In SEX BOTS: PROGRAMMED FOR PLEASURE, Professor Nolan Keller(Brad Armstrong), a Scientist at Real Doll Industries, has, for the last decade worked on a Top Secret project called "EVE".  The purpose of EVE, is create the world's ultimate "companion" droid.  The program excelled when Keller and his team, discovered a genetic mutation, which allowed them to produce a life-like outer skin.  From there, Keller continued on, rendering the perfect droid in the "Asa Doll"(Asa Akira).  After years of development, It is now the day before Keller is to release his ultimate creation onto the world, but first, he decides to give her one last test run.  He activates the droid for sex, which she soon complies with, just as she is programmed to do.  But unfortunately, the otherwise hot round of sex between the Scientist and his creation, leads to something going terribly wrong.  The sex is so hot and heavy, that it causes the "Asa Doll" to malfunction, and soon she goes haywire, as she displays an insatiable hunger for "more" sex.  It is just too much for Nolan to bare, as the "Asa Doll", literally fucks him to death.  However, in an act of desperation, Keller is able to hit the panic button, shortly before his death.  This puts the lab on lockdown, and sends 8 security technicians into motion, as they attempt to shutdown the sex-craving droid.  But, as we would find, even they are no match for temptation, as they too, fall prey to the Asa Doll's sexual allure.  From there, as the doll craves more and more of what she was made for, Asa takes on the guys, as part of a 9 person gangbang.  This would have been enough for any woman to handle, however, being an ani-bot - she was built for it.  Still instilled with the craving, and the urge for sexual pleasure, The "Asa Doll" soon discovers 2 other droids(Jessica Drake and Stormy Daniels), which are very much like her.  Once activated, the 3 droids waste no time getting down to what they are programmed to do best, as the partake in a monumental three-way.  In the end, after all 3 find pleasure, and with no Scientists in sight to stop them, they wander into the unknown, that is the outside world, to hopefully spread pleasure - one person at a time.

She leaves her bumbling convict brother "Ricky"(Tommy Pistol) in charge for the weekend, however, it would seem that Corey would have been better off being left by himself. Because as soon as "Uncle Ricky" arrives, he already has riled up the new neighbors(Olivia Austin and Marcus London), and soon, an encounter with a Hooker named "Honey"(Keira Nicole) at the liquor store, which he brings home, results in more trouble, when she and her boyfriend make out with a seemingly expensive necklace belonging to Corey's mom.  After the event, panic sets in for Corey and the rest of them, as they are not sure how they will replace the necklace, that is surely irreplaceable.  That's when Uncle Ricky comes up with a brilliant plan: to throw a weekend house party, one that would of course, charge an admission fee to get in.  Ricky sees it as a great opportunity to make fast money, as he calls on his Cuban pal, the eccentric "DJ Pinto" to oversee the jams at the party.  Initially, Corey is reluctant, but eventually, he gives in when he believes that he has no other option.  The party at first is a smash, as he looks to finally hook up with a girl that he likes, named "Elise"(Casey Calvert).  However when those plans don't pan out, it would appear that he finally comes to his senses, ending up with Katrina(Edyn Blair), the girl who's been there for him all along.  But not before the raucous party is busted up and the "Weekend to Remember" comes to an abrupt end with some hilarious results.

Movie Review: Killing Spree (1987; SRS Cinema)

...way too easy...yes, folks, it's way too easy!! Way too easy, these days, to meander through the specializing websites, find that rare and obscure underground cult film from days gone past, click on 'pay', and wait a relatively short time for that cult film goodness to make it's way to the mailbox. Hardly the patience-testing chore that it once was...say, back in the window of opportunity of about mid '80's to mid '90's, when the Internet was in it's infancy, and considered pretty much exclusive 'geeksville' territory. Oh, yes...those splashy one-page ads, in one's favorite horror magazine (...oh, thank you, Fango, for taking a chance on those)...with the advertising, creatively barnstorming the small-time, minor-league video distributor and it's enticing wares...said advertising, taking up a good chunk of the overall cost of whatever film it was toting; oh heck, sometimes there wasn't even an advertisement, to that full-blown extent...just a mere squeak of a few words, tucked away in the back-paged classifieds. But oh, for the purveyor of shoestring budgeted, independent cinema, those 'few words' stood out and shone like gold...well, make that 'gold' that's been dipped in maggot-populated putridity, and reeked of still-festering 40-year old snot from a 20-year old corpse...

