Don Houston uncovered the gem of the week with A Sperm Load A
Day: Special Edition, saying that: Erik Everhard has long been one of the hardest of hardcore gonzo performers and his work behind the camera has routinely brought him a lot of attention for giving fans what they want too. Now that he is at Jules
Jordan Video, he can pretty much shoot anything currently available on the market rather than have to trim back his creative urge to merge as he had to do for his last distributor. While I'm not a big fan of creampies, especially anal creampies, I understand that a lot of you want the hardest material possible in order to stroke your meat to and this typically means going to JJ and his band of merry men; a group of directors that routinely provide more fuck for the buck than anyone else on the market. Today's review in this regard is Erik's A Sperm Load A
Day: Special Edition, a double disc entry into the "more is better"
sweepstakes with the selling point that the quality was as high as the quantity, making it a superior effort thanks to the wonderful cast and solid technical values. The premise was that the various women in the movie all liked to swallow semen and the scenes were a combination of blow bangs, gang bangs, and otherwise powerfully heated action. A Sperm Load A
Day: Special Edition was one of those titles that fans will considered a clear example of the X Critic Collector Series level of effort thanks to the 6+ hours of wild action, the awesome cast of beautiful and sexually skilled ladies, and the technical values that now included an anamorphic widescreen transfer. If you prefer features, couples sex, and artistic effects over the kind of raw, nasty, and totally outrageous gonzo sex provided here, by all means adjust the rating accordingly but there haven't been many multi-set DVD releases with as solid a combination of quantity and quality on this level since the advent of the format, making it a top notch title to pick up. In short, A Sperm Load A
Day: Special Edition offered everything a modern gonzo should offer up without any of the frills but still managing to show lots of heat building tease and scenarios that made me smile, if not laugh out loud.
Great work!
The word on the street is that director Cezar Capone over at Club
Jenna was surprised to find out how sales of his titles were much higher than expected, even knocking some of the company icons out of the water for weeks at a time. Well, if history is any indication of future outcome, expect the upcoming MILF School 2 to once again make waves as the venerable director brings in a fresh new crop of older, curvier gals to prove that the MILF phenomenon is not letting up any time soon. Our own Chris Thorne had a rant in the last Blue Room Column about the scores of titles trying to cash in on the craze but the bottom line is that the demand exists and Cezar has been on top of the charts as the guy fans trust to really deliver the goods. This time, the cast is led by voluptuous Devon Lee but Daisy, Jessika Bleu, and Angelica Lane all seemed to provide the heated dynamic that turns heads as they walk down the street. We'll give you a closer look at the full title when we get it in for inspection but you'll be happy to know that Cezar did not drop the ball on this sophomore effort and the ladies all played up their strengths over the petite newcomers that get boring after awhile so give this one a look if you want experience and comfort over youth and speed.
Background:
For several years now, I have gone on what amounts to a porn pilgrimage to the real Sin City, Las Vegas, each January. The event that draws me there is the Adult Entertainment Exposition (AEE); clearly the biggest collection of porn stars, production companies, and those involved in the industry you will find in North America (and arguably as good as any show elsewhere, including Berlin). Without going over old territory discussed in my 2006 AEE Show Report too heavily, the show is designed with a dual focus; to allow businesses to come together and make deals as well as allow fans to meet some of the objects of their desires in the flesh. The performers get the benefit of tremendous media exposure, including lots of mainstream media prowling around looking for a new angle, as well as the adoration of hordes of fans that literally support the industry by buying the movies, toys, and website memberships that keep the engine running.
