The Movie:

The premise behind this 1979 offering from director Philip T. Drexler Jr. is a simple one, but it works. In a nutshell, Serena plays a French Contessa with a taste for all things carnal. To satisfy her urges, she uses her wealth and influence to host orgies but soon finds she has the travel bug and she starts searching out fantastic sexual encounters the world over. While in New York City, she meets a rich magazine publisher and in each other they find the perfect partner – willing to experiment and try anything once.

Scene One: Serena And A Guy Serena and her friend move from the piano room to the bedroom and there they start to kiss. They strip down and Serena sucks his dick for a bit, before they move into sixty-nine position that seems to be more mutually beneficial. From there he mounts her and fucks her missionary style. She gets on top and rides him cowgirl style, finishing the scene.

Scene Two: Samantha Fox And A Guy In her office, Samantha seduces her boy toy by stripping down until she's completely naked. She starts to suck his dick until he's good and ready at which point he blows his load all over her face.

Scene Three: Erica Matthews And Jack Teague Erica and Teague are flying around in a helicopter when the mood hits him. She obliges him and goes down on him while they're up in the air and he finishes by jacking it into her face and mouth.

Scene Four: Erica Matthews And Jack Teague Once they land, Jack gets horny again and she opens his fly, whips out his cock, and gives him another blowjob. He lies her down and fucks her muff missionary style then he gets her on all fours and fucks her cunt from behind. She lays on her back again to get back to basics and he finishes by pulling out and coming on her face.

Scene Five: Merle Michaels, Bobby Astyr And A Guy She shows up at the garage while he's working the gas pump. She attracts him by taking off her top and he starts sucking on her tits. Bobby Astyr shows up and goes down on the girl, then they stand up and she sucks both of them off. She keeps the other guys cock in her mouth while Bobby fucks her in the ass, and she takes a wad in her face and some goop on her ass to finish the scene.

Scene Six: Serena, Samantha Fox And Herschel Savage Serena and Herschel start the scene together when he drops his pants and she puts his cock in her mouth. Herschel eats her pussy and then Samantha shows up and takes over where he left off. He goes back and fourth, fucking one and then the other, mostly in missionary and doggy style action, before pulling out and whacking it all over Serena's stomach.

Scene Seven: Arcadia Lake And Serena While hanging out in an RV having fun, the two girls get in the mood. They strip down, and start stroking each other over their breasts and thighs. They kiss deeply and tongue each other over their nipples, and then Serena goes down on Arcadia who isn't so shy that she won't use her fingers on herself to keep things moving. Soon Arcadia returns the favor, and they both come.

Scene Eight: Arcadia Lake And Eric Edwards Eric Edwards had been watching Arcadia and Serena through the window in the last scene and he got understandably turned on by their lesbian high jinks. He comes inside and Arcadia lifts up her skirt so that he can spank her plump little ass. She gives him a pretty serious blowjob and then he gets her to bend over the table so that he can fuck her in the ass. He bumps and grinds her in the poop shoot for a bit before pulling out and pulling off on her rump.

Scene Nine: Samantha Fox And A Guy This scene isn't even a minute long, it's simply a clip of Samantha on her back on the desk in her office getting fucked missionary style by an unknown male performer.

Scene Ten: Serena, Ron Jeremy, Two Other Guys Serena gets chased into a bombed out warehouse by Ron Jeremy and two other guys dressed as bikers. They rape her there (it's part of her fantasy and she's a willing victim in the context of the story), by stripping her down and eating her ass and pussy from behind. Ron forces her to give him head and then one of the other guys puts it in her mouth while Ron fucks her pussy doggy style. The one guy comes in her mouth and then the other guy moves in to blow his load. Ron pulls out and comes on her ass.

Scene Eleven: Serena, Merle Michaels, And Two Guys This scene takes place with two couples in two different rooms, but they more or less play out the same way. Kissing starts things off which then leads to some heavy petting. They strip down and the guys get their cocks sucked by their playmates. Serena rides her man reverse cowgirl then gets off to finish him with her mouth and take it in the face. Merle blows her man, plays with his balls, gets down on all fours so he can eat her from behind, and then he fucks her sideways for a quick period of time before pulling out and coming on her pussy.

All in all, Blonde In Black Silk is a pretty solid late seventies porno. The sex is steamier than usual and more plentiful and most of the scenes are a little longer than some of the other adult movies from the time and are also quite well directed. The film benefits from a great cast, some fantastic inner city NYC locations, and a fairly decent plot.

The DVD

Video:

This fullframe transfer looks surprisingly sharp and colorful and the picture quality, for an old XXX film from 1979, looks surprisingly good. There are some specks here and there as well as a moderate amount of grain but this looks to be a film sourced transfer and not a VHS or tape source. The unfortunate decision to add a 'Video X Pix' bug in the bottom right hand corner of the image during a few key scenes is also a strike against the disc, as it is a little annoying when it continues to pop up, but other than that, the black levels stay strong, the skin tones look natural, and while there are a few scenes that look a bit on the soft side, overall this is a nice picture.

Sound:

The Dolby Digital Mono soundtrack is a little muffled and not of the best quality, but again, it's taken from a tape source so the limitations of the older technology are going to be there when that's the case. Dialogue is pretty easy to understand, however, and the background music comes through reasonably clear. There aren't a lot of sound effects used in the film, mostly just some random moaning and groaning during the action scenes and these are handled just fine, as are the talkier bits of the movie.

Extras:

The disc doesn't come with a whole lot in the way of extra features but there are two trailers tucked away neatly underneath the menu screens. First up is a trailer for Bon Appetite and A Girl's Best Friend. There's also a still gallery of random old school porno starlets in action, in addition to chapter selection and animated menus.

Final Thoughts:

Good sex, a fun cast, and a decent plot make Blonde In Black Silk a worth addition to the collection of any old school porno aficionado. Video X Pix's presentation is far from perfect but it's watchable and the disc comes recommended.
