Review brief: Running Time: 167 min. (122 min. on the first side and 45 min. on the second side), the cover states a 3 hour (180 min.) feature Production Date: 8 / 30 / 2001 Director: Luc Wylder Cast: Candy Roxx, Brooke Desire, Claudia Chase, Lisa Belle, Nikki Steele, Aja, Angelica Sin, Dee, Shaena Steele, Ariana, Champagne, Margo, Lea, Jenny Lyn, Andrea Amore, Chasity, Ashley Renee, Jamie Lee, Ava Vincent (listed here as Jewel Valmont), Analysa Riese, Casha Rey, Steve Hatcher, J. J Michaels, Billy Glide, Ian Daniels, Rich Handsome, Alex Sanders, Guy DiSilva, and many more Initial Expectations: Ive had mixed luck from Fallen Angel. Theyve had some very good features, but their overall DVDs have left a lot to be desired. I like Luc Wylders style, so Im hoping for some great sex, but Im not expecting much of a DVD. Initial Reaction: Its a great example of what not to do with a compilation.

Starring: Ed Powers, Tyler [I] (ambiguous), Anna, Barbie Brookes
Directed by: Ed Powers
Review brief: Running Time: 79 min. Production Date: July 1999 Director: Ed Ewww Powers Cast: Ed Ewwwww Powers, Tyler, Anna, and Barbie Brookes Initial Expectations: Like most other people, I look forward to Ed Powers just a little less than I do going to the dentist. Not even having Tyler in the cast can change that. Initial Reaction: For Ed its pretty good, but thats not saying much. Who Should Watch It : Anybody curious about Ed Powers and Tyler Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who likes well done porn Audio /Video Quality: The audio and video is much better than Ed Powers features normally are. The audio is low and often unbalanced and has quite a bit of background noise. You can also hear a few directions here and there and there are a few places where it disappears completely. The video is pretty good, but does show quite a bit of grain. It also suffers from some shadow problems and a few remnants here and there. Overall, its about what one normally expects out of more lower budget gonzo porn. Music: None.

Review brief: Running Time: 104 min. (cover states 2 hours) Production Date: 10 / 1998 Director: Stefan Rossini Cast: Allyssa Allure, Candy Vegas, Angela, Elena, Doomy Moore, Penelope Pumpkins, Eve Adams, Kimi-G, and John Strong Initial Expectations: This appears to be a compilation, which normally arent very well done. Initial Reaction: Theres almost nothing alluring about it. Who Should Watch It : Extreme fans of Allyssa Allure and all girl groups Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who likes technical qualities from average on up Audio /Video Quality: The technical qualities pretty much suck from the start. The audio is fairly clear, but dubbed worse than Japanese monster movies for the first scene. Thankfully, the dubbing gets closer later in the feature, but still doesnt seem right. The audio also isnt balanced that well, has quite a few parts that you cant hear, and frequently suffers from outside noise in the outdoor scenes.

Directed by: Jean Luc Brunet
Review brief: Running Time: 76 min. Production Date: pre - 03 Jul 1995 Director: Jean Luc Brunet Cast: Patricia Violet, Yoko, Helene Shirley, Yves Callas, Christine Glenne, Alban Ceray, Claire Forestier, Sylvie Scott, and Cristoff Initial Expectations: Ive had very mixed results with Plums foreign releases, so I dont really know what to expect. Initial Reaction: Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for a midway point between Skinimax and porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for what feels like a full porno Audio /Video Quality: The English audio for the feature is dubbed, and although clear, shows why many people hate dubbing. It has absolutely no soul whatsoever. The video is about what one would expect from a movie from the early nineties. It has a little grain and looks about like a normal VHS picture. Music: The music tries to have a very romantic style, which would normally help out couples movies. Sadly, it feels very cheap here, like somebody added it in by placing an old boombox near one of the microphones.

Review brief: Running Time: 86 min. Production Date: 10 / 21 / 1999 Director: Thomas Paine Cast: Tabitha Stevens, T. J. Hart, Temptress, Taylor Moore, Elle Devyne, Autumn Haze, and Chris Cannon Initial Expectations: I havent heard anything about this one but a lot of the cast are normally worth watching. Initial Reaction: Its extremely hard to watch unless its being fast forwarded or the sound is muted. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who doesnt have volume on their TV Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks the sounds should match the pictures and anybody who doesnt like Chris Cannon Audio /Video Quality: Although the picture and audio are clear, I think Helen Keller could synch the audio and video better. You can take this one of two ways, either by her being deaf or dead. It doesnt really matter since the audio is off by about ten seconds. Even Godzilla would be pissed at this! Music: The music is very typical and ranges from being a little too loud to very nicely balanced. Menus: The menus are very poor.

Review brief: Running Time: 83 min.

Even with this great of a female cast I dont have much hope. Initial Reaction: I confess that after this I dont really care if I see many more Knob / Ryder DVDs. Who Should Watch It : Extreme fans of the stars Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who likes good technical qualities Audio /Video Quality: The audio is fairly clear, but has some balance problems. It also cuts out frequently for a split second. The video is slightly grainy and suffers from Knob / Ryders usual problems associated with using Happy Meal toy flashlights for lighting scenes.

