Behind-The-Scenes extra : Emphasis on ChiChi & the filming of the scenes. There's been a real effort in montage & creative effects in this extra, much more than the usual Vivid behind-the-scenes. Kody comes out as rather shy.

Short Story : Kody organizes a yardsale, but every object she sells has a special sexual history.

SCENE BREAKDOWN :

1) HOLLY HALSTON & TROY HALSTON

Over a candles and red wine dinner, Troy presents Holly with a choker, and she rewards him accordingly. Holly is beautiful in a black cocktail dress and impeccable hairdo. Too bad about the arm tattoo. Her hubby is a good- looking buff blonde. She tenderly sucks his balls as he lays on the table, then sips his rock-hard penis into the red wine glass, licking the residue off his shaft to swap it into his mouth. On her back, she explores her pussy while he delves 2 fingers in her ass. Keeping her dress and her high heels, she bends over on the table for a brief doggy. Troy mostly lets his dick come in and out of her pussy. Then he takes her on missionary for a longer time before coming on her high heels, which she licks off and swaps with him. A fantastic opening scene, daring but couples-friendly.

2) KODY & LEE STONE

After playing basketball, Kody & Lee come home to the bathroom for athletes relief. Kody wears some super-tight cotton hotpants but all too briefly as Lee strips her to her pink satin bra & panties. Lee looks huge from under as Kody sucks him, then he grabs her and humps her standing up under a hydraulic shower. Something like 12 showerheads spray them while Kody's rump slides up & down Lee's shaft. It could be hot, but the scene is too slow. Great angles & full body shots help keep it interesting though. He comes on her mouth.

3) LOLA, AUGUST NIGHT & STEVEN FRENCH

In a white living room, August & Lola share a pink dildo on the sofa. Lola looks particularly gorgeous here. She totally dominates the scene. She licks August through her golden satin panties, then strips her off to better indulge. Meanwhile she keeps her simple but sexy black see-through tight top & panties. August sits on her face as Steven French masturbates in a corner of the room, never to bother the pair during the entire scene. August briefly reciprocates the favour before Lola finishes her off with the pink dildo. Lola is good, but the girls lack chemistry.

4) NICOLE SHERIDAN & VOODOO

Here's another scorcher from porn's amants terribles. In a kitchen, Nicole, with curly hair and wearing Holly's earlier choker, has her twat taken care of by hubby Voodoo. There's some |b>lingerie play here as Voodoo tears and sniffs at her black panties, they put in their mouths and Nicole caresses Voodoo's crotch with it through his cargos. The foreplay is hellishly hot, not to be outdone by the subsequent expert fellatio, nastily administered by trash-talker Nikki. Voodoo puts his enormous white dong between the glass table and Nicole's lips, with most of the scene being filmed from under the glass partition. A similarly filmed titty-tunnel ensues, then comes the doggy, followed by a scissor missionary anal, before Voodoo lets out his goo on the glass table to let Nicole suck it off and spit it back (once again filmed from underneath the table). Easily the best scene in the movie.

5) KODY, CHRISTI LAKE & RANDY SPEARS

Christi, wearing a basic summer dress, sucks Randy through his shorts while Kody's talking on the phone. The petite contract girl joins in on the action in no time, caressing Randy while Christi continues to suck him. Then they all get naked for the threesome. Kody sits on a velvet chair as Christi licks her pussy while Randy gorges on her toes. There's a brief moment where he masturbates between Kody's bent leg, good idea but under-exploited. He then fucks Christi doggy-style, and Kody reverse cowgirl, before the girls suck him off (once again filmed from underneath). Christi & Randy seemed to have great chemistry, and Kody was an encumbrance to the scene. Too bad.

THE LOWDOWN :

Strangely enough, this barely-scripted feature had some very decent moments, but didn't hold together. The sex scenes are unrelated to each other, and there's no particular mood to make it a cohesive whole. Also, Kody is cute but a poor performer. She simply cannot carry a movie. Sheridan fans will want to see Nicole & Voodoo's great romp, and the 1st clip with the Halstons is also interesting. ChiChi knows his frames and angles, and I must commend his attention to lingerie & full-body shots. Some homo-erotic elements might disturb a narrow-minded audience. Worth a rental, not a purchase.
