Summary: Betty Page: Bondage Queen (1998) d: Klaw, Irving
Review: "...Cult Epics presents on DVD the complete volumes of the bondage, fetish and cat-fight films featuring Betty Page and other glamour girls." Betty Page first became popular in the 1950's when magazine store owner Irving Klaw began selling photos of pin-up girls for 5 cents each. Before long, certain patrons began requesting cheesecake and bondage photos. It was then that Irving Klaw started his studio, using models like Bettie Page, and burlesque dancers like Baby Lake, Tempest Storm, Blaze Starr, and of course Lili St. Cyr. After being accused of being a pornographer by the government, Klaw burned over 80% of his collection. "...Betty Page, famous for her pin up modeling appeared in these bondage short films. These unique classics are the first film sources of today's fetish and SM scene and appear nowadays surreal, tender and joyful." Excellent source of images for any serious collector of Betty Page or historical erotica.

Summary: Bettie Page Bondage Queen DVD Rocks!!
Review: Cult Epics has digitally cleaned up theKlaw loops far beyond a Bettie fan's expectaions!
Deep-isx your tapes; this company out of LA has got two awesome Bettie DVDs going and this isthe #1 best anywhere!
Picture quality is excellent; there is a letter lead-in from Bettie, stills, and a load of fun. so clean that you'd almost think that they were shot that afternoon and "XF'ed" to look older.
As I've heard it, these came from Movie Star News' original 8mms and 16mms on Umatic tape and digitally cleaned up by Cult Epics.
A labor of love, to be sure and I hope that Cult Epics continues their TLC of obscure film projects by restoring other
"lost" film archives.
Amazon is offering the two DVDs at a good savings; a superb deal and as complete a collection you could want, until they unearth some more!...and man, I know Bettie....

Summary: Five stars for content, docked two stars for presentation.
Review: If you have the heavily-bootlegged videotapes "The Classic Films of Irving Klaw" volumes 1 and 2, then you already have this DVD. Anyway, the picture quality of this disc is bad, having been taken from a bootlegged video (I assume) that was cobbled together from beat-up prints of the classic mini-films of Irving Klaw. True, Betty appears in less than a third of the films presented on this disc... but the aesthetic that made her so appealing is present in the other segments. Another reviewer said that he was disappointed in the two-paragraph commentary by Page that is featured on the disc... Considering that Ms. Page had virtually slipped off the face of the Earth until a few years ago, it's simply wonderful to find out her perspective on any aspect of the phenomenon surrounding her. When I first bought this disc, my computer's speakers were broken and I still watched and enjoyed this disc... The films included on the DVD were meant to be silent and the inane voiceover and stupid, tinkling music are wholly unnecessary.

Summary: Betty Page:Bondage Queen DVD : Sort of a Disapointment.
Review: The new DVD :"Betty Page Bondage Queen" will be a desirable addition to any Bettie Page fan but I suppose that I was expecting the whole disk to be unpublished shots of the Queen of Curves as the title suggests. The several short movies presented are black and white films taken of some of Irving Klaw's models in their undies, being bound and gagged by Klaw's sister. Betty appears in a few and in many stills. The "exclusive commentary" by Bettie Page is a short written page or two, not the audio file I hoped for. I enjoyed the movies of the models in their bras and panties, dark nylons and ultra high heels as they tried to walk in them but a more truthful title for the DVD would have been "Irving Klaw's Bondage and Fetish models ,Featuring Bettie Page."
