Ashley and Kisha: Finding the Right Fit
Tony Comstock
Comstock Films
Ashley and Kisha: Finding the Right Fit is the latest film
from Tony Comstock, porn's premiere cinema verite director. Comstock
specializes in finding real people who are willing to speak frankly
about their sex lives, and demonstrate those sex lives on camera, and
the latest film follows the same documentary premise, intercutting
interviews with brief snippets of a sex scene, followed by the complete
scene. While his previous films have focused on straight couples and one
gay male couple, this is the first devoted to a lesbian relationship.
Ashley and Kisha are a charming couple, very comfortable together, and
their story is funny, interesting, and rather charming. They met in
college, where Ashley was an openly gay student athlete, and Kisha was a
straight student who wasn't even bi-curious -- at least, as far as anyone
knew, including herself. But Ashely pursued Kisha, and gradually won her
over, with some humorous misadventures along the way. (The story of
their first attempt to use a strap-on is hilarious.) Having gotten to
know them a little through their interviews, it's a bit odd to watch
them make love -- after all, they're not playing roles, but letting you
peek into their real lives -- but the context also makes the sex more
emotionally involving for the viewer. (It doesn't hurt that they're both
gorgeous.) For those of you who can't abide talking, you can elect to
watch just the sex scene, but if that's your attitude, this probably
isn't the film for you -- hearing them talk about sex is at least as
interesting as watching them have it. (2007, 1 hr.)

Chemistry
Tristan Taormino
Vivid
Finally, someone has done something interesting with the idea
of reality-porn! Tristan Taormino, sex columnist, author, and director,
locked seven porn stars up in a house for a day and half, and did
interviews and sex scenes, one after another, with them. The results are
utterly charming, even more than her previous release House of Ass (which we loved, too).
The stars are interesting and articulate, the sex is incredibly hot
(after the very first scene, we're amazed Mr Marcus has a cock left),
and the whole thing is like the absolute best dirty weekend
ever.
We're also pleased to see that it stars Dana DeArmond, who
appeared in our release Superfreak
... hi,
Dana!
The main feature is nearly three hours long, and
there's a whole bonus disk, so you cannot beat this one for value for
money,
too!
Won the 2007 AVN Award for Best Gonzo Release. (2006, 2:47)

Chemistry 2
Taormino, Tristan
Vivid/ Smart Ass
Chemistry 2 is the follow-up to Tristan Taormino's
award-winning and celebrated "reality porn" release
Chemistry. The premise here is essentially the same:
Tristan locked eight porn stars in a house for 36 hours, interviewed
them, and filmed them having sex -- with no script and no direction
beyond being told who to sleep with, so they could do whatever they
like. The group dynamics are fascinating, the sex is crazy hot, and the
production values are great. The interviews, which provide real insight
into life in the business, are awesome, too. It's a great film all
around, and including the bonus features, there are probably around five
hours of footage, so there's plenty to sink your teeth into. It differs
from most reality shows principally in the lack of conflict and
"villains." Perhaps it's because they were only in a house together for
a day and a half, but they all seem to get along remarkably well, and
overall they radiate positivity. (Which doesn't mean none of them
critique the porn business, but their complaints tend to have more to do
with institutional problems than interpersonal ones.) This is a lot
smarter than your average porn, and that's a good thing; smart is sexy.

