Audio/visual quality: The camera style is pleasing, with smooth pans connecting a variety of interesting angles. The lighting and focus are competent, and there's a balanced blend of wide, medium and close-up shots. The only visual flaws I've noticed are a few sporadic artifacts. The music is fun and appropriately themed to the scenes.

Directed by: Jim Enright
Review brief: Cast: Stephanie Swift, Kylie Ireland, Kimi Lixx, T.J. Hart, Nikita Denise, Mia Smiles, Steven St. Croix, Dillon Day, Dale DaBone and Evan Stone in sex roles; Anthony Crane in a non-sex role. Director: Jim Enright Production date: 7/18/01 Length: 87 min.

Audio/visual quality: The visual quality is generally appealing. Close-up footage is almost too ample, but the pans and wider shots provide some balance. The art direction is beautiful, with attractive sets and gorgeous costumes that hark back several centuries. During the day scenes, natural sunlight splashes across the performers' bodies; during the night scenes, the lighting is subdued yet adequate.

Audio/visual quality: The movie is visually attractive, with eye-pleasing sets and quality camerawork. The pans are particularly well done, and the blend of long, medium and close-up shots feels just right. In keeping with the mood of the movie, the lighting is rather low (but not so low as to obstruct the view).

Studio: Wicked
Starring: Michael J. Cox, Kelsey Heart, Ian Daniels, Kyle Stone, Missy, Mr. Marcus, Mickey G.
Directed by: Jonathan Morgan
Review brief: Cast: Missy, Mickey G., Kelsey Heart, Mr. Marcus, Ian Daniels, Kyle Stone, and Michael J. Cox in sex roles; Anthony Crane, Scotty Schwartz, George Kaplan, Jonathan Morgan and others in non-sex roles. Director: Jonathan Morgan Production date: 3/5/99 Length: 113 min. Extras: 18 min. behind-the-scenes featurette, 5 min. interview with art director Anthony Crane, six audio bios (Missy, Kelsey, Mickey G., Mr. Marcus, Ian Daniels, Jonathan Morgan), five trailers, two slide shows with 51 photos total, French audio track and various Wicked Pictures promotional materials. Audio/visual quality: In contrast with the dark subject matter, the visual quality of this movie is soft and painterly. Some scenes are saturated with sunlight, an artistic decision that does not interfere with my enjoyment. A few special editing effects (color shifts, increased grain, enhanced motion) have been employed where appropriate.

Starring: Michael J. Cox, Ian Daniels, Inari Vachs, Chris Cannon, Mickey G., Gwen Summers, Renee LaRue, Alex Foxe, Devinn Lane, Ava Vincent
Directed by: Wesley Emerson
Review brief: Cast: Devinn Lane, Ava Vincent, Renee La Rue, Inari Vachs, Gwen Summers, Alex Foxe, Chris Cannon, Michael J. Cox, Mickey G. and Ian Daniels. Director: Wesley Emerson Production date: 7/18/00 Length: 83 min. Extras: Full motion chapter indexing, commentary by Devinn Lane and Wesley Emerson, 17-min. behind-the-scenes featurette, 15 trailers, 6 audio bios, slide show with 31 stills, plus various promotional materials for Wicked studio. Audio/visual quality: The focus is slightly soft in places, but overall quite good. Lighting is adequate. Crew members are infrequently visible along the edges of the set or outside the windows. Enhanced motion appears here and there. A strong and typically fast beat drives the music. The "dance floor" groove is occasionally not to my taste, but overall, it's very listenable and well-balanced with the sex sounds.
