Date sent: Mon, 30 Sep 1996 00:09:16 -0400 (EDT) From: Joey MarkhamSubject: REVIEW: "Buttman's Ultimate Workout" This is an oldie, but a goodie! One of the earlier Buttman videos, this one contains the scene edited out from many copies all over the States because of a then-underaged Alexandria Quinn. Too bad since it also features Rocco Siffredi, whose Dario character has become popular as the Buttman series grew larger. I have no idea what movie 'Dario' was introduced, but cutting out this scene hurts the development of the character. Some of the dialog scenes with Rocco (thus Quinn) also featured the Laura/Dario storyline (I'm making this sound like a soap opera! :-) which is about a young girl (Zara Whites) obsessed with meeting her movie heartthrob (that's what Dario is). Since those clips were also deleted, I'm curious to know how they put the re-edited version together (I know they didn't film any replacement scenes). Anyhow, this is the full length version in all its glory and if you can find it - get it!! BUTTMAN'S ULTIMATE WORKOUT director: John Stagliano. Evil Angel, 1990. Running time: 120 minutes. cast: Zara Whites (=Zara), Patricia Kennedy, Sunny McKay, Alexandria Quinn, Madison, Darla Derriere, Talia James, T.T. Boy, Randy Spears, Tom Byron, Seymore Butts (=Bubba Brando), John Stagliano. scenes: - Patricia Kennedy, T.T. Boy - Sunny McKay, Alexandria Quinn (anal), Rocco Siffredi - Madison, Darla Derriere (anal), Seymore Butts - Talia James (dildo-anal), Tom Byron, John Stagliano - Patricia Kennedy, T.T. Boy, Randy Spears - Zara Whites (masturbation) - Zara Whites (anal), Rocco Siffredi Buttman is in a dark alleyway and points his camera up at the sky, at the full moon. He gets a close-up shot of it and tells himself out loud that cutting it in half would make it look like two perfectly small buttcheeks. "The love of my life," he says as if in a dream state. "My obsession" (yes, John, it most certainly is :-). Suddenly, we can hear footsteps in the distance and Buttman lowers his camera to reveal a woman (Patricia Kennedy) walking along. From what we can see (it is dark after all) she is dressed quite provocatively wearing a black, low-cut dress and black heels (her long legs are shown off quite well). She ends up standing against the side of a building and looks back in the distance she came from, as she lightly rubs her ass and leg. Her boyfriend (T.T. Boy) comes walking along like some macho man and approaches her. He touches her ass and they start kissing. Buttman can't believe his eyes and tries to move in closer, to capture it all. - This scene definitely contains the sleaze element (but in a fun way). Patricia looks like a frisky alleycat and as John prepares to zoom in on them, a large truck is seen driving by in the distance. After kissing, T.T. goes down to lick her pussy. Then he unzips, whips out his cock and fucks Patricia doggie style (stand-up). She squirms and makes faces, but it ends all too soon with a cumshot on her ass. As Patricia and T.T. stand there, Buttman moves a little too much and makes a noise (it seemed a bit fake) causing the two lovers to turn around. T.T. is shocked, saying "Fuck! Who the fuck is that?" and zips up in an instant. Patricia seems a little scared and disappears in another direction. Buttman takes off and turns around the corner of a building, hiding behind a car. With his camera still recording we can see T.T. running down the alleyway trying to find him (there wasn't all that much distance between John and T.T. earlier, he would've been able to spot John). Anyhow, as soon as T.T. is out of sight, Buttman panics and tries to find a place to hide out at. He ends up running inside a gym (empty at the time) and darts underneath a desk. Two other lovers (Darla Derriere and Seymore Butts, who were actually a real-life couple during the time of this filming) enter the room and Darla puts one knee up on a bench, starting to work out with a weight (meanwhile, our enthralled Buttman gets a nice close-up of Darla's derriere). Ricky (T.T.) suddenly barges into the room and asks Darla and Lou (Seymore) if they've seen some guy running outside. They say no but Darla mentions she thought she heard the door open just minutes earlier. "He must be in here!" Ricky realizes. "Some person with a video camera out there!". So Ricky and Lou check out one part of the building and Darla checks another. Buttman comes out from under the desk and heads for the door he came in from but he notices the girl in the alleyway coming (Patricia) so