Review brief: Running Time: 88 min. (cover stats approx. 90 min.) Production Date: 5 / 18 / 2001 (cover) 12 / 3 / 2001 (DVD) Director: Nicholas Steele Cast: Kylie Ireland, Adriana Sage, Zana, Kaylynn, Billy Glide, Chris Cannon, Cheyne Collins, Kyle Stone, Lee Stone, and Tony Tedeschi in sexual roles and Frank Fortuna and Nicole London in non-sex roles Initial Expectations: This one looks like it could be fun, and Adam & Eves Premium Collection titles are normally worthwhile. Initial Reaction: Its kind of hit or miss throughout the feature, but luckily theres more hits than misses. Who Should Watch It : Fans of the stars and anybody who doesnt want to think during their porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who pays attention to plots or who wants either very tame or very nasty sex Audio /Video Quality: As seems to becoming a standard for Adam & Eves releases, the audio leaves quite a bit to be desired.

Review brief: Running Time: 138 min. Production Date: 8 / 18 / 1999 Director: Joey Silvera Cast: Annie, Carmen, Jeanie Rivers, Laura Angel, Lucy, Nikki, Super Baby, Erik Everhard, Frank Gun, Leslie Taylor, Nacho Vidal, Oliver Sanchez, and Joey Silvera Initial Expectations: Joey Silveras Please! series has become one of my favorite gonzo series. I always look forward to watching them and have high expectations. Initial Reaction: Its more great gonzo from Joey! Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for ball draining, juice inducing gonzo sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a plot with their porn Audio /Video Quality: Please 4 is the only movie I know of shot in SuperdaddypimpVision. What does this mean? Well, from the start it seems pretty obvious that theres going to be fun. The video has a simple feel to it, and feels like your typical gonzo feature. It has some of the shakes that most people expect out of gonzo porn, but the picture is very clear and the shadows dont interfere much.

Production Date: 10 / 19 / 2001 Director: Andre Madness Cast: April Blossom, Aurora Snow, Chandler, Jenna Haze, Lola, Pat Myne, Alex Sanders, Lee Stone, Mickey G., and Jay Ashley Initial Expectations: I havent seen anything from this series yet, so Im keeping an open mind about it. Initial Reaction: Its a lot of fun, but some of the girls are a little annoying. Who Should Watch It : Raincoaters who think smart women with glasses are sexy and people looking for fun porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a large plot or who thinks women need to be degraded to be sexy Audio /Video Quality: The audio is pretty clear, but a bit of it is slightly unbalanced. A small portion also sounds like it might have been dubbed. The video is much the same. The picture is clear and mostly free of shadows, but theres a little bit of pixelation and grain here and there. Music: None. Menus: The main menu has some nice animation to give a good first impression, which appears to be standard for Kick Ass DVDs.

Initial Reaction: Its a pretty good raincoater feature, but not as good as some of Ravens other works. Who Should Watch It : Raincoaters and people who like slightly nastier sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks VCA and Vivid are a little too nasty or who want a plot with their porn. Audio /Video Quality: The audio is normally clear and well balanced. Theres a few places where it sounds like there might be people talking in the background, but instead it was some of the music.

Fresh talent without really annoying guys who cant shut up in front of the camera! Who Should Watch It : Fans of fresh talent Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a plot Audio /Video Quality: The audio is pretty standard for gonzo porn. Theres a few unbalances in the audio, but normally its pretty good. You do get some background noises and can hear some of the stars being given directions, but thats part of the feel of the feature.

Most of the audio is nicely balanced and clear, but there is a little dubbing.

Production Date: 4 / 01 / 2001 Director: Seymore Butts Cast: Gina Ryder, Darla Crane, Ebony, Luna Rio, Mark Davis, Lee Stone, Hakan, and of course, Seymore Butts Initial Expectations: Seymore has shown the ability to make some dang hot gonzo features, and has also made some very good DVDs when hes put his mind to it. Im hoping this is one of the good ones rather than the pitiful excuses for a DVD that hes also released. Initial Reaction: Its a well done DVD but the feature gets a little long at times. Who Should Watch It : Fans of group sex and gonzo sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks a woman should only use one hole or who wants a plot Audio /Video Quality: Although its a gonzo feature, the audio is very good. Theres a bit of the unbalanced sound you expect from gonzo from when the camera gets a little too close to somebody, but thats about it. The video is much the same.

Im hoping this is one of them. Initial Reaction: Its a decent couples movie, but the plot outshines the sex. Who Should Watch It : Couples who are a little leery about watching porn with nasty things in it, anybody who wants quite a bit of plot with their porn Who Should Avoid It: Raincoaters and anybody who likes their porn a little on the nasty side Audio /Video Quality: The audio varies a bit. Much of it is nicely balanced, especially the dialogue, but some of the sex is a bit unbalanced.