Every year there are numerous accounts of the show by those inside the industry who always remember the so-called "good old days" being so much better and the multitude of bloggers who find the sights, sounds, and smells of the experience to be almost overwhelmingly wild (and positive). As one of the most prolific reviewers online for years now, I fall somewhere in between such accounts; recognizing the limitations any show of such magnitude would have while appreciating how much work goes into making it happen. Here goes:
Setting Up:
The show is held in the Sands Exposition Center attached to the Venetian Hotel on the Las Vegas strip. The hotel is beautiful, classy, and well out of my price range but it cannot be overstated how the venue adds something to the show that a standalone civic center somewhere in a low rent part of town simply could not provide (perhaps validity, for lack of a better term). Having pre-registered weeks before the show started for my press pass, I got to see some of the behind the scenes action involved in setting up the show. Vegas is a union town so that meant the majority of booths and displays were set up by locals, a great number of which were busy as could be the days before the show. I arrived in town early to settle in, enjoying some limited exposure to the massive Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that started that Sunday, but made my way to the show floor as the massive effort was underway to prepare for the new schedule of the show. This year, the days were moved in order to accommodate for the fact that so few would show up for the day after the awards; making the show run from Wednesday to Saturday. I assisted with setting up the Press Room (sponsored by Digital
Playground) as I have done several times in the past, keeping a harried Adella O'Neal from going crazy as the demands on her time grew increasingly frequent as the day wore on. The biggest change this year was the promotion of Sean Devlin, the go-to man from previous years, to being in charge; a move that really benefited all considering how much smoother things ran. When I finally went in line to get my press pass, it was in my hands within moments, a stark contrast to previous years under a different administration. Most others who pre-registered enjoyed similar experiences, contrary to what I have seen written elsewhere, and that made life much simpler for me. Most of the booth construction seemed to go smoothly for the companies that planned ahead too, a testament to thinking ahead over winging it as some companies figured they could get away with (and trust me, I could hear the loud howls of complaints from the latter all across the showroom floor).
Dinner:
Later that night, I enjoyed the yearly dinner Digital
Playground throws for select members of the media, sitting at the table with company bigwigs like Joone and lovely Samantha Lewis, fellow reviewer Dr. Jay (from the Houston area as well), the two Lisa's from Club Magazine, and the breathtaking Jana Cova when she finally arrived.
Jesse Jane and hubby Rich were present initially, as were some of the more colorful media types like Gram Ponante, Scott McGowan, and others; most of the contract gals and director Robby D. joining us late thanks to late flights into town. It was a good way to informally discuss a number of topics off the record as well as joke around about different perspectives, rarely hitting a nerve on some of the more sensitive types present. The food was great but it could have been terrible since the atmosphere was so conducive to the flow of information. The walls that typically go up during formal interviews (with the guarded answers they
provide) were not present and with regard to upcoming projects and the direction the company is heading in the near future, I felt fully informed. I only wish I had similar opportunities with some of the other trendsetting companies in the industry. Hearing Joone discuss his difficulties with getting his movies released on Blu-Ray, especially having been the biggest advocate in the industry for the format last year, how the company intends to continue fighting bootleggers and pirates in 2007, or even some of the planned spotlight projects for their new contract hotties like Lacie Heart, Katsumi, and Shay Jordan, nearly put me into overload though it still ended too soon for my liking.
The Show:
The next day was the opening of the show, complete with Jenna Jameson and the Vivid/Club Jenna contract gals present to cut the ribbon that formally signified the start of the festivities. Opening day is for trade and press only so I immediately head for the back of the show floor, knowing that the bigger companies would still be setting up. In many ways, 2006 was a depressed year for the industry with many production companies taking time off from formerly busy shooting schedules, with the exposition reflecting that. A number of big name companies did not have a presence in the main hall, including Digital Sin/New Sensations, Mercenary Pictures, Shane's World, and Zero Tolerance, with some of them offering a small suite beside the press room for business only. The expense and logistics of a large booth proved too much effort for some and simply a waste of valuable resources for others in such a tight year but many of their people wandered the floor visiting their friends so I made sure to say hi.
On the other hand, some companies expanded their presence or took on a life of their own, most notable of which being Jules
Jordan Video. Jules left his former distributor last year and his success has proven to be amazing as he continued to expand his roster of directors while many, maybe most, of his competitors scaled back operations. Another major success story was Sex Z Pictures as they ended up with the best location in the show (by the front doors), having taken the spot from Sin City (also not present) in order to promote their newfound affluence as a result of their release of Corruption.
The third company that really seemed to expand well beyond previous efforts was Bang Bros. Their centrally located spot was very large and stars like Gianna and Sara Jay received a lot more attention because of it. The spacing of the other booths seemed to be an attempt to maintain the illusion of density of years past but there was no mistaking the fact that in terms of open space, there was a lot more of it. Still, the crowds filled in all the spaces on the days when fans entered the floor, repeating the usual rivers of people, complete with tides that could wash you away if you did not like being bumped around by masses of horned up fans intent on seeing every last one of their favorites that were spread around in different booths.
