Extras: The only extra I cared for was the 2:30 minute long Behind the Scenes feature by Dave C. that showed what was going on behind the scenes of making the movie. There was also a 5 minute long look at how the series began in the first place, a short documentary seen previously in some volumes of the series, starring Clive McLean. There were also trailers for Hustler titles, a slide show, and some spam with the cover sporting a second side that displayed related titles in the series.

Condoms: None

Cassidy Morgan

Audio/Video Quality: Barely Legal 94 was presented in a fetching 1.78:1 widescreen color by director Erica McLean for Hustler Video using the AVC codec; a standard on Blu-Ray discs; the standard definition version in MPEG-2 with the usual 480p resolution compared to the 1080i resolution of the high definition version, partially made up for by the SD's anamorphic nature). My knowledge of the SD version of the title allows me to compare the two; it lacked the better resolution and purity of fleshtones this version had, the bitrate often hovering around 15.2 Mbps area compared to less than a third that in the SD version which seemed to hover around the 4.6 Mbps mark. The use of video bothers some folks but it suited the nature of the show far more than film would have and the contrasts were all enhanced by the high definition approach. There were no obvious compression artifacts, no grain to speak of, and I saw no macro-blocking or other issues that pop up; thanks in no small part to the proper lighting applied here. The summation of the visuals is that they made the show look better than ever, my sole complaint being that the composition of the camera angles and editing, while good, did not seem to be the best way to enhance the looks of some of the ladies. The gals were all generically lean and youthful as the series promotes but minor flaws and blemishes did not seem to be handled as well as some of the older volumes in the series, relatively minor quibbles considering how much more resolution the new format offered up for my inspection. The audio was presented in a 2.0 Dolby Digital stereo English using a 224 Kbps bitrate at 48 kHz in the Blu-ray version but the bitrate was a mere 192 Kbps in the SD version (very little difference). The vocals on the scenes were flat and even in most cases, the voice-overs sounding somewhat warmer in tone and always easier to hear, and the minimal music seemed to come from the stock library used for years by the series. In terms of upgrades then, the visuals got the largest boost by a wide margin with the aural capabilities once again cleaned up but only slightly (and in the BTS, I could barely hear the gals speak on occasion).

Missy Stone and Tommy Gunn

Body of Review: Erica McLean is best known to many people as a director for Hustler Video, having stepped into the mighty big shoes of her husband to helm the ever popular "Barely Legal" series after a myriad of others simply did not work out. Using the approach Clive applied to the show, she sticks to limited setups and youthful ladies, rarely deviating from the formula that worked so well in the past when she was his assistant. Her latest volume in the series is Barely Legal 94 (Blu-ray) and SD, the cast including a range of youthful gals but all of the young ladies looking...well, young if not completely lean. One of the most consistent things about the series is that most of the ladies appearing in the vast library of volumes coming out over the years is that they are generally all natural (no implants), easily portray a youthful image (even the ones in their twenties), and see fairly inexperienced. While there were only five scenes in the movie, all of them had some appeal too so if you like newcomer women, you will almost certainly enjoy this one. I have a mixed response to such titles and want to keep my biases out in the open though, either version of this title suited for those of you that are into young hotties with limited performance skills. Here's a brief look at the scenes by cast and action, noting that no condoms were used for those still interested:

Emma Heart

Scene One: Security Slut: Kelly Skyline, a cute little blond with a love for men in uniform, was up first with security guard Jack Spade. Kelly has been around for awhile but was appealing enough, lacking enough muscle tone to make her a major hotty but with enough baby fat to convince those that haven't seen any of her dozens of performances that she is "new". Jack thought she was shoplifting so he had her slowly strip her clothing off, the inspection leading to his clothing coming off too. While he looked creepy and about fourth tier quality as a performer, he did fit the role of a cop wannabe well enough, Kelly's trigger set so light that he was "good enough" until she got the real thing. She slobbed his flaccid knob to erection, apparently enjoying how small it was as she licked him all over, maintaining some eye contact as she continued rubbing herself. He ate her out with less success and then the two vaginally screwed, Kelly passive unless she was on top of him. Jack unleashed his genetic juice onto her face and she gave him his comeuppance in semi-humorous manner.

Scene Two: Fitting Room Fuck: Emy Reyes, a skinny Latina that I haven't seen all that often, was up next sucking off muscular Talon, little build up provided as she aggressively inhaled his meat pipe. I'll admit that she wasn't my type physically (I like more curves) but she did add some enthusiasm to the action, doing him in the dressing room (like the last scene had been done). She was an active vaginal rider from the beginning but seemed to be nervous too, the lack of chemistry limiting the replay value but as short as the scene was, it worked okay. Emy drained his balls dry and he rubbed out a wad of population pudding to her face, the scene closing out as she took him to the back one last time.

Scene Three: Video Vixxxen: Cassidy Morgan, a skinny but older looking woman with brunette hair, was up next on the couch with Sascha as the two of them watched her first paid for porno (it was a "Barely Legal" title of course). The onscreen action was better than the event between the pair, Sascha fingering her as she blew him with her white shorts around her thighs. His cock was too large for her to suck more than a few inches so they moved to vaginal screwing, Cassidy bouncing on his pecker quite actively when she was on top of him. Otherwise, her generic moans were weak and her performance was kind of obvious, not sharing anything with the guy until he rubbed out a bunch of seed to her mouth.

Scene Four: Anal 101: Missy Stone, a cute gal in her twenties wearing blue jean shorts and a small top, was shopping at a Hustler store with shaven Tommy Gunn before they went to bed at home. Their discussion led to a candid exploration of anal sex, Missy apparently wanting to open her back door in this role playing scene (since she is well versed in the art of anal). Tommy relaxed her with some caresses and kisses, the clothing coming off and her talented mouth working on his cock very nicely to the generic music. The slow pussy pounding he gave her eventually led to the anal she craved, his semen drained onto her sweet little ass cheek when it was over.

Scene Five: Picture Perfect Pussy: Emma Heart, a very cute blond with a great ass, was up last in the movie with Eric Swiss. Emma has probably shot more movies than all the other ladies in the movie but she is in big demand these days thanks to her youthful appearance and sexy body. There was again little build up before she started inhaling his pecker, using her hand to gland abilities to warm him up before he reciprocated orally, fingering her on the leather chair to get her juicy. He drilled her relatively passive pussy well enough, Emma responding best on his lap where her wonderful ass bounced on his lap (as her dripping wet pussy was being filled), a modicum of chemistry between them seen. The pop shot went the entire length of her torso and head, the scene cut out too quickly but at least showing her engaging in some post coital play.

Summary: Barely Legal 94 by director Erica McLean for Hustler Video was decent enough compared to recent volumes in the series, the standard definition version of the movie meriting a rating of Rent It from me just as the better looking high definition Blu-ray made the ladies look substantially better but not enough to rescue the average replay value for me. In any case, as I am not the biggest fan of newcomers to begin with, your mileage may vary substantially so check it out if you have enjoyed the series to date. In short, Barely Legal 94 was populated with a bunch of old men banging younger gals with limited onscreen experience so if that works for you a whole lot, consider picking up a copy for your own hand to gland pleasure. If you seek out youthful ladies having sex with plenty of rough edges (let's face it, they just aren't as polished as more experienced performers), you may well think this is a great title to get and spending the extra money for the high definition version or the still-fetching standard version is not the worse way you could go to upgrade your spank bank collection, it just lacked enough material compared to other titles to stand above the pack.
