Yes, they make adult movies that have real plots. These, for example.

	20 Questions Chuck Lords Vivid 20 Questions stars starlet Meggan Mallone as a neophyte porn star talking to an interviewer (Derrick Pierce) about how she got into the business, on the eve of her first boy/girl scene. Their chat — which is written quite naturally and convincingly — is interrupted by a flashback/fantasy to one of her cheating boyfriend's three-way conquests, a hot opener with Phoenix Marie and the delicious Maya Gates, who shows her lovely body off to particularly fine effect in cowgirl fucking. Later Derrick visits Meggan's apartment to continue the interview, and encounters Meggan's roommate — the yummy Jennifer Dark — who's busy fucking her boyfriend... though she does ask Derrick to help warm up her ass with a toy. Once broken in a bit, Jennifer returns to her lover, and the subsequent ass-fucking is fantastic, absolutely the film's highlight. The scene gradually becomes a four-way with all the performers involved and swapping partners — such hospitality! The climax, Meggan's return to her cheating boyfriend, is also quite hot, if not as energetic as some earlier moments. Overall, it's a fun, fast-moving, and enjoyable tale that could have been called A Porn Star Is Born. (2008, 115 min.) Cast: Voodoo, Derrick Pierce, Phoenix Marie, Jennifer Dark, Ramon, Maya Gates, Meggan Mallone item NV-VIV-1678-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-viv-1678`

	The Accidental Hooker Brad Armstrong Wicked The Accidental Hooker stars the yummy Kaylani Lei in the title role, as a high-class call girl who tells her life story to a couple of sex work researchers — or, at least, the story of how she fell into her chosen profession. It starts when she meets a cute guy on the internet and decides to meet him in real life. They fuck, quite beautifully... and when they're done, he leaves an envelope full of cash on the nightstand. From there, it's an inevitable trip into a world of debauchery, easy money, and increasing depravity. We get to see Kaylani with many of her tricks: highlights include the limo scene with Deep Threat; a three-way session, with anal, co-starring Victoria Sin and Niko (the 2008 Playgirl Man of the Year, for a little extra beefcake); and another three-way where Kaylani joins an adventurous married couple played by Tommy Gunn and blonde beauty Shyla Stylez. Kaylani does a great job in both the sex scenes and the plot-advancing scenes, and the story is pretty good, too, leading up to a shocking Twilight Zone-ish twist ending (which is totally out of left field, but definitely memorable). (2008, 129 min) Cast: Barrett Blade, Barry Scott, Brad Armstrong, Chris Cannon, Deep Threat, Derrick Pierce, Devon Lee, Jennifer Dark, Kaylani Lei, Marcus London, Mikayla, Niko, Shyla Stylez, Tommy Gunn, Victoria Sin item NV-WKD-1629-BLU, blu-ray format: `$51.95` `v-wkd-1629`

	Afrodite Superstar Femme Chocolat Adam & Eve/Femme Productions Afrodite Superstar is the first feature from "Femme Chocolat," a new division of feminist porn company Femme Productions dedicated to increasing ethnic diversity in porn. It's a welcome change to see so many performers who aren't white, blonde, and surgically-enhanced, but a laudable mission statement doesn't guarantee good moviemaking. Fortunately, this film stars the wonderful Simone Valentino, who combines great sexiness with great comic timing. She even has a good script to work with, playing Afrodite, a self-described "BAP" — Black American Princess — from Beverly Hills. One night while she's out at a karaoke bar with her best friend Isis, Afrodite is discovered by a hip-hop starmaker CEO. Afrodite doesn't actually have any talent, or any desire to be a musician, but she goes along for the ride while Isis provides music for her to lip-sync over. Eventually, of course, Afrodite has to decide whether she wants to live a lie, pretending to be a badass from Compton in a culture where women are routinely called bitches and hos, or if she wants to be true to herself and find her own path. The film is a gentle satire of gangsta rap culture, and ultimately a rather sweet love story. Some of the jokes are hilarious — Afrodite's gangsta alter-ego claims to have been born in prison! — though others are less inspired (she suffers a "wardrobe malfunction" during a live performance and has to apologize to her fans). The numerous fake music videos are a treat, too. The filmmakers occasionally hits you over the head with the feminist subtext (one character likes to quote Gloria Steinem and bell hooks, complete with attribution!), but their intentions are good. This is a porn movie, of course, and there are sex scenes, but there are long stretches of movie with no naked booty on screen at all, and less than half the movie features people fucking onscreen. Still, it's a sexy, funny, and best of all different film, well worth a look. (2007, 70 min.) Cast: Simone Valentino, India, Mr. Marcus, Sativa Verte, Revay, Jay Junker, Justin Long, Liliana Velasquez item NV-FEM-1529-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-fem-1529`

	Barbara Broadcast Too! Veronica Hart VCA Pictures You know that an adult movie actress is good at what she does when she does a scene in which her character loses her virginity, as an adult... and you believe every moment of it. Chloe is one of our favorite actresses here at Blowfish, and this movie shows why. She's cute, funny, and when she has sex, you know she's having a great time. The sex is sweet, fun, and hot. The movie is very funny in places, and don't we all wish we lived in a world in which sexual demonstrations at book signings were considered normal? While all the performers are attractive, none of them have a look that screams "porn star!", and that's a good thing. The women are a wide range of ages and physical types, and not one of them has an unnatural-looking body... and that's a very good thing. There's a lot of emphasis on female pleasure, and that's... well, that's a very, very good thing. (2003, 135 min.) Cast: Chloe, Alex Foxe, Ashlyn Gere, Brooke Adams, Dru Berrymoor, Justine Romee, Kelly Steele, Rebecca Bardoux, Rebecca Starr, Ruby, Sharon Kane, Venus, Wendy Divine, Anthony Hardwood, Billy Glyde, Chris Cannon, Dino Bravo, Hamilton Steele, Mark Anthony, Marty Romano, Matt Ward, Rafe, Randy Spears, Steve Hatcher, Steven Wilcox, Tyce Bune, William Monaro item NV-VCA-1349-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-vca-1349`

	Beautiful Michael Raven Wicked Pictures This film won all sorts of 2004 AVN awards (including Best Video Feature, in a tie with Raw Hide), as well as the 2003 XRCO award for Best Video, and it deserved every single one of them. A sweet, lovely girl is working for a cruel, exploitative boss in this elaborate retelling of "Sleeping Beauty." The production is simply gorgeous; punk-noir 1940s blending with modern-day look. The sex is very hot, and while the performers are very, very good looking, they represent a splendid trend away from being anorexic and surgery-intensive. The acting is above par for this kind of feature, and did we mention that the sex is very hot? And that it looks great? It does. More porn should be like this; watch it with someone you love, or at least have the hots for. For those that have the equipment for it, the (superb) soundtrack on the DVD is recorded using Dolby 5.1 Surround Digital. Speaking of awards, Julia Ann received a 2003 XRCO nomination for Single Performance, Actress for her work here. (2003, 100 min.) Cast: Julia Ann, Stormy Daniels, Devinn Lane, Kaylani Lei, Olivia del Rio, Ashley Long, Julia Taylor, Natalia Wood, Brad Armstrong, Steven St Croix, Randy Spears, Eric Masterson, Joey Ray, Dale Dabone item NV-WKD-1376-DVD, dvd format: `$28.95` `v-wkd-1376`

	Bound Michael Raven Wicked In Bound, gorgeous blonde Stormy Daniels (who wrote the film) plays Lily, a drug addicted waitress-turned-prostitute who finds salvation of a sort when she marries a much older and very rich man. But when he dies, she finds herself alone and depressed in their giant house. She eventually agrees to go out and have some fun with her husband's lawyer, Garret, who introduces her to a joyfully depraved world of play parties and BDSM. It takes a while for the kink to start, though there are plenty of other sex scenes — we see Stormy (gorgeous in lingerie) fucking a fellow drug addict in a hotel room; being briefly fondled (again in gorgeous lingerie) by her husband on their wedding night; masturbating in a bathtub; sucking Garret off. Garret convinces her to go to a party, and though she leaves early, but we get to see the other partygoers have a hot and messy orgy. Finally, about an hour in, they go to a BDSM party, and there's plenty of whipping, flogging, latex, ropes, and chains. Stormy gets introduced to the idea of becoming a full time slave, and finds it appealing... but Garret's motives in becoming her master might not be as purely sexual as they seem, and Stormy could be in for rough weather. Bound has good writing, decent acting, great production values, glossy kink, and the insanely hot Stormy Daniels as the film's center — there's a lot to like here. (2008, 103 min.) Cast: Stormy Daniels, Angie Savage, Cassidy Clay, Chavon Taylor, Diana Doll, Gianna Lynn, Jessica Shaw, Naomi Cruise, Roxy DeVille, Devon Savage, Jay Huntington, Marcus London, Randy Spears, Tony de Sergio, Voodoo item NV-WKD-1628-DVD, dvd format: `$33.95` `v-wkd-1628`

	The Bridal Shower Candida Royalle Femme Productions A bridal shower turns steamy as the showerees flirt, share sex tips, teach each other how to strip, and tell stories about their sex lives and fantasies (all stories fully depicted, thanks to the miracle of video flashbacks!). Lots of fun, raunchy, tell-it-like-it-is sex talk (if you guys have ever wondered what women talk like when you're not there, this is the movie to buy), along with the usual sensual, emotional, woman's-point-of-view sex scenes that are the trademark of Candida Royalle's Femme Productions. It's a pleasure to see some mature, thirty- and forty-something, porn-veteran women instead of the usual assortment of just-post-teen porn bunnies; and there's some excellent sex advice snuck in with the entertainment. A terrific couple's tape. (1997, 80 min.) Cast: Nina Hartley, Sharon Kane, Porsche Lynn, Missy, Melissa Hill, Guy DeSilva, Jonathan Morgan, Mike Horner item NV-FEM-2239-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-fem-2239`

