These Parliament Video offerings have the same basic thrust: women doing nothing but masturbatory solos. Beyond that, they couldn't be more unalike. Hefty Mamas is the understated title of the year. There are two women featured here in lengthy dildo encounters; one could be called fat and the other is nothing less than grotesquely obese. Unless you're into this kind of extreme body type, Layla in the shower will give you worse nightmares than the first time you saw Psycho. On the other hand, if you're an aficionado of flab, Layla might be the cream in your coffee. So the rating on something like this has to be a compromise. As a fat freak's specialty tape, it still leaves something to be desired—I'm sure there are sexier hefties out there than these whales. At least there's no deception involved— there are plenty of photos of both women on the tape box, so you know just what you're getting.

Lonesome Ladies is a very pleasant diversion: ten women that vary from good-looking to gorgeous playing straight to the camera with a battery of sex aids. A perfect idea for a video magazine—just when a woman begins to get a touch monotonous, another takes her place. Individual shots are assembled with slow, distracting blackouts between them, but otherwise, special effects are used to good advantage (particularly with black beauty Mauvis in an outdoor vignette) and there's not really a single bad scene in the bunch.