Meeting scores of performers, both newcomers and fan favorites, is the main reason why anyone would brave the lines and crowded conditions of the show. The fans were given access after the first day, getting more hours until Saturday when it was open season for anyone (press, fans, and trade) all day. In previous years, the final day of the show was Sunday but the after parties from the award show and desire to make it back home before the crowds always tended to truncate performer attendance so the initial idea was that moving the last day to Saturday would solve the problem. Unfortunately, the change in venue for the awards show to a hotel clear across town meant a number of performers leaving early on Saturday in order to get dressed, apply make up and otherwise prepare to look their best on the red carpet. Still, the additional room from the lack of booths was filled up by hordes of horned up fans most days, each displaying a different idea of what constituted proper show etiquette. Future visitors should bathe, ask before pawing the ladies, keep in mind that cutting in line makes others really mad, and that hogging the time of the performers will not impress them with your prowess, nor get you any closer to bedding them as a faceless mope (no matter how gracious they may appear to you). Press and trade visitors should keep in mind that the same rules apply to you so no matter how popular you think your website or magazine is, or how many copies of the latest movie you sell, a little common courtesy and understanding will go a long way to making the show better for all involved.
Anecdotes From The Show:
Okay, each day at the show provided a different dynamic thanks in part to some companies saving money by only providing performers on certain days, the amount of fans in attendance, and the design by various publicists to create a buzz about their clients. As a result, the feel of the show varied considerably each day, more than can be put easily into words in a single article. I hope to address some of the major topics discussed in future Blue Room Columns but here is a recap of some of the highlights from the show:
Steve Orenstein, the owner of my favorite features producer Wicked
Pictures and partner of favored gonzo studio Vouyer
Media, and I had a lengthy talk outside the business suites. While I had not planned for this discussion, I found him to be one of the most articulate, intelligent people at the show. A quick glance at our reviews of their titles show we appreciate how his company sets the standard for the niche and he seemed appreciative of the amount of work that goes into our reviews. Both companies have a lot of plans for the future, showing that while many others are scaling back, Wicked is charging into the future in many ways, even releasing the first truly HD DVD porn title just before the show (review forthcoming). Scoffing at the idea that the feature is dead, Mr. Orenstein pointed to the recent successes of Manhunters, Curse Eternal, and a few others, as evidence that fans still appreciate what his company offers. HD, piracy, and the challenges of the internet were discussed, as well as the declining quality so many of his competitors have been providing of late; making it an enjoyable discussion.
I also got lucky in discussing the state of the (porn) union with one of the movers and shakers of Shane's
World at the end of the week in a small business suite. She pointed out that piracy online was extremely harmful to smaller companies, reminding me of how many software publishers went out of business in the early days of the personal computer thanks to a similar mindset.
Coordinated efforts to fight bootleggers have yielded some success but the end result is that many producers spend less money to make movies if they lose too many sales this way. There are a number of ways to combat online piracy that her company has resorted to and the advent of HD porn may assist them since the amount of time it takes to download a full HD movie is almost prohibitive at this time. The conversation went all over the place about trial runs with directors that didn't work out, some of the upcoming efforts by their newest director, Devon, and look for more titles starring contract hotty Casey Parker coming up in 2007.
The internet came up a lot by various producers and directors as their biggest challenge to face in light of file sharing, sales via VOD, and the possibilities it offers. Kylie Ireland and partner Eli Cross (director and star of the multi-award winning Corruption)
have started up a new company where they will provide ultra hardcore downloaded versions of movies they shoot with DVD sales being incidental (having less explicit sex). Rather than fight the coming wave, they have sought to embrace it since the energy and resources needed to fight the thieves is so wasteful that they would rather just focus their efforts on making the best porn they can, hoping that they make a go of it.
Having seen how edgy some of their work has been in the past, I can only imagine how much further they intend on going to satiate the jaded masses but without some of the silly restrictions placed on them by outside production companies, I have the feeling they will succeed on some level. Eli was the head man at AVN for a long time before directing so if anyone can pull it off, he will be the one to lead the pack, not hurt in the slightest by Kylie (a force to be reckoned with in her own light).