	Car Wash Paul Thomas Vivid Car Wash takes a classic teen comedy premise and porns it up. Five hot blondes on a cheerleading squad dream of making the national competition, but their dream is shattered when they come in sixth in the rankings — and only the top five teams get to compete. The solution? Hire a mobbed-up family friend to rub out one of the opposing squads. Of course, paying him involves various sexual favors, girl-on-girl performances for his amusement, and raising a lot of money. They enter an amateur porn competition (the photo shoot, rather inevitably, turns into an orgy with strap-ons). When that doesn't generate enough cash, they turn to the time-tested bikini carwash fundraising method. Wet girls in skimpy bikinis enliven any film, and when a limo arrives with a rich man and his mistress in the back, things become rather more explicit, and there's a three-way that even involves a brunette! All the teen sex romp highlights are hit here; there's even a naked feather pillow fight, and a sleepover that turns orgy. It's fun, and often funny, and the sex is hot; it's like a joyfully crude teen comedy with the addition of hardcore sex. Katie Morgan's performance is especially good, but all the blondes (and the token brunette) acquit themselves well. (2008, 80 min.) Cast: Stefani Morgan, Lanny Barby, Katie Gold, Katie Morgan, Shay Sweet, Alexis Malone, Nick Manning, Van Damage, Jack Venice, Trent Soluri, Steven St. Croix item NV-VIV-1704-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-viv-1704`

	Champion Shine Louise Houston Pink and White/Blowfish Video Champion, directed by celebrated feminist porn director Shine Louise Houston, stars Syd Blakovich (a Blowfishie and a real-life mixed martial artist) in a tale of fucking and fighting that transcends the level of ordinary porn; it's better considered as an indie lesbian film that happens to include a lot of explicit sex. Jessie (Syd) is a martial artist on the cusp of the big time — going on the circuit, getting corporate sponsorship, the whole deal. But the clean and wholesome image her manager has worked so hard to create is starting to slip as rumors of her homosexuality and promiscuity begin to slip out onto the internet. Things get worse when an old enemy threatens to reveal the truth about Jessie's life to a magazine — unless Syd agrees to throw an important fight. Intermingled with this tale of ambition and betrayal are, of course, lots of the intense, passionate, and playful lesbian sex scenes we've come to expect from Houston's work. The best of a very good lot is Syd's sex with Blowfish favorite Madison Young, which is one of the hottest girl-girl scenes ever committed to film: Syd's easy control makes a captivating match with Madison, who is fetchingly all a-tremble as she's slapped around, eaten out, and fucked with a strap-on. Other good scenes include a rather sweet and tender coupling with Syd and Jiz Lee, and Dylan Ryan's back-of-a-van romp with Javier, where they both take turns wearing the cock and wearing one another out. Syd's sexual chemistry with rival fighter Dallas adds a smoldering intensity that helps drive the plot. This is the peak of Houston's considerable achievements as a director, and a must-see for fans of real lesbian sex, ultimate fighting, and — simply — good cinema. Blowfish Video is proud to release this groundbreaking movie, an entire new generation of erotic film from the three-time winner of the Feminist Porn Awards, Shine Louise Houston. Winner of "Movie of the Year" in the 2009 Feminist Porn Awards! Trailer: QuickTime format • Windows Media Player format. (2008, 90 min.) Cast: Syd Blakovich, Dallas, Jiz Lee, Dylan Ryan, Madison Young, Javier, Brooklyn Flaco (non-sex), Trouble Royale (non-sex) item NV-BVI-1654-DVD, dvd format: `$29.95` `v-bvi-1654`

	Cherry Bomb Vivid Cherry Bomb combines sex and (mostly offscreen) violence with a great deal of energy. The plot is really dark, but it's mainly a delivery mechanism for several hot sex scenes, most featuring the delicious blonde Monique Alexander in the title role. She plays a prostitute under investigation for a series of deaths involving victims connected to her — clients, fellow hookers, her father, her best friend, her pimp, etc. Alektra Blue plays the hot cop interrogator trying to shake the truth out of her, but Cherry maintains her innocence, and the film unfolds in a series of flashbacks that neither confirm nor deny her involvement in the murders. In the first scene, Monique lights up the screen in a skimpy schoolgirl outfit, role-playing with a john (who later dies falling down the stairs). Scene 2 has Cherry's father (Tom Byron) fucking her best friend (Missy Monroe, who looks a bit haggard in this role, especially compared to Monique's fresh-faced beauty); they get poisoned afterward. Scene 3 has Monique in a skimpy red dress pleasuring her pimp (before he gets skewered with a barbecue fork). Scene 4 is the best of a good bunch, with yummy Hillary Scott, Flower Tucci (famous for her squirting ability), and Jay Huntington indulging in an incredibly energetic three-way that leaves them all looking sticky, mussed, and thoroughly satisfied (at least, until they get taken out by a car bomb). The final scene is the inevitable girl-girl get-together between Monique and Alektra, who has finally become convinced of Monique's innocence. They passionately pleasure one another in the interrogation room and make good use of evidence (crime scene dildo!). There's a twist at the end, of course — not much of a twist, but satisfying, if a bit disturbing. The production values are pretty good, though the lighting in some of the flashback scenes is washed-out, and the sound in the interrogation scenes is hollow, tinny, and echoing to the point of distraction. Overall this is a smutty, dark-edged flick with lots of anal, squirting, sucking, and fucking, with enough of a plot to keep things connected and moving along briskly. If you don't mind the fact that almost everyone involved in a sex scene winds up dead, check it out. (2007, 140 min.) Cast: Monique Alexander, Derrick Pierce, Missy Monroe, Tom Byron, Marcus London, Hillary Scott, Flower Tucci, Jay Huntington, Alektra Blue item NV-VIV-1530-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-viv-1530`

	Christine's Secret Candida Royalle Femme Productions A charming country inn provides the lush setting surrounding the mystery of Christine's secret. What is the meaning of the repeated visits of our city girl? Winner of four New York Adult Critics Awards. (1986, 75 min.)

	Corruption SexZ Pictures Corruption combines a compelling story, flawed characters, high production values, and gonzo stunt-fucking in an epic tale of power and, yes, corruption. The center of the film is the relationship between Bryn Pryor (as ruthless Republican senator and presidential hopeful David Walker Helms) and Hillary Scott (as his willing and eventually ill-used fucktoy Natasha). There are a lot of plot twists, far too many to enumerate, and the film is worth watching for the story alone. The plot is driven mostly by the senator's wife (played with great sexiness and charisma by Kylie Ireland), who tries to get rid of Natasha because the senator keeps taking her out with him in public, and reporters are beginning to suspect an affair. Of course, the truth is far more depraved than a mere affair, with Natasha tormented for the senator's amusement, used to seduce and blackmail political rivals, and constantly defiled, to her own great delight. Most of the sex scenes — which are long, involved, emotional, and indescribably raunchy — serve the story, revealing things about characters and driving the plot. All the gonzo stops are pulled out, with gangbangs, double vaginal penetration, double anal, slapping, spitting, bondage, choking blowjobs, dirty talk, and more, but it all makes perfect sense for the characters, who are desperate to feel anything real, and who seek ever more extreme sexual outlets for their frustration and rage. Only the final orgy scene is a disappointment — it's meant to highlight the senator's loneliness and desolation as he sits alone in the midst of depraved acts of sport-fucking, and that works, but there's a hollowness to the by-the-numbers orgy that's disappointing after the intensity of the other scenes. Still, even with that low point, there's still 3 hours and 40 minutes of great sex-and-story here, which should be enough for anybody. There are tons of extras, including a good director's commentary, lots of behind-the-scenes footage, an extended blowjob scene, a big photo gallery, trailers, etc. Altogether a great value. Won Best Screenplay, Best Editing and Best Video Feature at the 24th Annual AVN Awards. Hillary Scott won the AVN for Best Actress for her role in this movie, and Bryn Pryor Won the AVN for Best Non-Sex Performance. (2006, 4 hours) Cast: Hillary Scott, Chris Cannon, Alana Evans, Sophia, Kelly Wells, Franko Del Torro, Johnny Castle, Herschel Savage, Tyler Knight, Kylie Ireland, Steve Holmes, Jenner, Alex Sanders, James Deen, Stacy Thorn, Mark Davis, Sandra Romain, Arianna Jollee, Lexi Bardot, Annie Cruz, Vixen, Jordan Styles, Jerry, Derrick Pierce, Rick Masters, Seth Dickens item NV-SXZ-1479-DVD, dvd format: `$32.95` item NV-SXZ-1479-BLU, blu-ray format: `$43.95` `v-sxz-1479`

	Dark Angels Nic Andrews Skillfully directed, beautifully filmed, with a seriously interesting story and wicked-hot sex, Dark Angels is that rarest of all rarities — a sex video that works both as a movie and as smut. New Sensations reportedly spent months on this film, both in production and post-production, and quite a bit of money as well. And it shows: Dark Angels does an excellent job of pushing the boundary between porn-movies and movie-movies. The production values are first-class (well, on the porno scale of things, anyway), with excellent editing, way-cool special effects, and camerawork that puts other porn movies to shame, all adding up to a stylish, striking, and compelling overall look. The story (a supernatural vampire crime thing — Buffy and Angel fans will love it) is actually interesting, and the acting and writing are pretty decent; it's not Citizen Kane, but it's definitely on a level with a good B-movie, and we had no desire whatsoever to fast-forward through the plot. And the sex is gorgeous and wild, with attractive performers who seem really, really happy to be there. Highly, highly, highly recommended — the whole office was totally distracted the day we popped it into the VCR (back when we had such things), and some of us count it among the best adult movies we've seen. Do note that there is some violence in it, including a couple of "vampires killing their victims after fucking them" scenes — we personally found them totally hot, but it may not be your thing. Winner of the 2000 AVN awards for Best Video Feature, Best Director, and Best All-Girl Sex Scene! (2000, 120 min.) Cast: Sydnee Steele, Jewel De Nyle, Ginger Paige, Evan Stone, Erik Everhard, April, McKayla, Phylisha Ryder, Voodoo Child, Mickey G., Mike Horner,George Kaplan item NV-NWS-2295-DVD, dvd format: `$32.95` `v-nws-2295`

