The Slave Island Compilation disc (a.k.a. Attackers ATAD-046) is a weighty collection of eight hours' worth of highlights from Attackers' first six Slave Island movies, arranged in an easy-to-follow chronological order that includes opening and closing credits for each film, and introductory scenes with voiceover narrative (in Japanese, remember) that attempt to keep the stories strung together.

As compilation discs go, this one's pretty good. Certainly, it doesn't meet the excellence of some of the individual Slave Island titles. But the price of the film and the quantity of material here is definitely a bargain, and this compilation presents a good opportunity to see scenes from early Slave Island titles you may otherwise have missed.

A bit of background: from what I can tell, the producers released this compilation on two discs, each four hours long, and the people who brought this compilation overseas then compressed both movies into one eight-hour disc. This has both its pluses and its minuses, as Sloth might say.

The good news is it provides a voluminous selection of much-loved Slave Island activities: rapes, forced blowjobs, whippings, slaps to the face, women pissing and pooping into bowls while their captives watch, women eating out of dog bowls, forced lesbianism, etc. The bad news is you can't compress eight hours' worth of material onto one disc without losing some quality, and while the look of this disc is generally OK, it definitely falls below the high quality of the individual films (Note: I bought my copy of this disc in Canada, but I'm guessing the same is true for copies sold in the U.S.).

For those new to Slave Island, the stories here are about attractive young women who are kidnapped and taken to a mysterious island, where the women are stripped naked, jailed, and then tortured and trained to become sex slaves. The focus of these movies is degradation -- the jailors break the spirits of the women through whippings and humiliations, including making the nude women wear dog collars and leashes and submit to being walked on all fours like dogs. Pretty much every woman gets raped at some point, usually more than once, and the women are continually forced to blow their male captors. Most of the women who appear in these scenes are attractive, and some are real knockouts, such as Attackers regular Kana Mochizuki from Slave Island 4, Yuka Haneda and Nana Nanami from Slave Island 5, and Yuki Tsukamoto from Slave Island 6.

Even at eight hours, the producers couldn't fit in everything from the individual movies (most titles were more than two hours long), so what you get for each film is a story set-up, followed by select scenes from that film. Based on the titles I had already seen (Slave Islands 1, 5 and 6), I would say most of the good stuff is here, although the wonderful forced-lesbian-kissing scenes from Slave Island 5 and Slave Island 6 have been cut. Also missing, sadly, is the great Slave Island 5 scene where Nana Nanami is forced to ride a floor-mounted dildo to orgasm, and then must lick her cum off the floor. But I guess you can't have everything. Many strong scenes have made it into the compilation, including a nice scene from Slave Island 2 where cute little Minami Aoyama is anally assaulted, and a great scene from Slave Island 5 where an older male villain gets blown by Yuka Haneda while, at the same time, Nana Nanami licks the villain's bung hole.

It's probably worth noting the Slave Island movies tend to tell the same story over and over, so the compilation disc can seem a bit repetitive at times. On the other hand, the Slave Island movies did improve in many respects as the series progressed, and new forms of degradation were added along the way, so each film in this compilation presents its own delights.

My grade: B+