he searches the gym for another exit. He ends up hiding in some closet with a bench and other storage stuff. Seconds after he settles down, we can see (outside the closet) an area with weights that Ricky approaches (after giving up on the search for John). We can also hear Lou and Lisa (Patricia) talking and she tells him she'll be 'in the back' (where Ricky is). She heads over and eventually sits down (by this time, she's in John's and our view). Ricky lifts a weight and looks over at Lisa a few times as she lifts up her dress and reveals her ass (for us, not Ricky :-). Then she turns around and rubs her pussy through her black panties. She does it very slowly and really knows how to tease us. A man named Al (Randy Spears) enters the building and makes his way towards Lisa (he's Lou's business partner). She stands up and he gropes and spanks her. He teasingly says, "Come on you little slut! I know you like it!". Then Lou enters the room. Ricky then notices our Buttman-in-hiding and the guys run over to him, dragging him out into the open (but he remains on the floor with his camera looking up). Ricky and Lou are ready to beat him up but Al stops them because he recognizes John as an acquaintance of his. Al tells Lou he makes great videos and that maybe he could hire him to tape some of the rehearsals and workouts in the gym. Lou decides it's a good idea and now Buttman is in the clear, with Al telling him to come back another day. The next day. John's at his home with a female friend, Laura (Zara Whites). He's taping a video of her to present to his good buddy Dario (Rocco Siffredi) - whom you'll find out about shortly. Laura's wearing a white dress and looks pretty as she poses against a statue and talks to the camera. She's treating the male statue as if it were Dario. She rubs her hand all over it and teases Dario by playing with its bulge (Zara does a great job at being a cocktease!). She says she's been watching him for so long now and now it's his turn to watch her (by this point, she's slowly rubbing her ass against the bulge). John ends their session and she tells him she's glad she called him and that she'd do anything for a chance to meet Dario. "Well, maybe with this video I have a chance.. I hope!" she says. John replies, "Well, when he sees this video.. he'd have to be either dead or blind if he doesn't want to meet you". She giggles and says, "Well, I just hope he likes my ass as much as you do". As she starts to rub it (over her clothes still), John goes in closer (not with zoom). "He IS Italian," says John. "So probably he will". Laura agrees and mentions she saw John touching himself earlier while he was filming her. He jokes and says he just had a little itch and she giggles. Then Laura heads off and tells John he should be going to Dario's now to give him the video of her. Over at Dario's estate. Before actually meeting him, John films a segment of 'Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous' with our hostess Nikki (Sunny McKay). Nikki tells us that today we'll be visiting the Hollywood home of famous film star Dario Rossalini. "Dario has taken Hollywood by storm," she tells us. "Young girls like myself throw themselves at Dario everyday" (that Aussie accent of hers will just make you melt :-). Out steps Dario and a female friend named Lola (they don't actually say her name at all, but that's what's listed in the closing credits - played by Alexandria Quinn), who are up on a higher level. As soon as Nikki spots them, she secretly whispers to John to follow her. She tells us, by looking at Lola, that "a young groupie is making her move" (little did they all know just how young she actually was at the time :-). So Nikki sneaks up some stairs and spies on them. Dario sits down and Lola stands before him, touching herself (she is pre- boob job here and doesn't really look underaged, more like 19 or 20). Anyhow, we intercut between Lola/Dario and Nikki (who masturbates for the camera). The editing's excellent and provides us with two different levels of tease: one, where it's a single girl masturbation sequence, so, for fantasy value, you feel like reaching out for the feel and two, where a young girl teases an older man with body language, in which he eventually fulfills his desire by caressing her after not being able to take it anymore). When Nikki first notices John occasionally pointing the camera at her instead of the two they're spying on, she says "You're a naughty boy!". "I'm Italian too," he tells her. When John reaches out to