	Debbie Does Dallas... Again Thomas, Paul Vivid Debbie Does Dallas...Again is a funny, sexy, big-budget film that's sure to show up on award ballots. Director Paul Thomas has crafted a truly strange and surprising film that is ostensibly a remake of the original Debbie Does Dallas. The two movies don't have much in common, though, except the presence of cheerleaders in skimpy outfits — and, really, isn't that enough? Stefani Morgan plays Debbie, head of a co-ed cheerleading squad that's about to take part in a big national competition. She's having fun sleeping with cute boys and leading her team on the road to victory until her treacherous co-captain arranges for her to have an "accident" during a particularly acrobatic cheer. Penny Flame, who hilariously plays a rather sex-crazed angel, informs Debbie that she's dead, but Debbie has unfinished business, so she makes a deal to trade sexual favors in the afterlife for a return ticket to Earth. The resulting angelic orgy — on a set featuring a vintage convertible and pools of water — is both very hot and very weird, with amazing rough sex with Penny and Debbie and Evan Stone. Debbie returns to Earth... but not in her own body. She has to steal the body of suicidal geek Hillary Scott, and win her way back onto the cheerleading squad without revealing her true identity. The bits with Hillary and her blatantly cheating boyfriend Marty Romano are hilarious, especially when she walks in to find him dressed up in a cheerleader outfit — the movie's full of bizarre, funny little details like that. Naturally, the reincarnation of Debbie takes over the cheerleading squad, leads them to the finals... and then there's an actual plot twist that you may not even see coming. The movie's full of good sex scenes and tons of scantily-clad eye candy, including everything you'd expect from a cheerleader porno, including erotic exercise routines and locker-room lesbianism. Plus all the weird stuff — a blowjob in a coffin, angels in undisguised fake wings and halos shagging against pillars, even some play with candle wax (not a traditional part of cheerleader porn). The extras are epic — this is a three-disc set, and includes the entire original Debbie Does Dallas, plus tons of bonus scenes and outtakes, trailers, galleries, behind the scenes feature, and so on. Winner of the 2008 AVN Flim Award for Best Group Sex Scene (Stefani Morgan, Savanna Samson, Monique Alexander, Evan Stone, Christian & Jay Huntington). (2007, 2 hrs.) Cast: Stefani Morgan, Derrick Pierce, Monique Alexander, Lacie Heart, Sunny Leone, Courtney Simpson, Penny Flame, Evan Stone, Staci Thorne, Marty Romano, Hillary Scott, Cassidey, Savanna Sampson, Christian, Jay Huntington item NV-VIV-1513-DVD, dvd format: `$27.95` `v-viv-1513`

	Debbie Loves Dallas Eon McKai Vivid Alt Debbie Loves Dallas is a re-imagining of legendary cheerleader porno Debbie Does Dallas (already the subject of many a remake), with the pierced-and-punk aesthetic typical of Vivid Alt productions. This time Dallas is a rock band, and Debbie (Cassidey) is their biggest fan, determined to lay the lead singer (Alex Gonz). In the first scene, Dana DeArmond fucks drug dealer Tommy Pistol in his van, with a rough blowjob, some slapping, and anal — it's a fun scene, and the performers have a good time with it. Next up, junkie James Deen gets it up for Pixie Pearl, with some tit-fucking to start. There's a nice effect where Pixie fantasizes that she's fucking the singer from Dallas instead. Then Pixie and Dana make their way to the recording studio to fuck some of the band members, with three guys and two girls switching partners frequently — it's rough, nasty, and frenetic, filmed on shaky handheld cameras, and when the action isn't hard to follow, it's hot. Charlotte Stokeley and Cassidey hold out for a chance to fuck the lead singer, though, and find a guy who's willing to introduce him... to whichever one of them sucks the best cock. They do their best, but he doesn't follow through on the promise. Monique, Pixie, and Cassidey assuage their disappointment by having a rough-and-tumble all-girl three-way. Charlotte finally sneaks into the recording studio under the pretense of being a reporter, and manages to give the rock star a good sloppy blowjob... but they're interrupted before she goes as far as she'd like. Finally — as we knew she would — Cassidey gets the chance to fuck her number one crush. It's a pretty good scene, though perhaps not worth all the build-up. There's some foot-fucking for the cumshot, which is nice if you're into that. This is a clever, fun flick full of little jokes, asides, and pop-cultural references, with a hot cast. The music is even pretty good. Extras include commentaries, a PDF of the script, photo gallery, a short film, and a CD soundtrack in the form of "Dallas's" new EP. It's a cool, funky, sexy package. (2007, 1 hr. 57 min.) Cast: Dana DeArmond, Tommy Pistol, Pixie Pearl, James Deen, Pixie Pearl, Daniel, Julius Ceazher, Icarus Corpse, Cassidey, Charlotte Stokely, Justin Syder, Monique Alexander item NV-VIV-1583-DVD, dvd format: `$27.95` `v-viv-1583`

	E-Love Wanted Simon Wolf Simon Wolf has a great sense of humor... and that's a wonderful thing in porn. A woman whose boyfriend is a serious two-timer, and a professor with no social life whatsoever are set up via a dating service without their knowledge by their "friends." So, we have your basic meet-cute, get-stranded-in-a-cabin-cute, fuck-cute plot. It's, well, very cute. And very entertaining, with a ton of very hot sex long the way. Natalia Wood (as the cheated-upon girlfriend) can, in fact, act, and the young hot professor is a definite step above most slightly-scruffy porn studs in both attractiveness and articulateness (is that a word?). The sex is a great deal of fun to watch, and isn't excessively raunchy or rough. (There's some anal, but that's par for the course these days.) The movie is laugh-out-loud funny in places, and intentionally so. (2003, 113 min.) Cast: Natalia Wood, Elizabeth Lawrence, Fallon Sommers, Tanya James, Haley, Alexis Malone, Betty Sue, Joey Ray, Evan Stone, Steve Holmes, Tony Pounds, Dillon item NV-SWP-1212-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-swp-1212`

	Edge Play Veronica Hart A businesswoman (Marilyn Chambers) meets a wealthy couple who devote their lives to making women's sexual fantasies happen in reality. She's fascinated, but also scared; as the story progresses, she overcomes her reservations and begins to play with her sexual desires in the real world. A good choice for couples looking for something a little raunchier and edgier than you usually get in "couple's tapes"; there's a strong focus on female pleasure, and everyone involved looks like they're having a ball, with some very loud, expressive performances. The fantasies are imaginative and fun, with a light touch of kink. It's great to see Chambers doing new work, and there's a terrific scene with Chloe (who we're always happy to see) getting fucked in a sling in a nightclub. And unlike a lot of "fantasy made real" sex movies, Edge Play actually shows negotiation, limits, and safewords in action. An interesting, sexy exploration of fantasies in the head and fantasies acted out. (2001, 140 min.) Cast: Marilyn Chambers, Chloe, Keisha, Jamie Gillis, Kylie Ireland, Brooke Hunter, Kim Chambers, Tyce Bune, Dale Dabone, Nick Manning, Valentino, Randy Spears, Joel Lawrence, Kyle Stone, Jay Ashley, Bruno Sx, Eric Masterson, Marty Romano, Don Hollywood, Michael Thic item NV-VCA-2307-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-vca-2307`

	Erection Services InPulse Erection Services is a porn-for-straight-women feature starring buff beefcake Julian (this time with the assistance of Alex Sanders and Chris Cannon). The male performers get top billing here, which should tell you all you need to know about the sensibility of the film — it's about pleasing women, though the female stars are lovely enough that male viewers can enjoy it, too. In voiceover, Julian explains how his ex-girlfriend always insisted that men never know what women really want. Determined to prove her wrong, he decides to start a gigolo service with a couple of friends. In the course of servicing his clients, Julian discovers that, in fact, he doesn't understand women. It turns out women like to be pampered! And to be treated nicely! (Though, oddly, they don't mind the occasional facial cumshot.) The film serves female viewers well, with plenty of lingering shots of beautiful male bodies in all their sweaty glory, with lots of cunnilingus, some foot worship, and a brief, tasteful anal sex scene. The highlight is the final scene, where Julian gives a woman a long slow oil massage. When he's done, he stretches out on the table, and she oils him up thoroughly before fucking him. The production values aren't incredibly high, and there are some odd directorial flourishes, but nothing too distracting. The film is fairly short overall, only about 75 minutes, though the three scenes are all individually fairly long and involved. This is a good choice for couples, or for women who might be reluctant to try porn. (2007, 75 min.) Cast: Julian, Chris Cannon, Alex Sanders, Roxanne Hall, Jessica Dee, Casey Pink, Wendy Devine item NV-PUL-1522-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-pul-1522`

	Eyes of Desire Candida Royalle Femme Productions A sexually shy photographer takes a personal retreat at a friend's house, finds the house equipped with a high-powered telescope, and discovers a side of herself that is intensely voyeuristic. But the tables are turned, and she finds an exhibitionistic streak in herself as well when she realizes that she's being watched, too! Another grand outing from Candida Royalle and Femme Productions, this film has the focus on women's pleasure, the emphasis on romance, the high production values, and the relative absence of porn cliches (every sex scene doesn't end in a cum shot — imagine!) that make their work such an exceptional treat. (1998, 92 min.) Cast: Missy, Mickey G., Miss Sharon Mitchell, Tony Tedeschi, Herschel Savage, Chloe, Tom Byron item NV-FEM-2263-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-fem-2263`

