on Euro-eyefuls Laura Gemser and more in the giallo thriller Murder Obsession (1980) nude on Blu-ray. And stay in that wayback machine for the sex comedy Naughty Teen (1977), nudely re-released on DVD, and the beautiful Blu-ray Blaxploitation rack of Marlene Clark in Ganja Hess (1973). Then, modern-day purveyors of cinematic cheese The Asylum keep the skinematic tradition alive with 2-Headed Shark Attack (2012), already nude on Blu-ray but now also on DVD.
Plus, take in over 3 1/2 hours of blood, boobs and brawlin' babes as the exploitation compilation 42nd Street Forever hits Blu-ray with trailers for skinema classics like The Pom Pom Girls, Maid in Sweden, Chained Heat and more:
A gruesome and erotic treat from top to bottom, Riccardo Freda’s cult film L’Ossessione che uccide (1980) has something to please fans of horror, sexploitation, and everything in between. The story centers on actor Michael Stanford (Stefano Patrizi), a man with an unusually disturbing past. Having knifed his father to death many years ago, Michael has attempted to put the past behind him, but the legacy of the horrible event lingers. During a visit to his mother’s house with girlfriend Deborah (Silvia Dionisio), Michael discovers that history will not leave him alone as guests of the family are killed one by one by an elusive, terrifying force. In typical giallo fashion, Freda’s film features an ensemble cast of deliciously curvy babes. Laura Gemser and Anita Strindberg join Dionisio for scenes of carnal pleasure and mortal terror.
A middle-aged widower falls in love with his sexy niece in the Italian comedy Naughty Teen (1977). Corrado (Lucio Flauto) has been living a lonely life since his wife’s death. But then he agrees to let his niece, Daniela (Ursula Heinle), stay with him when she comes to visit Milan. Daniela bears a strong resemblance to his late wife, and Corrado manages to stumble across her in the nude many, many times. Soon shy Corrado is deeply infatuated with her, but Daniela already has another suitor vying for her affections. Lusty maid Femi Benussi bends over to show us her panty-clad butt at the 29-minute mark, then bares the full enchilada 1-hour, 23-minutes in. Ursula Heinle bares boobs, buns, and fluffy bush throughout, with her breast scene being a long sudsy scrub in the shower 26-minutes in which reveals every inch of her supple body. Thanks for the heinie, Ms Heinle!
The cult classic Ganja Hess (1972) is a milestone in African-American cinema and fright films alike. When George (Bill Gunn), the lab assistant of Dr. Hess (Duane Jones), gets sliced by an ancient knife from Africa, he becomes infected with vampirism. He then turns the doctor into a bloodsucker, and Hess tries to conceal his Nosferatu-like ways from his gorgeous wife, Ganja (Marlene Clark). That plan becomes complicated as the movie expands into a rich, complex, profoundly symbolic tale of class, race, addiction, and other essential human issues. Oh, and Marlene gets topless.
You’ve heard of 2 Girls, 1 Cup, right? Now prepare yourself for 2 Heads, 1 Shark in the Asylum stinker 2-Headed Shark Attack (2012). Carmen Electra and Charlie O’Connell head up a young, tan, and impeccably toned cast as college professors leading a 
semester abroad at sea. After a mysterious creature (a two-headed shark, perhaps?) chews through the hull of their boat, the hard-partying crew is stuck on a sandy atoll. But the tide is quickly risingSpeaking of rising, you’ll reach your own personal high-water mark when you see Amber English and Anna Jackson leading a gleesome threesome on the beach. We get a long, lingering look at their perky life preservers as they make out in the surf before inviting a dude to join them. You’ll wish you had two heads!
