Directed by: Jace Rocker, Jim Enright
Review brief: Running Time: 107 min. Production Date: 1 / 24 / 1993 Director: Jim Enright and Jace Rocker Cast: Porsche Lynn, Sierra, Lacey Rose, Melanie Moore, Christina Dior, Jenna Wells, Sean Michaels, Jonathan Morgan, Steven St. Croix, Julian St. Jox and Jim Enright in a non-sex role Initial Expectations: Im really curious about this one since its the first movie to ever be released under the Wicked label. Initial Reaction: The sex isnt the best, but the movies a heck of a lot of fun. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who thinks a good laugh is just as important as the sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants nastier sex and raincoaters Audio /Video Quality: For a ten year old movie, Arabian Nights looks and sounds better than a good portion of the movies that are made today. The audio is presented in 5.1 surround sound, which amazed me since the movie is old enough that porn fans were thinking two speakers was a darn good move up from the speakers on their TV.

Review brief: Running Time: 120 min. Production Date: 12 / 2000 Director: Jules Jordan Cast: Lexington Steele, Adriana Sage, Alexandra Nice, Justine Romee, Leanni Lei, Taylor St. Clair, and Jules Jordan Initial Expectations: Ive heard fantastic things about this series for a long time (not like I ever hear bad things about Jules Jordan), and finally broke down and bought it with high expectations. Initial Reaction: What can I say? The midget makes damn good porn, and Lex is one hell of a leading man! Who Should Watch It : Fans of interracial, anal, and gonzo sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants their porn slow and soft Audio /Video Quality: The audio is pretty clear and well balanced. There are a few background noises, but they fit in with the setting and are always during the opening tease portion. The video is also very clear. Theres barely any sign of grain, but the lighting does change frequently. This is nothing new for Jules Jordan, who uses both light and shadow to great advantage throughout his movies.

Initial Reaction: I like it, but it has a different feel from many of Roccos other features due to a few risks he takes. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting natural women who enjoy getting their bum boffed Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for porn with that soft tender moment that makes you feel like a human Twinkie Audio /Video Quality: Normally Roccos features hover just a bit above the standard gonzo feature for technical aspects. Thankfully this one is a bit better. Most of the audio is clear and well balanced. Theres a few background noises here and there, and a little bit of the audio thats poorly balanced, but most of it is handled quite well.

Im expecting it to happen again here. Initial Reaction: Its typical Rocco and Kelly. Who Should Watch It : Fans of nasty sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks Vivid is just a little too rough Audio /Video Quality: As frequently happens with Roccos features, the audio is often a bit muddy and slightly off balance. The video also has a slight grain similar to if the feature was shot on film, a few shadows here and there, as well as a few flashes of remnants. Its a bit above typical gonzo, but not up to my normal expectations for an Evil Angel feature. Music: None.

Directed by: Bruce Seven
Review brief: Running Time: 69 min. Production Date: 1995 Director: Bruce Seven Cast: Summer Cummings, Skye Blue, Ivy English, Kaitlyn Ashley, and Bruce Seven Initial Expectations: Im going in with very high expectations after being very impressed with Forever Payne. Initial Reaction: Its another great bondage feature from Bruce Seven. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for some well done bondage with a nice variety Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants bondage where it looks like everybodys always suffering. Audio /Video Quality: Bondage features are notorious for bad technical aspects (so far, I think the only one Ive seen thats much above average is Pandoras Affliction). Forever Pain is no different, but since its an older feature and done during one of the lower points in porn I wasnt expecting this to be anywhere close to average. The audio is often muddy and frequently a little off balance, which makes it hard to understand much of the dialogue. The video is a little grainy and has quite a few remnants.

I cant not have high expectations! Initial Reaction: I gotta see more of Bruce Sevens work! Who Should Watch It : Anybody who likes bondage Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants their porn soft and cuddly Audio /Video Quality: Bondage features are notorious for bad technical aspects (so far, I think the only one Ive seen thats much above average is Pandoras Affliction).

