Parker’s Picks: Underrated Porn Scenes

Porn fans, I love you, but sometimes you drive me crazy. I'm talking about low member ratings. Usually, your top picks are pretty good, but there are a lot of underrated porn scenes buried by poor user ratings!

This month, I'm looking at you Vixen fans. Greg Lansky launched the Vixen network with Blacked in 2014. Today, the project spans eight sites and has produced some of the most spectacular porn in the past ten years. But new fans are likely to overlook these underrated masterpieces.

Here are my top underrated porn scenes found on Vixen Plus+

Janice Griffith and Mick Blue: "Do I Have Your Attention?"

Flirty, fashionable, and phenomenal, Janice Griffith slays in her collegiate soiree with the college dean, played by Mick Blue. Directed by Derek Dozer, "Attention" represents the change in style from former Vixen runner Greg Lansky's white-on-white to the more multifaceted visions of Dozer, and others. You can see it in the fashion choices--Griffith sports a Parisian bob-cut and her stunning red dress pops on screen.

Part of Vixen's Icons Vol 2, I called it "one of the hottest scenes to hit Vixen all year." It's truly beautiful and highlights Dozer's attention to detail. Every frame is perfectly filmed. You could hang it on the wall as-is. It's that beautiful.

This is the film that put Janice Griffith on my radar. Of course, I had heard of her, but her natural and seductive work with Blue forced me to pay attention to her scenes. Her active fucking, multi-tiered stripping, and masterful emoting drive this one home. The way she tosses her hair, tenses her abs, and rolls those eyes will make you feel every thrust. And then there's the way she punctuates her moans with little laughs. "Attention" is a blast!

Kissa Sins and Juan Lucho: "No Games"

Kissa Sins was on fire in 2018! She had just completed Jules Jordan's The Corruption of Kissa Sins, which featured her first male-female sex scenes featuring other men, not just her husband Johnny Sins. Fans, studios, and everyone in porn were begging to see how her incredible brand of hardcore would mix with the variety of male porn talent on hand. And boy did she deliver!

In her Vixen debut, Derek Dozer cast her alongside tattooed bad boy Juan Lucho. "No Games" is hypnotizing from the start, featuring a nude Kissa Sins firmly planted atop a Sybian sex machine. She powers herself to a stunning orgasm in no time, and you can appreciate the hours she's put in at the gym as those muscles involuntarily flex. That's just in the first five minutes!

Once Lucho enters the scene, it's a full-on Kissa hardcore fuck-fest. Now this was exciting when it came out, let me explain. First off, we had never seen Kissa fuck any other guy before! Each new leading man was an exciting and fresh mystery just waiting to reveal itself!

Beyond that, Vixen was always the soft and delicate side of Lansky's empire. How would such a hardcore queen fit into this landscape? As it turns out, she fucked like a beast, and her hardcore style flowed perfectly with Dozer's wistful filmmaking.

The hardcore nature of "No Games" ruffled some fans' feathers, and it was voted down aggressively. Worse, it was never featured on a Vixen DVD release. Despite all that, "No Games" rocks, and remains one of Vixen's most underrated porn scenes.

Little Caprice, Tori Black, and Marcello Bravo: "Sugar Daddy Sharing"

At the height of Tori Black's comeback, Vixen's Laurent Sky paired her with art-porn power couple Caprice and Marcello Bravo, a real husband and wife duo.

I had been a fan of Caprice and Marcello's since the very start, dating back to Caprice's earliest solo and girl-girl films. A beautiful and sexually free couple, Caprice and Marcello were renowned for their efforts to elevate porn, making what they refer to as "more than porn." When you add porn legend Tori Black to the equation, the result is extraordinary.

The setup is a lot of fun, featuring Caprice and Black eating pussy and making out while trapping Marcello in the shower. It's a subtle nod to the cuckolding fetish, but he gets to participate before long, receiving blowjobs, and fucking masterfully.

Two things stand out in "Sharing." One, Tori Black's cunnilingus is off the charts. She doesn't just lick pussy, no, she revels in it. Every time her mouth approaches Caprice, it's a new and voracious experience.

Then, there's "the look." It's a blink-and-you-miss-it little break of character that adds so much to the performance. Here's the setup: Early in the scene, Tori is feasting on Caprice's pussy. All the while, Marcello is ramming her doggystyle. Right then, Tori Black's superstar power dawns on them, and the couple share this look that conveys just how incredible of an experience this is. I'm not talking orgasmic, it's like they're star-struck. And the sex gets even better as time goes on. There's another part like that, where Marcello sucks Tori's clit to a speedy orgasm, and she slumps over and smiles, exclaiming "He's fun!"

If you're looking for an intro to Caprice and Marcello, this is it.

Jillian Janson and Rob Piper

Rob Piper leads Jillian Janson through the perfectly paced glam anal scene. Released in 2014, then again, as part of the film Black and White 2, it's Greg Lansky's filmmaking at its best. It's so good, that Janson and Piper were nominated for Best Sex Scene by XBIZ, and Fleshbot's John Boy called it "a hot one," in his XCritic review.

The film takes its time, focusing on Ms. Janson's personal experience and orgasm. In that way, this is reminiscent of the orgasm studies of Ron Harris and Petre Hegre. I like how the sex opens with slow, romantic thrusting into her pussy. A nice touch, as so many anal scenes are all too happy to jump straight to the ass.

It's so cool to see how Jillian manages her orgasm, especially in anal missionary. She's constantly masturbating and edging herself for the entirety of the scene, only delegating fingering duties to Piper moments before she cums, always keeping intense eye contact with her lover.

Janson fans know that her pussy swells like no other--it's a spectacle and highlight of any Jillian scene. So when you see her lips expand, you know it's on! That's where it gets really cool, with Piper fucking her pussy hard until she squirts! Several thrusts later, he cums inside with such force that it backfires, blasting from her pussy and glazing the top of his shaft! Cooler still, Piper uses his still-erect cock to rake the cum to the base of Janson's pussy, and then he gently fucks her, pushing it back in.

Sydney Cole, Isiah Maxwell, and Jovan Jordan

Sydney Cole gets a spit-roast threesome in a woefully underrated porn scene with Isiah Maxwell and Jovan Jordan. Despite an 8.1 rating from Blacked members, it went on to receive critical acclaim for its part in Interracial Threesome 4. Cole's sexual antics were "another sizzler!" according to a review by John Boy, and fellow industry critic Cyber5 called it "Highly Recommended."

It's a scene I like to listen to loud. Lansky strikes the perfect balance between her incredible moans and those slurpy/slappy sounds of sucking and fucking. The dirty talk is great too!

Cole goes nuts in this one, fully understanding her role in tying the scene together. She never lays there, idly getting fucked. Instead, she's all action, with intense hand jobs and blow jobs on one end, and an athletic tendency to fuck back hard on the other.

She looks great too. Nude, save for a white pair of high stockings, you can see her flowing hair and reflective piercings. At all times, her eyes are locked on to her guys with ferocity and intensity. This is an experience.

Don't Trust the Ratings

Look, user ratings are a helpful guide, especially if you're a new paysite member, steering you to scenes that are likely pretty good. But a lot of ratings are biased toward newer scenes and current stars, leaving a lot of scenes hopelessly underrated and buried.

But there's a lot of wonderful porn out there just waiting to be discovered. There's more to it than just the hits, and if you take a deep dive you just might find some hidden gems.

Happy New Year, and Happy Porning.
