Studio: Pixies Emporium
Review brief: NOTE: This is an amateur video. Amateur and homemade movies dont have the budget nor the resources of studio porn, and therefore rarely get close to the same quality technically. Im rating this DVD on the same scale, but most homemade or amateur features would rarely make it above a 3 on the standard scale I use for studio porn for their technical aspects. The performers also arent normally the glamour stars one expects from studio porn, and instead use people who look like somebody you might encounter in your day to day life. Finally, the camera work has a different feel, as its often shot from a tripod or with somebody who doesnt have the technical training or experience of professional cameramen. That said, amateur and homemade features have a great charm to them, simple because the people in them are doing what theyre doing to have fun and because they enjoy it.

Review brief: The Little Details Running Time: 86 min. Production Date: 4 / 11 / 2003 (cover) 6 / 16 / 2003 (feature) Director: Jim Powers Cast: Jessica Darlin, Ashley Blue, Flick Shagwell, Lana Moore, Brandi Lyons, Crystal Ray, Holly Stevens, Reese, and Rebecca Bardoux The Short Story Initial Expectations: Normally Id pass this one by, due to JMs overall attitude, but Ive been so impressed with Lana Moore that I have to see more! Initial Reaction: Theres some hot sex here, but the attitude left me more turned off than turned on by the end of it. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting more derogatory all girl action Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants the entire feature to be a gangbang The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The video is pretty good. Its nicely balanced, but theres quite a few very noticeable background noises. The video is pretty clear. Its nicely lit but there is a small amount of grain. Music: The music is by The Nobodys, and has a rough edge to it that just isnt for me.

Review brief: The Little Details Running Time: 53 min. Production Date: 12 / 10 / 2003 Director: Kira Eggers Cast: Kira Eggers and Terri Summers The Short Story Initial Expectations: I was really impressed with Stocking Secrets 1 & 2, and am going into this one with extremely high expectations! Initial Reaction: Its hot, but not quite as good as the original. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who loves the female form and sexy outfits Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting actual sex The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects almost have a problem. The video is gorgeous. Its clear and well lit, and looks beautiful! The problem comes in with the audio. Rather than being balanced between the left and right, one side has the music only and the other side has the rest of the audio. I say that this is almost a problem because the girls barely make a sound and the music only shows up for a few seconds between scenes. Id probably rate the technical aspects lower if there was more audio in the movie.

Im looking forward to this one. Initial Reaction: Its okay, but nowhere near what Ive come to expect after some of Marc Dorcels other movies. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting something a little soft with a plot Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting artistic sex with quite a bit of anal The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are very nicely done. The audio is dubbed for English, but normally works very well. The video is presented in non-anamorphic widescreen (hopefully Marc Dorcel will go with anamorphic widescreen in the future), and looks great. Its clear and very nicely lit.

Initial Reaction: It has a few minor problems, but is still nicely enjoyable. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting chemistry and reality Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting nastier sex or top notch technical aspects The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: Shot at Homes movies are homemade videos, and I hesitate to compare them on the same scale as studio porn. Homemade movies dont have the budget nor the resources of studio porn, and therefore rarely have close to the same quality. Im rating this DVD on the same scale, but most homemade features would rarely make it above a 3 on the standard scale I use for studio porn.

Im looking forward to this one, especially because of Cherry Rain and Brooke Balentyne. Initial Reaction: It stumbles a little, but is still very worthwhile. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting straightforward sex with a slightly artistic eye Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting girls who look barely legal The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are a bit different for Digital Sins releases. The audio is clear and well balanced, but at times almost seemed a little soft. The video is very artistic. The light varies quite a bit through the movie, and natural light is used as often as possible which bleaches out some of the colors.