	Fade to Black Paul Thomas Winner of the 2001 AVN Awards for Best Film, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress (Julie Meadows), Best Couple's Sex Scene (Taylor Hayes & Joey Ray), Best Group Sex Scene (Taylor Hayes, Taylor St. Claire, Dale DaBone), Best Non-Sex Performance (Paul Thomas), Best Editing, and Best Screenplay and the XRCO awards for Best Film and Best Actress (Taylor Hayes), this is considered by many to be Paul Thomas' best film (as director) ever. Taylor Hayes plays a rackalicious girl from Oklahoma who makes amateur porno with her boyfriend (that is, he films her having sex with other guys). When they get the call from a famous porn director (played by Paul Thomas) to come out to Hollywood, what unfolds is a dark but truly well-written (and well-acted) tale of manipulation in the porn industry. The story is engaging, the sex is enthusiastic and hot, and Taylor Hayes has the cutest, sexiest smile in the biz. This tape gets a Blowfish Recommends, especially for couples and anyone else who likes an intelligent (although entirely unromantic) story with their sex. (2001, 85 min.) Cast: Taylor Hayes, Joey Ray, Taylor St. Claire, Dale DaBone, Julie Meadows, VooDoo, Mariesa (box credit as Meriesa Arroyo), Tony Tedeschi, Adajja, Rikki Lixxx, Jason McCain, Mark Wood, Eric Everhard, and Paul Thomas (non-sex role) item NV-VIV-1131-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-viv-1131`

	Fallen Brad Armstrong Wicked Jessica Drake stars in sexual urban fantasy epic Fallen, directed by Brad Amstrong, her real-life husband (and co-star in one memorable scene). Jessica plays a guardian angel who fails to properly protect her mortal charge, and in punishment is stripped of her wings and sent to live as a mortal. In order to fill the inner void left by her expulsion from Heaven, she turns to acts of sexual excess — ultimately looking for love, but content with orgasm. Highlights include a twenty-minute orgy scene with lots of cocksucking, anal, and double penetration. (There's an extended version of the orgy scene on one of the bonus discs that goes on twice as long and actually flows better, but given the film's nearly-three-hour running time, it's understandable that they cut it down for the feature.) Jennifer Dark's boy-boy-girl three-way is yummy, too, and the fantasy flashback scene with girls in angel wings (and not much else) was hot, if a little too music-video-style with all the camera effects, filters, and quick edits. This is an epic hardcore high-gloss production with a plot (including alternate endings, so you can play God!), and at its best, it's simply heavenly. It's worth getting this deluxe edition for all the extra goodies, too. Note: The Blu-Ray version has only one bonus disc, which has Earthbound: The Making of Brad Armstrong's Fallen, Deleted Sex Scenes, Extended Orgy Scene, The sex Booths, Interview and Wicked Online. (The main disc has the Main Feature, Chapters and Alternate Endings.) Yes, the regular DVD version has more extras — including, apparently, a digital version you can throw on your MP3 player! — than the Blu-Ray version, so we thought we'd warn you ahead of time. Won the 2009 AVN Award for Best Actress (jessica drake), Best Double Penetration Sex Scene (jessica drake, Eric Masterson & Brad Armstrong), Best DVD Menus, and Best Packaging (most likely for the regular DVD version, not the Blu-Ray version).

	Girls Lie Eon McKai Vivid Alt. This is the best porn I've seen all year. If it had a bit less sex and a bit more angsty dialogue, this could have been an indie film on the festival circuit, with showings at your local art house theater — and the cinematography is actually better than that of many indie films. This is a porn movie with actual themes, in addition to lots of hot sex, and the sex scenes often serve to reveal things about the characters. This movie isn't afraid to show us chipped nail polish, heat shimmers on the asphalt, scabs on ankles, long shots of the bleak desert, the possibility of getting pregnant from one night stands, and some occasional awkward sex. All that, and it's still sexy, and authentic, and genuine. It's porn that's also actually art. From a purely prurient viewpoint, there's lots of very hot sex, and the "Vivid Alt" girls are all quite beautiful, young and pale, most tattooed and/or pierced, with natural breasts. They can also act, and have a script that requires them to act. And the four main female characters do tell lies, for a variety of reasons: Charlotte, the lovely sun-freckled blonde, secretly works as a hooker to make money to support her drug habit and her unemployed boyfriend. She's beautiful and sad as she rides her bicycle through the seamier sections of Los Angeles, flirts with liquor store clerks, and eventually picks up a trick, who turns out to be a gay guy who wants to try sex with a woman; their scene is actually one of the sweetest in the film. Riley has a boyfriend (and they have good sex together), and he thinks she has a modeling career. But when she boards a plane and goes to LA, she doesn't go to model clothes, but to make a porn film. The scenes of the porn-within-a-porn look like they're shot on VHS, complete with tracking lines — it's amazing attention to detail, and the scene is deliberately sort of awkward and disconnected, and includes an unsuccessful attempt at anal sex. (Fear not, somebody else has successful anal sex later on.) Pixie — who has a beautiful tattoo of butterfly wings on her back — picks up a guy at a punk club, and later has sex with another man in an abandoned house (they seem to be into urban exploration). She lies to herself and to her lovers. Her character is fascinating, needy and aloof by turns, and she suffers some of the most serious consequences of any character here. Dana just lies to everyone, expressing love and devotion to a series of men and using them all enthusiastically, and her sex scenes are all fun and lively despite the undertones of deception. Director Eon McKai deserves all the accolades that have been heaped upon him. He made a splash with Neu Wave Hookers, and Girls Lie is utterly different and equally groundbreaking. There are tons of bonus features (it's a three-disc set, including a soundtrack CD with lots of punk and indie rock): commentary, lots of raw behind-the-scenes footage, a brief mini-documentary about their location shooting, photo gallery, and an extra scene with Dana that runs nearly half an hour. It's a great movie. Watch and see.

	Intense Desires Eli Cross Lennox Films Intense Desires is porn for women, featuring hard-bodied men who love performing cunnilingus and posing with their six-pack abs a-glisten. In the first scene, Denis Martin plays a sex therapist... who fantasizes about fucking during his sessions. He and fantasy girl Flick Shagwell work through positions on a couch, with plenty of shots of his tight ass moving as he fucks her. When he starts paying attention to his clients again, they're telling him about their experience at a sex club — and we get a flashback to that action in a brick dungeon. It's a four-way — or, more accurately, two couples — with Kurt Lockwood and Aria on one side, and Mario Rossi and Julie Night on the other, fucking in a hanging cage. The blowjobs are very hot, and the fucking is athletic. Next Tyler Knight takes charge with his lover, petite Asian Bamboo, and they get adventurous — she wears a blindfold, and he fucks her thoroughly. They're gorgeous together. Steven St. Croix and Kimberly Kane try to spice up their marriage by doing a little roleplay, pretending to be strangers who meet in a bar and hook up — they certainly fuck on screen like they're doing it for the first time. Finally Denis makes love to Alicia Rhodes on his couch, and it's just as passionate as the others. Call this one couples-friendly with a kinky edge. Winner of the 2009 Feminist Porn Award for "Sexiest Straight Movie"! (2008, 115 min.)

	Janine Loves Jenna Vivid/ Club Jenna In Janine Loves Jenna, the title stars are out for a night on the town when their limo crashes, killing Janine. The opening sequence is animated, and it's one of the stranger cartoons you're ever likely to see. Jenna is distraught and wracked with survivor's guilt, and soon commits suicide. After dying in her bathtub, Jenna finds herself in Hell, where Janine acts as her guide, hoping to lead her up and out of the underworld. The special effects are sometimes cheesy, but no worse than those in many low-budget horror films, and the set designs are often inspired, from a café with a Deadly Sins theme to industrial platforms surrounded by fire-eaters and midgets in devil costumes, to the cool austerity of the devil's icy throne room. Many of the costumes are impressive too, from Jenna's giant leather batwings to Justin Sterling's convincing Devil costume. A lot of time, effort, and thought went into making this film, and it's inventive and ambitious. The actual sex scenes are often overshadowed by the design elements, as in the scene with Jenna and Janine having sex in an alley with men who have flames for faces; it's hard to pay attention to the fucking when there are people with hoods full of fire onscreen. Some of the dialogue is a bit tedious, too, but the essential premise of a sexual tour of the underworld is a great idea to hang a movie from, and Janine and Jenn are both in top form. (2007, 2 hr. 10 min.) Cast: Jenna Jameson, and Janine, Justine Joli, Dominica Leoni, Reno, Jerry, Manuel Ferrara, Justin Sterling, Katja Kassin, Tommy Gunn, Vincent Vega, Julian item NV-VIV-1514-DVD, dvd format: `$32.95` `v-viv-1514`

	Jesse Jane: Scream Celeste Digital Playground Jesse Jane: Scream is the latest in a series of horror movie/porn combinations, though the horror is mostly more campy than scary, presented as a series of vignettes involving haunted houses and serial killers. In the first scene, Evan Stone's car breaks down, and he investigates a nearby abandoned house, hoping to find a phone... and instead finds a roller-skating, sex-crazed Jesse Jane. They fuck roughly, wildly, and with seemingly real enthusiasm, with Jesse's mouth and cunt pounded in pretty much every possible position, and they're both thoroughly soaked with sweat by the end. The second scene is a necrophiliac serial killer fantasy... which actually manages to be hot! Brunette Faith Leon is dead in a bathtub, victim of Marco Banderas, who masturbates over her corpse while licking her earring. Then she comes back to life and fucks him. It's the fantasy of a highly deranged mind, but the blowjob is fantastic, even if the cumshot on her once-more unmoving body is creepy. The third scene is the standout, with the gorgeous duo of Madison Young and Rebeca Linares, dressed in skimpy shorts straight out of a '70s slasher flick, exploring a haunted house with Jerry, who does his best to frighten them. They respond to his teasing... by fucking him, with a great tag-team blowjob, anal (for both girls!), and plenty of girl-on-girl making out, too. Samantha Ryan is up next as a psycho obsessed with roommate Jesse Jane. After Samantha kidnaps Jesse's boyfriend (which is pretty funny), Jesse and Sam are free to get cozy on the couch. The set-up is clever, but the sex is fairly standard and brief. Micah Moore, a cute petite brunette, is next tormented by an evil.... toy ball. (Or maybe just a teasing boyfriend, played by Marco Banderas, who doesn't appear to be reprising his necrophiliac role.) It's a decent scene, if not extraordinary. Finally, Shay Jordan and Jesse stay overnight in a creepy house on a bet, only to find that the source of the strange noises is Tommy Gunn. They screw him energetically, and brunette Shay and blonde Jesse look wonderful together. This movie is funny, occasionally disturbing, and odd while being dead sexy, too.