Chemistry 3
Vived/Smart Ass
Chemistry 3 is the latest in Tristan Taormino's
groundbreaking "reality porn" series, and it's hot, funny, and
enlightening. Six well-known adult film stars -- Roxy DeVille, Hillary
Scott, Jada Fire, Christian, Derrick Pierce, and Steven St. Croix --
were locked in a house for 36 hours, filmed constantly, periodically
interviewed, and encouraged to fuck one another any way at any time,
with no direction. The result is a three-and-a-half hour film with about
nine actual sex scenes and countless scenes of conversation, confession,
laughter, and goofing around. If you're interested in wall-to-wall-sex,
this isn't for you, but if you have any curiosity about the real people
in porn, this is a rare chance to look behind the curtain. Derrick
Pierce and Roxy DeVille are especially interesting with an ongoing
discussion on the dynamics of rough sex (choking, slapping, etc.) --
when it's hot and when it's not, when it's acceptable and when it
crosses a line. Roxy is totally hilarious, too, presenting a non-stop
stream of jokes and stories and weirdness, including cartoon voices and
her strange predilection for rolling around in empty bathtubs. Hillary
is, as always, flat-out adorable, and Jada doesn't take crap from
anybody. They all talk about what they like, and don't like, in their
personal and professional sex lives, and discuss strategies for getting
through especially tough days on the job. The best sex scenes involve
Roxy and Derrick together and Hillary and Christian together, but there
are plenty of threesomes, foursomes, and shower sex (poor Christian
could barely wash himself without getting ambushed). There's not much in
the way of interpersonal drama, with everyone pretty much getting along,
so don't expect the petty slapfights typical of most reality shows. It's
nice to see performers talking so openly and honestly, and having so
much fun. There are heaps of bonus features, including lots of extra
footage, and if you really are just interested in the sex, there's a
positions menu, too. (2007, 3:30)

Coming Home
Early to Bed
Coming Home is indie lesbian porn featuring real gay
performers, and the difference between this -- the real thing -- and fake
lesbian mainstream porn is palpable. There are four scenes, each
featuring a different couple making love at home, and the performers
here are experienced, vigorous, enthusiastic, and fun-loving. They also
display a refreshingly wide range of body types. Sure, there's one scene
with young, slender, tattooed hipster types -- Anja and Eva -- who could
probably make the jump to mainstream alt-porn if they wanted, but
they're the exception (albeit a yummy exception, who engage in some very
fine strap-on fucking with some light bondage accessories). The first
scene has a couple of dykes the likes of which you'll never see in
mainstream lesbian titles, and Kathleen and Everett fuck with tremendous
enthusiasm and hunger. Deborah and Shannon are older women -- not
elderly, certainly, but approaching middle-aged, which is pretty much
elderly in porn terms -- who have a tender romantic moment that turns
into a romp all over the room, with the assistance of some toys. The
best scene of the bunch is the weirdest, a Tinkerbell/Peter Pan
roleplaying scene, with a gorgeous black femme covered in body glitter
and wearing a beautiful pair of wings, alongside a boyish, pixieish Pan.
They're having an absolutely wonderful time, and there are a lot of nice
whimsical touches -- like a spanking with a magic wand! -- along with some
serious fucking, including a strap-on and some great anal play.
It's a low-fi production overall, to be sure -- the sets are nothing
special, the costuming (apart from the divine Tinkerbell and Peter Pan
scene) is minimal, and the lighting and sound are only adequate, but the
minimalist feel only adds to the sense of verisimilitude.

Friends and Lovers
Blowfish Video
Friends and Lovers celebrates real sex with three couples talking
frankly about their personal sex lives -- and then providing
demonstrations. The first couple, Charles Paul and Leila Swan, are
professional porn performers and filmmakers, and they talk about the
transition from the San Francisco porn scene to the more mainstream
commercial porn business in Los Angeles (if you were wondering, the Bay
Area is more genuine and kink-friendly than the San Fernando Valley).
Leila's gorgeous, and their sex scene is a lot of fun. Eamonn and Grace
talk about their exhibitionist tendencies and their belief that
sexuality is the root of creativity. They have a great, passionate scene
in a kitchen, and it's clear they know one another's bodies and
preferences very well, and that, regardless of how long they've been
together, they still take joy in the act of sex with one another. The
last couple, Bob and Suzy, are really fantastic. Though they've had sex
on film a few times, they don't call themselves porn stars, because
there's no acting -- they just really love sex, and if there happens to
be a camera running, they don't mind having sex in front of it. Their
scene is joyful, genuine, and pleasantly raunchy, and the conversation
beforehand is great, too, a fascinating glimpse into the world of San
Francisco play parties and polyamory. Real people having real fun
fucking; what could be more
natural?

