Summary: Vintage clips are great - the rest is, well....
Review: ...the rest is really just Paul and Gene mugging into the camera. This is truly the era of KISS where Paul and Gene felt that the make-up days were the past and the present was where it was at. Fast forward to 1995.....the make-up was where the $$$ was.If you want a pretty good compilation of KISS videos then this is a good buy. That's about it. The "interviews" with Gene and Paul are arrogant and insincere. They both take verbal shots at Ace and Peter for no good reason. This DVD is just average. When will they just start putting full concerts on CD/DVD?

Summary: Legendary!!!
Review: All you KISS Maniacs out there. Wasn't that the first real KISS full length home video after the 1984 Live Uncensored one? Remember way back in 1987 when we all bought it. These were the glammy, glittery 80's and it's all in EXPOSED. The legendary 70's and the 80's. IT'S KISS!!!

Summary: Visual feast for the eyes
Review: Anyone who was dumb enough to take this video seriously when it was first released back in 87 are probably the same [people] who take Marilyn Manson and Slipknot seriously. This was a satire of all the rock cliches that the bands at the time tried to push as being so vital to their image. Kiss Exposed was nothing more and still is a visual feast for the eyes. From everything to the outrageous videos to naked babes to the 70's concert footage, this video was enjoyable as a good-natured goof. It showed that Kiss did not take themselves or the over the top lifestyle seriosly. They presented this with a sense of humor and even admitted in magazine interviews that this was no Spinal Tap. Gene even blows it trying to tell a joke at one point! My only regret is that there wasn't more of Eric and Bruce. As for their videos, I'll be one of the few to admit that I enjoyed the glam metal era much more than I enjoyed grunge (to depressing) or the nu metal movement.(no singing,no rhythm, no sense of humor).It was nice seeing rock stars be rock stars instead of acting like they're in PSA's.(public service announcements)Does Bono ring a bell? How about Sting or REM? They may feel like they have something important to say but have no real appeal for me. I don't even want to discuss the current batch of sullen rock bands. This is good escapist fun. And the best part is that even though the content on Kiss Exposed is contrived, it wouldn't be hard to imagine them actually living this way.Or myself for that matter. (Don't I wish)! They probably do anyway. So get off your pedestal and rock and roll all night and party every day!

Summary: KISS Exposed a MUST have
Review: As a KISS fan, I highly recommend this. I would say that most KISS fans have seen this and know what I am talking about. Great interviews and videos, especially the Paul Stanley workout..too funny. For those who have not seen it..get it, you will not be dissatisfied.

Summary: Excellent video
Review: Asylum is an excellent collection. Kiss just keeps getting better as time goes by, and this collection shows their great 1980's songs. The 1970's concert footage is awsome too. Although the interview with Kiss is "staged", they tell you the facts about the band and the way they feel about it. Paul and Gene's comical interludes are cool. I think the video could use a bit more of Eric and Bruce, but all in all, definately worth having.

Summary: KISS "Exposed" On DVD!
Review: Finally, one of KISS' 1st commercially home video is on DVD. I bought "KISS Exposed" on VHS when it 1st came out, back in 1987. Now that it's on DVD, WOO HOO! Much clearer picture & CD quality sound! See Paul Stanley & Gene Simmons talk about when they 1st started out singing Beatles songs on the street corners in New York. See Paul & Gene go thru a room full of old KISS merchandise including, the piano used on "Beth" & "Christine Sixteen". See Gene in his room "playing Santa Claus" with a bunch of women. Bruce Kulick & Eric Carr also make appearences. There's a whole bunch of women in this video, including "Adult Stars" & "Adult Magazine" models. Like the VHS version, there is brief nudity in this DVD too. There are 7 Music Videos & 8 Live Videos in this DVD. They are...1. Who Wants To Be Lonely (Video '86) 2. Uh! All Night (Video '86) 3. I Love It Loud (Live in Rio De Janeiro '83) 4. Deuce (Live in San Francisco '75) 5. Strutter (Live in Detroit '76) 6. Beth (Live in Houston '77) 7. Detroit Rock City (Live in Australia '80) 8. Tears Are Falling (Video '85) 9. Lick It Up (Video '83) 10. All Hell's Breaking Loose (Video '84) 11. I Love It Loud (Video '82) 12. I Stole Your Love (Live in Houston '77) 13. Heaven's On Fire (Video '84) 14. Ladies Room (Live in Houston '77) 15. Rock And Roll All Nite (Live in Australia '80). I do have ALL of KISS' DVDs that has been released so far, and I do have ALL of their VHS videos (including the hard to get "KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park" & "KISS Animalize Live Uncensored"). Me being a HUGE KISS FAN since '78, I'd say, if you're a TRUE KISS FAN from the past or present & you don't have this on VHS then, you should get this DVD! I can't wait until the other commercially released KISS home videos are released on DVD! -:)

Summary: Informative, entertaining and often hilarious look at KISS
Review: First saw this gem of a home video when first released on VHS in 1987, it is great to finally own it on DVD.
This is basically KISS' attempt at Spinal Tap humour while presenting the best of their MTV popular videos and vintage concert performances.
It should be noted that it is obvious that KISS did this rockumentary with tongue planted firmly in cheeks and those easily offended and without a sense of humour should abstain from watching. This is a fun, often raunchy look at one of rock n roll's all time great bands with plenty of scantily clad bimbos along for the ride.
Many of Stanley and Simmons' anecdotes about the early days of the band are truly fascinating, and the love the two share for their band comes shinning through. One minor complaint is the lack of screen time devoted to the late great Eric Carr and Bruce Kulick. Eric Carr in particular had been in the band seven years by the time this was released and should have been featured more in the interviews.
The videos are some of the most colorful and imaginative of the MTV generation. Videos like Tears are Falling and Heaven's on Fire are nothing short of classic. An uncut version of the great Who Wants To Be Lonely clip is fantastic too. Though it would have been nice to include the strangely absent and little seen videos for Shandi, World Without Heroes and Thrills In The Night.
The most compelling reason to buy this DVD is the vintage footage that does not disappoint-wonderful in both audio and video quality. From the black and white Deuce from San Francisco 1975 to the mighty Strutter from Detroit 1976, the band's original line up is showcased in all its glory. Other highpoints are a fabulous rendition of the anthem Detroit Rock City from Sydney, Australia 1980 and the thunderous I Stole Your Love from Houston, TX 1977. Most impressive though is the live footage of I Love It Loud from Rio, Brazil 1983, this was the last tour in make-up until the reunion in 1996 and a fitting close to the first chapter in KISSTORY as the attendance at this show numbered in the hundred thousands.
All in all, an irresistible package that should be considered required viewing for rock fans everywhere.!!
