The Little Details Running Time: 86 min. Production Date: 7 / 22 / 2006 Director: Roy Karch Cast: Cassidey Blew, Irina Sky, Jamie Elle, Katie Plays, Mia Smiles, Naomi, Satine Phoenix, Alec Knight, Billy Glyde, Kyle Stone, Lee Stone, and Reno The Short Story Initial Expectations: I'm not sure there's a director out there who's put more boring movies out than Roy Karch. That said, Sex Z has been doing enough different stuff and giving directors enough freedom that I can't help but a little curious about this one. Initial Reaction: It's light and hot, and easily the best thing I've ever seen Roy Karch direct. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting hot sex with a lighter feel Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting a plot The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are nicely done. The audio is clear and well balanced, although I did notice a couple extremely minor background noises. The video is presented in the full frame format and looks very nice. It's well lit and has just a hint of grain. [read the full review]

Star Struck (LGI) review summaries:
Tongue in Groove's
Star Struck is a pretty good couples film filled with erotic sex and a decent storyline. Brooke Alexander is a fan of porn star/director Randy Spears. Fan is too soft a word; obsessed is more like it, with her walls covered by his photos. In an effort to meet her idol, she pretends to be a journalist requesting an interview. She arrives at the set of one of his features. Blonde Olivia Saint and Steve Hatcher are running through their first scene. Theyre out by a pool and its a warm day. Olivia looks great in a red sundress. Before long, the couple is going at it frantically on a lounge chair. Steve fucks Olivia vag and anal and cums on her face. Brooke starts talking to Randys assistant, brown-haired beauty Venus, and before long theyre in a bedroom making out. This is a pretty good lezout, and the girls seem hot for each other, as well as the toys they play with. The next scene Randy shoots has Chris Cannon jumping cute Asian Mia Smiles bones. There is nice chemistry between the two and they screw in several positions. [read the full review]

Club Freak review summaries:
Linus'
Club Freak Preview Expectations: Well there is promises of fetish material and Nastier sex on the box, and the female cast is one hot group of starlets. I would like to believe in the promise of this title, but I have had mixed results with Adam and Eve, and more dissapointments than not, so as much as I would like to go in neutral, a checkered past makes me wonder how great the execution of the promise will be. Initial Thoughts Well it's not bad, but it isn't great either. The fetish promise never comes true, except for the leather outfits and things of that nature. The cast is hot, but the sex is really only average, there are a few hot moments, but there isn't a lot of passion or chemistry in the sex. The story is kind of aimed at being a live sex TV show, and Kylie does a pretty good job of her hosting, but the script kind of sucks, and it comes off more as looking like Kylie being a reporter doing a story on this sex club rather than her hosting a sex show from it, and it just doesn't work as well as it could have.

Slow Burn (Adam & Eve) review summaries:
Flash's
Slow Burn is an average porn film all the way around, the story is poor fast forward fodder and the sex is formulaic. New to porn couples will probably enjoy this film the most. Viewers that like nastier sex, a decent story or no story will want to pass on this title. [read the full review]

Running Time: 85 min. Production Date: 3 / 12 / 2002 Director: Roy Karch Cast: Keri Windsor, Zana, Mia Smiles, Renee LaRue, Calli Cox, Chris Cannon, Ian Daneils, Steve Hatcher, Kyle Stone, and Nick Manning Initial Expectations: Roy Karchs movies in the past have made me so bored Id almost be willing to watch a twenty four hour Teletubbies marathon instead. Initial Reaction: Its pretty average, which is a very good surprise! Who Should Watch It : Couples who dont want anything too intense Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a porno with a bit of intensity or anything beyond vaginal boy - girl sex Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are surprisingly good. The audio balance is off very slightly in a few places, but is mostly well balanced and clear. The video comes and goes. Some of it is nicely clear and well lit, while other parts have some blurry spots and low lighting. Its a pretty good transfer, and much better than I expected. Music: The music is very standard porn music. [read the full review]

Backstage Passes review summaries:
aybesea's
Expectations I have never watched an Adam & Eve movie. While I generally like gonzo films, I don't mind a good couples feature every now and then, especially if they feature great looking ladies. This one has Jodie Moore and that is the primary reason I'm watching it. Capsule Review It's very average couples fair. The sets and technical aspects are a little on the low end. Regular readers of my reviews already know that I don't attempt to review porno plots. These are an oxymoron in my mind. Technical The lighting leaves something to be desired as many of the scenes are too dark. The audio is fine. I can't tell if the mastering has problems because of the dark scenes, or if this is a separate issue. Overall, it's not too bad, just slightly on the weak side. Director Roy Karch Extras Photo gallery, bios, bonus scenes, behind the scenes, trailers Target Audience Couples and fans of plot based sex Scene Review Scene 1 - Anna Malle I have never been an Anna Malle fan. It's not that she doesn't have a good bod, cause she does. [read the full review]

Running Time: 83 min. Production Date: 7 / 2 / 2002 Director: Roy Karch Cast: Jodie Moore, Anna Malle, Mia Smiles, Kelly Warner, Mia Demore, Kyle Stone, Chris Cannon, Joel Lawrence, Steve Hatcher, Billy Glide, and Roy Karch in a non-sex role Initial Expectations: So far, Roy Karchs movies fall on my list of things I like to do several spots below watching Ron Jeremy suck his own cock. Im not really expecting things to change here. Initial Reaction: Its so good I had to repeatedly check and make sure Koy Karch made it. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who doesnt want any anal, group, or lesbian sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting intense sex and anything other than straight vaginal sex Audio /Video Quality: The audio is clear and well balanced for the most part, but there are a few sequences where the audio is off balance. Theres also a few spots where the audio gets scratchy, as if its been maxed out. The video has some slight grain, and the lighting is on the low side. [read the full review]

Running Time: 80 min. Production Date: 12 / 19 / 2000 Director: Roy Karch Cast: Chloe, Elizabeth X., Mia Smiles, Vivian Valentine, Maren Beautte, Chris Cannon, Ian Daniels, Kyle Stone, Mickey G., and Rod Fontana Initial Expectations: This appears to be a fun porno with a good cast. I hope it is. Initial Reaction: *Yawn* Who Should Watch It : Anybody who likes a little bit of plot and more couples oriented sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for more extreme sex and raincoaters Audio /Video Quality: The audio is normally very well balanced and clear, but there is a bit of dubbing here and there. The video has a slight bit of grain and a few shadows, but generally is also nice and clear. Theres also a bit of slow motion that seems to only interfere with the feature. Music: The music is pretty standard for couples porn. Its soft and smooth, and for the most part nicely balanced with the rest of the audio. There are a few spots where its the only audio, but its not often. [read the full review]
