Yes, you can count on the phantom to deliver.  He has seen this film
and recommend it to those who have enjoyed previous Blake films like
Night Trips I and II, House of Dreams, and Secrets.   Like all
Blake films, "Hidden Obsessions" looks good and has a sensuous feel
to it.  There are a lot of slow motions pans, innovative camera work,
and a nice jazzy soundtrack.  Blake also has the talent of making
his actresses look really beautiful.  You may hardly recognize some of the
actresses that have appeared in other films after they have been glamorized
by Blake.    Blake films resemble the soft-core Playboy and Penthouse
videos in style.  Those viewers looking
for really hard, nasty sex will probably want to look elsewhere.

Like all Blake films, this movie revolves around the fantasies/memories
of a single woman.  In between scenes of these fantasies, we are treated
to images of this woman masturbating.  In this case, the woman in
question is played by Penthouse Pet, Janine Lindemulder.  Janine is
an incredibly beautiful woman -- tall and slim with long blonde hair, 
a golden tan, silicon enhanced tits, and a lovely face.  She is without
question one of the most beautiful women to ever appear in Penthouse
and that's saying a lot.  She's appeared in many
Penthouse pictorials, as well as Penthouse videos such as "Passport to
Paradise", "Satin and Lace", and "Ready to Ride".

Janine plays a writer who has been commissioned by a mysterious man to
write a series of erotic fantasies.  Janine is obviously quite prolific
because we are treated to 16 fantasy sequences in the 90
minute course of the movie.  So we get a lot of variety, although in
some cases, it would be nice if the scenes  could go on for a little longer.

Scene 1: "Afternoon Lovers"

Heather Hart, looking more glamorous than ever before, plays a businesswoman
who meets Steve Drake for an afternoon tryst.

Scene 2: " Ice Dildo"

Janine and Julia Ann (a beautiful busty blonde) play with a clear dildo.
As they thrust this dildo in and out of various orifices, it begins to
melt away, and it becomes apparent that the dildo is made of ice!  As the
scene ends, we see water dripping from the fast fading dildo onto the
delicious tongue of Janine.  Intercut with this scene, we watch Janine
masturbate by the pool as she fantasizes.

Scene 3: "Diamonds and Pearls"

Randy West and Francesca Le play sexual games with each other.  Among the
acts they perform, Randy pulls a diamond necklace slowly out of Francesca's
pussy, and Randy shaves Francesca's pussy while she is blindfolded. 
Reminiscient of some of the scenes in "9 1/2 Weeks".

Scene 4: "Underwater"

A dreamy sequence filmed completely underwater with two young ladies,
P.J. Sparx and Kim Wilde.

Scene 5: "Skintight"

We see Heather Hart in an incredibly tight leather dress and thigh-high
boots.   She takes off the dress and gets it on with Mark Wallice.
They are later joined by P. J. Sparx who first fucks Mark, then fucks
Heather with a huge black dildo.

Scene 6: "Dreamgirls"

Janine and Julia Ann watch as Sunset Thomas fucks Mark Wallice in a
dance studio.

Scene 7: "Jealousy"

Skye Blue and Tracy West start out fighting over a man, but then start
making love.

Scene 8: "Diamond Rain"

Blake uses an interesting photographic technique in which cascading water drops
look like huge diamonds.  Celeste and Woody Long make love in the rain.

Scene 9: "Fifties Fetish"

Some mild S&M here with Janine and Paula Price spanking each other.

Scene 10: "Sailing"

We get to watch for the 10,000th time the husband and wife team of
Jon Dough and Diedre Holland fuck each other.  This time they're on
a sailboat on the open sea.

Scene 11: "Thirties Fantasy"

Melanie Moore and Randy West fuck each other while dressed in 30's
period clothes.

Scene 12: "Bodyscapes"

An exploration of the lush body of Jamie Dion.

Scene 13: "The Orgy"

We see Janine, Heather Hart, P. J. Sparx, Francesca Le, Sheila Stone,
Jon Dough, and Nick East engaged in an orgy on a bed.  The scene is
shot from overhead so we see a big tangle of bodies.  Unfortunately,
each guy only fucks one woman.  Jon fucks Heather while Nick fucks
Francesca.

Scene 14: "Jet Set"

Peter North is the pilot of a private jet on which the only passenger is
lovely Marissa Malibu.

Scene 15: "Espionage"

Filmed in black and white, Dominique Simone plays a spy who gets caught
in the act by Marc Wallice.

Scene 16: "Manipulator"

Janine and Kim Wilde lick pussy while an old rich man watches in
luxurious surroundings.

As the closing credits roll by, we watch Janine in a 3 way lesbian scene
with Heather Hart and Lauryl Canyon.

The biggest disappointment of the movie for me is that
while we see a lot of Janine's delicious face and body, 
she never screws a guy. 

Oh well, hope this helps.  Obviously, it'll mean a lot more to
those who can match faces with names.
