The Films
Candy is a sexy college student who is becoming increasingly curious about sex. She decides to learn the hard way and throw herself upon the handsome gardener, Manuel. After her father walks in on them and freaks out he lands in the hospital. Candy's visit to her father in the hospital leads to another chance sexual encounter and then she leaves town to visit her aunt and has sex with just about every man that takes a chance at her along the way including a random guy in the park and a monk. In the sequel, Candy ends up in Hollywood, looking for her big break she falls into the hands of the sleaze ball Johnny Dooropener who whores her out to every sleazeball in town. Candy is becoming quite popular around town and believes she is getting her big break!


EROTIC ADVENTURES OF CANDY is a pretty solid little piece of smut, filled with plenty of sex and a story that works well enough to keep things going. The real gem here is CANDY GOES TO HOLLYWOOD as it is a genuinely funny piece of X-rated comedy. If there isn't tits and ass on screen then it's likely that there is something funny going on and sometimes we get blessed with both.

The Audio & Video
Vinegar Syndrome's DVD of these two features from director Gail Palmer looks pretty damn nice. There's a bit of white speckling in each film but mostly the transfers are clean and colors are strong. The 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfers maintain the original aspect ratio of each film. The mono English tracks are mixed perfectly, and free of background noise or audible hiccups.


The Extras
Each film has a trailer included


The Bottom Line
Another winner from Vinegar Syndrome with these sex filled coming-of-age comedies about young Candy.