	Kung Fu Nurses a Go-Go Volume 2 Mark Stone Wicked Kung Fu Nurses A Go-Go Volume 2 is just as silly and over-the-top as its title suggests. At it's heart, it's a slutty-nurses versus slutty-reform-school-girls movie, but the largely nonsensical plot is just an excuse for porn stars in sexy costumes to suck cock and get fucked anally and otherwise. The action begins in a hospital where Randy Spears and Marco Banderas both check in with vague medical complaints involving their genitals; the nurses subscribe to the theory of sexual healing, and so Nikki Rhodes and Aiden Starr, dressed in fetching candystriper costumes, attempt to suck the poison out. (There's also the occasional duel using crutches and oversized syringes, because kung fu go-go dancing nurses are fierce.) Nick Manning plays a kung fu master/strip club DJ who recruits reform school girl Marie Luv to defeat the nurses in a dance off (or something like that); the lovely Marie on her knees in a short skirt will help you forgive the incomprehensible plot. There's lots of other nurse-on-patient action, and the climactic stripper competition turns into a lesbian three-way with a vast array of sex toys employed to impressive effect. While it's a little light on the kung fu, this silly gonzo extravaganza excels in the arena of hot women in slutty costumes fucking enthusiastically. It's just what the doctor ordered.

	Layout Thomas, Paul Vivid Layout is good porn, but even better, it's a good movie. Director Paul Thomas is at his sharpest, wittiest, and most inventive as he examines the subject he knows best: the adult movie business. Most of the action centers around the staff and subjects of Adult Video Guide, a fictional trade journal for the adult industry (based loosely on the real-life Adult Video News). Layout is a complexly layered collage of a film, featuring interesting characters drawn from various spheres of the adult movie business: jaded editors, has-been porn stars trying to make a comeback, sleazy boyfriend/managers, vicious up-and-coming starlets, idealistic young writers, and more. Penny Flame is the cold heart of the film, playing a well-educated junior editor who lost track of her humanity at some point, and who uses her influence to seduce starlets hungry for fame. Flame's presence is the most striking thing here, but the other actors do a great job too, including Briana Banks as a bitchy porn superstar, Tom Byron as the long-suffering AVG editor, Tyce Bune as the totally insane publisher, and Kylie Ireland as a self-assured former star getting back into the business. There's humor — the backstage glimpses of porn sets are amusing, and some of the fictional movies-within-the-movie are hilarious, especially the delightfully cheesy costume drama "The Three Muskatettes." The dialogue is smart, the staging of the sex scenes is inventive, and the characters are compelling. The sex scenes are also very good, and absolutely hardcore — there's lots of anal, some DP, and quite a bit of bondage, most of the latter featuring Penny Flame, who plays both the binder and the bound at various points. A good story and great sex — who could ask for anything more? There's also a bonus disc with lots of extras, notably a long behind the scenes featurette. This is the best, most creative work Paul Thomas has done in a while. Winner of the 2008 AVN film awards for Best Actress (Penny Flame), Best Actor (Tom Byron), Best Supporting Actress (Kylie Ireland), Best Director (Paul Thomas), Best Couples Sex Scene, (Penny Flame & Tom Byron), Best Oral Sex Scene (Kylie Ireland), and Best Screenplay (Phil Noir)!

	Looking In Paul Thomas Vivid A couple trying to start over after a breakup move into a new house. Turns out the whole neighborhood is obsessed with peeping on each other and being watched while they have sex and they all want to help the new couple expand and improve their sex life too. Now that's what we call right neighborly values! The performers are all attractive and can act, and the story, while sometimes feeling a bit surreal, holds together. Most of the sex is enthusiastic and really does feel like the characters are getting off on showing off, including a surprise for mainstream porno — a mild hot wax scene. Our reviewers thoroughly enjoyed the two group scenes, in particular. If you've ever thought about checking out your cute neighbors who never bother to close the curtains or you get turned on by the idea the neighbors seeing you doing it through the living room windows but are too timid to go through with it, maybe this movie will let you blow off a little steam, so to speak. Won 2004 AVN Awards for Best Actress (Savanna Samson), Best Supporting Actor (Steven St. Croix), and Best Group Sex Scene. Nominated for the 2003 XRCO award for Best Film. (2002, 107 min.)

	The New Devil in Miss Jones Paul Thomas Vivid Videos In a word, Awesome. It completely dominated the AVN awards winning every award it could possibly win; and while that doesn't always impress us, in this case it's well deserved. It's basically a real movie, with real plot, real dialogue, and pretty darn good acting. If you took the sex scenes out you could probably show it in a movie theater. But you definitely would not want to take out the sex scenes, because they are insanely hot, including a believable dungeon SM scene and a scorching girl on girl scene. The sex is so epic that after a while you start thinking, "Oh my god, another orgy, haven't there been enough already?" You already know the plot; Miss Jones is a virgin suicide who gets sent straight to hell despite her clean living ways, suicide being a sin and all. She begs the devil for another go at life and gets her wish with the caveat that she has to start getting it on well and often. Director Paul Thomas throws in a few twists of his own but basically sticks with the original idea. Savanna Samson plays Miss Jones and she spends a good deal of the movie looking adorable in granny panties and no make up. Jenna Jameson is the devil, and I probably don't have to tell you that she is smoking hot. It comes with tons of extras including a copy of the original 1972 version of The Devil in Miss Jones, which is a fantastic film in its own right. Won the 2006 AVN Award for Best Film, Best Art Direction-Film, Best Cinematography, Best Editing-Film, Best Screenplay-Film, Best Director-Film (Paul Thomas), Best Actress-Film (Savanna Samson), Best Supporting Actress-Film (Jenna Jameson).

	O: The Power of Submission Ernest Greene Adam & Eve Pauline Réage's classic erotic novel Histoire d'O (The Story of O in its English translation) spawned countless imitators and provided the basis for many a film adaptation. The most recent, O: The Power of Submission featuring the delectably voluptuous Carmen Luvana as O, is incredibly hot, combining all the sexy bondage and dominance/submission mind games with serious hardcore sex, while remaining pretty faithful to the story and the enigmatic character of O herself. The story: O is a photographer (in this case a fetish photographer for a website) who plays sex games with her lover, Ray (Tommy Gunn), who enjoys tying her up and cutting her clothes off and generally dominating her, though in a very loving way. He convinces O to go into temporary service at a house where beautiful, willing female slaves get whipped and sexually satisfy male and female guests (the house is not explicitly called Roissy in this version, and it's more a nice California house than a French country mansion, but no matter). O likes this deeper submission, and Ray tests her love for him by giving her to his half-brother Stephen (Evan Stone), who is a much harsher master than Ray — the other slaves first train O with a rather impressive butt-plug so she can take Stephen's anal attentions. Stephen takes ever more control of O's life, plays mind games with her, and even enlists O into setting Ray up with another woman, a rather vapid fetish model, so Stephen can have O to himself forever. Through it all, Carmen Luvana plays O as cool, aloof, impossible to really break — she's perfectly obedient, but always holds something of herself back. That's the central, fascinating ambiguity of O as a literary character, and the actress conveys it beautifully (though her acting is rather wooden when she has to deliver lines). Tommy Gunn's performance as Ray is wonderful — his love for O, tinged with sadness, comes through clearly. Nina Hartley (reputedly quite a BDSM aficionado in real life) does the voiceover narration, and her husband Ernest Greene directs. It's one of the more authentic-feeling BDSM movies ever made, with good whip technique and plausible action — no half-hearted flogging here! All the accoutrements are lovely; great collars, great whips, great restraints, hot lingerie — yum. There's plenty of decent bondage porn out there, but this is a cut above. It combines a classic story with lush performances, a cast that seems to care about the product, good production values, and — it must be said — Carmen Luvana's astonishingly gorgeous breasts. The bonus disc has a long interview with the director, trailers, a photo gallery, and a couple of bonus scenes from other movies. (2006, 165 min) Cast: Carmen Luvana, Dragon Lilly, Tommy Gunn, Todd Driller, Kylie Ireland, Angelina Black, Tyler Knight, Van Damage, Shayla LaVeaux, Johnny Castle, Evan Stone, Justine Joli, Monica Sweetheart; Nina Hartley (non-sex) item NV-PHE-1475-DVD, dvd format: `$27.95` `v-phe-1475`

	One Size Fits All Candida Royalle Femme Productions This is a darling little romp, proving that comedy and serious sex can mix without slapstick. Five gorgeous women, including the marvelous Nina Hartley, discover in classic farce fashion that they've all owned/worn the same little purple dress — most of them as a gift from the same man! From their memories of the "first encounter" through the revenge they seek, all the heated sex anyone could want is provided. Reminiscent of a 1960's bedroom comedy, but this time they left in all the good scenes! Definitely a couple's film, Femme Productions comes through again with a story that entertains, a pace that most women will find appealing, and enough good-looking stars of both sexes to keep all parties glued to the screen. Winner of the 1998 AVN Safe Sex Award. (1997, 79 min.)

	Paging Betty Jim Enright VCA Paging Betty is a flick from the mid-'90s, vaguely based on the life of fetish pin-up model Bettie Page. The tale is told within a rather sweet frame story — Betty's grown daughter discovers her mom's old pictures, and asks about her wild times as a model in the '50s. The bulk of the film is flashbacks, and the first sex scene is Betty's roommate working as a hooker to make ends meet. That scene is fairly standard stuff, but things get more interesting when Betty goes for an audition with a schlock B-movie producer (he does films like "Attack of the Gopher People") — it's a pretty funny scene, especially Betty's line reading as Queen of the Gopher People, and when it inevitably moves into casting couch territory, Betty runs away, her sensibilities thoroughly shocked. (We get a sex scene anyway when the director calls in his very hardworking secretary.) Desperate for money, Betty goes into business with her roommate, picking up a little cash by watching her fuck an exhibitionist John. Then they get a gig doing pin-up photographs, posing in lingerie, and it's a cute sequence with fake spanking and hair pulling. The two celebrate their success by making out, and we finally get a sex scene with Betty, albeit girl-girl. Next Betty pays her rent with a blowjob — well, gets an extension, anyway — and then agrees to make a porn film to earn some much-needed money. The sex is good, the writing is way above average, and there are some clever plot twists all the way through. Worth a look, especially if you're a Bettie Page fan (though there's no fetish action, alas). (1994, 77 min.) Cast: Selina St. Claire, Jasper, Leena, Sean Rider, Ona Zee, Bridgette Ami, Chante, E.Z.

