Beast (Sin City Entertainment)

Cast: Jessica Drake, Ava Vincent, Maya Devine (aka Wendy Devine), Miko Lee, April, Alec Metro, Anthony Crane, Lee Stone, Eric Masterson, Evan Stone (uncredited on box cover)

Directed by: Michael Raven

Plot: This is one of those movies that you don't want to give away too much as it actually has a plot. Anthony Crane is the Beast a wealthy (it is implied in one scene at least) but scarred pornographer who is in search of a mistress to complete him. Who he finds is Beauty (played by Jessica Drake).  What happens after that is left to you to decide if it was real or just part of Anthony's imagination.. 

I. Main Menu:

    A. Play Movie:

    B. Chapters:

Two separate screens with three chapters listed per screen.  Each chapter is just assigned a number but a box showing a clip is provided to help you decide what scene you want to look at.

        Scene 1 - Miko Lee and Alec Metro are filming a domination scene for Michael Raven and Anthony Crane.  Miko does an outstanding job of being in charge.  She really delivers on the dialogue and never misses a beat.  She smothers him with her pussy, grinds her teeth into his cock and spits in his face.  There are only two positions in this scene (cowgirl and doggie) but you won't notice that until the scene is over.  He cums in her mouth and she promptly spits it on his chest.  She may have even spit it in his face but the camera angle wasn't clear.

        Scene 2 - April is a submissive little slut looking for someone to take her.  She is taken to Lee Stone where she proves she is more than a pretty face by deep throating his rather large member.  The sex starts out fairly slow in the missionary position but when they switch to doggie Lee really pounds her while pulling her hair.  He cums in her mouth though you would be hard to prove it if a little hadn't run out onto her chin.

        Scene 3 - Eric Masterson is Maya Devine's slave boy for her to abuse while a chained up Anthony Crane watches.  She weakly whips him supposedly making his back bleed.  Note to people if you aren't going to actually whip someone don't bother trying.  She then has him lick her ass before she straddles his cock and rides him in the reverse cowgirl position.  Before switching to doggie she pulls his cock out and smacks it with her hand.  She then bites it and drags her teeth across the head.  Even later she pulls it out to give it three hard smacks.  At one point she appears to cum while being pounded and she stays in character by telling him if he ever did that to her again he would never see her again because she would cut his dick off.  He cums on her chest and in her mouth.  She spits it in his face and kicks him out of her room.

        Scene 4 - Jessica and Ava are at home in bed.  This starts out in a romantic mood but cuts a little to quickly to the sex in my opinion thereby ruining the build-up.  Even with the romantic overtones here Jessica is still the one in charge.  Ava never has sex with her.  Jessica eats out Ava and then fucks her with a dildo.

        Scene 5 - Anthony Crane and Miko Lee in the bathroom at the Goth club going at it hot and heavy.  Jessica comes in and takes charge.  She gags and blindfolds Miko before taking her (Miko's) clothes off.  Jessica never has sex with either Miko or Anthony.  The most she does is get her tits sucked by Miko and then jerks Anthony off into Miko's mouth.  This scene is very intense.  Miko seems to really get into it and Jessica is great as the always just out of reach but in control mistress. 

        Scene 6 - Jessica Drake and Evan Stone in a fantasy sequence.  This scene is different from all the others in that it does not have and domination aspect at all.  It is shot in a very romantic fashion.  It should be also noted that this is Mrs. Drakes one and only anal scene to date.  For those of you out there going there is no such thing as a romantic anal scene then I suggest you watch this one and see for yourself.    At one point Evan is whispering in her ear and while you can't hear what he is saying it does bring a genuine smile to her face.  He cums in a goblet and Jessica drinks it up.

    C. Special Features: 

        1. Photo Gallery - Manual advance or automatic if you let it sit for approximately 10 seconds.  I counted about 30 pictures in all but it was hard to tell as I would swear some of them repeated before the cycle started all over again.  

        2. Previews - Interesting choice of previews considering this is a feature and all the previews are for gonzo movies.

            a) Eighteen and Easy

            b) Eighteen and Anxious (menu shows box cover for Eighteen and Awesome but that is a different movie)

            c) Just 18

        3. Website - This is a bad link since it starts the movie.

        4. Sexy Talk - Another bad link as it takes you to the web site ad missing from the above link and the phone sex ads never appear.

        5. Behind the Scenes - A 13 minute segment that covers the gambit from interactions between the cast and director as well as some information about the shoot.  Such as it had a 60 person cast and was Sin City's biggest budget movie of the year.  It shows Alec Metro teaching Miko how to smother him with her pussy as well as both of them deciding they aren't in the mood for anal today.  Ava also throws a mock fit at not being able to dominate Jessica in their scene together.  Unfortunately there is some break-up of the digital image off and on during the behind the scenes footage.

        6. Bloopers - A 1 minute 52 second segment of various outtakes.  Some of them funny and some of them not.

        7. Music Video - "Submission" by Tame and the Newlydeads.  Don't like the song but the video was extremely well done intercuting images from the movie and actual bondage footage to make a nice montage.

II. Comments:

  I should start off by saying that I am a little biased where the lovely Mrs. Drake is concerned.  I consider her a friend and as such I go into viewing each of her movies wanting to like it.  Even taking that into account I would consider this one of the best adult movie's I have ever seen.  From the acting to the production values and even the packaging everything about this movie just hit the mark.  Anthony Crane gives a stellar performance as the Beast and Mrs. Drake gives the best performance of her career as the Dominatrix called Beauty.  Yes you actually walk away from this believing Mrs. Drake capable of being the controlling bitch she plays in the movie.  Michael Raven's directing, timing and lighting are also excellent.  On the sexual front Miko Lee and April both turn in Tour de Force sexual performances with Jessica's first anal scene to put the cherry on top of the sundae.

  Now with all that praise what could I possible say against this movie?  Well there are a few things though minor in my mind.  The Plot itself may be a little much for some people.  All but one of the sex scenes has a strong domination theme going on and that may turn a lot of people off especially considering it is the male being dominated in most of them.  Jessica and Ava's scene had a lot of potential but it was cut a little short for my taste.  On the technical front the DVD showed some failings in the technical aspects noted above.

  All in all still a worthy addition to anyone's adult movie library.
