Sammie Rhodes, Vibratex’s Rock Your World and Vivid’s New Starlets

Spotlight Performer: Sammie Rhodes

Sammie Rhodes burst onto the adult scene in very visible way last winter. Between the months of October 2004 and January 2005, Sammie's luscious blond locks and absolutely gorgeous natural breasts landed her on the cover (solo covers, mind you) of at least 17 different adult releases from an huge array of different studios.

She may not have been the most experienced performer in the adult world, but those smoking hot looks and natural tits were a major reason for her sudden visibility. Sammie made her debut in Shane's World:
College Invasion 5 - a personal favorite: Sammie plays the innocent college girlfriend that wants to tape her lovemaking for the first time. Sammie also had standout boy-girl scenes in Elegant Angel's Not Too Young for Cum, Colossal Entertainment's 2 Chicks and a Cock, Digital Sin's Craving Big Cocks 4, and Platinum X's Sperm Smiles 1.

Then something happened and the lovely Ms. Rhodes started disappearing from DVD covers. What happened, you ask? Well, Sammie got herself a boyfriend and stopped doing guys on film. Bummer, right? Absolutely. To this day, she still only does girl-on-girl, showing off her body and oral skills in such films as Finger Licking Good, and Cousin Stevie's Pussy Party 11, where she brings Angela Stone to a volcanic squirting climax.

Sammie makes an appearance (albeit a girl-girl one) in Digital Playground's highly anticipated upcoming film, Intoxicated,
which includes Devon's very first anal scene. We can only hope that it's just a matter of time before Sammie returns to doing guys on film again. Until that time, you can catch her in some girl-boy action released in late 2004: Photographic
Mammaries 3, Naughty College School Girls 36, and Teen Tryouts 37.

Highlights of The Week

Vivid Entertainment was on quite a role this week with three separate titles featuring their hottest new contract starlet Lanny Barby. For those of you living under a rock the last several months, she's a gorgeous brunette with ice blue eyes and a body designed for pleasure. Unlike contract performers of the past though, she has no limits and seems to prefer doing anal over anything else. The titles in question were: Sunny where another new hotty for Vivid, Sunny Leone (Penthouse Pet of the Year) joined Lanny for some heated play; Groupie where the cutie backed up Tawny Roberts for some bone-stroking fun; and Skin on Skin where director Chi Chi LaRue showed Lanny could turn the heads of the dead with two scenes of prick pleasing pleasure.

Fans of comedy porn will no doubt remember last year's hilarious send up of cable's Reno 911 by Wicked Pictures director Jonathan Morgan called Valley 911. The story of a group of mixed up cops drew howls of laughter from fans, enough to get the company to commission a sequel, Internal Affairs. The cast is joined by Stormy Daniels playing a rookie cop whose ability to crash cars while putting on make-up and getting domestic disturbances resolved with some old fashioned loving were second only to Julia Ann's talent's for fighting crime in a manner we all wish took place in the real world. Look for a cameo by KSEX DJ Wankus as a driver stopped by the two for drunk driving and made to perform a series of impossible sobriety tests.

Colonel Mustard noticed that Robinson Crusoe On Sin Island "is a fantastic blend of big budget porn and super hot sex. The production values are the best I've seen, the locations are unique and appealing and the women make up an incredible collection of super hot European (and Caribbean) women." While not the even more incredible Collector's Edition, it sounded like the movie hit a chord with our two reviewers for the kind of quality Private can knock out when given the chance.

As one of our most anticipated titles in recent weeks, reviewer Don Houston was jumping for joy to see Sex Pix arrive in the mail last week. The second in Red Light District's trilogy by director James Avalon, the movie showcased the lovely Sunny Lane as she tried to figure out how she lost her memory and why everyone wants to play with her luscious body. Avalon proved that Darkside was no fluke and that he could handle all of the directorial duties this time, shooting the movie with a HD camera to improve the picture quality substantially. The sex was also up to RLD's usual standards of hardcore so no one should miss this intriguing story presented in a two disc set.

For fans of lesbian antics on the small screen, there was Pussy POV, a collection of hotties licking and playing with each other in ways that men can only dream of doing; all with the favored POV camera style in vogue these days. Ian said it best with: "Each of the girls represented on this release is hot as hot can be and the majority of them are quite enthusiastic to be working with one another..." Is there any doubt that this will work for your personal pleasuring sessions?

In a blast from the past, our own lovely Goldenmuse took a look at Immortal Desire and found a lot to like when she pointed out that: "My favorite adult classic is "Immortal Desire," an erotic masterpiece directed by Philip Christian. It stands on its own as an erotic classic; a love story in an industry of sex stories." Considering it's available so cheap at Empire, maybe some Christmas shopping is in order for your significant other?

Fans of hardcore gonzo productions weren't left out in the cold this week either with star driven flicks like Nikki Hunter's Psychotic, Katsumi's Dirty Deeds, and Mason's Sluts all available if you look hard enough. Each manages to push the limits of good taste far beyond what many communities would consider acceptable in an attempt to capture the circus act sex market. If you're looking for something to show at a bachelor party that'll be remembered for a very long time, something to prove porn hasn't lost its edge, or just in need of the kind of smut that far surpasses the porn your dad used to watch; any of these titles will do the trick. Just be careful since each of them is in very bad taste and might prove addictive.