Review brief: Running Time: 73 min. Production Date: 10 / 1999 Director: Michael Zen Cast: Chloe, Lauren Montgomery, Sky Lopez, T. J. Hart, Ken Ryker, Jon Eric, T. J. Cummings, and Rick Chase Initial Expectations: I thought Id start my third year of reviewing with something more than a little different. Ive heard a lot of good things about this feature and DVD, which gives me some hope, but as a straight guy Im a little nervous about watching my first bi feature. Initial Reaction: It seems like a gay movie with a few women thrown in. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who wants a bisexual film that leans a little towards the gay side Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a very well balanced bisexual film Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are near perfect. The video is crystal clear through almost the entire feature and has very few shadows. The audio is almost as clear, but there is an instance or two where you can hear the stars being given directions clearer than you can hear the stars themselves.

Hart, Devin Wolf, Lee Stone, Evan Stone, Erik Everhard, and Marty Romano Initial Expectations: Alexa had some good stuff when she first came out, but seemed to go down hill the longer she was around. If it wasnt for the other girls here, and most of the male cast, I wouldnt have much hope for this one. Initial Reaction: Its pretty typical Fred Lincoln, which means pretty average stuff. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for a stereotypical porno Who Should Avoid It: Raincoaters and anybody who wants a feature that tries to be something more than average Audio /Video Quality: The audio is normally very clear, but unfortunately there is a bit of dubbing thats pretty noticeable. Theres also a few areas that are slightly unbalanced. The video is also very clear, and doesnt have any shadows which get in the way.

Initial Reaction: Its fun and has some good sex, just like porn should. Who Should Watch It : Couples, fans of literature and porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for more extreme sex and raincoaters Audio /Video Quality: The audio is normally fairly clear, but a little on the low side. Theres a little bit of dubbing, as well as a little background noise, but neither interfere too much with the scene. For being shot on film, the video looks great. Theres some shadows, but they appear natural and dont make things as fuzzy as film often can. The lighting is a bit on the low side for many of the scenes, but Im guessing this is intentional to create a bit of the mood.

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 really hoping this one is as good as my other Kick Ass experience. Initial Reaction: Its a lot of fun and pretty hot too. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for fun sex and who likes girls in glasses Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks heat is dependent on the number of cocks a girl can take at one time Audio /Video Quality: The audio is pretty clear, but there is a fair amount thats slightly unbalanced. Theres also a couple spots that sound like it might be the stars being given directions, but its low enough that I couldnt be sure. The video is much the same.

Who Should Watch It : Couples and fans of Wickeds contract girls Who Should Avoid It: Raincoaters and anybody looking for more extreme sex Audio /Video Quality: The audio feels a bit hollow through much of the feature, and theres also a bit that appears dubbed. The levels also appear to vary a bit, as does the balance in some of the scenes. The video has slight grain and a few shadows, but is clear right out to the edge. Neither the grain or the shadows interfere too much, with the video ending up just a touch above average.

Im hoping for more of the same here. Initial Reaction: Its very well done and very artistic, but the heat comes and goes during the scenes. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who likes artistic and loving sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody needs women slapped around and degraded to get off Audio /Video Quality: The audio is fairly well balanced, but on the soft side. There are very few non-sex portions to the feature, but when there are, the balance is much better. The video has a soft feel to it, almost as if the feature was shot on film and handled very well.

Initial Reaction: Its very different from most adult films you might watch, but has some great sex. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who doesnt want extreme or nasty sex, but does want something very unique and with a dark edge Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks couples sex has to be boring and tame Audio /Video Quality: The audio is very clear and well balanced through most of the movie, but the final scene is a little off balance in a couple places. The video appears a little off, but its consistent enough to appear to be on purpose. The proportions are off on everything, so that everything looks a little stretched out.

It gives the feature a bit of an artistic feel and doesnt detract from the feature at all.

Turning her loose with a top notch company like Wicked should be a heck of a good thing! Initial Reaction: Its a good feature, but although Katja is in every scene theyre frequently stolen by her partners.

Who Should Watch It : Fans of all girl action, fetishwear, and anybody who likes Privates Pirate series but would like something a little lighter Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who doesnt like all girl action, toys, or fetishwear Audio /Video Quality: The audio is normally very clear and well balanced. There are a couple minor spots, however where the audio disappears for a split second. It wouldnt even be noticeable except that it happens while Layla- Jade is getting spanked. The video is also very good.