After this long I dont know if no news is that good of news, but with Rayveness and Meridian in the cast I have a little hope. Initial Reaction: Im glad I got it for free. Who Should Watch It : Extreme fans of the cast Who Should Avoid It: Everybody looking for a well made DVD Audio /Video Quality: Remember when you first saw DVD? How everything was so clear? This makes VHS look like that. The audio is a little better but not much. The voices come across okay but theres a constant static in the background and a few background noises during the outdoor scene. Theres also some obvious dubbing.

Initial Reaction: The only thing it has in common with the original is Deborah Wells playing one of the characters in each of them (and not the same character). Who Should Watch It : Fans of Tabitha Cash or NJ de Bahia Who Should Avoid It: Fans of the original Audio /Video Quality: The audio is available in both French and English. The French appears to be very clear, and although the English is clear, its also dubbed pretty poorly. The picture is pretty good but has a little grain.

Initial Reaction: It appears to have a very high budget but feels highly edited. Who Should Watch It : Fans of classic porn and high production values and people with short attention spans. Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants decent dubbing in foreign films and complete sex scenes Audio /Video Quality: The audio is very clear, although when its dubbed it should be. The dubbing, however, is hilarious. I couldnt hold back the laughter during the sex scenes. Sadly, I dont think it was meant to be so funny.

DeMoan, Tiffany Redmond, Sean Michaels, and Santino Lee Initial Expectations: Although it might be a great movie, Im not expecting it to be quite for me as there arent that many black people that I find attractive. Initial Reaction: It could have been a decent movie but the editing ruined it for me. Who Should Watch It: Fans of Sean Michaels or all black sex. Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who likes porn thats easy to watch or those who dont enjoy watching all black people. Audio /Video Quality: Most of the audio is very clear. The only problems I had were the few parts where it appeared to be dubbed and a couple times where it seemed like the mic was a little too close. Music: There isnt music in all of the scenes in the movie. What music there is is well balanced and a nice mix of typical porn music with a blend of funk and tribal music.

Initial Reaction: Although it had potential for some great sex scenes, it was botched almost completely. Audio /Video Quality: The audio is very uneven and unbalanced. I had to adjust the volume quite often while watching Fling . Although most of the sex is very clear, I struggled to understand much of the dialogue. Its not a big deal here but it does show lack of caring about the product. The video is much the same. It ranges from extremely grainy to very clear in the same shot. I think they might have been using flashlights for much of the lighting and had to share the batteries with the girls warming up with vibrators. There are also some flashes of garbage on the screen.

Theyve always seemed really poorly done both technically and overall. Initial Reaction: Its one of, if not the worst feature Ive ever seen. Audio /Video Quality: For a Pro-Am movie, its almost very good. The audio is very good and lets you hear most everything. The video is slightly grainy for most of the movie except for the last part of the last scene. Horrible is a compliment for the picture here. Its a little better than the original Atari games for this part. If not for these few minutes, I would have rated the audio and video an entire point higher. The color is also off in much of the film due to the lighting. Some of the movie is pretty well balanced and others are completely bleached out from too much lighting. Music: None.

Initial Expectations: Andrew Blake has great artistic vision, so I expect the movie to be excellent. Unfortunately, Im not expecting Caballero to give it the treatment it deserves. Initial Reaction: As a compilation DVD, the feature itself is pretty good. Unfortunately, Caballero has given this DVD one of the worst treatments Ive ever seen. Audio /Video Quality: The audio quality is pretty good, but the video quality leaves a lot to be desired. It ranges anywhere from average to are those people or farm animals having sex?.

Some of the cast is recognizable, but the lack of extras doesn't give me a lot of hope. Initial Reaction: The movie is almost okay, but the DVD as a whole is greatly lacking. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for really cheap porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting a DVD that looked like it was made by somebody with at least a double digit IQ Audio /Video Quality: There's a few spots with some dubbing, but they're not overly noticeable. There's a lot of grain to the picture. It doesn't really detract that much from the movie as the camera work leaves a lot to be desired.

Studio: Adult Source Media
Review brief: This one is pretty much a mess. It doesn't seem to line up with the description of the movie on the cover, and also seems like it's three completely unrelated stories merged together. The technical aspects are decent, but again, are inconsistent because two thirds of the movie is subtitled with the remaining third (which is in the middle of the movie) is dubbed. If you're a major anime fan this one might be worth a rental (and it's a really big might), but there's got to be better releases out there than this!

Review brief: This is easily one of the worst movies I've watched in a long time. Outside of Samantha Bentley the girls are average at best, the guys don't come close to average, and the gangbangs have between 2 and 5 guys with the women rarely taking on more than two guys at once with no anal. The technical aspects are decent, but there's no extras to help the overall release. Pass this one like the turd it is.

Review brief: This is easily the worst movie I've reviewed in a very long time. There's barely any action related to blowbangs with the vast majority of the action revolving around guys working on the girls with vibrating toys, and at least three of the scenes were previously released in other movies. The technical aspects are decent, but there's no effort put into the extras and not much to redeem this one in general. Skip this one without a second thought.