	Painful Lessons Oren Cohen Pink Box/Abigail Productions Painful Lessons tells the sad tale of Kelli Leigh and her girlfriend Annabelle Lee, a college girl who's grown bored with her sugar mama. Kelli pays Annabelle's tuition and puts a roof over her head, but adorable Annabelle would rather run off with her hot young classmates (including the equally yummy Aiden Starr). Annabelle's friend Charlie Lane tries to tell Annabelle how good she has it, and decides to get into Kelli's good graces herself — either from a desire to take Annabelle's place as pampered housegirl or for simple MILF-loving gratification — and they manage an impressive array of positions on and around the kitchen counters. Annabelle cheats on Kelli, and Kelli cheats on Annabelle (rather flagrantly with Adrianna Nicole, who's always a pleasure to watch), and the sex scenes are all impressively passionate and charged with a bit of a transgressive edge — most of these couplings are revenge-fucks, after all, and the emotional subtext comes through. Eventually sweet young Annabelle and MILFy Kelli come together in bed, but is their undeniable sexual chemistry enough to affect a reconciliation? Watch and see. Painful Lessons is a pleasure (2008, 83 min.) Cast: Kelly Leigh, Annabelle Lee, Aiden Starr, Charlie Lane, Adrianna Nicole item NV-PBP-1664-DVD, dvd format: `$24.95` `v-pbp-1664`

	Perfect Creatures Eli Cross Sex-Z Perfect Creatures is another take on the venerable theme of creating the perfect lover, this time with a science-fictional bent. Sophia is a scientist disappointed one too many times by ordinary human lovers, and the breaking point comes when fiancee Chris Cannon betrays her by fucking Dana DeArmond. In revenge, Sophia take matters into her own technologically-savvy hands and creates the perfect man in the form of Christian, an android designed to be the ultimate sex toy. Her lab assistant Julie Knight gets on in the action, and Sophia even takes her creation to a dungeon sex club for a seven-person (and one android!) orgy that provides a suitably over-the-top climax, with lots and lots of anal sex. Of course, "perfection" is in the eye of the beholder, and there are some things even a perpetually pliant and obedient sex slave can't provide... but that message doesn't overwhelm the smut.

	Rawhide Nicholas Steele Ultimate Pictures Beautiful photography, beautiful actors, and a beautiful plot... what more can you want from a porn movie? The plot's a good western one: A rancher's daughter sweeps into her father's spread, looking to sell out and cash in. The hands actually doing the work don't much take to that idea... but just how far are they willing to go to stop it? The production values are great (it was shot on HD, and well-rewards a huge monitor), the acting is good, and the script isn't just a way to get from one sex scene to another. The sex has the usual set of porn conventions (some anal, some facials), but it's also often lovemaking rather than just fucking. And with three disks, this could be the excuse you've needed to get a multidisk DVD changer. It won a bunch of 2004 AVN Awards, including Best Video Feature (in a tie with Beautiful), Best High-Definition Production, Best Supporting Actress/Video (Brooke Ballentyne), Best Videography (and, boy, did it deserve that one), and Best DVD Packaging (ditto). It also was nominated for, and apparently nearly won, the 2003 XRCO award for Best Video. And as if that wasn't enough, the J. T./Steven St. Croix scene was nominated for an XRCO Award for Best Sex Scene, Couple. (2003, 160 min.) Cast: Carmen Luvana, Brooke Balentyne, Taylor Rain, Olivia del Rio, J.

	Sex Cult Scenesters Alan Schiele Spice Studios Sex Cult Scenesters is a pulpy, lurid, hilarious look into the lives of an out-of-control sex-crazed girl gang whose members live to fuck and fuck to live. Any film like this needs an outside viewpoint character to enter and explore the strange new subculture for us, and that's cute girl-next-door Roma, fresh to a new city and a new scene. While she's moping in the bathroom at a club, dark-haired hipster Nadia Nitro drags a boy from the band into the stall next door and proceeds to blow him (and go on from there). When the two catch Roma peeking over the divider, they burst in and press her into service to suck him off and take his cumshot. Roma can't stop thinking about the fun she had, and she seeks out the tattooed coterie of Sex Cult Scenesters — each of whom has her own humorous and violent backstory. Roma finds and follows Kayden Faye, who auditions her in a hot girl-girl scene, and the rest of the movie follows Roma's descent into the sexual underworld. Tattoo-parlor anal three-ways, barroom orgies, and consensual sexual harassment in the workplace all follow. Don't come looking for tender romance, but if you like wild fucking and wild abandon with pierced-and-tattooed hot girls, this is the sex cult scene for you. (2008, 117 min.)

	Sex Pix Red Light District Sex Pix combines raunchy sex with an engaging plot and pretty good acting, making it one of the best films in recent memory. Cheryl (Sunny Lane) wakes up in a messy room with a head wound, with no memory of who she is or where she is or why she's mostly naked, with only an angry naked bandaged cowboy for company (played by Evan Stone, in a role that won him an AVN Award for best actor). She discovers a pile of Polaroid photos of herself engaged in various sex acts, which disturbs her. When she tries to find out what's going on, the cowboy gets furious and hits her, she breaks a bottle and stabs him in the neck, and he dies. And that's just the beginning — or, more accurately, the end. The film proceeds in a series of flashbacks in reverse chronological order, running back through the past couple of days to gradually reveal who the angry naked cowboy is, who Cheryl really is, and how she lost her memory. (Yes, the gimmick is stolen from the movie Memento, but it's put to original use here.) Red Light District is known for its hardcore, sometimes gonzo and over-the-top, movies, and they combine that rough-riding aesthetic with a feature-film plot to great effect here. Put simply, the sex is incredibly hot. Sunny Lane excels in all her scenes, and she can play innocent amnesiac or experienced sex kitten with equal aplomb. The big orgy scene — featuring three guys and six women — looks fun and spontaneous, with lots of partner-swapping and stunt-fucking, and Hillary Scott's anal scenes are amazing. Alektra Blue and Tyla Wynn do a wet and wonderful girl-on-girl shower scene in a fetish club, and then some guys join in, and it gets even better. There are half a dozen long scenes, ranging from over-the-top action to a dungeon fetish scene to a rather sweet scene between Kurt Lockwood and Sunny. Overall, this is a raunchy movie — there's hard anal, ATM, dp, cum-swapping, rough blowjobs, the whole shebang — but everyone involved seems to be seriously into it. Highly recommended. Extras include good commentaries from Sunny and director James Avalon, a long behind-the-scenes feature, a so-so bonus scene, bloopers, a big photo gallery, etc. (2006, 2 hrs. 40 min.) Cast: Sunny Lane, Kelly Wells, Isabella Stanza, Evan Stone, Hillary Scott, Staci Thorn, Gia, Luccia, Mr. Marcus, Tee Reel, Dominica Leoni, Tyla Wynn, Alektra Blue, Manuel Ferrara, Haley Paige, Veronica Jett, Erik Everhard, Brett Rockman, Kurt Lockwood item NV-RLD-1480-DVD, dvd format: `$21.95` `v-rld-1480`

	Sordid Paul Thomas Vivid Sordid wastes no time: there's a busty blonde in thigh-high stockings getting fucked in an office during the opening credits, and within five minutes we're into our first full scene, with a brunette in corset, garters, stockings, and heels getting her hands bound behind her back while her master spanks and paddles her; the arms-bound blowjob is especially hot, if too brief, and he comes on her while she wears nipple clamps. For the first twenty minutes, there's no plot, and precious little in the way of set-up, just one scene after another of the same guy getting it on with various women, including two blondes making out together before he takes turns fucking them. When we do get a glimpse of main character Eric Price's inner life, we see a narcissist who loves to fuck without giving anything of himself away in the process. He meets his match with brunette headliner Cassidey, and finds himself falling in love. Their happy domesticity is tested when they get involved in swinging and orgies, something which appeals to her, but not so much to him. The ending is rather abrupt, and doesn't really resolve their differences, but the film does finish with an excellent anal sex scene, so there are consolations for the lack of narrative completion. Five good bonus scenes — four of which feature Cassidey — help make this a generous package. (2000, 91 min.) Cast: Cassidey, Taylor St. Claire, Meriesa, Dale Dabone, Egypt, Eric Price, T.J. Cummings, Sky Taylor, Maya Divine item NV-VIV-1177-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-viv-1177`

	Space Nuts Jonathan Morgan Wicked Pictures Jonathan Morgan knows how to make funny movies. He also knows how to make very sexy movies. In this case, he has made a very funny, very sexy movie, with really fun special effects. (Note how we are not saying "out of this world" at any point in this review. Ooops.) Anyway, this is a simply great movie, with tons of good sex, good special effects, and lots of very good jokes. It doesn't just parody Star Wars: Morgan works in jokes on Aliens, Star Trek, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and even Gladiator. The plot? Oh, you know the drill: Rebels fighting for good. Evil Galactic Overlords. Sexy princesses. Buff heros. Appliance makeup so good you could just eat it. A simply hilarious performance by Randy Spears as an android. Blue-skinned alien women having sex with Evan Stone. Lots and lots of sex of all kinds, in fact. The usually completely-dopey "multiple angle" feature is put to very good use here: you can see a live commentary track on the main disk. And it comes with an entire DVD-worth of extras: Tons of "making-of" things (casting call, cold readings, etc., etc.), etc., etc. It's a seriously hefty package. Ready for the award list? Take a deep breath: The 2004 AVN Awards for Best Sex Comedy, Best DVD Extras, Best DVD Menus, Best Actor/Video (Evan Stone), Best Supporting Actor/Video (Randy Spears), and Best Special Effects. The 2003 XRCO Awards for Best Comedy or Parody, Best Single Performance/Actor (Randy Spears), and a nomination for Best DVD.