Girls Get it On
Abby Winters
Girls Get It On features two sex scenes, starring
Australian girls making love, as well as before-and-after interviews
with the performers. This is indie porn made by a woman, and the
performers are amateurs. No plot, no elaborate sets, no strap-ons or
other accessories, just two girls in a room. The first two, Ava and
Liandra, are cute as sexy buttons, young and sweet and seemingly very
happy about getting together. (They do have noticeable armpit hair and
pubic hair, which will be a turn-off for some of you and a turn-on for
others, no doubt). They make out in a bathtub, touch and kiss one
another intimately, eventually move to the floor, and continue. They
laugh and they smile and it really is like watching two people have sex
for the first time, complete with moments of tenderness and awkwardness.
It feels
genuine.
The second scene, with lovely Asian Fuji and the lanky (but
still cute) Armine getting together in a book-lined living room is a bit
less tender but, in some ways, even hotter -- Fuji has a take-charge
attitude, and she's the most gorgeous woman in the movie, with an
incredible body. There's something wonderful about seeing a woman lounge
in a chair while another woman kneels between her legs with her head
bowed, and there are orgasms aplenty as a result.
The interviews are pretty brief, and not particularly illuminating,
though they do serve to reinforce the amateur, unpretentious feel, and
further humanize the performers -- it's hotter to watch them make love
when you feel you've had a glimpse of their "real" selves, however
briefly. There are no extras to speak of beyond the interviews, and
overall this has a real bare-bones feel, more like a couple of porn
website mpegs ripped onto a DVD than a proper feature. The production
values are only adequate, but the individuality of the women involved
makes it noteworthy, and the chemistry and genuine joy they seem to take
in their lovemaking raises this one to a recommendable level. (115 min.)

Girls Go Hardcore
Abby Winters
Girls Go Hardcore features two scenes of unscripted, natural, girl-girl
fucking by hot Australian amateurs. (At least, "amateur" in the sense of
performing for cameras -- they're clearly quite experienced and
comfortable with their bodies and the bodies of others). Both scenes
feature a pierced, dreadlocked, intense woman named Shane, who is
clearly the star here, though her partners shine too. The first scene
has Shane and a strawberry-blonde, innocent-looking girl named Laurin,
and after a little conversation and making out on the street they return
to Shane's place and jump into bed. There's no cheesy music, no
attention paid to positioning themselves for the cameras, just serious
fucking. This isn't soft-focus languid slow lipstick lesbian stuff --
Shane finger-fucks Laurin hard, buries her face in her cunt (she even
has pubic hair!), and generally puts the girl through her paces. Shane
is very much the aggressive dominator, and Laurin is swept away. The
first scene is good, but the second is spectacular -- Shane is
perfectly complemented by Fallon, a short-haired girl with a beautiful
fit body. After brief preliminaries they get down to it, Shane once more
taking the lead, but their chemistry together is astonishing. Fallon
clearly has a hair-trigger when it comes to orgasms, and she spends much
of the time authentically gasping, shuddering, and moaning; it's very
hot. Her intensity goads Shane to even greater heights, and they fuck
wildly, like starving women presented with a buffet. When Shane goes
down on her, Fallon grabs her hair and grinds against her face, and
Shane finger-fucks Fallon so hard she has to brace herself against the
footboard to keep from sliding off the bed. Once they've worn each other
out, they collapse, entwine, and sweetly kiss. It's altogether awesome,
the kind of chemistry that can't be faked. There's some decent
behind-the-scenes footage, and a very fine short scene, "An Intimate
Moment with Shane and Laurin," where they talk about their various
piercings and then masturbate together. This is hot, straightforward,
hardcore smut, and well worth a look. (2007, 110 min.)

