(Original text by Christopher Rage circa 1982) Christopher Rage has done it again with one of the most exciting video tapes available for home viewing. BEST OF THE SUPERSTARS is a compilation of the first three video tapes that Rage released, containing the most exciting footage of some of the most exciting men working in erotic films today.

CASEY DONOVAN (Star of BOYS IN THE SAND, BIJOU, HEATSTROKE) and SCORPIO (Star of SLEAZE, BOOTS AND SADDLES, JUST BLONDS) join together for a steamy sequence that will have everyone creaming. Not much needs to be written about Casey... it's all be said before. He's as hot, good-looking and horny as ever. What gets Casey going is another blond bombshell, SCORPIO. The two of them team up for one of the hottest scenes ever recorded, practically steaming up the camera with their antics. These two gorgeous blonds are all over each other fucking and sucking their way through three orgasms that will leave you gasping. And that's just the beginning.

Also featured in other sequences are GEORGE PAYNE (who created such a stir in his first feature THE BACK ROW, and who has been doing mostly straight films recently, makes a rare appearance with Chris Rage in a segment that's sure to please all those viewers who love PAYNE) and LEE MARLIN (JUST BLONDS). The sensuous and surrealistic encounter stars PAYNE and MARLIN as two thugs who get more than they bargained for from JOHN 'SLAVE' WILSON.

RICHARD LOCKE (appears in his first New York location feature as THE JOCK who gets so worked up he has to strip and jerk off), SCOTT TAYLOR (BOYS OF VENICE) and several newcomers, including the amazing EDDIE with one of the biggest cocks in the business. And talk about discoveries... Not since Columbus stumbled onto the New World has there been such a exciting find as EDDIE. Some of you may remember his appearances at G.G. Barnum's, where he flew through the air with the greatest of ease. Well now he's down to earth and just as hung and beatiful as ever. Definitely a turn on.

Captured as they have never been captured before, the stars of the film sweat and pound their ways through the most explicit of exciting scenes. Together with Rage's special way of looking at men and sex, these elements combine to make BEST OF THE SUPERSTARS an erotic classic.

The rematered DVD includes the full-length original scenes of Scorpio and Casey Donovan in Superstars and George Payne, Lee Marlin and Slave in Superstars II. The two Superstars, along with Solojerk (which contributed scenes included in Best of the Superstars) were the first three films Rage made independently, having worked with Arch Brown as early as 1971. While the video quality has degraded over the years (storage of video tape masters under less than ideal conditions, as well as early videotape technology used to capture the original footage contributed to the overall poor resolution and grainy footage), the scenes still stand up as good examples of classic gay porn.

The energy between Scorpio and Donovan is palpable, and results in multiple cumshots from each man. The premise behind the Payne/Marlin/Slave seen is one found in every gay man's fantasies, one of domination and being dominated. The edited versions, as presented in Best of the Superstars, somewhat lose the original vision, preserved here despite grainy, frame-losses, distortions and color seep. This is gay porn sui generis.
