The Short Story

Initial Expectations: Johnni Darko has been doing some amazing movies. I’m really looking forward to this one.

Initial Reaction: It’s the best Johnni Darko movie I’ve seen so far.

Who Should Watch It : Analmaniacs and ass to mouth fans

Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks sex should be completely limited to one hole

The Technical Stuff

Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are excellent, and probably the best I’ve seen from Digital Sin. The audio is clear and well balanced, although the level did seem to change slightly during the movie. The video is just as good. It’s very clear and lit extremely well. This is an excellent looking and sounding DVD.

Music: There’s a little fuck music during the tease portions of the scene, but that’s about it. The music is a bit loud there and stands out nicely, which is just fine because when it drops out it draws more attention to the scenes themselves. There is a little music during the rest of the movie, but it’s so quiet you can barely hear it even if you listen specifically for it.

Menus: The menus are pretty good. The main menu has some very nice animation that gives a very good first impression. The chapter menu is also pretty good, and lets you jump to two points in each chapter based on a small clip of each segment and a chapter number. The only thing that could make this better would be something to let you know who the girl is in each chapter.

The Feature

With his ATM Machine series, Johnni Darko focuses on ass to mouth action. That’s right, you get a little of the tease that Johnni does quite well, a lot of anal, and plenty of girls sucking their ass of their partner’s cock. What’s not to like?

Scene 1 - Jayna Oso and Manuel Ferrara

Jayna starts things out doing a nice little tease in some sheer black lingerie. After stripping down she moves over to start warming up Manuel orally while he plays with her lightly, and then crawls onto his cock for a cowgirl ride. She lets Manuel play with her ass while she rides him, and minutes later moves him from her shaved pussy into her ass. She tastes her ass several times, and keeps tasting it while she and Manuel make their way through reverse cowgirl and a bit of spooning. Jayna also takes the time to show off a little hang time, and spreads it wide open before letting Manuel take her missionary style. They finish things up with a bit of doggie and Jayna taking an impressive facial from Manuel. She keeps her eyes closed for most of it, but you can still see that she’s longing for his jizz.

This is a great opening scene. Manuel is a great intense performer, and Jayna takes it all and never bats an eye. She seems to feed off Manuel’s intensity, and although he sometimes seems to get almost a little rough, I never got that feeling. The scene is extremely passionate, intense, and energetic, and makes for a great start to the movie. Johnni also does a very nice job of capturing it from several angles rather than just leaving the camera sit on the tripod as Manuel gives it to Jayna. My only complaint here is the toy which sits on the table at the start of the scene and never gets used once.

Scene 2 - Ashley Long and Ben English

British tart Ashley starts the second installment letting Johnni follow her up a staircase and showing off her immaculate body. She breaks out a glass dildo and lets it loose on her ass and sucks it off a few times before she’s joined by Ben. Ben kisses her ass cheeks before moving her panties aside so that he can get to her creamy starfish center. He works her over with his tongue and her toy before letting Ashley get down to suck him until he’s nearly as hard as her toy. Not surprisingly, Ashley lets Ben take her straight to the A from behind before sucking it clean and sending him back to get more. They keep it up with a bit of reverse cowgirl, missionary, and spooning so Ashley can add a couple fingers for her pussy while getting buttfucked. Finally, Ashley takes a nice creamy pop from Ben all over her mouth as she does a nice baby bird impression.

This is another great scene. Ashley and Ben have great chemistry and put plenty of energy and some nice vocals into it as well. I’m not sure if Ashley has ever disappointed me with her performances, and Johnni’s camera work only makes it better. He does a great job of moving around to capture the action, yet rarely focuses on the extreme close up. Instead he gives a nice clear view of the penetration and manages to get Ashley’s reacion in as well. This is a great scene.

Scene 3 - Flick Shagwell and Denis Marti

Flick starts things out in a hot little black outfit while showing off her oral skills on a clear dildo. The outfit quickly disappears so she can turn her toy loose on her holes, first going for her pussy to lube it up and then her ass. After playing and showing off a little, she’s joined by Denis, who lets his tongue loose on her undercarriage while continuing to work on her with her toy. He quickly moves on to fuck Flick’s ass while she continues to lay there, and even lets her suck it off his cock. Flick moves up to ride him reverse cowgirl style while fingering herself, and even adds the glass dildo to the mix for a technical DP. Denis keeps giving it to Flick through doggie and spooning, and lets her bring her toy back for a pile driver technical DP. They finally finish things up missionary style before Denis gives Flick a very nice facial which she takes with wide open eyes. She sucks out the last few drops, blows a few bubbles, and then swallows it down.

