| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | I did a search for this, and nothing came up... Most other boards I participate in have a thread devoted to recently seen flicks -- I figured The Feature Side could use one so we can get little reviews of features -- new, old, and otherwise. People around here always seem up for suggestions, and sometimes it feels like no good new features are being made, so this might be a good way of quickly giving a thumbs up/down/middling. The most recent features I saw were actually re-viewings of a couple of early-80s classics: Hot Rackets and Taboo II. Both great films, and both have that hard-to-capture mixture of being thought-provoking, compelling, sexy, and frivolous. I hope this thread takes off... [Link] |
| T0MBOne Senior Member 1200 Posts 5/08 | I'll start with Chuck Vincent's BAD PENNY (1978) with Samantha Fox. It's one of those New York set flicks that's more than a bit silly but worth seeing for Sam in a number of scenes. Beware of Molly Malone as an evil auntie, who ends up like Wiley Coyote by the finale. Sam's scene with a grungy work guy is the hottest as she gets things going by having him put his dirty paws all over her shoulders and white dress---!!! 1/2 |

| BlackSix All-Star Member pornography wasn't sex but fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world 12377 Posts 9/07 | Recently rewatched Oriental Techniques in Pain and Pleasure, a sleazy and goofy S&M film by Phil Prince from the early 80s. It features Annie Sprinkle, George Payne (relatively minor role) and the amazing Mistress Candice. There's barely any real narrative and some tasteless, less than convincing and misogynistic 'rape' scenes but the film seems to reserve it's most extreme 'punishment' for the men: Annie is 'forced' to anally fist her 'brother' and then inserts the biggest dildo I've ever seen (it outdoes anything in a Belladonna video) up this fellows ass as well. Not something you see everyday. Strangely enough she also licks her 'brothers' balls at the same time! This is then followed by an extended dom scene with Mistress Candice and Alan Adrian. Lots of cock slapping and clothepins to the balls in this scene, topping if all off with an extended golden shower by Candice onto Adrian. Kinky as all get out. |

| BlackSix All-Star Member pornography wasn't sex but fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world 12377 Posts 9/07 | A decent little melodrama from Cecil Howard (shot by Anna Riva, aka Roberta Findley), it gets by on period charm and the performers, as the script is pretty threadbare. Jefferey Hurst, who also did some early Chuck Vincent films and is a pretty good comedic lead in the Harry Reems mode, is a political science student (!) who falls for his professor's (played by a non-psycho Zebedy Colt) mistress (Jean Dalton) aka Georgia Peach or Mishou. To get nearer to her he dates the professor's daughter (the very cute and natural Hope Stockton) who seduces him by asking him after his corny joke if 'I can suck your cock.' The whole film is told in flashback as Hurst brags to his buddy Mark Ubell (actually Chuck Vincent himself apparently!). There's a pretty good twist at the end, although it could have been set up better. A nice bathtub masturbation scene by Dalton is the erotic highlight imo. There is only one completely unmotivated sex scene that brings the film to a screeching halt before the pay-off of the end, which is pretty good by porn feature standards. The most absurd scene is when Dalton tells a story (shown in surreal flashback) to Stockton about being 'raped' by three farm boys when she was a girl, of course she ended up enjoying it. Stockton's delivery of the line after the story 'I always though rape would be disturbing and unpleasant' is inadvertently funny as it points up the stupidity of the very idea of 'enjoying' being raped. It's as if Howard and company knew how stupid this porn trope of the era was but still had to play to it for the raincoaters. Of course, the lesbian scene that soon follows has to have Dalton declaring 'Of course I would prefer being with a guy if one was around' just before she seduces Stockton. It's too bad Stockton and Dalton didn't go on to make many more films past the late 70s. Edited by - BlackSix on 11/28/2010 10:14:42 PM |
| T0MBOne Senior Member 1200 Posts 5/08 | I watched THE BLONDE (1980) with Annette donning a blonde wig to a play an actress approaching a movie producer making a bio-pic of a deceased blonde bombshell named Valerie. The actress looks like Valerie so she and her agent show up where the producer is scouting locations for the film. A solid premise but the follow-through is disappointing. At the center is a terrific seduction and sex scene with Brooke West and David Morris in the hotel kitchen area. Annette hooks up with Mai Lin then a guy for the finale---!!! |
| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | Then, I started watching the latest Digital Playground blockbuster Body Heat, thinking it would be silly fun. It was pretty dead serious -- not bad, but I'll save it for an early afternoon watch. There is a frankly hysterical scene of bomb defusing a la Hurt Locker featuring Manuel Ferrara -- I haven't seen the whole movie, but I feel confident recommending it just to see this scene. In general, the whole enterprise seemed promising. Kayden was acting everyone off the screen as usual. So...I haven't seen an entire feature in a while. Hopefully that will change soon -- I have a stack of dvds including The Twilight Zone parody and Danish Pastries. |
| saratoga120 Senior Member 1404 Posts 5/05 | In it she's both scheming and innocent and you know she's going to get banged hard by the end of a scene -- you're just not sure how she's going to get there. Particularly of note -- not that it's shot all that well -- is the foxen one crawling beneath a table at a dinner party of four sexual-orientation-questionable fops and taking all of their cocks in her mouth. A star was porn in that instant. |
| Cuddly Wombat Senior Member Just another bare bum in the shiower 1739 Posts 12/04 | It is a good movie though in terms of the sex - every scene was solid (although I would have thought they could have been more inventive in the lesbian orgy in a fire station - no use of axe handles or hose nozzles |
| Aplus Senior Member 1431 Posts 5/05 | Really doesn't appear to be that many features being made these days outside of parodies. Great to see Paul Thomas back at it though. |

| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | Favourite things: face-"rape" by grapes and red wine (actually kinda brutal and shocking); hamsters standing in for mice, and a guinea pig standing in for a rat. I know my rodents and cavies, and they ain't fooling me. Oh, and I found it a bit odd that the dvd blurb was an entirely lifted segment of prose from Robert Rimmer's review of the film. Is that something you're supposed to credit? Edited by - Gore Gore Girl on 12/4/2010 2:06:18 PM |

| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | I also watched the Jack Wrangler starrer Heavy Equipment (1977), originally 3D (and you can still see the double lines in the 3D segments, which is more fun than annoying). A dweeb wants to be a hunk, and in a Jekyll and Hyde type transformation, drinks a potion and turns into Jack Wrangler. He proceeds to go around fucking a bunch of people (including Al Parker). I loved this film. It was amazing. |

| BlackSix All-Star Member pornography wasn't sex but fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world 12377 Posts 9/07 | There are a few ambiguous scenes of sexual violence and forced sex in this film, and the film is an odd mixture of discontent (aka. Linda William's 'bad sex') and more positive sex scenes, but few other features are as effective in communicating a range of emotions through several different sexual scenes as you see here. The range of views about what the film is about in imdb reviews suggests just how much of an ink blot this film really is for the viewer. Myself, I'm not quite sure what the film is 'saying' (it's attitude to sexual 'liberation' seems much more conflicted than usual in a xxx flick) but the very fact that you have a xxx film trying to say anything at all suggests just how ambitious Spinelli was at this point and time. |

| Michael Saint Photographer Alexis Texas is always lovely 1062 Posts 2/01 | Luckily I had GGG's warning about it not being what I was at first expecting from Robby. Normally his movies are really fun but this one while it had it's moments was a serious drama all the way through. The bomb scene was pretty funny. I wonder if there were some time constraints there. Robby is usually a perfectionist and that scene played out like he was pressed for time. Kayden really showed herself as an actress here and while the material was serious Jesse and Riley's easy going, funny attitudes came through. As weird as it sounds I think the G-G scene with all the DP Contract stars to close out the movie was probably the weakest. I liked the set-up and all but it just seemed out of place to me. The editing and the heat in it never seemed to flow or catch on. It was just a mish-mash of hardcore images of women having sex on the back end of the fire truck. Why they did not use the cab, top, ladder, etc I don't know. Though some of Robby's trade mark humor did shine through in points. Did anyone else notice who the "firefighter" was who Jesse complained had beat her out for the calendar last year? ...Tera Patrick. |