Movie Review: The Young Like It Hot (1982) and Sweet Young Foxes (1983)

Directed by Bob Chinn (uncredited)

Movie review by Greg Goodsell

The camera's in focus, the colors are luscious and the girls are all pretty – kind of sort of. It's as good as it gets for the twilight of Golden Age Porno. Both The Young Like It Hot and Sweet Young Foxes were released just before video killed the porno star. This Video Syndrome pairing will send lots of old perverts waxing nostalgic – among other things! – as well as younger folk, late to the party of filmed flesh.

The Young Like It Hot concerns a small telephone company and the randy lads and lasses who keep it running. When the operators' jobs are threatened with automation, supervisor Hyapatia Lee – long brunette locks and legs up to here, tells the gals to give their customers a more “personalized” service. This entails  handing out lots of specious bedroom techniques to couples on the other line. There is also lots of lame comedy. A construction worker (Joey Sivera) asks blonde bimbo switchboard jockey questions about electrical wiring. “I don't know anything about electricity, but my boyfriend always told me that I light up a room!” Har-de-har-har. The bimbo's advice – “Choose the yellow wire! Such a positive color!” leads to near fatal accidents and unbridled hilarity.

Women play with their pussies, get eaten out, suck dick, fuck – everything ends happily!

The extra for this film on the Vinegar Syndrome DVD is an interview with porno stalwart Bill Margold – and what a raconteur he is! I've met the gentleman in person and he can spin a yarn, I tell ya … well, anyway, he talks about his part in the film as an obscene phone caller. The scene indeed is a rarity: a solo male masturbation in a heterosexual porno. The story is simple and unadorned, Margold did as he was told – some of his filthy talk was appropriated by the character of the like-minded Paul, played by the late Paul Seymour Hoffman in Todd Solondz' Happiness (1999)! – and he was later informed years later by a college student that his scene was a positive influence on his overall social development. Whatever.

Sweet Young Foxes has even less plot: Three rather mature college

Again, women play with their pussies, get eaten out, suck dick, fuck – everything ends happily! Familiar fleshy appendages belong to such fuck film favorites as Cara Lott, Ron Jeremy and Kay Parker are all trotted out with cheerful abandon!

The extra for Sweet Young Foxes is an interview with porno director extraordinaire Bob Chinn, who comes off as a nice, normal, workaday guy pressed into the skin trade. He relates how his wife had to wait until their children went to bed before she could bang out scripts on the kitchen table for the next day's shoot. Chinn's interview ends abruptly, when he admits that he just got sick of the porn business. 

Vinegar Syndrome has done their usual exemplary job of creating a sparkling transfer for these long-in-the-tooth one-handers. The colors are beautiful and the photography is way above the norm for projects of this type. There's no real reason to pass up on these sweet young foxes, so if this is your thing – dig in!

coeds in a luxurious home have the summer in front of them following their freshman year (Lee) and decide to get laid as much as possible.

(This just in on the Vinegar Syndrome web site -- this edition was limited to only 2,000 copies -- and is already sold out!)

