The two-part Three Musketeers was originally shot in 1992, but didn't see release until 1996, when it garnered a considerable amount of praise for its campy script, lavish sets and elegant costumes.  The dual-layered disc runs nearly three hours, is all-region compatible, and includes chapter stops and a brief photo gallery.

In what we hope is not a new trend for Sunshine (they've shown such promise with recent releases!) the multi-angle feature trumpeted on the front of the packaging is horribly misleading: for the first five minutes of the feature, "angle two" displays a handful of hardcore clips from various Philmore butts videos, played back MOS.

And that's it.

This is a potentially disastrous marketing move, one that a too-oft-burned consumer isn't likely to forget.  Ever.  We strongly advise retailers who carry this disc -- the movie is pretty good, after all -- to let your customers know.

For its DVD release, the marathon World's Biggest Bang-Off has been distilled to a fairly juicy 90 minutes on a (dual-layered) DVD-9, with commentary by Ron Jeremy and others, and pre- and post-bang interviews with the contestants including winner Kendra Jade, and runners-up Candy Apples, Deelicious, Houston, Victoria Steele, and Cassidy.  The disc is all-region compatible, and includes a brief photo gallery, a handful of trailers, an explanation of the multi-angle feature, and a hard copy of Sunshine's growing DVD catalog.

There are 15 chapters, but the disc is "multi-angle" -- with "angles" two and three consisting of MOS footage of assorted contestants getting banged -- for just the first five chapters.  Also note that, as far as we could tell, at least some of the footage was repeated later on the disc: A little disappointing to be sure, but a considerable improvement over the Musketeers and Forbidden Rio/Eating Alessandro (see review above) "multi-angle" debacles.
