Mr. Peters' Pets / Everybody Loves It / 50,000 B.C. (Before Clothing)
Directed by Peter Perry Jr., Phillip Mark, Warner Rose
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.
