Perhaps during a more innocent time in adult cinema, the concept of the pizza delivery guy working his way through oversexed customers was the standard vision set when imagining the cartoonish banality of the industry. 1978’s “Hot & Saucy Pizza Girls” aims to play with the cliché, following a bare-bones plot that follows a group of young women as they make their delivery rounds, jumping into customer beds with enthusiasm. Writer John T. Chapman has some rather strange ideas to help pad the picture between sexual antics, but director Bob Chinn keeps the movie largely carefree and simplistic, making sure to pay close attention to the fantasy of ease and access when it comes to the experiences of these special pizzeria employees.
The AVC encode image (1.85:1 aspect ratio) presentation captures rich colors for the "Hot & Saucy Pizza Girls" world, which is loaded with deep reds on restaurant decorations and toppings, along with logo t-shirts and skateboard paint jobs. City adventures also bring out varied hues and bright greenery. Skintones are natural, retaining a distinct pinkness to full body exposure. Detail reaches as far as the original cinematography allows, with a softer but pleasing examination of room decoration and skin particulars, though close-ups are periodically out of focus. Delineation isn't troublesome. Source isn't in terrific shape, with a few jumpy frames, speckling, scratches, and rough reel changes. However, nothing's distracting, possibly adding to the viewing experience.
Age is more apparent during the 2.0 DTS-HD MA sound mix, which offers a slightly muddier listening event. Dialogue exchanges are thickened, a tad fuzzy at times, but complete unintelligibility isn't a concern, partially due to emphatic performances. Soundtrack selections and scoring aren't crisp, but the soft rock mood is set, backing the action without overwhelming it.
There is no supplementary material on this disc.
"Hot & Saucy Pizza Girls" digs more into Ann's crisis of fidelity when she finds the softer side of Blackie, but that's generally it for plot. Chinn wisely trusts in the appeal of random encounters and playful exaggeration, while the film itself is an amusing time capsule of the era and adult cinema's reputation to the outside world.