	Speakeasy Courtney Trouble Reel Queer Speakeasy is a fun queer period piece shot mostly in black and white (except for full-color sex scenes), set in the underground club of the title. Writer/director Courtney Trouble has burst onto the indie porn scene with several fantastically fun and edgy films, and this is no exception. First among femmes is blonde cutie Lorelei Lee, who always brings a playful energy to her roles, never more so than here, pushed against the wall by the butch Tomcat. There's a little roughness — some choking, some ass-slapping — but there's also plenty of laughter, and Lorelei's ecstatic thrashings look totally genuine. Other high points include Jiz Lee (looking adorable in a newsboy cap) bound and hoisted for rope suspension bondage by Dallas Fivestar. There's also crazy boi-on-boi bartender sex, with Cyd and (the aptly named) Mustache Malone taking turns bending one another over and putting their strap-ons to good and varied use. The final scene with Billy Castro and Lorelei features lots of energetic strap-on sucking and riding, and overall, the flick is non-stop queer fun. Give it a try — what could be easier? (2009, 76) Cast: Billy Castro, Jiz Lee, Dallas Fivestar, Lorelei Lee item NV-GRL-1762-DVD, dvd format: `$23.95` `v-grl-1762`

	Taken Veronica Hart Taken is another fine film directed by Veronica Hart which happens to hit all of the elements that we look for in a Couple's Video (see the top of the Couple's Videos section to see what those are). It's a plot-oriented, romance novel-type story of a rich housewife/mother (Ginger Lynn) who's kidnapped by a stranger (Evan Stone, looking very Fabio — even wearing a white ruffled shirt in one scene) and kept captive until she falls in love with him. The film is mostly populated with performers approaching (or in the case of Hirschel Savage, about to leave) their forties, but they're all quite fit and attractive and still very sexy to watch. The sex, at times fast and even a bit rough, at other times gentle and slow, is all skillfully shot and edited together to show both the passion and personalities of the characters. In addition to some grand sexual performances, particularly from Ginger Lynn and from Alexandra Silk (in her scene with Herschel Savage), the story is also well-acted in the plot scenes, winning Ginger Lynn the Best Actress and Herschel Savage the Best Supporting Actor awards from AVN. (In case you care, Ginger Lynn's hair in the film looks nothing like her hair on the box cover, except for being blond.) (2001, 140 min.) Cast: Ginger Lynn, Evan Stone, Rebecca Lord, Kelsey, Adajja, Alexandra Silk, Herschel Savage, Tyler Wood, Lexington Steele, and Randy Spears item NV-VCA-1135-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-vca-1135`

	Tell Me What You Want Jonathan Morgan Wicked Pictures Jonathan Morgan made his name making fun, light pictures... which this is not. However, he is still one of the best and most imaginative directors working in porn. The plot is not complicated: Missy plays an artist who becomes sexually involved, and sexually obsessed, with Mickey G.'s mystery man. He feeds her libido, and she his, and their sex play becomes more intense each time... But if the sex is hotter and hotter each time, what happens when your libido pushes you over a limit you didn't mean to cross? This movie has lots to recommend it: The sexual chemistry between Missy and Mickey G. is terrific; you do not doubt for a second that they are hot for each other. Missy is sizzling, while not being or trying to look like she's still 19. The sex scenes themselves are beautifully shot. This is a great couple's film, if what the couple in question is looking for is something intense and very, very sexual. We loved it. The "making of" extras on the DVD are funny as hell, too. (2002) Cast: Missy, Mickey G., Kelsey Heart, Mr. Marcus, Ian Daniels, Kyle Stone, Michael J. Cox item NV-WKD-1050-DVD, dvd format: `$28.95` `v-wkd-1050`

	The Oracle François Clousot Wicked The Oracle features Kaylani Lei in the title role, as a fake psychic with a con-artist boyfriend. They make a living ripping off the grief-stricken... until she encounters the genuinely supernatural in the form of a magical medallion that allows her to speak with (and sexually pleasure!) the dead. Kaylani is a decent actress in the non-porn parts and a phenomenal performer for the more graphic sections. The opening scene with her scumbag boyfriend (Barrett Blade) shows off her impressive oral skills, and the film gets more intense as it goes on, with a couple of excellent three-ways (Roxy DeVille and Brooke Haven are especially hot in their scene with Randy Spears, dispenser of afterlife wisdom). The last scene ups the ante even more, with Keylani press-ganged into pleasuring three ghosts (Chris Cannon, India Summer, and, Marcus London); there's a lot of energy, and it's a fine finish to a film that's watchable plot-wise and extremely satisfying in terms of titillation. If you like your porn with a ghostly twist, The Oracle is to die for. (2008, 84 min.) Cast: Barrett Blade, Brooke Banner, Brooke Haven, Chris Cannon, Derrick Pierce, Eva Angelina, India Summer, Kaylani Lei, Marcus London, Randy Spears, Roxy DeVille, Ryder Skye item NV-WKD-1603-DVD, dvd format: `$28.95` item NV-WKD-1603-BLU, blu-ray format: `$51.95` `v-wkd-1603`

	The Wild Search Shine Louise Houston Pink and White/Blowfish Video The Wild Search is from indie auteur Shine Louise Houston, whose earlier releases The Crash Pad and Superfreak garnered her accolades from feminist porn fans and queers of various persuasions. Like her previous movies, The Wild Search is a tour-de-force of lesbian sex, featuring lots of hot butches and femmes from the San Francisco area. This is the pure product. There are no gay-for-pay bottle blondes with scary fake fingernails engaged in perfunctory open-mouthed tongue kissing here — except in a brief, hilarious scene that parodies such moments in mainstream porn movies. The basic premise is clever and used to very funny effect. A documentary film crew follows around another documentary film crew as they attempt to film the mating habits of San Francisco lesbians. So The Wild Search is a (fake) documentary about a (fake) documentary about (real) lesbians. (Follow all that?) Imagine one of those National Geographic programs, with cameras watching lions from the distance, only instead of lions, they're watching lesbians. The fundamental joke is that the people having sex don't notice the camera crew in their apartment or in the bar, and there's a really funny bit of business with a "decoy lesbian," a mannequin dressed up and sent out to attract the natives. All that's cute and innovative, but what about the sex? This is a film made by and for lesbians, but given the tastes of most heterosexual men, they're likely to enjoy this, too, and it might even dispel some silly misconceptions about how women have sex. (Short answer: they have sex in all sorts of awesome ways.) The sex scenes are often really intense, especially a long three-way with two women wearing strap-ons. The most important thing: this is real fucking, messy, gasping, sweaty, improvisational, impetuous, spirited, and beautiful. It's a very funny mockumentary, but there's nothing mock about the sex. Don't miss it. Winner of Best Trans Sex Scene at the 2007 Feminist Porn Awards! (Note: This movie was previously entitled In Search of the Wild Kingdom.) Watch the trailer! (QuickTime format). If you are looking for even more wonderfulness from Shine Louise, be sure to check out The Crash Pad Series, the on-going web site show. It's like TV, only there's always something on. (2007, 65 min.) Cast: Beau Flex, Trouble Royale, Rozen DeBowe, Dylan Ryon, Wil Thrustwell, Papi Coxxx. item NV-BVI-1491-DVD, dvd format: `$29.95` `v-bvi-1491`

	This Ain't Star Trek XXX Axel Braun Hustler This Ain't Star Trek XXX is a kind of erotic love letter to the classic original series of Star Trek. The sets are lovingly designed, the costumes are beautifully recreated (complete with miniskirts for the ladies!), and the casting is mostly top notch. Evan Stone (who cut his signature long hair for the role) is perfect as Captain Kirk, since he's the closest thing the porn world has to the scenery-chewing antics of William Shatner, and Nick Manning does an equally impressive turn as villainous genetic superman Khan Noonien Singh (originally played by Ricardo Montelban). Trek fans will recognize the story as a retelling of the classic episode "Space Seed" — but with lots of extra sex, including great performances by Aurora Snow, Jenna Haze, Sasha Grey, and Jada Fire (as Uhura). When Khan releases a deadly virus that can only be cured by a massive release of endorphins, the crew has no choice but to fraternize intimately in pursuit of life-saving orgasms. Clever, funny, affectionate, and charming, this is likely the best Star Trek porn ever made. Recommended. (2009, 120 min.) Cast: Jenna Haze, Tony Desergio, Aurora Snow, Nick Manning, Sasha Grey, Evan Stone, Codi Carmichael, Cheyne Collins, Jada Fire item NV-HUS-1733-DVD, dvd format: `$25.95` `v-hus-1733`

	Under the Covers Candida Royalle Adam & Eve Under the Covers is a funny, sweet film from gifted director Candida Royale. It opens with newlywed Richard Range filming his wife Sativa Verte as she does a little striptease for him in lingerie. Turns out the filming is an assignment from their sex therapist, Charly Carlyle, and next up we see Charly being interviewed by a reporter doing a story about "Modern-day Aphrodites" — women who embrace porn and sex. It's largely a film about secret lives. For one, Charly insists in an interview that the size of a man's cock doesn't matter, but then she heads to a sex shop and we find out otherwise when Charly picks up a nice big toy — and later she orders a well-endowed male prostitute off the internet. The cute girl behind the counter at the sex shop (Erika Kole) turns out to be an abstinence advocate who's gone undercover to infiltrate the world of sex-obsessed heathens — but she's tempted by the toys. The reporter visits a dominatrix (Syren), and there's girl-girl sex with a strap-on, caning, and various flavors of BDSM. Finally, a masquerade sex party allows guests to act on their true urges while in disguise... though there might be a little embarrassment when the masks come off. It's a sexy, funny flick, well worth watching, and good for couples or people just looking for smarter-than-your-average porn. (2007, 85 min.) Cast: Syren, Lisa Ann, Sativa Verte, Richard Range, Primo, Charly Carlyle, Erika Kole, Maria Ritani, Johnny Dannon, Tyler Marciano, Jamye Waan, Andre Trauberg, Michele Capozzi item NV-PHE-1627-DVD, dvd format: `$27.95` `v-phe-1627`

