roster of golden age adult filmmakers, Anthony Spinelli has always stood out thanks to his impeccable stylist's eye and ability to 
film women like no one else. Though he started working in the industry in the early '70s, it wasn't until the end of the decade that he really hit his stride with an impeccable run of classics starting with Easy in 1978 and into the mid-'80s. His most successful and enduring work will probably always be Talk Dirty to Me and its sequel, Nothing to Hide, but a strong contender for his greatest work is SexWorld. Plenty of porn films adopted sci-fi trappings in the wake of the success of Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, but this one beat them to the punch and did it better by offering an erotic spin on the 1973 smash Westworld (and by association its sequel, Futureworld). 
In perhaps the most surprising meta moment, there's even a secretary (Thorpe) whose dream comes true when Behind the Green Door's Johnnie Keyes turns up near the end as his most famous character. 
today for obvious reasons, but in an age when the actors were more than capable of handling difficult, intricate roles like this that required them to stay in character through some pretty outrageous scenarios, the gambit could pay off spectacularly when it worked. The film is always visually interesting, with the facility and the fantasy backdrops providing a wide variety of delights for the eye. All of the actors seem to realize they're in a project that could go toe to toe with its mainstream counterparts, and particularly Parker (in her debut) shows why she would quickly become one of the most in-demand and famous stars of the era. 
often astounding and puts many Hollywood HD transfers of '70s titles to shame. 
16-minute interview in which the very friendly actress talks about getting her start here at Spinelli's urging (referring to him as his credited name of Sam Weston) and talks about how her persona and fan base were shaped as the market was evolving. It's an unusually thoughtful chat as she goes into the way her own experiences and relationships were utilized for her character, not to mention her own personal discomfort with talking dirty. She also spills about most of her co-stars in the film, including some fun trivia casual fans might not know already. Silvera, one of the busiest actors of the '80s, has a much shorter (6 mins.) and more disjointed piece talking about meeting Spinelli and how he had to cope with the unusual demands of the part, while still photographer Joel Sussman has a brief, 4-minute overview of how he got into the business as a hippie snapping photos on softcore sets and parlayed it into more socially acceptable pursuits. The third disc is a soundtrack CD (a nice touch following the similar gesture on Good Luck, Miss Wyckoff); though none of the tracks are identified, the catchy library theme song by Berry Lipman kicks things off on an appropriately disco-tastic note. Incredibly, Vinegar Syndrome later revisited the title as its inaugural 4K UHD adult title as a combo pack with a Blu-ray and a CD soundtrack, featuring a even better 4K scan from the camera negative that will truly sizzle your eyeballs.
