I Swallow Two Review

Reviewed by Principal Skinner  on  8/8/2000

I SWALLOW 2 is a continuation of the sensuously romantic, plot-heavy anthology series, starring the most beautiful Vivid Girls in the most tender and passionate scenes ever filmed for home video...not. Actually, this video is the second in the "ewww...gross!" series made by the infamous Rodney Moore. When it comes to porno, the sexual envelope is constantly pushed to bring jaded viewers different visuals in which to enjoy the experience. Naturally, more "unusual" types of sexual behavior are subject to local laws and community standards, but as far as I know, there have been no limitations as to how the male orgasm can be shown before the camera. Certainly, titles like DOWN THE HATCH, or A CUM SUCKING WHORE NAMED..., and of course I SWALLOW are centered on the art of swallowing, so the subject matter says it all; if you are content with money shots which land on a girl's face, chest or butt, then these movies may be bit extreme. On the other hand, if you enjoy staring at what are usually far-out freak shows, then these videos are right up your alley.

Even if you are an avid fan of watching performers drink jizm on screen, I SWALLOW 2 can still be somewhat difficult watch; for one thing, most of the actresses by and large, are average looking at the very, very, very best. And when the camera focuses so closely and tightly on their visages, sometimes its not such a pretty sight. Secondly, the raison d' etre of this series is obviously to injest all the man-goo that Rodney or his actors can squirt, and the casual deliberateness of the act can be quite disarming. This is particularly true when we see a mess of thick, stringy white stuff all over the cute face of long-time porn performer Shanna McCullough. As a couple of fellow actresses use silver spoons to shovel the cold, clammy, testicular yogurt into her eagerly inviting mouth...well, I kinda get grossed out. Mind you, I have had no real problem watching the wild and sexy Francesca Le slurp a protein shake from a straw in GANGBANG GIRL 13, nor did I flinch while of witnessing Vanessa Chase shucking sperm as it spilled out of the private parts of Rebecca Lords in GANGBANG GIRL14. But for some reason, I was taken aback by Shanna's clinical nonchalance in swallowing what must have been a pint or two of liquid DNA during her prolonged scene. Whether this is a favorable or poor reaction on my part is subject to your own interpretation.

The remaining scenes are good, but not great. Since most of the women are not at all photogenic, you may have an urgency to speed search until the end of each scene for the grand finale, which of course, never disappoints. Covergirl Jessica Jewel looks better in the movie than she does on the rather unflattering packaging jacket, but for some reason she is promoted rather prominently. She fucks, sucks and drinks as well as anyone else in this video, but her performance isn't nearly as mind-blowing (or splooge-blowing, as the case may be) as Shanna's. Dark-haired Brook Lynn (also horribly and laughably misspelled as "Brueklin" on the video) and very cute blonde Natasha perform a threesome with Mr. Moore, where both drink their protein shake from wine glasses. In all six scenes, each girl performs up to porno standards, and when it comes to injesting the money shot, by golly, they do it!

It is Shanna's scene, however, which is the creme de la creme of I SWALLOW 2. Teamed up with six guys for a far-out interracial orgy, this long- time actress' energy is nearly boundless despite all the activity going in and around her. She can really chew cum and fuck at the same time. Anyhow, her scene would be remarkable enough for her athletic sexual performance alone, but all her swallowing definitely puts it over the top. Whether you can stomach what she puts into her stomach is a whole other matter, but this will probably go down as the most memorable scene in her entire career (for good or for bad).

Overall, however, I SWALLOW 2 lacks the heat of the first edition, mainly because the women occupy a lower echelon in terms of appearance, and because their enthusiasm seems to be lacking [not that I blame them]. Bobbi Bliss' ravenous scene in I SWALLOW was far more erotic than all of part two's, despite Shanna's best efforts.

The picture quality on this disc is every bit as good as can be expected from a shot-on-video feature. The extras boil down to a few trailers, a photo gallery and some chapter selections; in other words, the standards stuff.

I SWALLOW 2 is a definite freak show. And while I found it fascinating, I can't say that I loved it...
