Playboy Video Playmate Calendar 1995

When DVD hit it's stride, Playboy did something nice and released many of their yearly Playmate calendars to digital video for the first time. I'm grateful, but the further back you go the more and more the nudity isn't the focus and things become a little bit too "artsy". A notion I've talked about before and which '1995' edition suffers from.

"January" is Becky DeloSantos - Apr 1994 - in a warehouse strip with bright lights, a lot of quick shots and not all of Becky. Now mostly in bed naked though also shots of her in a matching white pants and an open shirt combo (4 mins). "February" is Arlene Baxter - Dec 1993 - in your standard bed strip that has many good closeups. Then it's a strip from a black cocktail dress at night which moves rather slowly and doesn't deliver much (4 mins). "March" is Julianna Young - Nov 1993 - who's sure to standout if you like ladies of the very busty variety. First its a staged photoshoot. Then posing in the desert ditches any sort of a story and goes for straight up goodness where it counts - her body (4 mins).

"April" is German Elke Jeinsen - May 1993 - apologizing for her English, but it isn't bad. She gets down to posing nude in a field next to a horse when there isn't shots of her riding it clothed. Then a straight-up strip from black lingerie indoors with too little nudity (3.5 mins). "May" is Anna-Marie Goddard - Jan 1994 - another foreign beauty who highlights her roots in a bit that breaks out traditional Netherlands clothes and subtitles. Getting down to the business on the same white backdrop set, she models a few pieces of regular clothing and is shown nude briefly. Her pictorial is burned in my brain from the early days of the 'net, but I've yet to see video stuff of her that's been super hot. A second scene of paddling on the bayou and getting down to naked in a cabin isn't get much better (4.5 mins). "June" is Jenny McCarthy - PMotY 1994 - who's popularity is reflected in a slightly longer runtime. All this footage from her PMotY vid. Quick pieces of her naked - in & out of a summer dress, suspenders and hat, cuffs doesn't match the collar - remain pleasant however (6 mins).

"July" is Neriah Davis - Mar 1994 - sees the sultry blonde in a country setting to go with her background. Some really nice shots of Neriah, but I wish they'd come more heavily sans clothes. The follow-up about the sky & stars has a lovely closeup panning shot starting at her legs all the way up to her face naked, but it's one of the few redeeming parts (4 mins). "August" is Jennifer Lavoie - Aug 1993 - who gets down to some high flying gymnastics matching her real life. Nice sights, but nothing sizzling. Now she hits a beach and is naked in a hammock or topless posed up against a coconut tree. More visually pleasing and a shot of her tanned butt worth mentioning (4 mins). "September" is Elan Carter - Jun 1994 - getting out of a skintight dress or prancing around naked. The nudity is almost nonstop, but the follow-up can't say the same. By the time she hits a bedroom you get a few decent shots, but that's it (4 mins).

"October" is Shae Marks - May 1994 - one of my favs still natural here before she got her boobs pumped up. A montage of outdoor footage is pleasant, she looks great and the nudity comes at a good clip. Inside a mansion she gets down to naked from a dress, but it's not on the same level (4.5 mins). "November" is Julie Lynn Cialini - PMotY 1995 - naked in a wheat field on a set that does a good job of looking real. Then it's the requisite strip indoors (5 mins). "December" is Carrie Westcott - Sept 1993 - another Playmate in her original form before a boobjob and possibly more cosmetic surgery. Opera music plays as she gets naked on a pier. Nice shots of Carrie include a few good closeups of her lovely face or laying out on the boardwalk. A second piece naked on a bed has an overhead shot of her straddling a yellow pillow has to be mentioned, but it doesn't reach it's full potential (4 mins).

Favorite ladies or a flashback in time, '1995' has some choice pieces for sure. Seeing a few Playmates in their early form was easily the highlight of video for me. Maybe you'll feel the same way too. Otherwise there's no getting past short scenes or a lack of arousal at times. It's certainly not the worst Calendar I've seen from Playboy, but not the strongest.

One thing I noticed about one of the best playboy calendars is that Jenny McCarthy is not the most attractive of all these beautiful ladies. That honor could go to Becky Delos Santos, Shae Marks, Neriah Davis, Jennifer Lavoie, or Julie Cialini. Even Elke Jensen, Arlene Baxter, Carrie Westcott, Elan Carter, the well stacked Julianne Young, or Jennifer Lavoie. Becky has the average woman thing going for her that is irresistable. Elke's might bother one a little bit too much what with the horse and all. Anne Marie, Julie, Jen Lavoie, and Shae have beautiful smiles and everything nice. Neriah Davis is seductive. McCarthy only got the playmate of the year honors because of her MTV show Singled Out. Overall, I recommend this tape. It will bring a smile to your face. :)

I want to play the song that Jenny McCarthy dances to on this video at my friend's wedding reception. It would be a laugh because there are about 8 guys who will get the joke when the song plays because about 12 years ago we watched it nonstop one high school spring break. The song goes, "Pleasures of the heart, pleasures of the heart, oh you make my dreams so real, all I feel..." It would be a hilarious inside joke if I could play it. I'll give $50 to the first person who produces it. I know that it is quite a hit or miss but figure it is worth a try. It would be extremely funny and if anyone has any information about this I would be grateful.