touch her ass, Nikki pushes his hand away and says, "Now you're being much TOO naughty". Meanwhile, Lola's doing a little striptease for Dario and when she lifts up her dress we get to see that cute bubble butt of hers. Minutes later, Lola spots Nikki and shouts out, "Nikki, what the hell are you doing?". Nikki pulls up her bikini bottom quickly and says, "Uh, this is John. He's got a meeting with Dario. Uh, we were just coming - upstairs that is!". :-) Now the gang resides in Dario's bedroom. After being handed the videotape of Laura, Dario slips it into a vcr (meanwhile, both girls stand on either side of him rubbing themselves up against him erotically). "So," Dario says. "This is the girl I was supposed to meet?". (He doesn't really seem to be paying attention to the tv screen). John tells him she's the girl he videotaped earlier with his Betacam SP camera. "It's the best videotape quality available", John says. "That's a very good idea you know," says Dario. "I was going to the bars all the time to pick up a girl. But now I think I will hire you to find some girl for me". John lowers himself while pointing the camera upwards (getting a good view of Lola's butt). Then she and Nikki embrace eachother after Dario tears himself away from them to peep through the lens to see how good it looks. Then he turns over to look at Laura on his tv screen. "Look at this girl in the videotape," says Dario. "She doesn't seem to show very much... she's shy one!". "No," John intervenes. "I don't think she's shy!". Dario says that John should go back and film her again, this time getting her to show more. John agrees, then moments later he figures he's gotta leave Dario to his business with the girls. But Dario tells him to stay and have some fun. Always the one to have fun, Buttman sticks around and films our famous film star getting it on with the two hot blondes. - What a shame for this scene to be cut out from many copies - it's the hottest of the bunch! The girls start out by eagerly giving Rocco head (and they stare into the camera frequently as they do it). Then Alexandria takes over blowjob duty while Sunny rides Rocco's face. When Sunny cowgirls him, Alex takes her turn at face-sitting. They've just started and Rocco's already gasping and panting. Rocco does Sunny now in the missionary position while Alex rides her face. Now it's Quinn's turn for some poking and she gets it doggie style and mish. Sunny climbs atop Rocco's face again as soon as Quinn reverse cowgirls him (eventually doing the cowgirl). They get into so many positions it all seems a little 'rushed' (i.e. not too much time given for each position) but you won't mind at all - they're all into it and put on a sweat-filled show. Sunny rides him cowgirl again and they get into another mish (with Quinn riding Sunny's face again too). The girls now do a 69 and Rocco goes behind Alex (who's on top) and fucks her pussy. Then the girls switch places. Next up, Rocco and Alex do a mish-anal then a spoon-anal (some viewers might have thought that both girls did anal, but Sunny never performed anal sex throughout her porn career). Rocco's even sticking his fingers in the girls' mouths off and on, which they enjoy and their attitudes turn somewhat lewd. Things end with the two luscious lovelies blowing Rocco, but even as they stick their tongues out to catch his load most of it dodges them (however, Quinn gets a mini-shot in the face, hardly visible). "That was 'formidable'!" Rocco moans (and you'll think so too). This scene runs a little over seventeen minutes so with the other non- sex segments featuring Quinn, about thirty minutes should've been cut from the re-edited version. Nighttime. John's on the roof of some building in Santa Monica (a parking structure) and gets a beautiful view of part of the city (he's also trying to find a full moon but there isn't one this time around). As he leaves, he bumps into a girl (Talia James) on some stairs who says her name is Trish. He is very much absorbed by her beauty and shyly asks her if he can get some video shots of her. She ISN'T a shy one however and starts posing quite provocatively and making him drool (the lighting here is dim though, making it difficult to clearly read Talia's body language). She shakes her booty a few times and John tells her he can make her a star. "I've heard that before," she grins. They talk a bit more but she really has to get going to meet up with a girlfriend, so she teases him/us a bit with more butt shaking then disappears. You'll be thinking "what