Girls in the Groove
Abby Winters
Girls in the Groove features two nice long scenes, very
lightly edited, of lesbian couples making love. There are no interviews,
not much in the way of small talk, basically no props, no set dressing,
no fancy lingerie, no distractions -- just girls having playful sex.
There's an unrehearsed, impromptu quality to the scenes, which is
charming. The camerawork is hit-or-miss -- sometimes you can tell there's
something hot happening, but you can't quite see over the shoulder of
the girl on top, or the angle is a little too sharp. That's occasionally
frustrating, but it also adds to the illusion of verisimilitude; these
girls clearly aren't thinking much about blocking or camera position,
and they seem to be doing what comes naturally. Chloe B. and Paula are
up first in a sweet, slow scene, with lots of hot kissing and a gradual
exploration of one another's bodies. Ava and Tammy B. are rather more
passionate and athletic in their scene, providing a nice counterpoint to
the more languid lovemaking of the first couple. The girls seem to be
fresh-faced amateurs, and there's an openness and warmth to the scenes
that's marvelously refreshing. This is a no-frills production, but the
simplicity actually makes it seem more convincingly real. (2007, 113
min.)

Girls on Film
Abby Winters
Girls on Film is, essentially, a single lesbian sex scene that runs
close to an hour long. That may seem potentially boring, but in fact
it's a voyeuristic thrill -- you'll feel like you're sitting in a corner
of the bedroom, watching these cute, happy girls get it on. The film
opens with a pair of adorable Australian girls -- one brunette, one
strawberry blonde -- joking and laughing and playing around with a cheap
instant camera, taking snapshots of one another while flashing their
panties and bras. After a few minutes they head into an apartment and
tumble into bed, where they spend the next long little while stripping
one another naked, kissing each other, fingering each other, licking,
sucking, and generally enjoying themselves immensely. Jamie is
incredibly flexible -- she puts her legs behind her head, then hooks
them into the headboard, opening wide for Annabel's tongue. They're
petite, pale, and totally gorgeous together. The scene doesn't seem
chopped-up or edited together, but like a long continuous take, which
only increases the voyeuristic joy. There's no music, either, and the
only soundtrack is their laughter and gasps of pleasure. It's marvelous
stuff. Bonus features include trailers for various other AbbyWinters.com
DVDs, but the main event alone is worth the price of admission. (2006,
60 min.)

Intimate Moments: Shared
Abby Winters
Intimate Moments: Shared is a great idea with a charming,
sexy execution, produced by AbbyWinters.com, an Australian company that
specializes in all-girl amateur films with a feminist bent (so it's more
about embracing the sensuality of womanhood than fetishizing teenage
girls, which is a nice change). The set-up is simple. Two girls in a
room with a camera, masturbating to orgasm. These aren't lesbian scenes
per se -- each woman is mastering her own domain, as it were -- but there
are some moments of mutual masturbation and the occasional lending of a
helping hand for a caress or nipple-tweak. There's no director, and no
cameraman, either, so the camera doesn't move, but the static shot,
usually from the foot of the bed, only serves to heighten the realism.
There's no sense that the women are acting, either, and their
performances range from the shy and the demure to the loud and
exhibitionist. Watching young, cute women (with adorable Australian
accents) bring themselves to climax is wonderful, but their
conversations are often just as good, as they share fantasies, talk
about techniques, or just chat. Despite the fundamental artificiality of
filming two women masturbating side-by-side, the scenes feel very real
and unmediated, and it really does feel like you're peeking in at, well,
intimate moments. There are seven scenes, with seven pairs of women, all
attractive, natural Australian amateurs, and there's enough variety to
keep it interesting (most of them are laying on beds, but one couple
sits facing a mirror, and while they mostly all use their hands, there's
a toy or two in evidence as well). It's a great concept, simply produced
and well executed. (90 min.)

Lots More Intimate Moments
Abby Winters
Lots More Intimate moments has nine scenes (ten counting the bonus
scene) of cute natural amateur Australian girls masturbating, either
alone or in pairs. It's a simple premise, and one that AbbyWinters.com
does exceedingly well, and most the scenes are pretty good, though there
are a couple of duds, where the girls don't seem to have much fun, and
so the viewers won't, either. Standouts include slow-burning brunette
Calibre, who tugs her panties up hard through her crotch and, after
coming, strokes her own body languidly. Blonde Julianna periodically
rolls on her side, tucks a pillow between her thighs, and humps against
the fabric, which is arrestingly hot. The cutest pair is Paula and
Anthea, adorable, sexily dressed, lying across one another and stroking
and nuzzling. Kaitlin is heartbreakingly cute, probably the single
sexiest girl here, but the camera angle is a bit unfortunate, positioned
so you can only see her face when she throws her head back in ecstasy
(which isn't a bad moment to see her, true). More disappointing moments
include Miranda, who is cute enough, but narrates everything she's doing
in a sort of blank monologue, and has a strangely affectless expression.
Siobhan and Alison simply don't do much but lay idly side by side
chit-chatting for most of their scene, and the sound isn't especially
good or audible. (In the final three minutes they do reach down and get
off, and it's a nice three minutes, but still.) With so many scenes,
it's acceptable that there are a couple of lackluster ones, but this is
definitely a hodgepodge. Skip around until you find something you like.