This is another great scene. Flick looks as good as I’ve ever seen her, and although she doesn’t take as much ass to mouth here as some of the other girls she keeps it just as nasty by keeping three fingers in her snatch at almost all times. She and Denis have great chemistry as well, and seem to know just what each other needs. As usual, Johnni keeps the camera moving around nicely to capture things from a few angles, and I don’t think there was a single time I wanted him to change the angle he was shooting from to show something else.

Scene 4 - Katja Kassin and Manuel Ferrara

Katja, looking gorgeous as ever, starts things out rolling around on a bed, fingering her ass, and sucking it clean. Manuel appears and gives her a break. letting his tongue and thumb work on her ass instead. Katja lets him throat fuck her as well before taking a reverse cowgirl anal ride. Naturally she sucks Manuel’s cock clean a few times, and continues to suck it when he works her through an energetic spooning, quite a bit of doggie, and even a little missionary work. Katja shows some great hang time as Manuel fucks her ass, and finishes things off Manuel giving her entire face a good spooge soaking.

This is one of those movies where by this point I’m not sure what to say. As usual, Katja and Manuel have excellent chemistry, plenty of energy, and no shortage of ass to mouth action. Johnni’s camera work is also excellent, and captures things from a few different points including a bit of extreme close-up. The biggest thing to set this scene apart from some of the others is that it has a slightly more artistic start, which was a very good thing. This is another excellent scene.

Scene 5 - Alaura Eden and Mr. Pete

Alaura starts the final scene out giving a nice little tease while sitting on a tall chair. Mr. Pete joins her to fuck her ass with a glass dildo and play with her pussy briefly before actually fucking her pussy a bit from behind. Alaura sucks her juices off his cock and then lets Mr. Pete go back to treat her ass to a little tough love. Alaura gives her butt several breaks as Mr. Pete works her through the usual positions, and doesn’t hesitate at all to take him into her throat. Unlike the other girls, Alaura finishes things up with Mr. Pete popping on her tits and letting her lick it up.

Alaura finishes things up very nicely. She has some of the best facial expressions in porn, and they’re all on display here. Johnni captures them very nicely as well as the action, and keeps a great balance to the scene. This is a great way to end the movie and an excellent scene altogether.

ATM Machine is an extremely hot anal extravaganza. Every scene is a winner, combining great work both in front of the camera and behind it. To start with, the cast is excellent. Everybody in the movie seems to have a deep love of anal sex and ass to mouth. I never had the slightest notion that anybody in the cast was just in it for the money, and they all had great chemistry and energy. Johnni Darko does just as good of a job behind the camera. He never loses track of the action, and captures it from a few angles. You can almost always see the penetration, and most of the time you can see the girl’s reaction as well. He even lets the guys get a little screen time as well, but when they do if feels natural rather than feeling like somebody’s playing “Let’s freak out the porno fan in mid-stroke by showing the guy”. At the end of the movie, I honestly couldn’t think of a single complaint I had about the entire movie. ATM Machine is an excellent fuck flick that’s highly recommended to fans of anal and ass to mouth action.

The Extra Stuff

Trailers are included for eleven of Digital Sin’s releases from across the gambit. The photo gallery contains roughly three dozen excellent looking snapshots and full screen photos which you can advance through at your own speed or which will advance automatically roughly every five seconds. There’s also a behind the scenes featurette, website information, and company info.

The behind the scenes featurette lasts about twelve minutes. After a few words from Johnni Darko on the magic, things move on to a few short interviews with the stars and a little of the scenes being shot. You get to see a fair amount of the stars as people, as well as Johnni working with the cast. It’s a nicely done behind the scenes featurette, especially when one considers the length. You get a little of everybody and it has a nice balance.

The Down -n- Dirty Sex Stuff

Themes: Straight, tease, interracial, spanking, anal, ass to mouth, toys, masturbation, and DP (technical)

Raincoat Factor: Extreme

Condom Usage: None

The Bottom Line:

Currently, many Digital Sin DVDs can be found online for between $15 and $29 with many stores offering them for around $20. This one’s well worth the money. The sex is incredibly hot and has plenty of replay value. The technical aspects are also handled extremely well and there’s some nice effort put into the extras. This is a great disc!

Note to Digital Sin: It’s great to see you putting more effort into your DVDs. The overall DVD is finally starting to match the quality of many of your movies.