a tease!" but don't worry, she shows up again later. :-) The next day (or a few days later). We discover Buttman is now working at the gym, helping Lou capture some girls (Darla and Madison) working out. Of course, we get a lot of butt shots and they're as tantalizing as they'll ever get (Madison also has some very nice tan lines on her butt). Lou tries to get them to work on their biceps, but they're giggly and Cathy (Madison) is getting quite a kick out of looking at herself in John's monitor. Lou's had enough of the two girls fooling around so he works out with a weight just feet away from them. Now, the girls are working on 'bending over' as they stick out their tight tushies (Darla has quite a well-rounded butt it's no wonder she chose the last name 'Derriere' :-). Then they sneak up to Lou and decide to work out on him instead. "We're not done with the video yet!" exclaims Cathy and Lou tells the two girls to stop fucking around. "What, are you gonna complain about it?" Darla asks him then he smiles and says, "Actually.. no!". Then his clothes come off. - The girls start servicing Seymore with a blowjob. Darla then goes up to his face and offers him her breasts (they are the only fake pair in this movie and they aren't that big to make it look ridiculous). Next she offers him her pussy, so she rides his face as Madison still keeps her mouth busy. The girls switch places and Darla really loves to give head. As she works her tongue down, she says to Seymore "your balls are so big I can hardly fit them in my mouth". Darla even deep-throats him a few times. Then she works her way down even further and tongues his asshole. Later, Seymore gets to taste both girls (at one point doing a 69 with Madison, who's under him - and SHE even tongues his ass). They end up doing a whole variety of positions including mish, doggie and reverse-cowgirl. Darla does a reverse anal cowgirl (hot) and Madison's brief doggie poke sizzles as well. Darla later bends over and lets Seymore penetrate two fingers in her ass (with ease). Seymore looks into the camera and confirms to us that Darla likes it. Before the cumshot, Seymore pokes Darla doggie style (in which even a brief moment shows they're doing an anal) and he pulls out and cums all over her ass and back. Seymore then feeds Darla's hungry mouth again and gets her to deep throat him one more time. Back at Buttman's house. A somewhat enraged Laura shows up and tells him she can't believe Dario doesn't want to see her unless she shows more of herself. "Does he think that all I'm interested in is a stupid fuck?" she asks. John tells her that it's all HE'S interested in and she still can't believe it. "Dario should be romantic.. sentimental..", she says. "It's incredible! Didn't he see the passion in my eyes and the pounding of my heart just... right through these stupid clothes?!" (which she angrily removes - or rather, just slides down to show her breasts and ass. Laura shows us attitude and when she starts spanking herself, you know she's in heat and wants it badly). Over at Dario's. He's in his bedroom again with Nikki and Lola, while the more recent footage of Laura plays for him. Now HE can't believe what he sees. "This girl's crazy, John", Dario says. "I don't care how pretty she is. I don't need that in my life". John stutters and asks, "But Dario... can't you see that she's just acting? She's just putting on a show just so that you'll notice her!". "Of course she's acting!" Dario says, with frustration. "All women are actors and manipulators. This I know!". "But she's an animal!" John says. "I think she'd be incredible in bed!". "John, you know what kind of girl I like. I like girl with big, round, cool ass.. ok? Just like that one" (and he points at Lola's ass). So he wants John to find him another girl with a big butt and wants to forget all about Laura. Later that night. John has a friend over (Tom Byron) and he plays him the footage of Trish that he shot the other night, still in awe about it. He can't believe how much she opened up to him once he started flirting with her. Anyhow, this takes us to the 'scene of the crime' as Tom puts it and they're at the same building, walking up the same flight of stairs where John bumped into Trish. They make it out onto the roof and spot Trish admiring the view. John can't believe his luck and he and Tom slowly approach her. They chat a bit and, of course, Trish clearly remembers John. He tells her he showed Tom that footage of her and she smiles, asking if he liked it. Tom tells her it