	Unfaithful 2 Viv Thomas LezLove Video Unfaithful 2 is art-house girl-girl porn with brains, heart, and — most importantly — sensual, believable, delectable lesbian sex. (Don't let the #2 in the title worry you; this is a prequel, so no previous experience is necessary to enjoy the story.) The scenes are languid and decadent, with lots of deep kisses, slow explorations, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy yummy gorgeous bodies on display. The film centers on Lisa, a passionate (if not terribly faithful) lover of women, first in a scene with the exotically gorgeous Mya Diamond, who is even more lovely when she strips down to nothing but thigh-high stockings and opens her legs for Lisa's eager tongue. Next Lisa meets Nelly, a leggy waitress who turns out to be a virgin, though not for long; the seduction is initially gentle and tentative but grows increasingly passionate, and their chemistry is incandescent. Nelly experiments with another friend, the lusciously kissable Ariel, but in the end returns to Lisa for a final reconnection that sets the screen on fire. This is two hours of gorgeous lipstick lesbians making love with natural intensity. Highly recommended. (2008, 117 min.) Cast: Nelly, Lisa, Ariel, Mya Diamond, Peaches item NV-LLV-1717-DVD, dvd format: `$22.95` `v-llv-1717`

	Upload: Collector's Edition Eli Cross SexZ Pictures Upload is, simply, the single best porn feature of the past year. It's a science fiction epic, a study in obsession and addiction, and marries a hardcore gonzo style with plenty of BDSM and edgeplay with the kind of high production values that are seldom seen in porn at all. Director Eli Cross is doing what porn creators have been trying to do since at least the '70s: making a hardcore porn movie that's also simply a good movie. With a running time over four hours on two discs (with two more discs of extras, including extensive behind-the-scenes material), it's impossible to enumerate all the sex scenes, or even convey the plot, but basically Eva Angelina plays an agent for a secret government organization devoted to policing the black market in "sims," devices that people can slide into jacks on their necks, and which allow them to experience perfectly lifelike simulations and recordings of the experiences of others. Eva's actually addicted to the very sims she's supposed to be fighting. Add in her straight-arrow partner (Derrick Pierce) and anal queen Hillary Scott as a fugitive on a quest, and there's plenty of plot, and it's good enough to merit actually watching. Though no one could blame you if you skipped ahead to the smutty parts — Hillary being gangbanged by five guys at once, say, or Lorelei Lee, Madison Young, and Adrianna engaging in some decidedly hardcore girl-on-girl-on-girl, or Kylie Ireland, Delilah Strong, and Derrick Pierce with a menage-a-trois that takes place in a virtual-reality black-and-white detective story (complete with a vintage vibrator!). There are a dozen sex scenes in all, from BDSM to anal to DP to cum-swapping to, well, you get the picture. It's not heartless soulless gonzo stunt-fucking for the sake of shock, either — the over-the-top scenes are actually earned by the story, and the actors really sell it. Upload is a tour-de-force. It's a work of pornographic genius. It's a work of art. Winner of the 2008 AVN video award for Best Actress (Eva Angelina), Best Supporting Actress (Hillary Scott), Best DVD Extras, Best Non-Sex Performance (Bryn Pryor), Best Screenlay (Alvin Edwards and Eli Cross), Best Solo Sex Scene (Eva Angelina), Best Special Effects, and Best Video Feature. Whew! Note: This is the Collector's Edition, which is about 13 minutes shorter than the Director's Cut we previously carried and does not have the fisting, pissing or more hardcore BDSM moments that the Director's Cut did. Our apologies; the Justice Department is getting all uppity about fisting again, and we cannot at this time carry the more hardcore version. (2007, 271 min.) Cast: Eva Angelina, Sandra Romain, Evan Stone, Hillary Scott, Marco Banderas, Jenner, Brian Surewood, Tee Real, Alec Knight, Julie Night, Adrianna Nicole, Alex Sanders, Flick Shagwell, Michelle Ashton, Lorelei Lee, Madison Young, Bryn Pryor, Trina Michaels, Derrick Pierce, Kylie Ireland, Delilah Strong, James Deen, Marsha Lord, Kayden Faye, Faye Runaway, Aden Starr, Veronica Rayne, Carly Parker, Shannon Kelly, Mark Davis, Christian, Tyler Knight, Sledgehammer, Alex Gonz, Justice Young item NV-SXZ-1609-DVD, dvd format: `$37.95` `v-sxz-1609`

	Velvet Tension: Stroke of Genius Inpulse Pictures Velvet Tension: Stroke of Genius is porn by and for straight women, with plenty of hot, well-hung beefcake and an emphasis on handjobs (the subtitle "stroke of genius" is apt). Tattooed, muscular Julian is the leading man, playing a real estate agent who makes a bet with a friend that he can go a week without having sex. Apparently, "sex" means penetration in this case, because within moments he's naked in a pool with the blonde house appraiser, making out, before retiring to poolside lounge chairs for a little teasing with fruit and, finally, a lingering handjob. No blowjob, no penetrative sex, just hands, and that's pretty much the repeated motif here, though there's some toy play for the ladies, some mutual masturbation scenes (including a nice one in a shower, where we see what the maid and butler in a mansion do on their afternoon off), even a brief foot-job and some toe-sucking for you foot fetishists out there. There are no facial cumshots in this film — half the time the guys come on their own bellies and chests, the other times on the breasts of their female co-stars, and the women are in control the whole time. There are lots of long, lingering shots of big hard cocks, cocks being soaped up, cocks underwater, cocks straining against tight boxer-briefs, and so on. This is an unusual film — the total lack of intercourse or blowjobs is mind-blowingly rare in mainstream porn — but it's pretty, the guys are hot, the ladies are easy on the eyes too, and, oh, did we mention the big throbbing wet hard cocks? (2007, 90 min.) Cast: Julian, Jack Lawrence, Mario Rossi, JoeyRay, Katie Morgan, Tyla Wynn, Eve Lawrence, Jolean, Ava Ramon item NV-PUL-1517-DVD, dvd format: `$19.95` `v-pul-1517`

	Wedding Bell Blues Jonathan Morgan Wicked Pretty brunette Kirsten Price has the makings of a real star, and she has a lot of fun in Wedding Bell Blues, where she plays a bride with a serious case of wedding-day-jitters. She loves her fiancé (Chris Cannon), but she has some concerns... mainly that, after getting married, she won't be able to fulfill her sexual fantasies. (She even has a "Fuck It List" — as opposed to a Bucket List — of things she'd like to do before her life "ends" with marriage.) Like fucking Justice Young in a bar in Mexico, a fantasy we soon see dramatized. Her family and bridesmaids try to reassure her, rather ineptly, with Nicole Sheridan (improbably cast as Kirsten's mother) telling her a story of fucking a black man (Sean Michaels) before her own wedding. Nicole is cute in pink lingerie, and Michaels enjoys her thoroughly, with a fantastic blowjob. Samantha Sin tells a story about hiking with her husband in a forest known to harbor a serial killer — she gets off on danger, and Dane Cross takes advantage. She's a very expressive actress, and it's a nice scene. Randy Spears, as her priest, tells about his depraved past... as a cross-dressing stripper. Yes, Randy Spears in a wig and schoolgirl skirt, giving a woman in boy-drag a lapdance. It's extremely silly, but soon his client is on her knee sucking him off. We skip over the wedding ceremony itself and go straight to the honeymoon. Kirsten's fears are proved boundless, as her husband is sufficiently passionate... and Kirsten's wedding-night lingerie is breathtaking. This is a lighthearted, often funny film with some good scenes and a lovely cast. Ask not for whom the wedding bell tolls; it tolls for thee. (2008, 88 min.) Cast: Kirsten Price, Ann Marie Rios, Nicole Sheridan, Samantha Sin, Chris Cannon, Dane Cross, Justice Young, Randy Spears, Sean Michaels item NV-WKD-1637-DVD, dvd format: `$28.95` `v-wkd-1637`

	Whack Job Stormy Daniels Wicked Whack Job is a criminal comedy directed by Stormy Daniels, providing a nice balance of hot sex, ludicrous plot, over-the-top scenery-chewing acting, and silliness; it's diverting enough to keep watching even when no one's fucking onscreen, though the filmmakers have the good sense not to make you wait too long between sex scenes. Roxy DeVille is the daughter of a crime boss, being cheated on by her feckless boyfriend Derrick Pierce. She asks her daddy to have her boyfriend killed, but he declines, and she takes matters into her own hand, recruiting a team of bumbling assassins who rather spectacularly fail in their commission. Standout sex scenes include Derrick with the adorable, tight Kaylani Lei, who shimmers beautifully with sweat; a fun mobster orgy with various wiseguys and an assortment of comely wenches earning their night's pay on their backs and on their knees; Roxy and Tommy Gunn's pairing, with Roxy's usual exceptional energy and dirty talk; and the mob boss's busty trophy wife getting some on the side. The final scene, with Roxy and Derrick romping all over the kitchen, is an exceptional meeting of two formidable talents having the time of their lives. It all adds up to a few laughs and a lot of hot fucking, and who could ask for more? Cast: Roxy DeVille, Alexa Jordan, Gianna Lynn, Kaylani Lei, Lexi Lamour, Nikki Rhodes, Veronica Rayne, Derrick Pierce, Ethan Cage, Jack Vegas, Mr. Pete, Tommy Gunn, Tony De Sergio item NV-WKD-1701-DVD, dvd format: `$28.95` `v-wkd-1701`
