Sloppy self-referential loop carrier

A very poor effort by director Drea (aided and abetted by William Margold with the silly billing of "Mr. Drea"), FANTASY FOLLIES purports to show us our favorite porn stars in their off-hours, discussing their exploits as an excuse to introduce dumb XXX vignettes. Don't take Sominex or have a turkey dinner before watching.

Becky Savage gets things rolling by masturbating in the bathtub in a dry-ice framed fantasy intro. Then Kay Parker and Eric Edwards play themselves at a mock-romantic dinner, expressing their "true" cynical thoughts in voice-over (to contradict what they say live). Kay recalls an incident from her last movie, featuring a limp-dicked Margold in flashback. Eric remembers his time filming 1-day wonders, and we see a set filled with various size dildos, with Ron Jeremy hamming it up in his emcee persona, emphasizing dirty jokes and poor taste, such as "Summertime" playing when he demonstrates a brown-colored dildo in a segment titled Dildoland.

A busty starlet demonstrates the toys on herself in a segment called Nymphomania. Tiffany Clark and Herschel Savage play themselves, recalling a messy orgy. Serena and Margold again kill time with some gags, and then Eric & Kay sit by the fireplace as she introduces another reminiscence of strip poker in reverse (you put on clothes when you lose) and an orgy on a film set from her past. After another Eric memory and more Savage/Tiff action, Kay & Eric hump in present time.

Film's punch line is an old vaudeville routine (I've seen in many porn films before): after Eric's cum shot the men in the white coats arrive to take Eric & Kay away - they aren't the real thing after all, just nut-cases who imagine they are the porn stars. Typical of his cynical attitude and warped sense of humor Margold tries to get the video's last laugh by applying his cum to cookies as icing. The hambone cackles gleefully, but as usual the audience can only groan.

IMDb reveals that a sequel was made with the same cast, presumably at the same time just to amortize the investment - recall the need to fill shelf space and the "New Arrivals" section for video stores was a big deal in the pre-internet, pre-streaming era.