was sultry. They turn around to look at the view of Santa Monica and Trish starts rubbing herself. "I think she's got an exhibitionist quality," Tom says and she laughs. Then Tom suggests they go to John's studio - where they can take test shots of her. "Test shots?" she asks. "Yeah, test shots!" Tom replies. "You've got star potential!". So she agrees, but once they arrive at John's studio there's more light outside (filmed the next day I guess?). Tom shows Trish John's editing equipment then they head upstairs. The tease that she is, Trish can't quite make it all the way up the stairs without pausing to reveal her ass and fondle it. Tom takes over briefly then they manage to make it completely up the stairs and into the light. - There's a lot of ass worship in this scene. Talia James is a big girl with a body along the lines of Brittany (Paula Price's sister) - except Brittany's boobs are bigger. But Talia definitely has a round butt that Tom loves to rub his hands all over and spank (and when he does, her asscheeks jiggle like jello). While Tom bends down to taste her pussy, she pulls down John's pants and gives him head. She gets undressed eventually and takes her turn with Tom, giving him head (and tonguing his ass - there's a lot of that in this movie). Tom gets to slowly work his middle finger in Talia's ass then gets a dildo to anally penetrate her some more (John really focuses on her ass a lot - for those who love big, round butts you'll be in heaven. Hmm.. I wonder why John didn't introduce Trish to Dario?). Anyhow, the dildo Tom works in her ass is long, thin and ridged. She never gets fucked in the ass by the guys but makes up for it with a hot ride atop Tom. She eventually jerks him off (most of it dodging her face) then John steps in, taking over where Tom left off. Talia sucks and jerks him, while he plays with her nipple. Overall, Talia looks like the kind of girl who loves to have fun but at the same time looks as if she takes great pride in herself, as if her looks come first. She's still quite nice to see 'in action', though. :-) So it's back to the gym with Lisa working out. Al comes up to her and grabs her ass, telling John to get a good close-up. Al tells Lisa to work her ass and that stopping her exercise routines would make it fat. Lisa gets annoyed with him and even wants John to get his camera away from her. Darla enters and gets Lisa to work out with her (the next few minutes display these girls' limber moves - in a non-sexual way. They work out slowly and sensually - not only for the benefit of maintaining a well-toned body but also for the benefit of our viewing pleasure :-). Later, after Darla leaves, John asks Lisa to dance for him and she does. It's quite erotic, but short because Ricky shows up and the two of them start getting it on. Well, they're only kissing and rubbing their bodies up against eachother (a lot of Patricia's lipstick rubs off onto T.T.'s mouth making him look like a clown). She begins rubbing his dick through his shorts then Al steps into the room. He's a little angry, yelling at John to turn the camera off but Lisa says she wants the camera on. Sensing how sexually starved Lisa is, Al tells John to go ahead and keep filming. As soon as Ricky starts licking Lisa's pussy from behind, Al goes up to her face for a kiss. - Randy kisses Patricia then sucks on her breasts (I've always found her boobjob nice-looking). A minute later, Randy asks her if she's ever been fucked by two guys. "Only if you get real hard" is her reply, with a laugh. "I'll leave that for Ricky" he grins at her. So the three of them head over to another part of the gym, where they can sit on some equipment. At first only one guy sits on a bench to get sucked while the other stands behind Patricia and penetrates her hot box. Patricia is more vocal when Randy's fucking her (probably because he's more into it than T.T.). Then Patricia sits with her legs up wrapped around two handlebars (I have no idea what type of equipment it is) so her butt's hanging low and the guys take turns plowing into her while she sucks the other off. Finally, she lays back on a bench as the guys do her missionary style. Randy's the first to cum, all over her stomach, then T.T. fucks her for a bit and cums mildly on her stomach as well. Patricia's attitude definitely has changed over the years (here she is pre-tongue pierce and in her pre-anal and pre-dp stage), but her playful spirit still shows - and I've always found her to be a good performer worth looking at in most of her