Directed by: Sal Genoa
Review brief: This long-running Anabolic series has, over time, become a rather mundane franchise for a once pioneering studio. This edition offers more of the same (young girls, chemistry-free face-griding clusterfuckage), but there's an AMAZING scene with Tony T. and Maya Hills that I can't get enough of ... one of Maya's more ecstatic onscreen moments, and one that even Tony T-haters will enjoy.

Directed by: Belladonna
Review brief: Call it Belladonna's Sexual Disorder: Gnarly mental hospital sex, dripping mascara, and burlap sack blowjobs add up to shock treatment for the gonzo genre -- and any strokers at home who are weak of heart or stomach. If you're not a fan of Bella's alternative porn stylings, with her fetish for pink toenails and oozing visceral goo, as well as some of the loudest throat-fucking permissable by law, then you'll want to stick with Naughty America and holding hands with your church-going girlfriend. If you're a sick f*cker like me, even what seems repulsive here casts an unsettling allure. Also, there's the matter of that Iberian bottle rocket named Rebeca Linares. Her relatively "sane" scene put us over the top, baby! Now give us our medication already and we promise to be good.

Review brief: fast, cheap, etc. ... really, really short reviews of sinematic sleeze! ... by skronker ----------------------------------------> Standard fare from Rocco-as-director: Pretty Euro Babes get the bejeezus banged out of them in multiple combinations by the usual wrecking crew, led by Omar Galanti and Michael Chapman crazy as ever, and wearing the same top hat he donned for Those Fuckin' Nuts, a much better effort from what is apparently the same stretch of shoots. If you like the Initiations series, this comes close. The girls are compliant, if bland, and one of them will surely yank your crank. The petite blonde, who has sex with each of three cocksmen in the opening run of chapters, then takes a massive dildo in her ass before vanishing, was my favorite so much so that it's a shame she didn't see more action.

Review brief: THE WILD, THE INNOCENT, and THE "I'VE GOT A BABY DILDO IN MY ASS RIGHT NOW" SHUFFLE: THE ETERNAL PERMUTATIONS OF JOEY SILVERA'S SERVICE ANIMALS 22 ----------------------------------------->>>>>>( l ) Wild to imagine, fair reader, but Service Animals, Joey Silveras signature line, is up to its 22nd volume. Whats even wilder is that the title remains the best single series in gonzo porn, and the latest is one of the best in the series: a two-disc affair that celebrates creative risk and diversity in a realm where most shooters are content to put talent through the motions and scenes roll like clockwork, same as any desk job. Now, SA22 does not rank quite as highly as SA10 or SA11 or maybe even SA16, at least not in terms of a singular galvanic scene full of eruptive moments that blow your mind, although, sweet ever-lovin' Jesus of Nazareth suckin' on a cherry popsicle stick, it comes awful damn close.

Directed by: Doug Sakmann
Review brief: I've been a fan of Joanna Angel and her website Burning Angel since awhile before the "alt.porn" craze got going. I live in Brooklyn, and sometimes go to her nabe, Williamsburg, to drink, and ran across a bartender who was talking about Joanna and the site. It turns out the bartender is actually ON the site, so i decided to investigate. I really enjoy the approach, almost in the old, "hey kids, let's put on a show," but with piercings, tattoos, and real cumshots. Since then, a lot has happened for Joanna, and while she seems to have triggered the strange affections of Luke Ford, as well as the requisite backlash, I think it's all pretty funny. People take this shit too seriously. All the footage on this DVD comes from the site. The "Re-Penetrator" clip is a featurette that spoofs the Stuart Gordon horror classic "Re-Animator," in broad, campy terms (and considering how campy the source was, it's pretty campy). To be honest, I don't find the scene interesting or sexy.

Directed by: Rocco Siffredi
Review brief: Rocco's Big Mess really is ... a big mess. But for a certain kind of porn consumer, it will be both a big surprise and an enjoyable excursion into realms of sexuality that are fairly outrageous for meat-and-potatoes heterosexual viewers. No spoilers here, fear not. Let's just say that roughly half the on-screen fucking falls into the orgy/gang-bang/reverse-or-perhaps-forward-and-then-reverse-heading-sideways-in-fourth-gear gang bang categories, and that not all the female talent is limited to the usual EuroBabe flesh parade. Michael Chapman, my single favorite male performer, plays a wacky shrink who must be disabused of his erotic obsession.

Directed by: Eon McKai
Review brief: Many Are Alt, But Few Are Chosen: Eon McKai's "Neu Wave Hookers" Back in 1985, the Dark Bros. New Wave Hookers was one of those inevitable porn jokes. It spoofed pop culture with its premise of two deadbeat pals (Jamie Gillis and Jack Baker) who get baked one night while watching a skinflick and imagine themselves as pimps running a stable of new wave hookers (so-called, because of Bakers genius discovery that otherwise innocent girls could be turned into raving sluts if they listen to too much new wave music on big clunky headphones. Hey, porn is all about fantasy!). With a soundtrack by the Plugz, a classic DP scene by 80s porn It Girl, Ginger Lynn, and the soon-to-be-controversial casting of secretly underage Traci Lords, New Wave Hookers put the Darks on the map, and created a porn-hipster cache that director Greg Dark would continue to work decades later as a producer of rock videos (ultimately signaling porn's definitive seepage into mainstream pop consciousness, and positing Britney Spears in schoolgirl drag as the true inheritor of Traci's jailbait divadom.