A number of other directors candidly pointed out flaws in the antiquated distribution system too. Erik Everhard railed at limitations imposed on him by distributors and a lack of marketing as the reasons for joining his old pal at Jules
Jordan Video, as did Travis Knight. Some, like Robby D. of Digital
Playground or Eon McKai at Vivid
Entertainment expressed gratitude at the chances they have been given to present something different then the generic porn (I refer to it as generi-porn) so prevalent at other companies but they were exceptions to the rule when folks were talking off the record. While the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, too many of the complaints were common to a variety of companies for me to think some might find a better deal elsewhere.
There were numerous parties all week long too, including Tera Patrick's Fashion Show (which seemed to emulate her role in the highly praised Tera Patrick's Fashion Underground), the massively overcrowded Pornotopia party, and the best of the bunch being the Player's Ball sponsored by the nice folks at XFanz, a welcome newcomer to the world of porn news, reviews, and fan friendly forums where industry types hang out. They had rapper Too Short in the house at the Empire Ballroom with the widest array of performers and industry icons on hand to mingle with guests (unlike most parties where the biggest names stayed behind secluded areas where they could not be seen). The Corruption
party was a hit as well but the masses converged on the event (it had been moved repeatedly after the Venetian canceled earlier in the week) and that drastically limited the appeal of the handful of stars that stuck around (even Eli and Kylie left early). A party bus to the infamous Chicken Ranch provided some of the best thrills of the week as some of their ladies offered up great experiences on route to the brothel so many have written about in the past, certainly a fun journey worth the ride even if your budget was as limited as mine. There was no shortage of fun at the Circle Bar too, the best place outside the show to meet and hang out with those in the industry throughout the week.
Internet hotty Dana DeArmond was one of the nicest ladies at the show, providing me with some great laughs over the course of the event. It took her awhile but she won me over last year as a fan after a rough start. Meeting with her and director Eon McKai (who had a habit of introducing me semi-kiddingly as "the guy who hates our stuff" to
people) was enlightening for both sides of the alt-porn debate since I have been on record as a detractor from the earliest releases. He seemed genuinely surprised at my active role in this year's 2006's Top Alt-Porn List and I promised him I would try to revisit some of titles I had deferred to my pal, the alt-expert Mooninite if they came in. Director's Winkytiki and Tristan Taormino were also on hand thanks to Vivid executive Howard Levine, who made sure I had a chance to speak to them and all the contract ladies the company had on hand at the time (including talented Savanna Samson, hotty Sunny Leone, and curvy babe Sophia Rossi among others). It should again be noted that the Vivid/Club Jenna gals were the only ladies dressed up really nicely the entire show, foregoing uniforms or street clothes in favor of maintaining their glamorous appeal (the Vivid-Alt gals like Dana and Charlotte Stokely proving to be exceptions to the rule as they dressed in appropriately Alt outfits).
The Awards Show:
This year the awards show was more open to the public than ever before with the stadium seating of the Mandalay Bay Casino providing the new location for the show. The good news was that a lot more tickets were available since it was a larger venue than the usual spot at the Venetian (the show has been held all over Vegas throughout the years, each location providing unique challenges) and fans were actively encouraged to go to the show this year. The bad news was the distance from the Venetian where the convention was being held caused many performers to leave early on Saturday and the seating arrangements.
Apparently, someone did not think things through and the performers were mixed with fans. As a fan, this sounds like a great idea but performers wanting to enjoy the show, pick up an award, or not worry about their safety probably had a different outlook on the matter. Some performers reported being chased by overzealous fans before and after the show too, leaving a sour taste in their mouth not unlike some of the work they do.
This will likely change next year but the show itself, hosted by beauty Jessica Drake, better music this year, and the same lengthy bouts of boredom that any major awards show can cause before eventually ending.
Many of the titles on our own 2006's Top Porn List won the elusive awards, numerous others being reviewed over the year (a quick glance shows we covered most of the nominees in reviews last year).
