Let's take a serious look at 'The Goddess Tapes'. People say it was a myth, but traces suggest it was real. I've cross-referenced late 90s niche VHS distributors and found a pattern. The covers typically featured Greco-Roman statues with a risqué modern twist. From the distribution lens, these tapes exchanged hands mostly in Europe, particularly Germany and the Netherlands. The aesthetic was likely inspired by Tinto Brass's work, judging by the camerawork nuances in the few surviving stills. If you own any materials, or know someone who might, let's collaborate on preserving this slice of NSFW history.

Always interesting to see someone else chasing ghosts. I've come across 'The Goddess Tapes' name in some obscure corners of the web—forums, collector groups, even an old GeoCities page at one point. But every time I followed a lead, it just vanished. Finding real evidence beyond the stills is gonna be an uphill battle, but I'm down to put in some legwork. Let's coordinate!

The camerawork nuances you mentioned are a REALLY specific thing to catch. You're saying you've noticed the same kinda voyeuristic, playful style Tinto was known for? That's actually huge, could narrow things down a ton. Not a lot of distributors had the guts, or the artistry, to mimic Brass effectively in the 90s.

aye i've peeped similar stuff during my dives in amsterdam’s back-alley shops, the type of places that sell bootlegs and obscure prints. Never seen 'The Goddess Tapes' but I got a buddy over in the NL who's a fiend for this kinda thing, so I’ll hit him up. Will update if I get anything juicy.

Heard some chatter about this on an old film forum, but they made it sound like a wild goose chase. If there are legit stills floating around though, I'm game for a deep dive. Maybe we can track down some retired distributors or rental store owners?

This is fascinating stuff! These tapes are like unicorns for NSFW media historians. So, if the 'The Goddess Tapes' followed the pattern of featuring Greco-Roman statues with a modern twist, these might've circulated among private collectors, keeping them under the radar. The Brass inspiration is a solid lead; his fingerprint is all over that era's scene. Maybe we should be looking for distributors who admired or worked with Tinto? Anything from small-time Italian publishers to Dutch underground networks could be key here. Anyone with connections in the European art cinema circles? Let's keep pooling resources!

The Goddess Tapes sound so familiar, swear I've seen the cover at a flea market in Berlin years ago but didn't pick it up, rookie mistake...
I've been hunting for old Euro cult erotica like this for years, part of the thrill is in the elusive nature of these finds. I'll dig through my boxes, maybe there's a lead or a catalog that I've overlooked. The Tinto Brass aesthetic is super distinctive, the stills would be a dead giveaway.
