Review:
Things are certainly not as they seem in “White Witch”, an exceptionally gritty, mind-bender of a flick from Wicked Pictures and director Scott Allen. Indeed, James Deen plays the role of a low-end private investigator who has been hired by Nick Manning—a man who’s as egotistical as he is wealthy—to find someone named simply “R. Morris”. Having but 24 hours to do so—and extraordinarily little to go on—James ultimately seeks out the services of Asphyxia Noir, a so-called “white witch”. The gripping and sinuous storyline that unfolds from there is nothing short of awesome, as the audience is left guessing until the very end as to what’s fully going on. Complementing this mystery is an excellent cast, strong acting, and a unique filming style that manages to capture the essence and realism of the sex in both its soft- and hardcore form. The chosen camera angles are atypical yet effective in this regard, as is the choice of subject matter. (For instance, a well-filmed fist reaching out for a shower wall can be just as successful in evoking passion as a hardcore penetration shot…perhaps even more so.) I don’t know who Scott Allen is—as this appears to be only his second film—but he is shaping up to be a master of his craft. Do not miss this one.
In terms of the sex, Scene One pairs up Nick Manning, an arrogant rich type, with his eerily subservient lover, Skin Diamond, in a scorching locker- / shower-room bang-out. This one actually gets started as Nick and James are finishing up their business, with Skin taking down Manning’s pants and pleasuring him orally. James is relatively unperturbed by all of this…despite the spectacle unfolding before him. It’s after he makes his exit, however, that the good times really roll. The erotic encounter that ensues transitions from the locker area to the shower stalls (with the water running over the couple) and features a variety of realistic oral (face-fucking, spit) and vaginal action. Skin takes a facial…which she follows up with a swallow…in closing out this passionate and sexy ride.
In Scene Two, James catches up with his sole “resource”, Chanel Preston, who plays the role of his information-gatherer. Meeting up in a cheap hotel room, Chanel delivers the goods to James both figuratively (in terms of his case) and literally (in terms of her body). Indeed, it doesn’t take her long to exact payment for her valuable services, and he’s more than willing to oblige. A raunchy oral (face-fucking, throating) and vaginal romp rolls out, with the proceedings once again caught on film in a realistic and innovative manner. James hoses down Ms. Preston’s face, mouth, chest, and breasts in finishing off this fine fuck (oral cock clean-off).
Scene Three brings together Some Dude, an apparent acquaintance of James, and a hooker, Bridgette B, whom he picks up out on the street. The two make their way to Some’s office for a good time, but they stop short of actually entering, as Bridgette seems excited by the prospect of possibly getting caught. Within moments, her red micro-skirt is hiked up as she straddles Some on a chair in the waiting area…and his cock ends up in her mouth. They go at it there for a bit before finally transitioning to the office itself, with some sexy captures through the translucent door just prior to entering. The same effective camera style is employed here as in the prior sequences, and it again works to good effect in snagging the sex (oral and vaginal) that unfolds. This steamy bump-and-grind culminates in Some dropping one on Bridgette’s pelvis, tummy, and chest out of missionary. Good stuff.
In Scene Four, James Deen sneaks into the white witch’s (Asphyxia Noir’s) place, searching for answers. (It’s his second time there, though the first without her formally knowing of his presence.) When she ultimately finds him, it seems as though she has been waiting for him all along, as she’s dressed in lacey, white lingerie, red thigh-high stockings, and white knee-high boots…and she certainly isn’t surprised. Asphyxia seduces James with ease, and—almost as though he’s possessed—he dominates her whilst doling out a powerfully passionate pounding (oral and vaginal). This one is a true scorcher, and it would really be nice to see Asphyxia in more roles like the one here, as she has the perfect vibe for such. James spurts and leaves her a gooey, sticky mess…which she samples…in capping off this heavy fuck. Hot!
Scene Five finds Skin Diamond dripping wet as she catches James Deen from behind in Asphyxia’s bathroom, after he has returned to her place yet again…this time in a desperate state (*no spoilers*). She grabs him, kisses him feverishly, and takes him with what can only be described as a demonic passion. Pleasuring James with her mouth, hands, feet, and pussy, Skin is something else here…particularly when the two hit the shower in the room. As with the other sequences, the camerawork is both unique and effective at evoking a sense of realism, which goes hand-in-hand with the gritty themes of the plot. Ultimately, James penetrates her anally over the sink and upon the toilet…and, in relatively short order, splooges all over her face and chest. What happens next shall be left unsaid, but—suffice it to say—it’s an awesome ending. Exceptional scene, too!
In all, this is an exceptional flick featuring a riveting and compelling plot, an outstanding cast, and generally-scorching sex. Scott Allen—whoever he may be—is showing himself to be quite the director, and—of his two films thus far—this is the best. While devoted fans of gonzo might wish to look elsewhere, anyone else—particularly devotees of features—will be missing out if they don’t pick this one up. It's certainly worthy.