Marie and Jack, a Love Story
Tony Comstock
If you've ever wondered what a relationship between two porn stars would
be like, you need to see this film. The reality might just surprise you.
Marie and Jack are two twenty-something hotties who share the most
intimate details of their relationship in this myth-breaking
documentary. On screen they are sexual dynamos, fucking and sucking
their ways to the top. At home their lovemaking is some of the most
tender sex this Blowfishie has ever had the pleasure of spying in on. We
listen to Marie and Jack talk about what it takes to be in the industry
and, even better, what it takes to please each other and make their
relationship work. And plus, you get to watch them
fuck.
The DVD has the entire film, plus raw footage of the
sex scene from both cameras that were used so you can "edit" the scene
yourself using the Angle button on your DVD player.
Nifty!
This is a hotly sweet gem, highly

Matt & Khym: Better Than Ever
Tony Comstock
Comstock Films
The latest in Tony Comstock's series of documentaries featuring real
couples talking about -- and demonstrating -- their sex lives is sweet,
sexy, and ultimately even inspirational. Matt and Khym met when she was
just out of high school (he was three years older) and, after a brief
friendship, became romantically involved. They've been together ever
since, for almost twenty years, and the first half of the film features
them sitting together on a couch, talking about how they met and the
course of their lives together, with an emphasis on the sexual. It's
clear they're just as much in love now as they were when they first got
together, and they can't keep their hands off each other. Their story is
sometimes sad and sometimes funny. They talk about their first years
together, when she still lived with their parents and they could only
have sex in the car. They had making love in a car down to a
science, and when they finally had a place of their own, they
had to re-learn how to have sex in a bed. Over the years they had
various long-term houseguests (assorted relatives, a troubled teenage
foster child), and so their sex life always had a whiff of the
clandestine about it. In their last couple of years, living alone
together, they say they've undergone a sexual renaissance. Twenty years,
and still so passionate. We should all be so
lucky!
They obviously take great comfort and solace from their
relationship -- it seems to be the utter bedrock foundation of their
existence. And sex is a big part of that life; they can't even
take a day-long road trip without finding a place to pull off the road
for a quickie in the car. I almost expected the inevitable long sex
scene to take place in a car, for old time's sake, but it happens in
their bedroom, and it's a loving, intimate, sexy affair. And, not to be
prurient, but she's got a very beautiful body, and he's stayed in shape,
too, though neither one looks a bit like a stereotypical porn performer,
which is a big part of the point. After the sex scene, the camera
returns to them, and they explain that they took part in this film to
show people that it's possible to be with someone for decades and still
feel all that passion, chemistry, and devotion. It's clearly true, and
it's inspiring. (2006, 55 min.)

Xana and Dax, When Opposites Attract
Tony Comstock
We love Comstock Films here. We've been huge fans since day one of the
first Comstock release, Marie and
Jack: A Love Story. And now we have Xana and Dax: When
Opposites Attract, and we love it,
too.
Xana is a buxom blonde who knows just what she wants;
Dax is dark, slender, and young and eager. They make one of the most
visually pleasing couples we've seen in porn in a long time, and they
are hot, hot, hot together. This is what "real couples" sex
video should be like: a fun interview, and really good romping. Not a
trace of "porn movie" surrounds this: you're watching two really
good-looking people in their bedroom. Great production quality rounds
out a wonderful
release.