The Pictures:
Okay, my mandate was clear to provide as many pictures as I could at the show, trying to provide shots of the performers, directors, and industry notables as best I could. Some people were camera shy, other times shots did not work out, and I did my best to address criticism from the fetish people that I did not get enough pictures of feet last year. There were not as many black performers this year and a lot of performers were simply roaming the show floor instead of signing at booths so I tried to cover them as able. I did not have the special clearance needed to cover the Red Carpet at the awards show (it is very limited and handled by a different person than my usual contact) but I'll work on that for next time. Here are the hundreds of pictures I took at the show (initially, well over 800 of them), some of them deleted due to explicit nature, and others proving too weak to provide anything fans might care about, captions & editing provided courtesy of Das Monkey and Chris Thorne:
Conclusion:
Porn may have had some rough economic times in 2006 but Darwin's theories about survival of the fittest will likely result in some weaker companies being culled from the herd. The companies that listen to fans and provide what they want to see will reap the rewards and others will simply be absorbed in an effort to take advantage of economies of scale.
The doom & gloom crowd always seems to forget the adage about building a better mousetrap and a number of companies seemed ready to push the limits in one manner or another to do just that. The glut in product resulted in lower prices, attempts by some to differentiate themselves, and some truly seem ready to listen so the coming year will likely see a lot more high definition porn and companies using the internet to their advantage to serve your needs even better. Let them know what you want and you may find they are more willing to listen than ever before. Until next time, enjoy the pictures.
Highlights of The Week
Don Houston has always said bigger is better (hailing from Texas, this idea comes
naturally) so it was no wonder he liked Service Animals
24: Special Extended Set: The double disc set was subtitled The Adventures of the Kandee Man, with the ladies all youthful and in search of confectionary treats by the mythic provider of them in the form of wimpy Johnny Thrust (dressed like an ice cream man). Each scene was set apart from the others for the most part and fans of role playing by performers will find this to be a particularly twisted movie with a lot to enjoy, serving up an all star cast with plenty of heat to treat fans with. If you like older men having younger women at their beck and call, you'll love this one as that was the dominant theme, even Joey getting in on the action at times. Service Animals
24: Special Extended Set offered up a lot of disturbing themes and images but the ladies were willing and all of legal age so even the fact that guys old enough to be their father's older brother were frequently used as partners should not be enough to put you off. There was a lot of rougher sex too and not everybody likes such antics but the overall heat, chemistry, and passion displayed by many of the cast elevated the movie's already impressive amounts of fuck for the buck (and solid
extras) to the point where a rating of Highly Recommended was reasonable. Your mileage may vary considerably but given the quality that went along with the quantity of action provided by this double disc set (with the extra sex, it lasted almost five hours), Service Animals
24: Special Extended Set may well keep you raincoaters stroking your meat for a very long time.
Lovely reviewer Ravyn has been busy enjoying Larry Flynt's Private Collection 6: Taboo, telling us that it had: Sultry seductresses, kinky sex, and dirty cravings, watch as these naughty nymphs make your fetish dreams come true! Eight seductive Fetish-Filled Scenes to satiate your thirst. Larry Flynt's Private Collection isn't like other titles that markets "Fetish" to increase the sales of its titles. Not so with this title. Each scene took on its own life be it gothic in nature or futuristic to bring out the very best of the performers. From the very first moment I loaded the DVD into the player I had a gut feeling that Larry Flynt's Private Collection Volume #6 was going to be very interesting to watch. At first I couldn't watch it as a reviewer. I sat back and watched the entire DVD with out so much as moving. I was very impressed with much of it. Viewing it twice, it definitely left a good impression on me. In saying that I Recommend this title to everyone that wants a taste of what the BDSM lifestyle has offer.
Jaded reviewer Don
Houston appreciated New Whores on the Block 2: Special Extended Set: Manuel Ferrara has been one of the most surprising newcomer directors in gonzo over the last year thanks to his ability to translate his sexual charisma onto the small screen with numerous women in his productions. Now that he's in the big leagues with a distribution deal at Evil
Angel, the length of his movies has increased substantially and the extras have been ramped up considerably as well, with New Whores on the Block 2: Special Extended Set being his latest release to make it my way. The title would make one think the ladies in the cast were all new to porn but that was simply not the case, each seeming to have plenty of experience with a cock, but the scenarios were often funny and the heated performances better than average so I thought most of you who have enjoyed Manuel's previous efforts would like this one too. New Whores on the Block 2: Special Extended Set sure offered up a lot of fuck for the buck, even if the technical values were not up to par with what I've come to expect from the director and his distributor. The double disc set provided ample space to leave the scenes less compressed but the simple fact is that the lighting and work on the front end probably couldn't be fixed in post production. Still, the raw energy from the scenes and splendid performances made up most of the lost ground so I rated it as a high end Recommended, even if I wondered what happened to the picture more than a few times. In short, New Whores on the Block 2: Special Extended Set showed that these whores might have been established professionals but their ride on Manuel's block was well worth the trip.