| Michael Saint Photographer Alexis Texas is always lovely 1062 Posts 2/01 | Interesting, at first I was a little put off with Nick Mannings acting but once he got into character of "The Bat" he did a fairly decent job. Unfortunately I think this one lost some points with me because just about all the sex scenes were orgies. There was Nick Manning's 3-way to start things off and then Madelyn Marie's 4 way but other then that large groups. So if you aren't into group sex this may not be for you. Plus they also made the (in my book) cardinal sin that a lot of Hollywood studios do with Super-Hero movies. They tried to put too many characters into one title: The Bat Robina Katwoman Jokker Poison Ivy Two-Face Batwoman If you like the genre (superheros) and like group sex scenes then this might be your movie. |
| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | Last night I watched two films: Sexcapades (Henri Pachard, 1983) and Games Women Play (Chuck Vincent, 1981). Sexcapades was frankly amazing. The tone of this film is impressive, and this might be the most integrated sex/narrative film I've ever seen. Eric Edwards does a really impressive job in the lead role, and there was a ton of visual, verbal, psychological stuff to get your teeth into -- I loved it!! Games Women Play was decent -- probably not fair to watch it after Sexcapades, but I couldn't wait. Jack Wrangler was adorable as usual (even though he kinda played a baddie), and his scene with Merle Michaels where he ends up sobbing was pretty intense. Good stuff, but not the best. (Probably still head and shoulders above many of the films out there though). |

Gore Gore Girl,what did think of the office scene between Sharon Kane and Lee Carrol? In my opinion it's second only to the scene between Jesie St.James and Geogina Spelvin in Anthony Spinelli's (R.I.P.) Easy as far as girl/girl scenes go. Eric Edwards,I could go on forever and tell you why he's so great.At the top of the list he was a favorite of Cecil Howard my all time favorite director and he cast Eric quite often in the lead role and he would always turn in an excellent performance both acting wise and sexually as well.As is Cecil Howard's last directing project for his company Command Video was a 4 part shot on video and told in 4 parts called The Last X-Rated Movie.Eric Edwards was cast in lead and definitely one of the very few actors that could have pulled this off and hold your interest at the very same time.It was told by using a lot flashback and repeated itself quite often which for the story was necessary.Also considering it was a 4 part series it had a rather small cast.Eric Edwards was absolutely brilliant here and nobody could have done a better job.I would one tape after the other just to see the final outcome. Great Sexpectations the follow up to Sexcapades is as good to some even better. A definite must see I own it on VHS. My first time viewing this was in 1987 at the Pussycat Theater in Santa Monica California it was part of a double feature it played along side Taboo 4 another film I own on VHS. |
| john lyons Senior Member Co-founder of Vinegar Syndrome 1188 Posts 1/08 | Although not as good (or as heavy) as its sequel, NOTHING TO HIDE, Spinelli continues to prove he's one of the finest actor's directors to ever work in XXX. |

More on topic, I recently watched Expose Me Lovely, previously cited by other posters. I had read some lukewarm comments on it before but thought it deserved better than that. Its one downside: Ras Kean had to carry the show as he was the narrator and was in nearly every sex scene. Unfortunately, I felt his acting wasn't quite good enough to completely pull it off. However, the movie had an interesting and complex (if not especially original) story, a wonderfully gritty, atmospheric look and feel, and very good sex scenes. I especially loved the touching scene with Kean and Jennifer Welles as his ex-wife, plus a great bit of wild sex with Jody Maxwell, and a lovely, erotic scene with ... I forget her name, but the woman who hired Kean to find her brother. |