Two of the more offbeat titles this week were Ball Honeys and Reverse Gang Bang. The first referred to "BALL's" as Black, Asian, and Latina's while the second showed that a movie could provide just two scenes and still be fun (as long as the action involved a group of ladies catering to the whims of a single male that is). Both go to prove the old adage that variety is the spice of life with some potentially new kink for those in the market for it.

Another way to get some diversity in your porn viewing life is to watch compilations of scenes hand selected for quality and offering up some decent value. Reviewer Namrufmot thought both Bucking Blonde Bottoms and Sex Addicts hit the spot when he watched these two releases by Simon Wolf Bold with one focusing on blondes with nice asses and the other on younger gals well known these days in some of their earliest scenes. While Simon Wolf makes mostly compilations these days, they were quite a hit generator in recent years so the scenes probably reflect that fact.

The rest of this week's highlights were all gonzo and vignette series releases of varying quality. Their names were as descriptive as you'll need, to figure out if a particular title is meant for your shopping list. With minor quirks or variances in the advertised action from time to time, all of them were the kind of smutty porn that you'll hide when company comes over for the holidays, unless you're staging an orgy or have very enlightened friends. Check out Cum In My Ass Not In My Mouth 4, Ass Slaves 3, Ass Wreckage 2, White Hot Nurses 8, Bikini Banger 2, Whore Gaggers 6, Barely Legal Corrupted 4, Swallow My Squirt 2, Face Blasters! 2, Teen Hitchhikers 7, Bang Bus 8, Ass Parade 4, No Cum Dodging Allowed 6, Fresh New Faces 6, and Just Another Whore 2 if you're looking for something down, dirty, and perverted to enjoy this season.

Adult Toy Talk: Vibratex's Rock Your World

When I first started reviewing adult toys my expectations weren't all that high. I figured I'd get the opportunity to try a few things out, give things like The Liberator and Body Bouncer a spin and finally see if the $200 Eroscillator was worth the money. At worst, I thought that testing out adult toys would be a lot of fun and at a minimum a great excuse to have more sex with my partner. I was absolutely not prepared for some of the pretty phenomenal things that have happened testing these toys out. The other week I was blown away by the near screaming orgasm my parther had using The Eroscillator, never in a million years thinking that anything was going to top that experience. And then...we tried Vibratex's "Rock Your World". Let me tell you, there's a reason why Vibratex has called this little puppy "Rock Your World".

At first glance the vibe looks very similar to the rabbit vibes which have become extremely popular (for a good reason). The head of the dildo is able to rotate while the little butterfly vibrates providing perfect clitoral stimulation. The thing is, this puppy is perfect. It provides exactly the right things in the right places, at the right time with some pretty mind-blowing results. The first time out my partner experienced not one, not two, but three back to back orgasms (a first for her). The next time out we managed to hit four back-to-back orgasms, and then on subsequent outings she's 'lost count' (always a good sign).

I know that some guys worry about bringing a toy like Vibratex's "Rock Your World" into the bedroom, that somehow the toy is going to somehow supplant or replace what you can do in the sack. Nothing can be further from the truth. Using a toy like this on your mate can be an explosive part of a really fantastic night of sex, and anything that enables a woman to be multi-orgasmic and have a fantastic time is a very very good thing. Be sure to read more adult toy reviews at AdultToyTalk.com (which just got a very high rating on Jane's Guide).

The Gonzo Corner: Elegant Angel Round-Up

In this week's short dedicated to the exciting gonzo genre, we're going to review some recent and past favorites from studio Elegant Angel. They offer porn enthusiasts a chance to see some truly hardcore action. A lot of their content focuses on fetish acts such as squirting, creampies, swallowing, swapping, oral gangbangs and so on. For the most part, I'd say Elegant Angel does a solid job at it. Usually when I'm done with a DVD from them, I'm smiling. Here's the skinny on three Elegant Angel DVDs I really have been enjoying lately.

Sperm Swappers is a fun gonzo release with lots of threesome action. In each scene two girls double team one lonely guy. There are a total of 5 scenes with 10 babes and each scene is pretty hot. The format has the scenes opening with some light girl/girl play and ending with the girls taking the pop shot in their mouth and swapping it with each other. Of course there is plenty of straight sex mixed in. I'm not a huge fan of cum swapping, but these scenes are still incredible. A note worthy scene has Tiana Lynn paired with Eva Angelina. These girls play very nicely together and it includes with some delightful fluid swapping that you won't find in most releases. This scene alone makes this DVD worth picking up. I can't tell you how many times I've had the pleasure of watching it. The other four scenes offer some pretty steamy action with the likes of Tory Lane & Melissa Lauren, Sandra Romain & Dillian Lauren, Cailey Taylor & Carmen and Poppy Morgan & Victoria Sweet. Anyways, Sperm Swappers is a must-see-DVD for porn enthusiasts.

