Hey, how's it going,

Mr. Pete's directorial debut with Mayhem just came out recently and I happened upon it, soley due to the presence of budding anal queen Haley. Haley is one of those odd girls who started out boy/girl right away but did some tame traditional scenes before Skeeter Kerkove talked her into doing anal. Ever since then every single scene she has been in has been an anal scene. It's an odd path many pornstars travel (is Cynara Fox going that way?). But back to the point:

The tape is not that bad. Brandi Lyons starts it off hot enough in a one on one and then follows with a facial from 3 different performers. Then Haley comes up in a frustratingly brief scene. Then Kaylnn and Honey. Etc. Etc. Etc. It is good. However, it is by no means Mike John. Mr. Pete ain't got the point of view thing down yet but it is a good start. Here is my problem...the box clearly states on the lower corner of the front cover that the running time is over 2 hrs. and 20 minutes. That is the golden time that Anabolic/Diabolic and RedLight have made the standard. Well, I watched this tape. It is only 1 hr. and 50 minutes long. It is blatant false advertizing. I'm assuming that if anyone tries to defend this they will say that with the additional footage (bts, interviews) from the dvd that it does reach that running time. That would be crap. This tape's box is intentionally misleading and while the actual product is okay I thought some of you might like the warning.

Many people will argue the running time, from start to finish. My question is... If the film was advertised as 110 minutes would you still have picked it up? Anabolic was early on the 2 hours and 20 minutes thing but for the second time I give credit to Ed Powers. I personally would rather watch a good 90 minute film rather than a two hour and twenty minute film filled with filler.

it's as simple as this:
shoot whatever you want for whatever length of time, starring whichever performers you choose.... BUT .... please don't advertise it and then not deliver.

i have seen movies where a title like "all girls love anal" or "every girl loves to swallow" would lead me to believe i am going to see something specific in each scene, only to find some performers or scenes do not live up to that billing. i've heard of movies which advertise a performer on the box cover or cast listing yet the performer does not appear in the movie.

i agree with EagleSpirit .. a movie's running time is insignificant as long as the movie is worth watching ... but to me, inaccurate advertising is the worst offense a porn company can commit.

Not everybody can shoot POV the way Rodney Moore can, he's the real king of POV. POV only works if the director knows what he's doing.

And I also hate the fact when the boxcovers lies about the running time. It has happened many times and I'm not just talking about 2 or 3 minutes.