Picking up 3 years after the last film, THE SUBMISSION OF EMMA MARX: BOUNDARIES finds the character of "Emma Marx"(Penny Pax) settled comfortably within her alternative BDSM lifestyle with Mr. William Frederick.  When we last saw them, they entered into a part time agreement, however now we find, that things have gone full time, as Emma is now William Frederick's full-time "Sub". The two now living together in a house that they purchased together, still play by strict rules.  Rules which Frederick sets.  Emma, must always be in submission to him, even when he is not there, must also wear what he chooses for her, as well as keep her body looking just right.  In addition to, she must accept and complete all challenges given to her, or else be punished. It even goes as far as her having to ask for his permission to sleep with him.  The rules are definitely out of the ordinary, however, it is the lifestyle that they live, and it is a lifestyle that Emma is comfortable with - that is until one of Frederick's challenges approaches another one of Emma's personal boundaries.  Like last time with anal sex, Frederick proposes something that Emma would never do.  And what is it this time?  A threesome.  It is a topic of discussion, which overlaps into her "regular" life, as her sister "Nadia"(Riley Reid), and her husband, now of 3 years, "Ray"(Van Wylde), have ventured to try BDSM, however, Nadia is turned off by bringing someone else into the picture, when Ray suggests it.  She just won't have it. And it is Nadia's rejection that has Emma thinking long and hard about her situation at hand.  Frederick gets Emma to open up about a little crush that she has on the new guy at the office, "Shane Covington"(Logan Pierce), with whom, he eventually proposes they engage in a three-way with.  Penny is initially appalled by the idea, as she does not wish to stray away from the exclusive relationship she shares with Frederick, however, Frederick's intimidation factor is enough to make the reluctant Penny, send out a few "feelers" to Shane in the form of notes at work.  Small notes that are rather intimate in nature.  She tells him that she has masturbated at the thought of him, and follows that up with asking him if he has ever thought about fucking her.  She even slips him a pair of panties at the encouragement of Frederick.  It is just another thing which takes her further out of her comfort zone.  However, little did she know that her relationship with Frederick would be later, further tested, when someone else enters the picture.  William Frederick's first "Sub" - "Audrina Whitman"(Sara Luvv),  It is an arrival that makes Emma extremely jealous, as it would appear that the relationship between she and Frederick slowly begins to unravel.  Why is it that Frederick is spending time with an ex-associate?  And why is it that he mysteriously leaves the house late at night, and mornings.  All of these questions are answered as Emma Marx continues her journey into the alternative and unpredictable world of BDSM lifestyles. As Emma and Frederick making adjustments to their exclusive agreement, it all concludes with boundaries being crossed at long last.

In THE SUBMISSION OF EMMA MAX, "Emma Marx"(Penny Pax) is a college student, who has never found love, or even had a steady relationship to speak of, despite seemingly everyone else around her, finding something or someone, who make them happy.  This includes her roommate and sister, "Nadia"(Riley Reid), who has just gotten engaged to her boyfriend, "Ray"(Van Wylde).  No, it would seem that Emma doesn't have time for relationships(although she longs for love), as she keeps herself busy with such things as school assignments.  And it is such an assignment that we find her working on, when the story truly begins.  The assignment is a Masters thesis on equality in the workplace.  It is such a project for which she has interviewed a number of sucessful business people, but it is not until one February morning, as Emma recalls(via the film's narration), that things take a rather interesting turn, when she chooses to interview one William P. Fredrick.  Her reason for wanting to interview Fredrick, is for the fact, that as an owner of a successful company, she is startled to find that out of all of his employees, 97% of them are female.  Hoping to grab some insight, she begins to quiz Fredrick.  However, she is is quick to take note of his arrogance, and abundance of self confidence.  They are two qualities that might very well turn most away, but for Emma, it only intrigues her. Although Emma comes away from the meeting with possibly more questions than she had going in, the two part ways on a very admirable note.   From then on, Emma just cannot stop thinking about the mysteriously intriguing man, whom she has met.  However nothing his heard from him until one day, a telegram arrives at her door.  It's from Fredrick, who gives Emma specific instruction not to contact him until after she's graduated - and should she follow the rules, at that time, she will be given special information, regarding an opportunity that he promises will be unique.  The proposal puts Emma even for on edge, as she often pleasures herself at the thought of the man, and his mysterious "opportunity".  What can it, be?  she doesn't know.  But what she does know, is that graduation, which is 4 months away, could not come any sooner.  Fast forward in time a little, and the day finally arrives.  And on that day, she receives an envelope, mailed to her by Fredrick, which contains, both a set of instructions, as well as some paperwork, in which she is to sign.  The instructions tell her specifically what to wear, and what time she should arrive at the address which he has also provided.  And the paperwork?  A non-disclosure agreement, to be signed between the two. She quickly discovers that the location in question is Fredrick's lavish mansion, and that the paperwork is an agreement to engage in a BDSM relationship with him.  It is something that is scary at first thought to Emma, yet she eventually agrees to it, as well as its stipulations, as she slowly puts her guard down and dives into the experience.  It is an experience that would soon change her life.  After giving into temptation, she is hooked. But that's not before making some alterations in the relationship of her own.  She wants a job at Fredrick's company as well as a set rate salary. Fredrick agrees to her desire, on the condition that the two be able to extend their BDSM practices into the workplace.  So during the week, Fredrick has her during office hours, while on the weekend, she's all his at his place.  It's a relationship that seems to work out - Fredrick sets the rules and boundaries, and Emma follows them.  It takes some getting used to on her part, but soon Emma falls into the routine. In reality, she enjoys being dominated by the man, who she refers to as "Mr.Fredrick" immensely.  So much so, that she opens herself up to things she said she's never do - such as anal sex.  As Fredrick continues to push Emma Marx to her limits of both pleasure and pain, Nadia becomes suspicious of her sister's secret sexual activities, which nearly cause Emma to abandon them altogether. But as she attempts to stray from him, she finds that the temptation in which Fredrick ignites within her is just far too strong, and that her interpretation of love and happiness simply differs from the norm.