Esteemed reviewer Namrufmot likes youthful ladies in his porn so we tend to defer to his judgment about such titles. This week, he brought two before us that merited special
attention: Barely Legal
66: Every time I review a Barely Legal titles I rant and rave about how hot the girls are. Needless to say I was simply amazed that this DVD has assembled the best-looking casts I've ever seen on one disc, and Best of Teen Anals, saying it: This is one of the best compilation discs I've ever seen. For once I believe the studio when they say these are the "Best Teen Anals" around. As you'd expect, each of the girls is super-hot and full of energy and enthusiasm. If they had provided more extras I would have given it a higher rating. But as it stands it still earns a rating of "recommended". If you are in the market for teen gals having a good time, it sounds like these two titles might really hit the spot at fulfilling your needs.
Reviewer The
Mooninite found a double dose of delightful dicking with; Dana DeArmond Does The Internet: continues Vivid Alt's trend of releasing porn that is both interesting and sexy. It features some sexy starlets engaged in some deliciously deviant behavior but it's also really well shot and done with a great sense of humor. The soundtrack is fun and Dana carries the movie with ease and no shortage of completely endearing appeal. In between sex scenes we learn more about Dana. She talks about how she's straight edge and how she's into Brit-pop and hardcore (all of these qualities make her even hotter) and how she tries to take her critics in stride. Interestingly enough, she talks about how people recognize her from the Internet but in real life don't say hello, even though they'll write her emails. Dana's cute and sexy, smart and funny, and she's got great taste in music. She's the girl next door with a bit more bite and a whole lot more libido and wouldn't it'd probably be just as much fun to eat ice cream with her in a snack bar as it would be to eat ice crème off of her truly impressive ass. Well, maybe not quite as much fun, but at least reasonably close, and I Love Brandy:
Measuring in at 36DD-26-36, Brandy Talore has a voluptuous body to kill for. To top that curvy figure off, she's got a really pretty face too.
In short, Brandy's the kind of girl you want to see naked and in action and New Sensations has picked up on that and in turn released a compilation of eight of her finest scenes. She hasn't been in the business all that long but she's already building a bit of a following â€" this disc is a really good example of just why that is... While the lack of variety in this compilation means that this won't be one for the masses, fans of Brandy's work will really enjoy this lengthy eight-scene 'best of' release. Those who haven't checked her out and who appreciate foxy big titted naturals would do well to scope out some of her work and this disc is a great way to get acquainted with her.
Esteemed reviewer Disco Dirge enjoyed a pair of titles as well with Blue Ribbon Butt Fucks 1: Time and experience has not dissuaded the Dirge from his original opinion about Adam "Seymore Butts" Glasser and his handheld hump-a-thons. Even in film clip form, without any real concept of time, place or purpose, the quartet of quackenbush offered on Blue Ribbon Butt Fucks is enough to make even the most discerning ass aficionado 'stiffen' and take notice. Intense without being insane, passionate without the play-acting one comes to associate with such XXX treatments, this title earns an easy rating of Highly Recommended. Couples will also enjoy the level of lewdness here, especially how Butts keeps the women from being dominated doormats. As a result, a Cohabitation Certification is more or less mandated. With the current crop of hardcore wannabes clogging up the glorified gonzo landscape, Butts has kind of fallen out of favor with adult audiences. If you ever want proof of why he remains a viable fuck and suck force, however, Blue Ribbon Butt Fucks #1 will act is an excellent instant reminder. It definitely provides professional and proper adult action, and our THIRD look at Sex City 2:
it's an attempted nookie noir, the narrative elements of Sin City melded into a new XXX version of the tale. Actually, it's a clear case of style over sexual substance, a compendium of hardcore possibilities limited by the decision to drag out the mainstream movie's storyline over three (or more) endless installments of erotic. One does have to give Pierre Woodman credit. He ALMOST recreates the look and feel of the original film, and sticks so closely to the plot that there's very little suspense or surprise. Attempting the seamless meshing of fornication with exposition, Sex City 2 frequently stumbles in the shuck and jive department. Of the ten scenes offered, more than a couple are qualified quickies â€" one or two meaningless positions, a pop (or not) and then on with the show. Earning an extra point for artistic creativity and taking into consideration the fact that many hardcore fans really appreciate the Continental style of suck and fuck, Sex City 2 earns the slightest Recommended that's reasonable. There will be those who hate the over-reliance on narrative, wondering when story became as important as penetration to the XXX title, and anyone who is a true lover of the original film will find this silly spoof to be rather disrespectful of what Rodriguez and Miller actually created.
