Extra's: 2 dvds (one with the weird commentary track), audio commentary track (IN FRENCH) with Melanie, who was also doing it while in a large box in the lower right-hand corner. If you though those watermarks some companies have used were lame, this was worse. Luckily, it was just on one disc and not both. There were three interviews, IN FRENCH, one for Melanie, Estella, and Eva, trailers, a photogallery, a Behind the scenes feature (IN FRENCH), a short on the Berlin equivilent of AVN's annual industry show, a cute condom commercial, a double sided dvd cover, a Wicked Pictures catalog in the dvd case

Condoms: Yes

Audio/Video Quality: The picture was presented in 1.85:1 ratio widescreen and looked very good. The colors were accuaret and I saw no major problems outside a little pattern interference and grain. The audio was presented iwith several choices. The clearest was the 5.1 Dolby Digital track in French. The English track, a weak dub, was fair but too much of the time made little sense. There were other language tracks too but I have no familiarity with them.

Body of Review: Marc Dorsel's deal with Wicked Pictures allows the two companies to pool resources when distributing feature porno movies. Both companies made solid releases so it makes sense for both to do this. In the latest Dorcel release, Hot Frequency, the story deals with a gal, Melanie, who is working at a radio station that changes formats to a sex-talk show in order to cash in on the craze for such shows. There wasn't a lot of story here so that should give you an idea as to what's going on. I'm sure it made more sense in French but, like the extras (that were all in French), you'll have to take that up with Dorcel. Here's a breakdown of the scenes as closely as I could get them (some cast names weren't accurate for the dub):

Scene One: Cyntia, a very lean blonde with a talented tongue, took on the muscular Pascal in his office. The two enjoyed some minor foreplay before she blew him, warming him up for the ensuing straight sex. It was short but somewhat energetic.

Scene Two: Petra, a gal with short brunette hair, did Eric, in a radio station room after masturbating a bit. After oral and straight sex, the two engaged in anal but she didn't appear to enjoy it much.

Scene Three: Anastasia, an okay looking blonde, and Pascal in his office. He sure got a lot of action in this office. The sex wasn't bad

Scene Four: Lisa, a cute blonde with a lean body, and Pascal in his office. (Note to self: get office in radio station to attract blondes). The sex was more playful here and fun to watch.

Scene Five: Estelle and Melanie in a loft. The scene was short but sweet and the two had a good time with oral only.

Scene Six: Amelle started to masturbate while describing her past experience when Max and Annabelle went at it. The rest of the cast had a simultaneous orgy in the radio station at the same time. Like most of the show, oral, straight and anal were the key forms of sex.

Summary: I think the sex was okay enough to rate this one as Rent It but I'd have been willing to bump it up at least one notch if the extras were in English or offered English subtitles. It was okay in general but not Dorcel's best work and the director really needs to focus more on what he's doing to make better movies.