Suck It Up is not your average gonzo release. There is very little sex in this release. Instead, there are several oral gangbangs with a few short sex stints in the mix. The feature stars 7 gals who spread across 6 scenes. The chicks take on a small group of guys (3 or 4) and the action concludes with the babes swallowing cum shots. I'm not a huge fan of swallowing, but the action that builds up to this act is pretty heated. The girls get down right nasty with lots of deep throating and gagging. The cast includes girls like Tiana Lynn, Flower Tucci, Roxy Jezel, Alex Devine, Jersey Jackson, Tyla Wynn and Vivian West.

Cum Craving Teens #2 is a rather clean and straightforward gonzo release with five young looking babes in action. The DVD as a whole isn't particularly strong, but it is definitely a grade above other teen-oriented porn releases. The real attraction to this DVD comes from Eva Angelina, a stunning beauty with an incredibly busty rack. She has a tremendously hot scene and I find myself watching time and time again. Other gals like Destiny Deville and Finess Navaro offer some passionate and exciting scenes. Cum Craving Teens #2 isn't fantastic, but it delivers enough excitement to make your money count.

For more DVDs from Elegant Angel, X Critic recommends looking at Cum Drenched Tits #1, Cum Drenched Tits #2, Big Wet Asses #4, and Glazed & Confused #3. Also be sure to check out X Critic's complete review catalog of Elegant Angel DVDs.

Overlooked Titles You May Have Missed

Reviewer Namrufmot stated it best when he stated the following about The Anal Interpreter: "Fans of Seymore Butts will want to pick this up without hesitation. For people who want to get a sense of what Seymore is all about, this release would make a good start. Cute girls, hot action, and classic Seymore Butts camerawork all add up to a "Highly Recommended" rating." With that kind of recommendation, old Seymore has plenty to be thankful for this week.

Reviewer Don Houston caught on to the point of view (POV) craze when he watched POV Fantasy 2 and commented that "…was another winner in my book since it delivered the goods consistently and did so without relying on star power as the previous edition did. The gals had a lot of fun too and all gave a slightly different interpretation of what it takes to skillfully milk a nut…" and "There are other POV releases on the market worth your time and money but don't overlook POV Fantasy 2 or you'll be missing out on a class act.

Reviewer Michael Vega thought Assparade 3: Latin Asses to be something special, summing it up with "Even if you're not a religious person, you have to admit that one of the greatest gifts to the male species is the Latina ass." His only point of contention was that the ladies weren't given as much time as he wanted to properly show off their so-called ass-ets for the camera but even then believed them to be worth a great rating with a "pretty sharp" picture and audio that was "clear".

Riot Sluts! 2 also "struck a chord" in a movie that showed director Mason's kinkier side where she "prefers to focus on slapping, spanking, spitting, and balls-to-the-wall boning as her calling cards, making no apologies for the fact that she, as a woman, can be just as hardcore as any male director in porn today". Don summed up Mason's attitude when he pointed out how she "has done as much to fuel the fires of the previously mentioned discussion" on rough sex.

Reviewer Rob Randell sure liked Twisted Vision 2, saying that "The two scenes with Tory Lane and Nautica Thorn alone make this DVD worth picking up. The additional scenes make it even more enjoyable. If you think point of view sex or just good looking babes and a bit of role playing fun, then this DVD is worth checking out." As well as how much he enjoyed it. With a solid cast of talented girls offering up their first hand experiences to director Michael Stefano, is it any wonder he got off to this one?

Titles We're Looking Forward To

With recent releases featuring the lean hotty Keri Sable like Eternity and Sold, it should come as no surprise that her latest title, All About Keri, should be on the short list for several of our reviewers. Combining youth, sex appeal, and an all natural body in a field crowded with implants, Keri stands out from the crowd and is the perfect girl to work with Wicked Pictures' newest contract director, David Stanley. Look for this one to come along soon!

Another stunning contract girl, Briana Banks, is the focus of the next upcoming title we're looking forward to: Stunner. With movies like End Game and Briana's Back Yard BBQ to showcase her abilities, Vivid might just have another hit on their hands as the busty blonde struts her stuff once more to prove that the title is simply a case of truth in advertising.

Director Erik Everhard, still pumping out the hits for Red Light District before moving on to Evil Angel, offers up the next title we're hoping to review: Anal POV #3. With value packed double disc editions like Cum in My Ass 4 and Jailbait 2 as representative of what the man can dish out, the series has proven to be a star maker in the past though this volume might be different since most of the girls are already highly regarded in the field of hardcore porn.

Last but not least, our reviewers are looking forward to the latest offerings by the talented Seymore Butts, including both his spoof on the Digital Playground hit Pirates, titled Butt Pirates of the Caribbean and his homage to the perfect ass of Flower Tucci in Flower Power. Each title features Flower and a cast of hot young ladies willing to put their ass on the line to entertain the fans so how can we not be looking forward to them?