Another classic oral title in the making was Sperm Receptacles
2: Special Edition: Mike John has been at the forefront of making point of view (POV) gonzo a household word to some of us. Some critics think he can do no wrong and others credit him with a wide range of firsts though my own experiences vary from them a bit. I was not always a fan of Mike's work and even now I do not praise everything he does but if you like his style, there are few in his league in the limited areas of gonzo he focuses his efforts on, making it no surprise that Jules
Jordan Video picked him up to distribute last year. His latest flick is a blow bang title called Sperm Receptacles
2: Special Edition, a sequel to a title that sold well for another company awhile back. There was actually some penetrative sex this time but only in one of the scenes making up this lengthy oral gonzo release.
It was clearly worth a rating of Recommended for most raincoaters and probably even more for fans of the director. The ladies were usually right on the money in regards to showing some talent, passion for cock, and a willingness to push their limits substantially in some cases to provide a solid show of hardcore entertainment. The technical matters were well done and the theme was clearly addressed in each of the seven scenes filling up the two discs. In short, Sperm Receptacles
2: Special Edition was exactly what it was advertised as being so there should be no mistaking this for a weaker show by a competitor.
Cumswapping is all in vogue these days so fans of the nasty sex act will especially enjoy Sperm Swappers
3: Mark Ashley has been a meat puppet for years now and some ladies have expressed a preference for the kind of hard pumping action he provides as male talent. As a director, he seems to offer a similar style, driving scenes through as though he were on a mission; albeit sometimes getting a bit rougher than I prefer to see. His most recent title is from Elegant
Angel in the form of Sperm Swappers 3 and the action one would expect is here in spades. The gals have hardcore sex with a guy, often Mark himself, and eventually end the scene by taking the load in the mouth of one gal, swapping it to the other gal, and then one of them swallows it down. I look for chemistry and energy in such scenes more than anything else but also pay attention to make sure that the advertised action takes place each time and how well it adheres to the general dynamic of the theme. This was one of those times when the scenes might have been slightly formula driven but they all provided the kind of action listed, making it a good movie for those interested. It had a good cast of ladies, some solid energy in many scenes, and a nice amount of chemistry to go with the usual levels of fuck for the fuck and strokability factors so I rated it as Recommended. A couple scenes appeared to have the performers winging it too much and there for the money more than anything else (which is fine so long as you don't look like it) but it served as a step up from the initial volumes in the series if I recall them correctly. In short, Sperm Swappers 3 provided a decent ride for your money thanks in large part to the cameramen capturing more of the energy than many others would have been able to do so give it a look.
We conclude the highlights of the week with a compilation from Justin Slayer in the form of Unleashed vs.
Freshly Slayed 2: Special Extended Set: a selection of eight scenes from Justin's Unleashed and Freshly Slayed series shot years ago. I've liked his stuff for a long time, although I'll be the first to admit that I wish he had more background in the actual shooting of porn like some of his peers. There was no new footage to enjoy but the double disc set offered up the majority of his work from the second volume of each series, completists probably preferring her simply slap the old titles on disc at a lower price point for their consumption. If you're still interested in seeing a lot of interracial action, you'll find a lot to like here, primarily due to the quality of the sex over the way the scenes were captured. It was easily full of the kind of fuck for the buck strokability that Justin probably hopes will combat pirates stealing his works online to warrant a rating of Recommended or better.
Fans of quantity will find the value price of the set a treat since there was over four hours of footage here, nearly five if you include the BTS from Freshly Slayed 2. In short, fans of Justin Slayer would do well to pick up a copy of Unleashed vs.
Freshly Slayed 2: Special Extended Set considering the amount of hot women, heated pairings, and general value, even if the technical values were a bit on the weak side at times.