| saratoga120 Senior Member 1404 Posts 5/05 | A porno film about making a porno film, and an exceptional one at that. Henri Pachard was in that next group of directors behind Cecil Howard who knew how to spend money in procuring great talent both on-camera and off. This is a gorgeous picture to look at -- and not just because of the likes of Kelly Nichols and Honey Wilder captivating the camera. This is Kelly's show and you see both the entire range of her eroticism and her beauty in this movie. Whether radiating sophistication and elegance or earthiness, Kelly reminds you that there was a time when X-rated movies were this close to gaining widespread acceptance. If movies like this were still made today, they just might have been able to crossover. Heck if Chloe Sevigny can give a blow job, Chelsea Blake could have aroused more than just raging hard-ons in the movie-critic community. Kelly and Chelsea reprise their incredible chemistry together which also could be seen in "Jailhouse Girls" from the same year. Kelly has just been fucked on the soundstage with her husband Eric Edwards calling the shots. When Chelsea drops in on their home a few hours later, Kelly turns the tables and orders the submissive Chelsea to drop down on her knees and suck her husband's cock. Whether Kelly is doing this to maintain the marriage's equillibrium or simply to satisfy her own kinky desires is open for interpretation, but it isn't long before her clothes are off and she's working over her pussy on the sofa as Chelsea engulfs her husband's cock. As jaw-dropping as Kelly looks in a black crewneck sweater or with a veil and a chic hat (two earlier looks in the movie), she demonstrates that she also doesn't wear it well. Her tits -- always a major part of her appeal -- look absolutely huge as she spreads her legs and sinks into the leather sofa, her hand furiously mining for pussy juice. Chelsea, it seems, likes a little quim chaser after wolfing down cock and crawls between Kelly's legs. Kelly makes her eat her pussy just the way she likes it and as a movie star she is quite the imperious bitch. Chelsea is all too happy to oblige this Venus' fur and gets to enjoy Eric's cock in her ass at the same time. When they've all gotten off Kelly sneers at the submissive Chelsea dismissively. And talk about chic, Kelly wraps her sweater across her shoulders and around her neck. Very preppy! Except that her tits are still swinging freely beneath this Waspy wardrobe cliche! The movie also features the lovely Honey Wilder who gets her share of cock and pussy as well. This is an erotic masterpiece and is a must for anyone who seeks to fill their library with porn that has a very refined edge to it. |

I'm in agreement with the late X-Rated Film Historian Jim Holliday (R.I.P.)Exposed is the best X-Rated film about the making of an X-Rated Film.Great Sepectations and Sexcapades aren't far behind. Saratoga excellent review of Great Sexpectations you have me wanting to watch it all over again.I could go on and on what an excellent film this truly is I won't due to the fact that Gore Gore Girl has just ordered it so I'll save that for later date. |
| Michael Saint Photographer Alexis Texas is always lovely 1062 Posts 2/01 | Excellent job by everyone on both of these movies. I can see why part 1 did so well last year. Part 2 kept the trend alive, totally different set up but still a good story and very well put together. I might add these to my list of movies I would be willing to recommend to new viewers. Also watched Ashylnn Brooks directorial outing Red Riding Hood XXX. Believe it or not this was a very well put together little feature. Lexi Belle is Red. Juelz Ventura showed that she is a lot more then just a pretty face and I hope to see her in some larger acting roles in the near future. My only warning about this one is the final scene with Kristina Rose. Sexually it is your typical Kristina off the charts hot but from a plot standpoint it made no sense. I got the impression the movie ended up not being long enough so they just crammed another scene on the end. |

Took 27 years to find her after that, but find her I did and received the same treatment. The things we do for lust . . . |

As for Ms Magnificent, that is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. Desiree was in her usual ditzy splendor, and I loved Holly McCall as well. Enjoy! |
| Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09 | As for Barbara Broadcast, alpha: "lack of substance" is what I recall from the 30 mins I put into it. That said, your little write-up sounds like something I would say, so I look forward to watching it again but in the usual high quality of Platinum Elite. |

At one point, Gillis remarked, I believe (it's been awhile since I watched this), on Annette Haven being approached unsuccessfully to do the commentary. Didn't Ms. Haven become something of a post-retirement recluse? Do any of you know much about her since she left porn? (I know, base curiosity on my part; but I am sure I'm not alone in thinking her the most beautiful adult movie star ever, and she is my third all-time favorite, as I once noted at indecent length in another old thread.) Oh, one additional thing about Ms Magnificent: not wanting to lead anyone astray, I should emphasize that calling it a guilty pleasure suggests I liked it perhaps more than it warrants. It is a fairly cheesy movie not on a par with the best of the era. I just thought it very fun in a silly sort of way. |