Movie Review: Wrinkles (2014)

Oh boy. It’s another social commentary movie. I’m trying to stifle my anger before going into this but I make no promises NOT to be a crotchety old woman (which is ironic considering this is an film about old people).

Based on the graphic novel by Paco Roca, Wrinkles is an animated film that begins with Emilio, a senior citizen who is put into an old folks home by his son and daughter-in-law. He’s been pretty independent his whole life and now must adjust to the communal regimented existence of a retirement home. His roommate, Miguel, and fellow inmates Antonia, Delores, and Modesto become his new circle of friends.

It's murder and mystery in FAMILY SECRETS, one of the latest releases from VIVID and co-writer/Director Kimberly Kane.  When the body of a young woman named "Vicky Valentine"(Penny Pax) is found washed up on a San Francisco beach, the procedure is not unlike others that Detective "Jean Carver(Kimberly Kane), Detective "Jim Valentine"(Steven St. Croix), and their team seem to face regularly.  However, things are different this time around, seeing as Vicky Valentine just so happen to be Jim's stepdaughter.  So, it is because of this, that the Detectives proceed into the case with extra caution.  The film goes on to display several interrogations, which begin to slowly reveal details regarding the night that Vicky was last seen alive.  Detective Carver begins the case by interviewing the last 3 people known to have been seen with her the night that she was killed.  First, it is her best friend, "Donna"(Claire Robbins), and then "Rick"(Richie Calhoun), a friend of Vicky's, whom we learn is a painter, and the lastly, her stepbrother, "Jesse"(Danny Wylde), all of whom offer varying accounts.  But there is one thing for certain, that all 4 of them did meet up at a night club called Dante's on the night in question.  It's what happens afterward, that things become a little sketchy, as each give stories that differ.  Donna says that the last time that she saw Vicky, was when she found herself distracted by a striking female at the club.  She last saw Vicky dancing with Rick and Jesse.  While Rick on the other hand, although in possession of Vicky's locket necklace, swears to have seen her go off to the beach with a strange man, shortly before later leaving for the man's hotel room.  However, it is Jesse's confession of the events that night later, that truly blow the pending investigation wide open.  It is when Jesse reveals that both he and Rick had sexual relations with Vicky on the night she died, that family secrets, much more deeper than sex between step-siblings, begin to a emerge.  They are the kind of secrets that will tear everyone involved in the investigation apart at the seams.