scenes. Hours later. Laura shows up at John's, excited about how his second meeting with Dario went. John regretfully informs her that Dario didn't like the tape and she frowns, putting herself down. John tells her not to think low of herself then leads her to a mirror where she can see for herself just how beautiful she really is. She touches herself and slowly undresses. - This segment is quite short. Zara's innocent look plays off here very erotically. After looking at herself in the mirror and undressing, she lays down on her stomach as she works a finger in her ass while rubbing her clit (I find anal penetration something that seems a little taboo for Zara's soft appeal and wholesome image). She fingers herself to orgasm and writhes. As she closes her eyes and catches her breath, she smiles and you can tell that she really got off on that. Zara is definitely the kind of porn star who truly gets into her work and shows us a demure side that never gives off an impression of being a bimbo. She also isn't the fake, loud screamer type. She seems extremely level-headed and is most definitely all-natural (unfortunately, she's all-but-retired now). While she catches her breath, John asks her out to dinner. She smiles and tells him he's sweet but first she wants him to show this, most recent, footage of her to Dario. "I really feel good about it", she says. "You made me look better than ever. Please bring it to Dario first". He says he'll bring it down to him as soon as he can. Off to Dario's we go! At first, Dario is upset that it's footage of Laura again but once he sees her masturbate, he becomes interested. Even more so when she sticks a finger in her ass. "Oh yes, I like that!" he says. Then after completely viewing the tape, Dario says "I don't think now she's acting anymore. Ok John, you win. When can I meet this girl now?". I don't know if we're at John's or Laura's house, but a fire is burning in the fireplace and Laura's playing a lovely piece on the piano. Dario enters and sits next to her on the bench. She turns to him and says she feels like a fool having tried so many times to impress him with videos but he tells her that's he's the one who should feel like a fool. "You are so beautiful", he tells her. "Why I shouldn't have want to see you?" (hey, he's Italian - just pardon his grammatical errors :-). Then they kiss. - After a brief kiss, Rocco licks her breasts and rubs her pussy quite delicately proving he has mastered the art of sensual erotica (however, seeing his attitude as of late.. I'm thinking more along the lines of 'that was then, this is now' :-). Then Zara pulls down his pants and gives him head. Cut suddenly to Zara bending over as Rocco tastes her pussy. They do a stand-up doggie then spoon which are both very well captured. Next, Zara's on her stomach with her butt propped up as Rocco anally inserts his finger, getting her ready. But first, she goes back to giving him head (with Zara briefly tonguing Rocco's asshole). Rocco performs anal on her in the spoon position. He works it in very slowly (Zara even looks as if in pain at first) but he picks up the pace and she appears to take him with ease. The scene is a little dim but still very well captured with what little light there is. After a brief doggie (sans-anal), Rocco pulls out and cums on her face and chest. They kiss and embrace afterwards. All I have to say is that this should've been longer (what, with being the most anticipated scene and all). This video is classic to Buttman's style. I don't find that his more recent offerings project this same manner, though. The girls here are all fresh- faced and were all relative newcomers at the time. It isn't the sex that makes this movie a winner (because it isn't scorching all the way through). It's the tease factor. John makes sure he gets a good close-up of each of the starlet's posteriors and lets us know why he loves asses so much (more importantly, why they call him the Buttman). The scenarios are either filled with passion or kink or (in the few cases) just plain hot sex - proving Buttman's movies have something for everyone. The production values are top notch with just the right blend of music that helps carry the whole air about it gracefully and perfectly. Though following a script, the cast pulled it off very spontaneously with a real, unrehearsed feel to it (for the most part). The women are sly and devilish, with just the right charm to captivate and lure you into the world that is Buttman. Oh, what a world it is! :-) Joey Markham