Review brief: FAST, CHEAP and OUT OF CONTROL! sinema reviews by skronker Lately, has porno been bumming ya out? I know the feeling. Gonzo used to be like punk rock, right or Italian Neo-Realism, or white trash cooking. Yknow: Take whatever elements are at hand, dont sweat the technique or the fancy trappings, and just go for the gut. As much as porn can be about truth, with its fake tits, fake orgasms, and fake human beings trying to fool us all into believing they arent robots, there was a brief, shining moment when gonzo offered something different. A glimpse, and a glimpse only, perhaps, of a moment of pure feeling. It still does, from time to time, and it does more often than not when John Stagliano is behind the camera. These days, gonzo translates as cookie-cutter yellow couch porn, and functions all too predictably as an efficient way to produce lots of shippable product for studios/distribution companies dependent on a steady cash flow.

Review brief: FAST, CHEAP and OUT OF CONTROL! sinema reviews by skronker Who knew what mutant strains of pornological deviance would be spawned by the simple blowjob movie? There are gagging movies and head-upside-down-pistoning movies. There are movies in which cum must be swallowed and movies in which cum must never be swallowed. There are movies where no male face is ever seen, and movies where many males faces are seen. There are blowbangs that never lead to any other sexual act, and blowbangs that lead to gangbangs. There are polite one-on-one scenes scored to jazz-lite soundtracks against gauzy scrims, and there are slap-happy fusillades of facial abuse punctuated by loudly miked slurping action. Who knew there was such infinite variety in such a simple gesture? These days, it seems, even signature-type directors are inaugurating BJ lines.

Review brief: FAST, CHEAP AND OUT OF CONTROL sinema reviews by skronker Wassup with this alt-porn business anyway? Over the past few months, there's been a growing buzz about the genre -- mostly generated by LA art-school grad Eon McKai, whose Kill Girl Kill series injects a dose of underground style into the ol' in-'n'-out. My enthusiasm for McKai has dampened a bit since he apparently got through college without learning how to spell, and gets more mileage from the excellent design folks he hires to work on his title sequences and DVD packaging than he does from actually being a great shooter, but I still think his movies offer something a little different. I was way more impressed with what his "protege," Joanna Angel, came up with for her VCA debut. With Joanna's Angels, New York-based scenemaker claims the form for her own.

Directed by: Joey Silvera
Review brief: FAST, CHEAP AND OUT OF CONTROL Sinema reviews by Skronker Joey Silvera is one of my favorite pornographers -- probably my single favorite -- because he really has a knack for setting up kinky little scenarios and letting performers forget they're performing and just have fun. He zeroes in on parts of young women's bodies you wouldn't think a porn director would care about, like bellies and biceps and, gee, their personalities, and he encourages role-play in an environment that has a touch of the polymorphously perverse. It's not just a parade of grimly determined robo-studs homing in for the lickin' and stickin'. (And if, perhaps too often, Joey is compelled to hire male talent from the "second tier," I'm continually surprised at what he's able to capture from even grimly determined robo-studs with the charisma of lawn furniture.) In fact, the male talent often finds itself in trouble. That starts with a T, as we will soon learn by the way -- yet we digress. If I could pick any porn-world to live in, it would be Joey's.

Review brief: FASTER, CHEAPER, EVEN MORE OUT OF CONTROL! really, really short porn reviews by skronker Since this much-buzzed about title has been reviewed pretty thoroughly already, I just wanted to throw some quick comments in. My interest was sparked by the idea of Terri Summers, the uber-cute Euro Babe who previously hasn't been known for getting very close to an onscreen cock at all -- let alone six of them! -- taking the pivot point in a gang bang. I love Terri's look: She rates, for me, as a "too pretty for porn"-type porn star, a classy brunette with subtle implants (B cup) and a fetching trim figure, a bewitching smile and the kind of eyes that would light up the night during a lunar eclipse. It's a decent scene, especially for her "first time," but fairly tame for the theme.

Review brief: FAST! CHEAP! AND OUT OF CONTROL! Sinema reviews by Skronker Gangbang Auditions was a staple of my MomnPop porn era, which was oh, say about five years ago, back when Id pay a couple of weekly trips to the video hutch down the corner and stock up on anything new and nasty, which then always meant titles from Anabolic, the Buttman-Rocco axis and lotsa Up N Cummers/Dirty Deb volumes. Yeah, even some Max. Diabolic, Anabolics parallel imprint, established Auditions as one of its signature lines: Perfect for viewers like me who wanted to like straight-up gang bangs but cared not for the parade of pud-pulling meat puppets idling about for the bangee to free up an input or two. One babe. Five cocks. Surely, this is as nature intended. That was then, however, before the DVD era came to porn, before that handy little video hutch became a cel phone outlet, before 5-on-1 type scenes proliferated across Porn Valley like smuggled uranium from the former Soviet Bloc. These days, every studio frontloads its arsenal with highly radioactive multidude sperm missiles.
